Choice and non-choice, implies restriction and illusion. If one is presented with the choice of A or B, it must either choose or not choose, but it can not disregard the choices and manifest it’s own option of C. Also if it must either choose or not choose it is restricted and still must contend ...

I can think of examples in mathematics of series without a beginning but with an end. The set of negative intergers has no beginning, but it does have an end. It is only an assumption, also that everything has a cause or that anything exists without a cause. If it does, however, there is nothing in...

Remember, I'm not the one who says something which always was cannot at some point cease to be. If it has always been, there is nothing yet to say it cannot end, not be, in the future. To assume that something has always been, is to imply the existence of a thing without a cause. But this is a comp...

If something has never come into existence, it could be for two reasons: 1. It has always been. 2. It doesn't exist. If it has always been, there is nothing yet to say it cannot end, not be, in the future. If it does not exist, even as a concept, it cannot have a referent. "It does not exist," is e...

This doesn't follow. Just because something has never arisen or began, it doesn't mean, unless it simply doesn't exist, that it cannot end. Something that always was does not necessarily have to always be It’s pretty simple logic. If something has never come into existence, it certainly can not c...

All one can do is encourage people to shed all desire to be part of a personality cult and become independent students of truth. That's one of the reasons why I like to emphasize the writings of other truthful thinkers, such as Lao Tzu, Buddha, Diogenes, Hakuin, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, and so on. I...

The Truth would have to be self-evident. They have taken Godel’s challenge of proof, his so-called Incompleteness Theorem, (that incidently was referring to Russell’s and Whitehead’s Principia Mathematica claim of “proof”), whitewash any declaration that is self-contained and obliterate an...

Yes, the entire essay boils down to just one thought: "I want to believe in free-will". I believe it's called The Argument from Wishful Thinking. - Are wishes caused? How? Are they caused by the mind of the individual or caused by something outside the mind? Do you have a proof? Self causation is b...

Ask questions, ignore the answers


What will be accomplished by asking questions and does ignoring the answers coincided with the asking of questions?
