Is Santa Claus the mockery of Saint Nicolaus?
I will disagree, commercialization with its promotion of buying is an aspect of modern christmas but there is much more to this myth than the commercial or of some saint who could resurrect three butchered children. This myth weaves in magic, hope, peace and wonder. It draws from multiple...- Bear Wild

Is Santa Claus the mockery of Saint Nicolaus?
The Santa Claus of today may owe his name to St. Nickolas and both may have a reputation of giving gifts but beyond that they share little resemblance.- Bear Wild

Summer
unfortunately, when summer is over. Since living in Texas, I find I long for fall. It becomes so hot here that I can only be out early in the morning or after sunset. This year has not yet become terrible, but the severe heat will come. In my past when I lived up north summer meant swiming in...- Bear Wild

Schiff pulled the pin
It is complicated and I do not know all that is occurring behind the closed doors. What they need to do is have an honest meeting and what ever the decision they make they all need to stand behind.- Bear Wild

Schiff pulled the pin
The problem is that Biden did help the economy and in my opinion much better than Trump could but most Americans are not rational enough to comprehend it when they feel it is harder to make ends meet. It is the same problem with climate change. The information is their but most are only reacting...- Bear Wild

Schiff pulled the pin
In a way the Democrats questioning of themselves is a far more healthy response than the all bow down to our savior in the republican party. Of course some of those republicans like the way Putin is in control so eliminating any republican opposition within the party makes sense to them- Bear Wild

In normal times that would be true. But since the creation of the republican cult of trump nothing is normal. This could be the one time that most people do not want to through ground hog day again with the return of the biden trump election/rematch round two including me.- Bear Wild

God is a woman
The goddess/god made everything in her/his image. Plants, animals, rocks and clouds. All are of the divine and all are sacred. So that would also include the masculine of the god and the feminine of the goddess to be divine since they both are.- Bear Wild

Ego
The problem with this has to do with the words themselves as concepts. You have ego as presented by Freud who first used the term, ego as presented by his student Carl Jung, and a variation of ego to a variety of people. Freud placed it in-between the id and superego as a hierarchy. Jung placed...- Bear Wild

Trump picked 39 year old Ohio sen J. D. Vance as his VP
Now he is ready to join Hitler, I mean Trump. He can now prosecute all people involved with abortion as murderers. And best of all he will correct all of the scientists who have made the horrible error of worthless claim of climate change. Now he can help Trump to Drill Drill Drill. I wonder if...- Bear Wild

Ego
The ego is necessary it is the identification of self. To function in a complex world including dangers then self is important as long as it is not ego alone. Even Jung warns that to completely lose the ego one can get to lost in the sea of the unconscious. In most initiation processes such as...- Bear Wild

Trump as King Arthur
General Patton actually respected veterans. He was tough on soldiers but respected those that sacrificed for our country. Trump does not. Yes he will move his fingers to sign and give money that is not his. That is very different than someone who knowingly risks their lives in a war time...- Bear Wild

Trump as King Arthur
And insulted them. He does both and makes sure everyone knows he is the greatest president the world has ever seen. He has done more for veterans than all the other presidents put together since the beginning of this country and more for blacks than any other president ever. And yes I have heard...- Bear Wild

It's JD Vance for Trump
Except that any republican who criticizes trump must either remove themselves from the party in exile or bow down to the King. Critisim does not work well with trump. Ask all those he turned on.- Bear Wild

Trump as King Arthur
Trump has nothing that connects him with King Arthur. What in the world are you trying to say. King Arthur was trying to connect the Celtic Britain and trump wants to divide the US. This is actually an insult to the figure King Arthur so please explain this random nonsensical comparison.- Bear Wild

Atheists believe in miracles more than believers
You are so wrong about the Odessey, It is a myth of truth to the Greek people who celebrated this religion. It is full of wisdom if you know how to understand it. If you look for an absolute account of history then you missed its entire meaning. The gospels are myth to show relationship. Any...- Bear Wild

Atheists believe in miracles more than believers
If you are asking me, do I agree with the bible the answer is absolutely no. That mythology has nothing to do with me. Do I accept the mythology I use then yes, it is truth to me. The fairy tales carry powerful messages that was lost for so long. Carl Jung saw it but still remained on the...- Bear Wild

Water into wine: natural or supernatural?
It is a metaphor of transformation and not a story of actual conversation of water into wine. I am not Christian but one could easily see this as transforming the water into the same symbolic meaning as wine for instance. No grapes needed- Bear Wild
