Philosophy - October 2007

Especially your own. Beyond intelligence, reason, logic and all those good words lay the power of the mind. Those powers have been kept from you for generations. You are taught to not believe in them.
For instance; You are encouraged not to be presumptive. When in fact "presumptive" from you mind is a powerful force.
Think these powers do not exist? How do you believe great power has been held over huge masses of people for thousands of years by a very few individuals and their progeny?

1. Then God gave Abel's spiirit life in Mankind. Abel's spirit has power over death.
2. The Spirit of Abel, in Man, conquered death. It displaced the Spirit of Cain and became dominant for 1000 years.
3. Abel's Spirit overpowered Cain's Spirit, and made it silent. A law was issued (by God) that it could not speak again until the probation of 1000 years was served.
4. I saw thrones and the ones who sat on them. Authority to judge was given to the ones who were beheaded for their testimony against Octavian, and for keeping the name of Yahweh as our God. They had not worshipped Augustus or his son. They had not worn their symbols onb their vesture; they had not accepted any of the blasphemous money as bribes. They will live and rule with Abel for 1000 years.
5. All the dead live not again until the 1000 years is over. The holy ones are resurrected next.
6. Blessed and holy is anyone resurrected then. On these the 2nd death will not occur. They will be priests of Abel forever.

Take a look around, do you still see me?
When you close your eyes , do you still feel me?
Love has begin to feel sad
Like a long lost dream I once had.
The miles have gotten longer
The longer im away from you.
My nights have become restless
My thoughts are moving so fast.
Forgive me for this, forgive me for loving.
My heart is hurting not knowing.
Knowing where you are.
Seperated by miles and attached by love
One thing I know is I can never have enough.
Enough of this love that is hurting my heart.
I close my eyes and your face is there.
I see your eyes and that intense stare..
I can still feel your hands touching my face
And your words that stick with me
In my sleep and in my thoughts,
I remember it all, the taste of your kiss
The smell of your skin on my pillow.
A love that will haunt me till the day I meet you again
A love that is with me everyday without end
This pain in my heart only grows and
The love that we shared, noone else will know.
Miles have brought us to this point
Just close your eyes and meet me in your dreams
You will see me there, waiting
I will give everything to you, if you only knew
My heart aches for you, a pain deep within
A pain I cannot live without, until our life begins.

How are good qualities like consideration and care for others, honesty, practicality and practical acumen, compassion for others, love, strength to stand firm and refuse to bend down to injustice, being kind, noble and ability to live a good peaceful life get developed ?

What motivates people to put an effort to develop and nurture some or all of such good qualities ? What keeps them enthused and encouraged and what gives them perseverance in a life which is a quest for good qualities and virtues ?

im studying philosophy and i have to read about 20 A4 pages on how to define the word "art". it just seems pretty pointless. art is a huge part of my life (in its various forms), but how are we going to progress by defining what it is?
all input welcome!

Philosophers like Sartre use human freedom as the fundamental basis for their ideas. But how do we know that it even exists? How do we know that actions are not merely the results of causes? Furthermore, how do they deal with developments in cognitive science that question the existence of a Self that is in full control of one's thoughts and actions?

Do we exist only to destroy? Or do people live to create? Both of these questions seem to be different, but both aren't really questions that can be answered by us. Who would we ask and how could we research this?

If we live to create then why do we destroy? If we exist only to destroy then why are born? I believe there is balance in everything, but for some reason I don't see it here. Perhaps we exist only to consume and disperse matter. Is life the opposite of matter or is it the energy that animates it?

People in our society always want to know, what is the right thing to do? What are you ultimately trying to achieve?

There is news that Scientists in the USA are expecting to announce in a few weeks their success in creating artificial life out of inanimate materials. It may be a very simple form of life, but that living being would just be born from manipulation of chemicals..... how would Bible followers explain this away or deal with this development?

Do you think one god or omnipresent or almighty whatever you call be able to manage the Universe? I believe there must be one God for one solar system or at least one per galaxy. Any one agree/disagree?

And no, I'm not an over-emotional 14year old. And I'm not big on religion. Everything is just too simple and pathetic. Your born, you live, you die. The universe was not religiously forged. Humans are not the imbread relatives of adam and eve, it is being scientifically proven that all life started(and in most cases ended) from an asteroid and the tiny little germlike microorganisms(which disturbs me since i am mysophobic) on it evolved to all living life including the extremely flawed human beings we all are. Nobody has pure intentions anymore. The whole world is always fighting about who's "right" when theirs no such thing anymore and its really just the emotionally decided opinion of one person that infects a large quantity of people and those uninfected are evil little ant demons. Keep in mind I am not unstable or suicidal, I just can't pretend everything's fine and wonderful and ignore all these questions that pop up in my head.

Pondering questions of the universe requires two essentials -- thought and being alone to think. What is your quotient for being alone to think and philosophize?
