Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
The “mass man” that Ortega y Gasset writes about is a phenomenon of our present, and we are all a part of it or subsumed in it. I wish I could find the words to express how little I care, and that desire makes me realise how important not caring is to me. It seems I do have a purpose, after all. 🙂 ...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
You can find meaning in anything if you are determined to find it. All the grandeur, ceremony and ritual of the Catholic Church is a massive con trick that's meant to give the impression of substance to what should never have been thought of as more than the superstitions of primitive tribe folk. T...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
In which case, if we are indeed "created in God's image," then where do you see the presence of a "trinity" within the makeup of the human form or soul? If I am not mistaken theologians have various ways that they describe the trinity, and I think you would agree with me that th...

Re: What is tolerance?
In Afghanistan no problem would arise because the cheating wife would be stoned to death. Hurrah for those noble Afghanis! How courageous of them! After all, the Holy Quran approves, and, more important, so does godelian. Look, you've obviously tried many different men, but they have all walked out...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
What sort of idiot is going to sign up for that? :? The wunnerful think about you, dear Harbal, is that you present us with the type of man who is constitutionally incapable of understanding, much less giving assent to, any notion of relationship to or service to higher being, metaphysics, higher t...

Re: Christian Civilization -- The Central Issue
I still have no idea what is actually being suggested. As a starting point the transformation and restoration presented as possible involves reforging a life-line with and a connection to divinity (metaphysical being), both as a concept and as a realness that one — what is the word? — submits to or...
