Philosophies...
Philosophies are Religions without an Absolute. Philosophy is malleable and always unsure. Philosophy is an attempt at diversity thru intellect. Philosophy is the unguarded twin of Religion, without a Temple, without the faithful... a vagabond on the landscape seeking that which lies beyond religiou...

Understanding nothing and more
Whenever I hear a person say that they don't believe in god, I wonder what they imagine god to be. It may be that there is nothing there and that is why they don't believe. But that is precisely what god is: no thing. Now, I don't mean to say that since god is nothing that it is meaningless... quite...

Re: Does it Matter
After 15 years plus has passed, is it not to the benefit of the world to continue moving forward..? Anniversaries are fine but to continue dwelling on that which is no longer benefits nobody but the enquirer.Pluto wrote:Does it matter if the official explanation for the attacks on 9/11 are false?

A bit of Einstein
Einstein Einstein: "People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." Interesting comment... past, present and future, where present may be interpreted as 'now' which it certainly could be construe...

Re: Careful! They are Words
Surely you jestyiostheoy wrote:All poems should rhyme.
That should be a law everywhere.
Jail time if you violate it.
poetry is not the best

as a song for the ears
and not for the mind.
