    Is humanity in need of more spiritual universalism?

    What makes you say Baha'i and Sufis are universalist?

    A new quaker with some questions...

    Well, keep it quiet till you're 18 then, if there is no real dialogue to be had with her about it. Unless maybe she would be receptive if you told her what the Quaker meetings are actually about.

    It is time to revise the Methodology of Science

    You and all your second cousins have identical ancestors when you go back three generations. It's kinda like that, but with all humanity.

    It is time to revise the Methodology of Science

    There is no such thing as mt-ACA. There is most recent common ancestor (MRCA), there is the ACA point and then there are mtMRCA and Y-MRCA, all of which are different things.

    It is time to revise the Methodology of Science

    Like, I can see why you follow the reasoning there, but actually a population is always a pool, and there would always have been multiple genetic lineages going on. Maybe look into the Identical Ancestors Point?

    Outside of Consciousness or Within Consciousness? (Mysticism DIR)

    I dunno y'know, I think there's traction to it. What we call a mystical experience can still be said to be bound in time and space. Limited. So I think it can still be termed an experience of a sort.

    Outside of Consciousness or Within Consciousness? (Mysticism DIR)

    By definition, I think an experience occurs within consciousness. But I guess what we call a mystical experience can be pointing us to what we are before we get into consciousness.

    Omnism Forum?

    Can you maybe give a one or two sentence description of what omnism is? It might align closely with other DIRs we have here already.

    Prophets and Mystics (Mysticism DIR)

    Surely it depends on the descriptive and associative habits you've built up? As for the OP - really depends what you call a prophet. One woman I saw once described a prophet as 'someone who speaks from the spirit', so yeah that's a mystic. But if it someone who is a channel for prophecy, then...

    OK, I retract the 'old'.

    Manchester University Student Union bans clapping?

    Hey no worries man, I wasn't. Wasn't even referring to anybody specifically.

    Manchester University Student Union bans clapping?

    I find it weird how people see this old story of the SU in Manchester and then characterise all young people, or the nation of Britain, by it.

    Why Doesn't The Qur'an Call God Yhwh?

    Well if something is really one, then it is not multiple. Attributes are multiple.

    Huge gap between humans and animals

    Chimps and other great apes are really similar to humans :)

    Two men doesn't make a mother

    But like, why support ANY party at all?

    Two men doesn't make a mother

    My question stands!

    Two men doesn't make a mother

    EF, why do you feel the need to support any political party at all, if the closest one you can find disagrees with you so much?
