Let the defendant prove their own insanity..or sanity in front of a panel of like minded individuals. Trails have entertainment value and this method would certainly be entertaining at the very least. Also, an additional charge could be laid for conspiracy to appear sane or insane...everyone loves a conspiracy...be it by several or just within the mind of a single individual
Frankly, I find most people normally deviated; some are abnormally deviated but very few of us are not deviates in some fashion... Let him who is without a deviation deviate away from being a non deviate; Deviatism rules!
Given what the origins were and the purpose in the time of ancient Sumeria and Egypt, it devolved soon after both civilizations. Whatever remained of the 'old science' was totally obliterated by the Babylonians under Marduk. The Chaldeans were the only ones that kept most of the origins intact. Today nothing has survived of ancient Astrology, it's all scam and fakery for the masses. They deserve nothing less.
He hasn't yet and he's almost out of time, literally. Purpose? Naw, God did it all for fun and probably for our amusement and vexation...weird sense of humour.
Poll: Concept of GOD is similar like the concept of more developed aliens!
I don't suppose there's any chance that you would care to elaborate on just what their particular concept would be, is there nor how their concept would be any different, from any less developed aliens...just blindly vote yes or no...smoking something mind numbing are we?
I praise the Earth with its golden breasts, The firm Earth, the broad Earth, Rock and humus, stone and dust. We invoke the firm Earth, the universal provide Into which the trees and the giants of the forest' Constant and unmoved' Have cast their anchor. May we not stumble on this Earth! We praise the broad Earth, purifying and patient, Growing out of the sacred word. May we rest on you, Earth, Carrier of strength, food and plenty, May you be a kind guide to my steps, East,North,South and West. May I not fall when I stand on the Earth. When I lie down and turn to the right or the left' When I spread myself on your back, On the broad bed of Creation, Do not harm me, Earth! May the wounds I dig into you be quick to heal May it not touch your weakness nor strike your heart, Pure Earth.
Found this in the back of an old copy of Lives Of A Bengal Lancer by Francis Yeats Brown, 1930 once owned by a Lancer in an old book store...ironic Love this piece.
Excellent. Well said Ray. However I seriously doubt that most 'sheeple' have the mental agility to analyze and compare...thinking gives many headaches; far easier to take their daily 'Soma'... ( I rather like that 'deluders/deludees...gotta be a song in that somewhere! )
As all religions,(and major philosophies) fit to be practiced in public adhere to, or at least try to all share the same social 'Golden Rule of life': Christianity(in general) All things whatsoever you would have others do to you, you do unto them...
Islam: Not one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother(fellow human) that which he desires for himself.
Judaism: What is hateful to thyself, do not do to another.
Hinduism: This is the sum of our duty: Do naught unto others which would cause you pain if done to you.
Taoism: Regard your neighbor's gain as your own gain, and your neighbor's loss as your own loss.
Confucianism: Never do to others what you would not like them to do to you.
Zoroastrianism: That nature alone is good which refrains from doing unto another whatsoever is not good for itself.
Now as to which is better; basically none as most humans, from all what I've seen, heard of, experienced, etc. live by the adopted philosophy of 'do unto others before they do unto you'. Nice; such a charming approach to life. This is equated with 'the bright side'; I'd really hate to see the 'dark side'; we should all live the Monty Python version and 'Look On the Bright Side of Life' and humankind just might survive...imho; better that the US Soldier Of Fortune magazine attitude of 'Kill 'em all an' let God sort 'em out !'
Of course it's true, read the post colonial histories of what happened in the Congo, Ghana, Kenya, even Zambia/ Rhodesia, Mozambique, Angola, Nigeria/ Biafra; Namibia, etc. etc. they all became charnel houses and some still are with no end in sight...I don't know which was the worst that I served in...perhaps Biafra was the most gruesome with Angola a close second...It could all have been avoided...Very sad.
Some people feel that way about their neighbors; relatives; the police; the military; even just other people; some even feel that way about watching the TV news...some people should just end their own existence, really.
Not necessarily; perhaps many women simply burn out faster through drugs and/or alcohol, go into irreversible depressions for any number of reasons and finally suicide, not even mentioning health reasons such as diseases, heart problems, etc. This website is only a tiny microcosm of surviving members that were once a couple. In others, as the age goes higher, the numbers of widows increase five fold if not more. It would be really surprising that if this were a site merely for the 20's and 30 somethings to have almost any at all in either category. Death in all forms takes all age groups...there is a long waiting list for all.
Yes. No. Perhaps if it were small and difficult to notice.
I thought all hearing aids were small and difficult to notice...people still the ones with a tube shaped like a crescent moon from the early 1900's?! Amazing. I wonder if ones as big as a 'Boom Box' are made...
Very well said; when one goes out on a date, it should go without thinking about it; you both look the best you can for each other. That implies not looking like you just came out of a dumpster...unless going dumpster diving happens to be your date menu...
