1. No, I don't believe anything. Whatever is evidenced by my experience in life is what I know as the truth. Also, I find no value to rejecting things. If they are not for me there isn't much reason to trouble myself with it. It merely an exercise of chasing one's own tail.
2. No, but we are...
In the case of the translated text, it's mostly a matter of reading multiple translations. Eventually, you will get the message properly understood. There are, of course, many languages that have words that have multiple meanings (happens even in English), but that shouldn't be too much of a...
I'd say yes, but only because of my own life experience. :D
Essentially, Jesus was a prophet that they grafted into an avatar after Christians ran into other religions who had them and that simply wasn't good enough to make conversions. But, the truth be told, to me, all divisions are...
Science is generally ideologically motivated, and most of the leaps basically come as the old guard is replaced as they die off. But, Darwinism is completely unproven by the evidence. Yes, there are many cases of "DNA" being shared between species and so on, but this is like saying two things...
To me, we have no idea what the COVID situation will be November and really the decision has to be made somewhere near there. But, TBH, this is Trump trying to get Democrats to stop being so ridiculous with their restrictions. If work has to be shut down, school and a bunch of other things have...
Some people are just broken in this fashion, and even if they were subjected to a truly spiritual experience would deny it. But, I admit, if you've never had something you do not long for it or miss it, so I guess in this regard they have an advantage? :D
But, metaphorically it's like taking...
I neither care if they or right or I am? :D
It doesn't matter either way... If you enter the conversation for any other reason than helping the other person, you've already lost the only argument that mattered. At least in my view, lol.
The debunkers don't understand faith and religious...
It's not my business, it's Allah's to sort out.
But, that being said, I find many of the Muslims engaged conduct that I find repugnant and there is no excuse that is adequate. The impression is created by their own vices, to some extent, and that is on them to rectify. There is no excuse for...
Yes, I've especially noticed the two Hindu's don't agree on everything. Much to my dismay, lol.
Most of my readings have been in the commentaries of Adi Shankara, Ramana Maharshi, and even Swami Vivekananda. There is probably more written then I'll ever have time to read. :D
I do find science...
It goes on scales, but most people who are atheists aren't of the position that it would never change. Agnosticism is very much nebulous as well, but also incorporates the idea that it's "impossible to know". Generally, to me, agnosticism and atheism are extremely similar it's just atheism...
Depend on your concept of God, but if you think about it atheism as a concept doesn't directly refute the existence of God. They just don't believe in one. That doesn't address whether it's actually there or not, but rather that they find no reason to think so. Likewise, with "Satan", and things...
You're cutting the carbs way too much, sub-70 is really dangerous over prolonged periods of time. The size of your meal also doesn't matter, you can fill the plate with more meat or healthy fat-containing foods. You should try to get your energy needs off fat because it never causes the insulin...
You could get a ghetto SIM from another provider that supports the older phone maybe, but who knows if it's locked or not. If it's one of those "burner phones" it's probably locked. If it's one of those though you just might as well get one of the newer ones as they don't cost a hell of a lot in...
Which regime, the heavily democratic city-based regime that causes most of our trouble or the minorly annoying but ever ineffectual federal government? The choice between Republicans and Democrats is often no actual choice, but rather just voting against whichever one is the least crazy at any...
Eh, stuff always breaks, and people need people to manage break-fix/adds/moves/changes. The only person that believes you can't do it is you. The lockdown has made many competitors fold up, and that means opportunities will out-strip the labor. Someone who is good is always in demand whether...
