Philosophers and Christians are more alike than they realize. I'd like to hear the arguments from both as to why the other is wrong and your's is right.

I was raised Catholic from birth, and it was all colorful for a bit but once I reached adulthood I didn't feel enlightened at all. All that once was bright and good, became a big lie. Backed up by the most spiritual person in my family, my grandmother. Maybe it's her prayers that keep me alive, I don't know. I don't see people praying ever. I don't believe the people that surround me actualy believe in anything higher than themselves. But there's something inside me that makes me believe in something bigger than all of us. I have had it with organized religion. I'll respect yours, I'm not here to destroy anyone's belief. My belief was substituted by science and paychecks. I still believe in the Golden Rule. I live trying to make sence of my perception. In the past I used LSD many times. It never handicapped from doing anything someone who wasn't under the influence could do and it never affected my judgment. I believe in my experience I saw things as they really are.

When the Economy crashes, will a mass amount of people starve becuase lack of knowledge to grow food and perhaps hunt? What will happen when money means nothing and supermarkets no long offer food?

Do most people lack knowledge to grow/hunt food today?

Was there ever a time the universe didn't exist? If so, what exactly would be "nothingness"? If not, how is that possible? If it involves a God, who/what created God?

Imagine a utopian world in which all people are happy and healthy & hav satisfying relationships. There is neither illness nor death. Because everyone is satisfied, healthy and happy, there is no social disorder and no need for any helping profession: no police, doctors, nurses, lawyers or socila workers. Neither is there need for moral discernment. Now imagine the social disorder that would follow the introduction of serious disease. Individuals who become ill are unable to care for themselves and to meet their own basic needs.
>How does society deal with this problem?

...he was in his 40's during that period from 65 to 69. He's a writer by the name of Norman Mailer. When asked about LSD use in the 60's he explained that it opened a big highway to the mysteries of life and he was totaly against it's use, and never did used it himself. He said this,

"I felt it was too easy. I have always had this very strong, call it a feeling, call it a prejudice, call it a conviction, that the mysteries are not easily available. You have to earn entrance in to them." he goes on..."the people that were taking it were seeming to become less and less as they took it. They got emptier and more vapid"

What are your thoughts reading this? Can you describe an experience in which you earned into a mystery of life?

I ask this because I have used LSD in the past, but to this day I feel denied by "public conciousness" [as I call it], and it's mysteries. I keep thinking that people are seeing something in me, they don't want to learn or just don't like.
