A brief modification: I thought my father was God, Paul Auster The Holy man of Mount Koya, Izumi Ky?ka (? ??) Runaway horses, Yukio Mishima (?? ???)

There are two different sources of law: 1. Positive law: those laws which are approved and promote by the Congress and Senate thanks to the representa...

Good morning. It is 06:43 AM. It has rained this night and there is a refreshing smell of wet land in my room. Cloudburst in summer are the best :flow...

"Golden" as a characteristic has a deep connection to exclusivity and richness. Nevertheless, Mishima's point of view in his book "The temple of Golde...

We have reached 485 - 499 in Average national PISA score for reading. I am so happy. The previous years were catastrophic. Nevertheless, we still suck...

That's true. To be honest, I even think that trade unions (as we know it in Europe) do not exist in the USA at all. Probably, this is due to "Truman d...

I think it depends on the country we are talking about. Here in Spain trade unions are literally a way to promote socialism (or classwork-leftist doct...

I guess the main difference lies in polytheism vs monotheism. Back in the day, Roman and Greek empires were polytheist and had a different perception ...

It is true that Greek mythology and philosophy are different from each other in terms of reasoning and knowledge. Despite the fact that mythology coul...

Enjoyt it! It is a healthy and refreshing food! :clap:

It seems to be tasty! :razz:

LMAO! :rofl:

:up: :100:

:up: :100: Glad to know you know how to cook it. I have to buy it in Mercadona :rofl: (I guess you know about this market because you were in Spain al...

Has anyone taste Tzatziki? It is a refreshing Greek yoghurt sauce. It is so delicious when you eat it with sesame bread. https://es.openfoodfacts.org/...

I am 25 years old and yes they are too much for me. The first book I have read of him was four years ago, so I am following your path! It would be a u...

I respect it Tom :smile: thanks you because you always take part in my threads or discussions and I appreciate that

Yes! I see your point now. I like how you describe it as "call-oneself-into-question". Until we do not experience such state of mind we don't put ours...

Agree and interesting experience you have shared with us :up: :100:

I think "bonum" or "good" is related to ethics rather than aesthetics :chin:

Thanks for sharing. I would check it out later on :up: Interesting. You follow the thesis of Edmund Burke then. I respect it indeed. But I don't see w...

But we should not give up on objectively context. The paper I have read yesterday propose that there are some "supernatural" examples which we can con...

Interesting point of view and thanks for answering your aesthetic experience. But I think that even if we don't use the word "beauty", we all have lik...

What if there is not an answer after all? :chin:

One of the few worthy things of summer is iced green tea. Frosty, tasty and refreshing :up:

So you want an answer to something which is inevitable? We have to accept that we all have to die one day. Some would do it sooner or later than other...

... what? The problem we are discussing in this thread is that our votes do not matter or count at all. It doesn't matter if we speak about local or n...

How can I (as a citizen) join the adult's table? Anyone knows the formula? Because it seems to be so opaque inside politics and who are the ones makin...

It is literally the same issue but we don't waste our time to go a poll and vote for politicians. China is a good example to consider of. They do not ...

The problem is this. Everybody wins inside politics. The government and the opposition. Pur votes give them power to always win in whatever issues.

Most PM are puppets of a few wich really holds the power. It could be interesting to see how effective would be not voting at all. What would happen t...

I see that "anarchism" is often related to individualism and it is true because politics tend to be inspired for the group. I understand your point th...

It seems to be a worthy cause against the classical system of representatives...

I don't understand what "being a weasel" means because I am not Anglo-Saxon. I don't have a problem in language or comprehension. If I use sayings in ...

You have said it is better to be careful. But what is the point of starting this OP then? I have debated with @"Alkis Piskas" and he pointed out that ...

What is the clue of this OP then?

So it looks like the author wants to play with us and he is reading our posts in the shadows and he is changing depending on our opinions. :chin: That...

Exactly. Representative democracy is no longer effective because they do not "represent" us. It is a filthy lie to get a seat in the congress and star...

I just checked the OP has changed the title and subject. Not my fault! :lol: Anyway, I also see the difference between both concepts. Still waiting fo...

Very important OP. Let me tell you that I fully agree with you because of the following arguments: 1. Since the moment politicians don't seem to respe...

Hello again, Alkis Piskas. If you do not mind, yesterday I asked through email to Kelley L. Ross, Ph.D. what were his thoughts about Gnosis He answere...

It is less susceptible to supremacism because Shinto is not based on hierarchical relationships neither sacred figures such as "God", "Muhammad", "Jes...

It is true that Japanese nationalists have always been mixed with Shinto religion because they see it as a part of Japan's values and traditions. But ...

You are welcome :up:

Thank you so much for doing the effort of research. At least, I have learned something new today and looks like interesting. Nevertheless, I also root...

The average Ph.D. thesis is nothing but a transference of bones from one graveyard to another - J. Frank Dobie (1888-1964)

Exactly. I personally think that holding a PhD on philosophy at Harvard university or Oxford (for example) is so worthy and significant.

:100: :up: This is when literally corruption started to flourish

Paradoxically, all of those who committed slavery to others are the same who blessed the name of God. Landlords and white supremacist have always been...

At least, the pre-Socratic doctrine was related to nature and the search for a connection towards it: fire, water, air, earth, wind, etc... But since ...
