(this means alot to me, i am grateful to still have it continuosly)
we all have it, the abitlity to inhale, and exhale. yet we never stop to think about it- do we? its not an obvious thing, but you see when you dig deeper in the real meaning, the answer is simple... without it we would not be here, we could not survive, we depend on it to keep us going, but we do not contemplate about the subject.
without the ability to breathe, i would've not been able not write this...x

Ok guys, we truly have an epic battle today. It's a three way match between some Chinese heavy weights.

Lao Tzu vs Confucius vs Sun Tzu

Who would win?

Remember, the person with the best answer allows their philosopher of choice to advance to the next round.

Good luck and may the best philosopher win!

I love to hear what other peoples' quotes are because they usually relate to their lives in some way or another and are very meaningful.

... God, does that mean he (i.e. the human Jesus) shared 50% of his "DNA" with God?

It is really a question about empirical data and a body of evidence. When talking science such as evolution or chemistry etc, an investigation is initiated into the question of why something is what it is or the way it is. Only empirical data is acceptable as an explanation and it must perforce be verifiable. While it is true that this approach has yet to explain everything, it does however create a growing picture of the way things really are. In the context of spirituality, there is no empirical data whatsoever. There are no facts, verifiable or otherwise that would lead one to the conclusion that a particular belief has any validity at all. All belief systems require 'Faith" for the simple reason that there is nothing to substantiate them. An easier way to view this is with a metaphor. Lets say religion and science both represent shirts. While it is true there are holes in the shirt of science, it is also true that they are being knitted shut every day with new information and technology and someday, probably soon, it will be a whole shirt. Religion, on the other hand, simply asks that you believe a shirt is there. If your intellectually cold, which will you choose to protect you?

Can you feel what's happening in the world right now? most people are starting to question thier life-time beliefs. people are rapidly loosing hope from possibly looking to fill that void of what's unknown. most don't even care, or certainly are'nt prepared for what is soon to be a spiritual war between what i percieve to be Cause and Effect! "Our minds will resurrect to salvage what we have thought to neglect." This is not a religeous belief or something i want to sell! just a thought for everybodys feedback!

Part of what makes Buddhism special is that it is so adaptable to other religions and philosophies, one could compare and contrast it to either of these two beliefs in many different ways. Obviously the question could fill volumes but i am just looking for your first thought about it.

I went on to a path of thinking why does an atheist not believe in g-d? And thats because there is no proof that he exists, and so it leads me to think what proof do you have that an atom exists? Have you actually seen one? How do you know it does exist? Is it because someone told you? What about evolution? Have you ever seen something evole? Explain why you would believe in a molecule so small that you can't see but you won't believe in a force that guides your life. (also keep in mind that we have genes which guide our life, so if you go by this arguement have you every seen these genes?)

I just saw a phd philosophical major teaching a class. And I really would love to have his job. I've always been one to think outside of the box and instead of picking one side usually have a little of both. I'm not sure though because even though I love it. It seems like it would be hard to get a job as one. I've been thinking about becoming a radiologist. Because I could help people and the money seems to be great. But I keep having desires to do something more artistic. Such as the above or writing things like that. Choosing what to do with the rest of your life is soo frustrating. I'm passionate about science and philosophy both which go hand in hand. What do you think I should do?

Go read this Authors Opinon, (link below) read it, and tell me if you can prove it wrong.

Honesty counts so only "yes" or "no" are acceptable answers, as the 'author' speaks for themselves in the opening title.
