This man summed it up very nicely. A human being is a part of a whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Lightspeed I'd very interested to know what you think Jesus would say if he were alive today and you could have a very short conversation with him.

My relationship with Christ is a personal relationship. What he speaks to me is about me and not of any real relevance to anyone else I don't think. If you want to know what Christ has to say, there are two places you can look. The Bible and your heart.

Pretty much, when you phrase it like you did.
Heart? Isn't that a power one of the kids had in Captain Planet? |
7th October 2006, 12:25 | #138 |
|
I guess so. I suppose I should recognize the Christian concept of a person's heart is not universally understood.

So there's the Christian conscience and the Christian heart, I'm wondering when you'll get your own Christian internet with brainwash powered tubes

You'll find many groups, clubs, organizations, areas of thought, fields of expertise use words is ways that relate specifically to their thing, with a meaning differing ( but usually relating to ) the dictionary meaning of the word.

Excuse me sir, I have a question.
What about the Christian Penis? What about my two tanks of Christian Jizz? |

The Christian Penis has the magical property of impregnation without penetration and +20 mana. Unfortunately this doesn't leave much room for fun, just babies, lots of babies.

I'm not familiar with that definition, however to me penis refers to the thing that slaps against my balls when I walk. I wear boxers y'see.

I've watched the first two episodes and they are very good. He did put me off slightly within the first few minutes when he said people believing in god belittles the elegant reality of the universe. That came across as arogant and the american minister called him on that attitude later on in the documentary. Richard has a long long way to go to change things but he has started which says the most. Its prity scary that people are afraid to speak out against faith. I am commited to helping him however but I'm afraid that science can not replace religion. How do you replace the concept of "love your neighbour" with science?
Watch this or read the text of the speech. Its a speech given by Ronald Reagan to the evangelical church in the states. This man was the leader of the "free" world at the time. This is how Bush thinks. http://www.americanrhetoric.com/spee...evilempire.htm |

not to sound arrogant, but i think you're attempting to replace religion with science, you don't have a great understanding of either.

I don't personally know whether Samael knows what he's talking about or not but given that he's not proposing his own theory but pointing to a more qualified authority it's pretty much beside the point isn't it? Unless Samael's trying to win teh intarweb single handed...

Maybe I am just swinging to the opposite extreme (raised christian, like many of us), and I am happy with the idea that my feelings will change with time. I don't mind being right at the expense of earlier wrongs - pride is a hinderance sometimes, and I try to avoid it. I suppose this is one thing that both science and a lot of religions agree upon

Joking aside, can you describe how Martin Luther Kings is relevant to this thread? The selfish gene theory doesnt directly, or indirectly for that matter, show humanity the way forward. There is no "way forward".

What world would I like to live in if religion didn't exist? Well, that one I would like to live in a world in which religion didn't exist. A caveat to my answer is that I would never attempt to ban religion, in fact I don't think I would allow it to happen either. I would actively oppose any attempt to ban it. I hate that I have to include that caveat. When I said that there is no "way forward", i wasn't talking about the passing of time either. I was talking about the direction
