Pissed off and insulted by overbearing arrogance is closer to it.. But what was I expecting, the Church industrialized moral arbitoring, they patented it and distribute moral axioms like they were jellybeans at a Saturday matinee.. The only authority they have is what they've given themselves, which means they have no authority at all. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

That must've been a blessed day for FrGamble. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Doesn't change the fact that the real Michael Cohen received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Russian oligarch, does it? Avenatti is on Rachel Maddow right now. He says the funds attributed to the wrong Michael Cohens (that the right wing media is using to try to discredit everything he released) account for less than 1% of the total funds listed in his document. What he released is 99.35% accurate. In school, that'd be an A+. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

I hope so, it was a liberating one for me. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Welcome to the club , FrG. It's a long and illustrious list, I think. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

| Wizard Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 239 Posts: 6095 | I'm getting way off topic here, but is there any member of this forum who can speak to any religion other than Christianity and Judaism? I have a genuine interest in learning about other religions and would be interested to start up a knowledge-seeking thread. Personally, I know a thing or two about Buddhism (although I keep forgetting how to spell it) but not nearly enough to lead an intelligent discussion about it. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

I've studied Buddhism on and off since 1970. It's about meditation and putting you in touch with who you really are. I'm especially interested in zen Buddhism, which is stripped down, cut to the chase Buddhism. Who are you, what makes you tick. It involves meditation and concentrating on questions that have no real answer, to make you see reality in a different way. Here's a typical zen story. Two monks are watching a flag flap in the breeze. One monk says 'Flag is moving.' The other says 'Wind is moving.' Just then the master comes along and says 'Mind is moving'. These stories are meant to point you in the direction of moving your attention inward, to yourself being the source of your reality. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
