The first thing to be done is redirect monies that go to the churches of the world to go directly to feeding and educating those children. The first institution to fall should be the Vatican. Sell off all their assets and use the monies to help find cures for those diseases.
have I upset you, the discussion was in regard to the objective and subjective mind, not the exploitation of the planet. what has the subjective mind, to do with that. dont hate anybody, however can dislike, but hate is to strong, no man is worthy of hate. how so. a mind reader to what. you said I said so in answer to that statement, "the non religious, are the more pure."
of course i will get pissedoff if you accuse me of 'ramblin on' when realliy its you not gettin me. better you say you dont understand? i am saying that you cannot have objectivity without subjectivity, right? if you believe you can is when the one-sidenes and trouble begin. if you see/understand and treay Earth, Nature, etc like an object without subjectivity is when you EXPLOIT it.....which is what is going on yo seem to be confused and wonder what tis has got to do wit 'religion'? well if you cared t research intopatriarchal interpretation of religion you will know tat tey also denounce Nature and dream of some spiritual realiy. ie., thy are being more so SUBJECTIVE--also sides so both belief systems, the patrirchal religios and scinetific materialist are like mirror refelctons of each oter. both one-sided, and oppressive
duendy, I have never once said, that you should only rely on your objective side, all I said is one should have dominion of the other, thus you will act according to whats right, for you, and not what other may say or do, take nobodys word for anything find out for yourself.(in my case objectivity take president over my subjective side.) I agree there are people who are single minded, either on the objective side or the subjective, they do tend to stamp there feet and say my ways the right way, dont we call these type of people fundys or zealots, however that is the foolish standpoint, better to be open minded, is it not. PS there does seem to be an awful lot of these people, in public office, dont you think.
duendy, spirit and matter are one. i've become a god now, i'm so happy! will you too become? life is a paradise. i always was god... i had just forgot it. that's why... those who fall in love... they often feel like... they've met. of course i've met... myself... god.
That is a problem too broad to attribute to religion. The exact same thing can be said about political views. The US has a view of democracy that other countries are resorting to war to keep that political view from spreading to them. Max
In many ways "advancement" is a sham. We only need to advance because of the bad effects of previous advancement. There are many things I wish to remain ignorant of; the lives of the creatures I ate, the problems of every single person, the mites that live in my eyelashes... Science itself has come upon a limit of it's understanding. The positions of sub-atomic particles can only be estimated as probabilities. Uncertainty may be something we just have to live with.
religion is for dumbasses who like to like to follow the trend rather than people who go against the norm and decide against a religion
If there are only two choices--go with the norm and go against the norm, and both options are being chosen--then regardless of which you choose you are following a trend. I guess that a third possible choice would be to be completely and utterly original, but that is beyond human ability, and therefore not a plausible choice.
no it's not. to be orginal just means to see thru te tired old game of the literalist religionists versus the scientific materialistsand vice versa
