I dont know you like that and Im not even sure we ever truly interacted on here, but through the years I have been here I can honestly say I always looked forward to seeing your replies in a thread and knew they would be well worth the read. Your presence loomed large here and though I have never been a heavy poster on the forums I will miss your insightful input. RIP man, this place wont seem the same without you. |

Always takes his time with his replies and provides nothing more than quality information for those who ask, it's also a breath of fresh air reading about the achievements and professions of successful shroomites such as him. Very cool that you are working in psychology, it's something I have been interested in for awhile along with religion and mystical states |

Posts in debate oriented forum but will not back up his claims. Attributes disagreement with his claims to ignorance. Best of all, he'll "diagnose" you with a mental disorder if you disagree with him (seriously). At times will contribute info on alchemy and mysticism, on the plus side. |

""Plato named a tripartite soul: rational, emotional , and appetative."" Plato never wrote anything in the first person that claimed that, and evidence from how all the dialogues end, without conclusions, points to the fact that it was for very good reason. You can talk religion all you want, but Plato scholarship is my hobby and I will not have you disgrace his name. Last Edited 03/17/12 09:29 PM |

Re: Re: Amanita Muscaria - The Gold Realm & White Room of Crucifixion "Bottom line: Resist interpretation, but note the various elements of your experiences and try to map which archetypal patterns emerged into your consciousness. Christ is the Westerner's central archetype of wholeness. It can manifest in psychosomatic ways (like yours), or in the stigmata, or abstractly as mandalas (cathedral rose windows), or as "Unbearable Compassion" which constellates all other feeling states and motives around the Heart Center (as a human mandala). The psychospiritual result may well be a greater reverence for the Christ in one's own life. Thanks for posting!" This is very true man, cool post. |

Never presents supporting evidence for his claims, and has a bunch of annoyingly retarded morals and values; also, he often resorts to ad hominem attacks while he is "debating", and that's just fucking retarded.

I thought i had rated you before because I enjoy reading your posts. Your contributions to threads regarding christianity and religion are fresh and have sound perspective. My personal view of a lot of the realists and dawkins advocates (and such at P&S) is that their posts lack substance. They should take a leaf out of your book, as in teach some knowledge. They can be frustrating and i imagine a lot of us, religious or otherwise, realise that being uninformative makes them seem just as blind in their faith as some of those who they're failing to debunk. Philosophy, after all, is the 'love of wisdom', people need to be more open to sharing their knowledge, most of all the types of people i just mentioned. Without grounds of knowledge on a particular subject, they barely even seem to question themselves and thus never get alternate points of view. This to me is a key example of blind faith, assuming the obvious (in their eyes) without an inkling of philosophical benchmarking. 5 shrooms for you!

"The Truth is always playing a kind of hide-and-seek with us because we are still like babies in our abilities to understand. In turn, I enjoy looking for the Truth in dark and apparently unlikely places, but 'Lo, cleave a piece of wood and Truth is there, lift a stone and Truth is there.' In myth and magick, among bikers and strippers, in many but not in all. In evil, only the Lie exists." Edit: Whenever the subject of God I find myself looking for your .02. Thank you. |

(Literally, as I raise a goblet of Pour Haus™ cabernet).

Most every faith consecrates ritual substances (as Asante suggested). Your question is a good one, but there's nothing humorous about it, especially not irreverence from a profane lack of knowledge of the sacred. I, for one, don't take this forum for a joke. IMO the time is overdue to take this forum from being dominated by former classroom cut-ups, irreverent cynics, and victims of religious abuse, to college and graduate school levels.
