SPEAK THE TRUTH! And Redeem This World From Hell

[LUH 3417]

It's meant as one.

Taoism is tremendous and splendid. The Asian religious closest in spirit and thought to Sufism, my favorite. A great, great and inspiring comparative study on Sufism/Taoism:

Thank you, added it to my wish list.

One more thought going back to what you said about your lovely women's studies professor. Since I'm a little bit obsessive about fairness and balance when it comes to ideas (although plenty here would say otherwise, I'm sure), it has to be acknowledged that many men have inversely mirrored women for the worse, and have become very effeminate, soft, unmasculine, etc, dressing girlish, testosterone-deficient, purple hair and perverse hair styles, etc. This is even further evidence that your theory about the elaborate feminist courtship ritual of feminist theorizing is going down the wrong road, as I said, and not working.

But it reminds me of something I think I saw or heard Dr. Peterson say: that a significant number of women in Europe have been marrying middle east Arab and African immigrants, almost all of which who have a major abundance of traditional masculine characteristics, at times with a slightly scary or even slightly violent aura to them. He says this may be due to the fact that standard issue European males have become so effeminate, and women there are unconsciously compensating for this from a longing for full-bore, non-effeminate masculinity they sense in the immigrant males they are marrying. I don't know, am still thinking about it. I'd be interested in your opinion about this theory.

The Arab and African men are probably more physically fit from physical labor and express joy more often because of their better physical health. I think sensuality is what’s on the decline everywhere. I truly believe when an infant is breast fed exclusively for a large part of its formative years and held close to a female body there is a form of sensuality that develops and remains throughout life.

Cerebral, success oriented men can be very difficult to connect with.

According to physics the universe is either predetermined or it’s not. From the quote you posted it seems
Does that mean you believe in and understand quantum mechanics?

I think the universe is predetermined (which is why phrophecies sometimes work) but we have free will and the ability to see and change the future.

I somewhat understand quantum mechanics but i don't believe in it no.

I don’t like Jung but I like when he says when there is love there is no will to power. The will only works to a certain extent until one exhausts oneself.

Not enough time in the day to comprehensively respond to you and all of your goofy accusations. But I went to Amazon reviews of the "Paradise" book, and the pattern of virtually all of the most critical reviews is this book is written by someone partisan and prejudiced against Muslims at the outset, someone who cherry-picks sources that "prove" the author's thesis. Pseudo-scholars always ignore all data that contradicts their thesis, never factoring it in, and tells his audience what they want to hear. That's how such as your Dr. Veith gets to make a comfortable living, giving his market what it wants, not the truth.. In the same vein as the other movies and books you directed me too, this another author with deep partisan leanings hostile to Islam and emitting an aura of fringy nutballness. If you directed me to videos that exhibited your fringe anti-Muslim pseudo-scholars - or even trained mainstream Christian, say Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian scholars - in debate with legitimate scholars and historians of Islam, I would exceed the speed-limit driving off to acquire and watch it. The excerpt from a review of the book below mentions, BTW, a documentary (which I haven't seen) that appears to offer proof that's not nutballish about not a strawman Muslim Spain your author depicts, but an imperfect but a flourishing, tolerant, artistic, intellectual and highly civilized Muslim Spain, a country which went into decline after they threw out the Muslims. How about you and I get the docu, watch, and discuss later?

"But the greatest evidence of Muslim tolerance in Spain is that after 700 years, Christians existed in Spain, but after 100 years of Castilian rule, Muslims did not. When the Christians had the power to expel the Christians, they did. When the Muslims had the same power, they did not. The author creates all these reasons why it was justified to expel the Muslims, but he doesn't cite the same reasons as why it would be justified for the Muslims to do the same. He goes out of his way to apologize for the acts of the Castilians and exposes his double-standard way of thinking.The problem with this book is that it has no standards...In comparison with the contemporaries, the treatment of Jews was more tolerant in Islamic Spain. The Visigoths forced many Jews to convert to Christianity. Islamic Spain did not. Castilian Spain expelled the Jews entirely and the inquisition was created to root out secret Jews. There was never an Islamic inquisition...
For those that want a more fair look at the true al-Andalus which was far from being a "paradise" but nevertheless most certainly had architectural, literary, and artistic marvels and with a more religiously tolerant form of government than the highly intolerant Christian-based Inquisition that came after, I recommend the documentary "When the Moors Ruled in Europe" which uses both contemporary written records and archeaology to PROVE that al-Andalus was a rich, flourishing civilization but that its flaws (same with ancient Greece and Rome and Byantium)."

You’re right; there isn’t enough time in the day to continue playing this game of Wack-A-Badger. Your arguments change from post to post, as each one is countered by one inconvenient fact after another. What's also obvious is that you can't even look at an alternative assessment, even from respected Professors, because it might upset your fragile liberal worldview. The last reference is from a Professor of Spanish History at Northwestern University with a PhD from Harvard, but keep calling everyone you disagree with a pseudo-scholar. That is the one guarantee to ensure you never learn anything new.

Sorry but your selective and anomalous moments in History do not prove a generality. The bottom line is that the Judaeo-Christian world of today is far more advanced and tolerant than that of the Muslim world. Putting your cultural relativism aside, Islam is not an improvement or correction to Christianity. Your attempt to argue the contrary is what is goofy.

Perhaps that's why I can never achieve anything. I have no self love or someone to love. People born to parents thst don't provide enough love never learn how to love themselves and end up being a fraction of what they could have been.

They provided the love they could given their own situation. You grew to be articulate and funny. You must have a good heart and bright eyes.

As I said in another post, I have looked at alternatives such as Veith, and saw he was hawking fringe kookness, respected yes, but only by other kooks. No evidence you have bothered to look at alternatives to your view, and you have no interest in documentary I suggested. And evidently you have no interest in involving non-kook scholars from publicly discussing it.

What you say about the alleged fragility of my worldview is just a projection on me of yours. Old ploy done trillions of times by people: accuse people of flaws they don't have of the very flaws you do have. So it is your view which is actually fragile, not mine.

Yes, the "Judeo-Christian" world is way more tolerant than Islam, you got that right! For once you got something big correctly. It tolerates abortion, pornography, aggressive wars and bombings against Muslim and other populations (Yugoslavia, say) - which it initiates, and which destroy entire countries, trade restrictions which result in a half million innocent children dying - "We think the price was worth it," Secretary of State Mad Albright about UN sanctions stopping medicines from going into Iraq (a machination actually forced by Judeo-Christian US and their Zionist masters), and so much more could be added proving J-C tolerance over and above that of the Muslims. Face up to it x-ray Peat, you are on the side of the bad guys. You ought to be a little concerned, as "God is a just God," just as the scriptures you obsessively cherry pick when convenient for you, says, 2 Thessalonians 1:6. And as the verse in Thessalonians states, He pays back.

Are you in Cali by any chance?

So again, a Northwestern Professor with a Harvard PhD is a kook? Apparently accusing others of what you are doing hasn’t gotten too old for you to use. The truth is that you are the one cherry picking facts and promoting kooky ideas. Moreover your comments are so littered with anti-Jewish ignorance, it’s getting very hard to take anything you say seriously.

But since you apparently think the Islamic world is such a much better place to live, why don’t you move there? I hear they love Westerners so much that they always offer them a front row view at all the public executions.

In Ancient Greece, a kook or cuckoo may have been considered auspicious, given that the word auspicious comes from the oracle divining direction from the flight of birds.

lol, true but it all depends on the direction they are flying. I'm seeing a lot of cuckoos continually flying into windows. Another derivative meaning of cuckoo is a cuck.

True. Unless it’s a window to another dimension or something.
