  1. Its one of the first expressions of 'soul' * , an ability that no other species seems to exhibit and makes us distinctive . * in a psychological / anthropological context , not a religious philosophical one .
  2. yes, it can seem that way and sometimes I feel like that . But if there isnt an afterlife and this one life is all we get , that just makes it more precious, important and wonderful ... dont waste you time guys ! It might be the only one you got . And considering and meditating on that , one might even eventually be able to add 'ecstatic' to one's list of 'appreciations' .
  3. No . It sounds like one giant hassle to me, even though I am better placed than most for such a scenario .... I am very comfortable at the moment . Civilization can collapse all it wants ..... after I am gone .
  4. Trade ... and the collapse of 'civilisation as we know it ' .
  5. Jesus in India ( Himalayas)

    and usually when someone quotes me there is text in the quote box .
  6. Art is dead.

    Perhaps it is a trend in the mainstream . If you are tired of shoot 'em up bang bang car chase shock horror fuck .... try some cinematic art from a newcomer in the field . It won't catch on, of course .....' they' tagged it as a 'comedy ' - WTF ? Tonga's first feature film ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YubsB8SzWjc
  7. Jesus and Mohammad

    It may not be 'safe' to ask me anything .

    So, that's what happened to those missing bits !
  10. The bible, OT and NT

    A miracle, by definition, does not even exist , unless there is some type of evidence for it .... More 'Danialisms ' . Not until now ..... apparently .
  11. Greetings! Question about the Fall of man and infancy

    My friend was telling me last month about her daughter when she was four . Her husband and daughter's dad had just died . They went through a lot but it was so intense and busy she had not really had time to grieve . Then a bit later they went for a walk in the forest, my friend said she could feel it welling up inside her and she couldnt stop it. She ended up lying on the ground and " ... I cried so much my tears made a puddle of mud and I was lying there with my face in it unable to move starting to bubble and breathe the mud into my mouth and nose ." Her daughter sat by her stoking her for over a half hour saying " Dont worry Mummy , Daddy is dead now but that just means he is everywhere ... he is in the forest, in the air and the ground and he is inside us too . Dont worry , I will stay with you . " She said she eventually came out of it and her daughter led her by hand back to the car . There are a few amazing little kids around here , sometimes I have the pleasure of minding them . Another friend lives near a caravan park by a river . Relatives visited and after a bit they noticed the 6 yo boy was missing . They went searching , he had been gone about 20 mins . In that time he had wandered the caravan park, made friends with two old guys , one lent him some fishing tackle , another some bait , he went down to the wharf and another old guy had shown him how to bait and cast .... and he had 3 fish in the bucket !
  12. How do you personally meditate?

    ... but have you buried the shoe box with the money in it in your back yard yet ?
  13. Jesus in India ( Himalayas)

    Well raid and run is easiest ; the groups of IE that did that via horse , later 'Mongols' also a large part of Viking culture via ship . I'd have to go deeper into anthropology and archaeology to tag accurately the 'good guys ' but generally they where elements within those cultures that we tag by their teachings, principles and laws . Coming into Central Asia is rather vague , coming out , east and west is mostly via Zoroaster and Miwoche and their associated cultures .
  14. How do you personally meditate?

    That one you wrote about ; " ..... He did made me join his cult with help of black magic, where we harras people for their faith and for their faith only of course, (because we are biased and accademics can be wrong (but fictonal Moses cannot)). "
  15. well, now you have insulted ducks ! ... poor ducks .
  16. Jesus in India ( Himalayas)

    Yes but, if even a parrot could cite those references it would still prove that the Bible talks about eternal damnation .... wouldn't it ? So I wondering what your objection to references about eternal damnation in the Bible is about ? Do you really think they are not in there ?
