  1. Because facts are cold comfort to a broken heart.
  2. They both have their hierophants.
  3. They both have belief sets. They both are ways to understand the world. And while it operating in different sphere they both assume their way is right.
  4. Facts/science are trumped by poetry/mythology, at least for me. https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/17908/whats-the-difference-between-weltanschauung-and-worldview
  5. Troy I believe you said that you either don't have time or don't care to edit your post. I had a few people comment that my post were sometimes unreadable. That was two years ago. In addition to not being your executive reader I am not your secretary. If you have neither the time nor inclination to be clear that's fine. It's is better for you, if I say what isn't clear. It is better for you and the forum if you were clearer. I guess it's more effecient to listen to a clip than to lookup up the info or even click the link about the author. Which didn't seem to be a problem for other people. I use to have a lot of typos and be a bit more cryptic. I have upgraded, I proof , post definitions and the etymological roots of words . I am also a bit more stringent in word usage and meaning. Now this doesn't mean that anyone has to take my definition but it does create a basis for understating. Or not.
  6. If you dont care to spend the time yo find out why ask me to spend my time. What you have written isn't very clear to me. If you have the time or the interest you may want to proofread your post.
  7. Because I think you should make up your own mind after reading the evidence. Plus I am not a executive reader Because I think you should make up your own mind after reading the evidence. Plus I am not a executive reader
  8. Cool I am all about people thinking for themselves.
  9. I am not always oppositional. I am just making a finer distinction. Some concepts can be validated.
  10. You can verify this simply by going to Ted.
  11. My sister is in Tampa.
  12. If a theory is analogous to a concept, it can be proven reasonably.
  13. I don't think it is possible to verify most information. Which is partially why I sat there are no facts.
  14. Objectivity is more elusive than thinking for yourself. At least it is for me.
  15. The choice is between doubting everything. Believing everything you've been told. (Thinking for yourself ) (Allowing others to do your thinking for you ).
  16. When I was ready my astrology teacher was looking for a student.
  17. not to me. clearly you and I are different.
  18. I think It's easier if you are a steward instead of an owner
  19. https://www.sheldrake.org/
  20. That's the point it is censorship. Scientists are overwhelmingly atheist and a bit smugly so. The scientific approach in religion would be agnostic. Also certain fields like religion , the occult and consciousness don't lend themselves to statistical analysis and science can't credibly discuss them. You studied astrology and came to a conclusion. Scientists find it contemptible because they have no theory to explain how it could work.
  21. I haven't had a listen yet.
  22. You may have misunderstood me. it's not making money that will get you killed. it's showing people that they matter. That's what got King and X killed .
  23. They did one for the US presidents. George Bush junior looks better as a woman.
  24. Was that the one with the alien sex slaves? If a term exists then it exists in some form.
