    Who said anything about anyone losing? But now that we are talking about it, enjoy your loss.

    Question about spiritul progress

    This isn't a question of what reality is to be ignored or whatever. This is a question of what is the structure of reality itself. It's clear that Advaitins (regardless of their consideration of three "realities") utilize a framework were the latter realities are sublated into the uppermost...

    Question about spiritul progress

    Atomism is not antithetical to direct realism. It is one of the fundamental tenets of direct realism that mind-independent objects are made of matter, and I don't really see how direct realism is "refuted by science" considering that most metaphysicians (at least analytic ones) support it and...

    Why Do You Think You Will Know the Truth After You Die?

    I don't really know. I am not arrogant enough to believe that I have yet achieved mukti, and likely I won't in this lifetime. But I can try.

    Whenever someone says "Zizek" to me and I bash them on their head with my copy of Tractatus and recite Thomas Nagel papers to that person. Do I have a problem?

    Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika : An introduction

    Thanks! Most people who talk about Nyaya think that it's restricted to epistemology and logic which is just wrong and misguided. It's an entire philosophical system which possesses insights on everything from ethical theory to ontology. Who knows, one day we'll end up with political philosophy...

    Westernsplaining the scriptures.

    This isn't really addressing any of my criticisms of considering the Carvaka as Hindus though. As I pointed out, from what we know about the Carvaka (which is admittedly very little and corrupted by critiqued), they denied even the possibility of liberation since such a thing doesn't exist for...

    Question about spiritul progress

    Which again is an Advaitin concept of Absolute Idealism, which I don't believe in (Nyaya has a direct realist metaphysics!)

    Can anyone explain Death of God theology a bit more substantially to me?

    I am assuming this is linked to the concept of transvaluation, right? I am not all that well-versed with Nietzsche outside of McIntyre's criticisms of him and the genealogical tradition.

    Can anyone explain Death of God theology a bit more substantially to me?

    Death of God theology was a movement in post-war theology that focused on the idea that God had ceased to exist (how this had happened was considered differently by different people), not the standard incarnation, crucifixion and resurrection model of Christianity. Death of God movement |...

    Dying your hair

    I died a part of my hair shock blue once. It was not a good look.

    Can anyone explain Death of God theology a bit more substantially to me?

    Also, if someone can explain Boenhoffer's religion without God, it would be appreciated as well.
