Your arguments dont seem more solid than the those made by a logical positivist. Why do you assert that your reason is infallible and can interpret th...
One last thing you can ponder on in silence: Let us say that the burglur actually kills your wife. Perhaps you werent there. Will you hate him, perhap...

Havent you read the Sermon on the Mount? Or even Paul when he tells Christians not to repay evil with evil and hate? The dishonest thing is that you p...

Good, and if enlightened means what you claim; then I dont want that. I wonder who of us is right about the Words of Christ though. Regarding Nietzsch...
