Philosophical Speculations

For me credibility is built somewhat differently. Every experience is valid in its own. If I experience angel communicating with me, this is a valid experience, I can describe it faithfully. Is it credible? For me it's impossible to tell if I take it in isolation. If this is the only experience I k...

Since I have had such experiences personally within myself, I consider them as personally credible. I was simply curious if you would say the same for yourself? For me credibility is built somewhat differently. Every experience is valid in its own. If I experience angel communicating with me, this ...

I was simply asking if your reportage was based on your own personal experience? 'Yes' or 'no' will make the report more credible? :) Let this question stay open.

I was with many philosophies, religions and spiritual traditions, and usually taking and practicing them very se...

When talking about God you always stumble with the question what is god. If you say he/it obeys certain laws then you take the will from him. If you say he has wiil, then he's lacking. So he's above all predications and is all predications? Ok... Not the way I would put it but language is tricky. I...

I believe it helps b...
