Marblehead Posted November 28, 2017 Yeah, a lot of Christians spoke about Nietzsche but their responses were always based on old dysfunctional thinking which is what Nietzsche was speaking against all the time. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To the contrary as my age grows my memory shrinks, but in turn the depth of understanding increases. And my reasoning is improved by the richness of experience. Kind of reminds me of the quote about LSD... I forget who said it, maybe Tim Leary: Â "LSD increases long term memory, makes short term memory worse... and I forget the third thing."

Marblehead Posted January 19, 2018 Good. I try hard to point out that my truths may not be anyone else's truths. Others probably make enough errors on their own without my help.   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
