This is good, amazingly good.
And we should not loose heart nor confidence -
I do not think, just because something borders on the unfathomable that it should not be explored. The whole point of study and reason is to define and resolve through theory and ideas possible explanations - This is...
OK, So much for self-discipline - I tuned in, in the end!!
I'm going to put that episode in the rear view mirror -'nough said.
Pour myself a stiff one and celebrate -
Happy Shana Tova!!!:D
Ha Ha Ha,
The creativeness of the Italians - Calati, Junci ... La china la passa!! - Meglio commandere che fottere!! - I married one:).
I'll excuse myself from the audience tonight, think I'll watch the soprano's instead.
A dopo,

I am going to close out on the devil and god stuff - but there was one thing I have omitted, that I thought should be included -
There is an entity that exists everywhere where humanity treads.
It doesn't have a perspective of whether it's good or evil and is present in both.
It is...
I read a case a few months ago, somewhere in the country -

Now, I suppose you could argue that he was under the influence of drink and drugs - however they had the conscience to make the decision to be able to record is...
TC,
I completely agree,
But the point here is not to be rational -
In the previous thread we assimilated intelligence as a human definition to "god" of benevolance and comfort (myself included, understanding the scientific context but being drawn towards the personal).
Although the poll...
If there is some agent advancing creation - then why cannot there be an agent retracting creation? Matter vs Antimatter - in a sense.
Isn't it strange when we think about the devil we look for a human definition - but when we account for god we can extend it to encompass the larger world and...
I knew something was missing!!
I don't like the use of "fluke" in the question 4. Since it is a word that can emotively condition the audience - but I would like to replicate the antonym poll previously to get most out of this.
Thanks - Live at the witch trials
I think we now need to elaborate on Power and Control - My definition of power is this .... "the ability to influence people"
There are 3 forms of power/control
Hard power - Military doctrine where you force people to do something.
Soft power -...
The previous posts have raised a few interesting points that I want to address.
Live at the Witch Trials:

OK - Let's use a bit of intellectual hardwork (bearing in mind, I am not trying to erode any religion in so doing). All...
No, I still think this viewpoint is half baked.
I have been at football matches where huge crowds have ignited altercations between one another - not because of religion (the religions are mixed), not because of a political reaction (sport) but because simply there are two groups which wear...
I need to emphasize a few points, to detach from lennonist romanticism -
Religion does not cause/is not the root behind wars/violence out there it's just a vector that can be used to support it.
The troubles in Northern Ireland are not caused by people arguing over there interpretation of...
ON ECCLESIASTICAL PRINCIPLES:
It is true, religion has and continues to be seized by political aspirations to commit violence and do bad in the world.
However, we often neglect its attributes of doing good.
Religion is behind the current legal system in nations - the 10 commandments have...
ON ECCLESIASTICAL PRINCIPLES:
Religion has been utilised throughout the history of mankind as a tool of control. From my own religion (roman catholicism) the nature of its beginnings eminated from the collapse of roman empire itself and borrowing the judeo idea of the monotheistic entity...
Without any doubt, there is intelligent design at work - the intricacies of the natural world and chemical interactions that take place baffle even our most intelligent proffesionals - we have only just begun to understand the intelligent processes that are acting every second in the molecular...
Gene - Any chance of putting out there a tutorial or example of how to make a post more attractive.
Some of the posts submitted just look like a block of text which although may contain interesting material just make you want to glaze over em'.
Space it out a bit!!
Big brother - Lipstick and pigs and pitbulls?
It's hard not to make a mistake and organise publicity stunts when everbodies watching.
I totally agree he did screw it up a bit, my fellow Hibernian.
I also agree that he is one of the better politicians out there.
You could download "ad infineum" also "ad nauseum" - ask yourself what do you want out of listening to these audio streams?
Question?
1. Entertainment of the "UFO" paranormal.
2. Don't care - just bored -doing porridge.
3. Greater understanding of the "UFO" paranormal.
Answer.
If you...
Derek,
There is a lot going on here in this conversation - Technology, Enterpreneurship, Telepathy?
In this modern world I think we put too much emphasis on ourselves -
Technology: - We often assume (arrogantly) that most of our technology/creative thinking is a function of our human...
