If you want some fine examples, you should read anything Weininger or Kierkegaard IMO.

Your last reply is just the lowest type of condescension imaginable. Can you argue Weininger was not a miserable outcast for following his own writings? Why are you so attracted to his essays and works?

-I used to score 100% introversion on detailed Myers-Briggs tests. This could be a sign of schizoid behaviour. -You are reluctant to act comfortably around people with opposite mindsets? If a chatting person close to you, unnerves you...you need to find a way to desensitise yourself. It seems to me...

I disagree with Jason: you prevent "coming close to no-return" with these methods WITHOUT any mindgames and trigger more than head or groin-orgasms...you basically experience natural highs over your entire body.

Unless the QRSH are actually a parody of jaded philosophers...my point still stands. The examples I've given, have at least lived a little instead of gaining their "wisdom" from "Holy Scriptures". Your post smacks of fantasy. What do you know of what "living" Unidian o...

There are Taoist 'pleasure'-techniques downloadable on Limewire. They enable you to have multiple head-orgasms without ejaculating...All this is done through simple breathing-exercises and working out. I hope the QRS-followers investigate this, as it would greatly improve their lives.

It's funny to see how people who get mocked the most around here are the only ones with sense. e.g. Tomas, Unidian, Laird and a few others. Ha ha, what an idiot. Right? Unless the QRSH are actually a parody of jaded philosophers...my point still stands. The examples I've given, have at least lived ...

What have either of them got to do with what is being discussed? They are both molecular biologists, scientists; what is the relevance of that? Women have been doing science for a long time. David Quinn was talking about women becoming more masculine. The relevance of my post? These 2 examples show...

... These 4 examples already prove you have serious issues getting along with people of the opposite sex or different persuasions. They also prove you can't seem to find solutions that work in the actual world or with real-life people...rendering your authority as a self-proclaimed sage non-existant...

The key thing is stop being sexual oneself. That is, ceasing the mad urge to look outwards and use others for completion, to crave their approval, to want to hypnotize and dominate them. In other words, by learning how to be self-contained. So to translate this to the female, to stop wanting to be ...

I think he is using his philosophic knowledge to indulge in his true love - namely, subjecting others to his sexual/pedophiliac perversions. Osho, the leader of the orange people, did much the same. The strong streak of impurity in him usurped whatever purity he did posses and utilized for its own ...

-There are no techniques to eliminate unwanted feelings. Just accept them passing through your mind and body+move on. You don't understand these feelings in the same sense as a schizoid does. Unwanted feelings surface during ordinary moments of social interaction. Yesterday I was getting a hair cut...

Also devils advocate might say: Many children are sexually active, if they say ok to some so-called pervert adult who cares for them like a concerned lover would then where is the damage, and why is the damage worse than some child partner would give? who uses them without love and care due to imma...

No amount of justification on McKenna's part can hide the sleazy nature of his ego, his rampant self-indulgences and the disrespect he displays towards others, particularly females. If he tries to palm this off as being the universe's doing, then I have even less respect for him. So are you saying ...

Thanks for your responses, Cognition. Even though I have been diagnosed with a Schizoid Personality Disorder (as part of a process I went through to acquire a government pension), I haven't experienced any of the things you mentioned. I do find small talk uninteresting, but that's mainly because it...

sexuality is a key element of our world. So is lying, murder, delusion, suffering, etc. But that's no reason for them to continue. Why do you equate sexuality with the worst crimes in the world? Why must we get rid of it? Wouldn't it be wiser to educate people how to express this natural urge sanel...

Anyone who doesn't want to distinguish virtue from cowardice shouldn't be on a discussion platform called Genius Forum.

I also think people hated his guts because he was the archetypical atheïst. Jesus: "why don't you judge for yourself what's right?" This rethorical question alone, completely wrecks the Church's authority and lays the foundation of critical self-analysis... "and having stirred up the ...

My guess is they killed him for so-called vanity. The real motives behind Jesus's Christ murder were envy and greed on the Pharisees' part. Think about it: Jesus sought to eradicate everything a finite god stood for: mediocrity, bitch-politics, extracting money in the name of God, killing in the nam...

This is probably blasphemy, but here it goes: maybe Jesus had to repay for past crimes?

I'm not too familiar with this artist. Could you explain wherein his complexity lies?

Uniden wrote: "Remember that one guy? I forgot his name, but he was always preaching social Darwinism and throwing Nietzsche's name around." That was Neil, I think. A young man with no real background in philosophy who drank the dangerous Nietzschean potion and, as so many before him, pro...

That's good to know, Dan.

Is this wisdom innate or can it be fostered?
