But by going any further... to make the assertion that it doesn't exist... that's just as close-minded as the people who presume its existence as a matter of faith alone.

How else does one test the validity of an argument in philosophic debate other than to assert and defend it to see if it's sound or full of holes?

1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

Again, you're right. I do contradict myself. I guess that means no one should listen to me.

If you think True and False are interchangeable, then there's no point listening to you. :wink:

There are countless impressions, across the globe, of what the soul actually IS

All the more reason to doubt it exists! :noway:



So if something has many interpretations, that means it doesn't exist?  If leaps in logic were made with motorcycles, you'd be Evel Knievel.

The energy is no more. The young that wanted to be old said, his brain filled with the yellow stain. “ I wanted to know the knowing and now all I want is to feel the life laughing for I still remember what is like. Desire that speaks the words of no more lies and such beautiful beginning turned to hell”. The lotus of the sixteen petals yields the secrets of energy. The chakra of the heart.
Who are the dissolute? What do they buy when there is no soul/orgone/energy/essence/spirit/psychic energy/libido/many words and many languages? Said Thafetch.
Desire is the way of life. Sin is the way of death. Said the player in the sinecure.
I like the feeling/desire of youth. Said the young. Fools/jokers/trickters trying to become the seed/soul that we are. Just being the seed is joy and blessedness.

Metaphor and the epoch idea.
1.- The sharing of large amounts of data
2.- The brain’s algorithm (imagination and experience)
The ritual (Stone: 101)
Close your eyes and imagine: hunt ... hunt... hunt and then squezze your nostrils recalling some ancestral feeling... now say walk... walk... walk... wack... awake. Metaphorically maybe we get the same idea of the multiple possibilities. But, do we feel the same? How about eyes on the wall?

Now Imagine: shake table.
Earthquake or the spirits are here come to mind. But, for the metaphorical mind it may follow eyes on the wall. And now is like the tick of a watch... tic-tac walk-watch... walk-watch. And the singer sings and the drummer drum drum drum.

'And for this reason repentance (metanoia) is an elevating means. For he who feels impatience with the circunstances in which he finds himself, devises means of escape.
  Now the chief thing in purification is the will. For then both deeds and words lend a helping hand. But, when the will is absent, the whole purificatory discipline of initiation is...'
