Of course, he's Jewish! >:O I think the two are not opposed, but supplementary to each other. Somewhat, but not "very familiar". I have his work "I an...
That is correct. But the truth - and this forum proves it - is that I don't "win" people at first at all. Quite the contrary, people often start by ha...
Yes, I had another account there, long ago. When I finally returned to create Agustino, I had forgotten about that one. Oh, I love playing with Sand >...
I never said her judgement is pathetic. And calling someone's comments stupid isn't an insult. If you call a comment stupid it's not the same as calli...
Oh yeah, it's wisdom, because you would be shamed if you accepted to play my game, and you know it. Right. It is indeed wisdom, the wisdom of a coward...
>:O I remember you had a different username, something like Threshold something. It was something starting with T at any rate. >:) Well after many yea...
Notice, that I for one take the world to be more truthful post-Trump than pre-Trump (that's one reason why I am pro Trump). This is because Trump does...
And how does the idea of Mithras arise? :s And by the way, the ancients relate to gods in a different way than you imagine. They prayed and offered sa...
Well, no, I don't think rape, etc. are okay towards the guilty. This doesn't seem to be what Nietzsche is saying at all either. This is just a non-seq...
:s No, I'm quite sure hell doesn't include rape, killing of innocents, etc. But the kind of cruelty that morality is and that you described in your pr...
https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/93150#Post_93150 That convo is just one example. If I spend 5mins digging through your posts I'll fi...
Yes I am actually aware he insulted you first, but this isn't the first thread where I've seen this behaviour of yours. So why are you doing it my man...
Man you should honestly press the break pedal with those insults before you get banned. Literarily every time I stumble across your posts, you're insu...
Yes, actually Mithras does represent an experience of the transcendent that was revealed to the Romans. My entire point is that such theophanies weren...
Okay, I finished it! It was good, I agree with Heidegger on quite a few issues there, so thanks for sharing. Just as a warning for other people, secon...
How can there be belief if there is no experience? I really don't understand what you mean here. The difference is quite easy to see for me at least, ...
You can consider the idea of God, but for that idea to arise in society and gain prevalence in the first place (so that you get to discuss it today), ...
I don't think Marx was wrong, except for the fact that he thought Communism would be a utopia, while I think quite the contrary. He was also wrong abo...
Yes, the macro-sense is what I'm talking about. You don't live in the micro world of your family, relatives, neighbours, etc. Thanks to technology the...
They act as idols, not because we are not conscious of them, but rather because we aren't conscious of them as what they are in their essence. And in ...
Oh, have you been reading Pseudo-Dionysus? That's good to hear! Sure, but even if you personally were a Christian, you lived in a non-Christian world....
Yes, that is because you do not understand God - God for you could be anything. Yes of course, because you are born after the loss of faith. You are b...
But really, you're saying nothing new. What you're saying is that God is dead - you cannot hear His voice anymore. Old news. We already know that we l...
Sure, but there is always the underlying experience of hearing. I agree that morality is cruel in the sense that you speak about it here. However, Nie...
That is not a fact (it would be if you stopped at not hearing the voice) it's an interpretation. But could it be that you do not hear because you have...
Yes He does. God has the greatest track record anyone could ever ask for. One is willing to suffer for God, because God suffered for us in Jesus Chris...
Neither do you know the general's intentions in the army. For all you know, he could have sold all of you to the enemy, so he is ordering you to simpl...
No, these are not a progression, but rather three different ways of being in the world. They are "moods" rather than paths. Kierkegaard's ultimate poi...
Tell me this. If you are in the army, and your general asks you to charge into the open fire of the enemy lines, what will you do? Will you cower in y...
We don't know how much time we have left to live. You say you have 60 more years - how do you know? A car could run you over, you could get an incurab...
God's commandments. Why are you afraid though? You must go into this fear. Why are you really afraid of hell? Why are you really afraid of suffering? ...
My expression means to show you that God is the source of morality. That is why Nietzsche and Dostoyevsky were right: if there is no God, then everyth...
Yes, in my first response to you I laughed, because you brought up child labor and racism out of nowhere. So equally out of nowhere I said that at lea...
Yes, and his rebellion would be no different than the rebellion of the very first rebel, Lucifer. The rebellion of someone who becomes so proud and th...
Please acquire this large ignoramus hat, it would make for an excellent gift! And no I never said I prefer periods of great racial discrimination over...
