How to be wise

@omar30 They both falsely predicted it. It’s been 1500-2000 years, and the Earth is still fine. Shouldn’t that tell you something about their accuracy?

@at_anchor As to your question, who said that ‘something’ wasn’t nothing? What’s the difference between the two?

This forum needs better resources for dealing with suicide.

@Leo Gura This comparison you’re making between the Iraq war and the Ukraine war is very deceptive. Saddam was by all standards a criminal, and his regime committed countless atrocities before the US invaded. Ukraine on the other hand is a peaceful country. Their only crime was wanting to join NATO, which was very popular among the Ukrainian public. Russia cannot tell the Ukrainian people what they can and cannot do. Your bias towards Russia and Putin is obvious.

@Leo Gura If Europe invades and conquers (retakes) Africa, will you promise to defend them as much as you are defending Putin right now?

There’s a world of difference between extracting resources from a place, and conquering it. One of them is more permanent. Lol. And Iraq was part of the Turkish empire. So it makes more sense for Turkey to invade and conquer Iraq.

If God doesn’t know ‘something’, then by definition that ‘thing’ doesn’t exist. Hence God is omniscient.

That’s a very bad comparison. It was obvious that America had no ambitions of controlling Iraq in any shape or form. Their sole target was Saddam’s regime. Zelensky was chosen by the Ukrainian people. Targeting him is the same as targeting all of Ukraine’s people.

Even without the mind’s understanding, God is still omniscient. There’s no other viable alternative.

That’s not Putin’s aim. It’s an unavoidable consequence of his actions. But his goal is to conquer the Donbas and Crimea, and thereby have access to the Black Sea for their navy.

Pure nonsense. Russia is your birthplace, and the place that your parents and ancestors are from. Not really. If you commit an international crime, your American citizenship will be revoked, and you’ll be sent back to Russia. It’s happened to American citizens that were born in America from American citizens, let alone someone who came here long after birth.

Actually it is. Since you are Russian, it is only natural that you come to their defence.

The way you trip. The psychedelics you use.

If that was true in your case, Leo wouldn’t be doing pickup.

Why does your profile say you’re a male? Same as the op.

Nonsense.

@iceprincess KO!

But how could you know this? If we are speaking relatively (taking solipsism aside), how do you know there isn’t some other guy using 5 MeO like you but is perhaps a year ahead of you on this psychedelic journey?

@Leo Gura Are you claiming to have experienced the highest truth ever, and that no one else has ever experienced a higher truth than yours?

Being in social settings more = More social experience, Mr Einstein.

I doubt that’s true. In most bars and clubs, the guys usually outnumber the girls.

At least there’s something you can do about the toilet, unlike politics.

Jesus was an apocalyptic preacher, basically telling everyone the world was about to end. Now stage Green Christians want to turn him into an enlightened figure.

Have you seen all the David Hawkins material on audible? They are really milking a dead man’s work.
