Philosophy - September 2006

Whether you want to look through my questions and answers or not is your choice. But, however far you look, what ideological bent do you see me presenting?

definitely with a parallel stream of vagueness and doubt. Miracles alone cannot make one to have absolute faith and it does not happen to all. Belief in god, I feel makes one a climber not a tree - it always wants to lean on. A believer and a non-believer meet at a point - believer attributes his miseries also to the action of god though with a heavy heart whereas a non-believer takes it as it comes and tries to find a way or fails without leaning on unknown factor - at least he does not feel disappointed due to his non-leaning attitude and due to absence of reciprocal expectations which is inherent in a believer. In a way it seems to be good I feel - no leaning, no expectation and no disappointment. What is going to happen is sure to happen; why then this leaning?

People here keeps claiming that God exists uncaused, uncreated and unborn, and that he exists timeless. And that he does not consist of carbon atoms or any kind of matter or energy that is a property of this universe.

I just wonder, where people get this from? Is it written down somewhere (in the Bible, Quran or elsewhere) or is it just their local priest telling them this?

I'm just very curious about this - I hope I'm not offending anyone...

Your life if it could somehow benefit the whole of mankind, yet no one would know of your sacrifice, and you could not say goodbye?

The body very often acts on it's own .We don't even know what is happening inside the body.Though one part of the brain is in control of the body we have no access to it.We have the custody of the body as we may have custody of a child but we can not say we possess the child even if it is your child.

And comes from afar? Although not in entire forgetfulness, and not in utter nakedness. But do we come trailing clouds of glory?

Given that I get paid by the NHS, and the NHS is funded by taxpayers, does it not seem a bit redundant that I have to pay tax? I am, in a sense, paying myself.
