Re: Nietzsche and Christianity - Metaphysical Idealist Critique
@ Cleric ... allow me a more specific line of inquiry: what do you feel might be the benefit, if any, for the 'seeker' to imagine a personified, gender-specific Godhead 'out there' somewhere, a notion I've never resonated with since having inexplicably been blown away into that state transcending an...

Re: Psychedelics
As mentioned elsewhere, I've no experience with 5-Me0-dmt, but have recreationally taken mescaline and psilocybin many years ago, with no real 'spiritual' intention, and while I've no clue what the actual dosage was, not being done in any methodical or measured way, I suspect that it was not nearly ...

Re: Posting of newsworthy articles
In this instance, I didn't post the Church article here, because I only check into BK's blog now and then, and don't have a Facebook account, so don't follow him there, in which case I may have shared it here, had you not beat me to it.

Re: Posting of newsworthy articles
PS: I thought the NYT article was damn good investigative journalism. Interesting that you saw it as "solely politically focused and charged with countless provocative, arguably partisan points that could be politically contested." Similar might be said about BK's recent rant about the pa...

The cha...

Re: Posting of newsworthy articles
I think posts "on the fringe" would benefit from being visible. Allow the post, and then lock it, stating the reason why it is locked. This will provide a kind of transparent self-documenting narrative for the forum policy. Hiding stuff is never good. Well, the post on the Covid crisis in...

Re: Posting of newsworthy articles
PS: Can you request feedback without posting the article for folks to contemplate in context of my stated metaphysical question? [/i] Well, we could get into metaphysical discussions about all kinds of topical news articles, but what I'm asking is should they be clear examples of articles that have...
