    Atheism is not a default position

    Not sure if somebody has already written this, because damn it, someone really should have. Agnosticism is the default. Agnosticism holds a completely neutral stance, where neither atheism or theism is considered correct. When you choose to believe or not believe (which honestly IS a choice...

    Homosexuality and yin-yang

    This makes sense to me. Do you believe it could be reasonable to argue, that biological sex could somehow be considered the polar opposite, not to the partner's sex, but to the partner's sexual orientation? I mean this in the way that a sexual desire towards males, for example, is paired with...

    Then you're not listening to what I'm saying. I don't believe in scripture as such, and the notion that "a man must not lie with another man as he lies with a woman" is not a thought that appeals to me.

    Homosexuality and yin-yang

    I consider myself a perennial philosopher, and believe in all religions according to my own interpretations of different religious philosophies with an, admittedly, bias towards Eastern religion, in particular buddhism and daoism. For the majority of my life, I have never considered...

    Rites Of Passage

    Nobleson99, please do discuss it. I became very intrigued in the community since I read about it just earlier today. It seems a bit silly to me, but that might be because I have not had it explained by a member of the community. Please tell me about it! Bear in mind, I am white, so I hope you...
