    Any potential here to better understanding Trump supporters?

    Why should it be presented as though Trump were elected when the true majority chose Hillary? Furthermore, I don't value Roseanne Barr's opinion on anything Trump because other statements of hers show she's just being a coward. She doesn't support Trump, otherwise she wouldn't have said in...

    Whoa, Pope says there is no hell!

    I don't think the Catholic view of hell has ever been as hard-lined as Protestant sects, has it? We see this in the Eastern Church more than the Western, but I can't see that the Church has ever been too specific on the finer details of hell. @Vouthon if you're tired of being everybody's...

    I find myself in an interesting place

    Funny because RF might be what helped bring on this crisis :p That's okay though. Maybe I need to grow. I come on too strongly sometimes, and I need to stop it.

    How is 'not accepting the act' a true acceptance of homosexuality?

    Do you understand why someone may see that as intolerant? Well I am glad you're tolerant toward non-Baha'i LGBT people. I also didn't know you had a son that is LGBT. I won't ask about your relationship. It's not my business. Whatever disagreements we may have- I am glad you support LGBT...

    Well here's something we agree on buddy ;) You know I see our head clashing as playful fun, right?

    How is 'not accepting the act' a true acceptance of homosexuality?

    Right, so what happens if they decide they want to seek fulfillment in a same-sex relationship? What happens if they find themselves really wanting that? Is that tolerated? If they do so?

    I find myself in an interesting place

    Thanks. I just don't want to go running to Hinduism off the bat- as though Hinduism is a small thing one can simply and easily jump into. That's why I identify as Seeker, and because this is my first major crisis of religion in my adult life. I may want to take this time to consider other...

    I find myself in an interesting place

    Yes true. I don't want to be simplistic and say there aren't other factors in my decision. I've been thinking about this for awhile.

    How is 'not accepting the act' a true acceptance of homosexuality?

    Wow what an interesting way of wording it. My choice to 'try to understand' OR 'stay with my own thoughts'. Isn't that how one tries to understand? Or do you think I decided I didn't agree with the Baha'i view in an instant and tossed it?

    Indications of Oneness in Basic Human Experience and Perception

    Well when I say Vedanta, I mean I've been considering the school that recognizes there can be difference in Brahman, but still unity: Bhedabheda. Or are you including that school in your rejection?

    I find myself in an interesting place

    Problematic in a small, but also big way. I find that the view that the seeming self is without substance is hard to accept because of how consciousness appears. That being said, I also understand the reasons the self sense can be misleading. I have always had a problem with saying that means...

    I find myself in an interesting place

    Yes I am aware of that. I actually understand Anatta quite well, I'm just not sure I find it too useful personally.

    Indications of Oneness in Basic Human Experience and Perception

    No this is a good point @Vinayaka. This is part of why I've been considering Vedanta more. I don't think I have it all figured out.

    Indications of Oneness in Basic Human Experience and Perception

    I didn't mean primitive in a bad way. That was probably bad wording.
