I would say it is by design. Woman for better or worse takes her cues from man. If she is in a low state, it is the men who are to blame.

A man-woman is a freak of nature.

A man becomes conscious by reflecting God. If you found a woman you thought was conscious "more or less" it is likely she was just reflecting some man.

What do you mean biology doesn't matter? Have you ever seen a male woman?

Woman was designed to become conscious through a conscious man.

Can there be a male woman, though? Is it even desirable? Is she not the "help-meet"?

First of all, if you pray to Jesus or gods from another dimension, you'll never get an answer, you're basically just talking to yourself. The only spiritual guides you'll find that will talk back to you are the living ones on planet earth.

You seem certain about this. Why?

Pray with your broken heart. "Father... Father..."

I feel like Crusader made up the story as a joke. It's too obviously not just a "prank."

Pantheism is just philosophy du jour. Sanitized atheism.

Guess again.

Why don't you just be honest. Are you Jewish?

Keep God (the invisible, the formless, the absolute) in you heart (consciousness) at all times whatever insofar as you are able. Offer up your life to God as a living sacrifice. -- Talking Ass, if you are interested in becoming a Christian, you should know that animal sacrifices were so last Testame...

The higher a thing can rise, the further it can fall. That is a concise explanation of all the more absurd branches of Christianity.

Here it true Christianity (Orthodox), as preserved since the Apostles:

God is love, but the way back to love is by obedience to His will. That is the most important point. A lot of superficial Christians ignore this. It's not easy to be a Christian, never was.

I called atheists boring. I don't hate them. I don't hate librarians either.

Those aren't real Christians. The minimum definition of a Christian is someone on his way to becoming a saint. An authentic Christian is a saint.

Let's not hijack the topic.

There seems to be a lot of Christian hate on the forums. It's pretty silly.

I strongly recommend reading the Holy Bible. Jung said that to read Nietzsche required real maturity. It also seems to be true that reading the Bible requires exceptional self-possession and maturity. What are your favorite parts of the Bible? And why? I like the "Red Text" Big fan of Mat...

grat⋅i⋅tude
  /ˈgrætɪˌtud, -ˌtyud/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [grat-i-tood, -tyood] Show IPA
–noun
the quality or feeling of being grateful or thankful

No pride there.

Religion is pure gratitude. It's hard for an ugly man to be grateful for much. :)

I have a theory that you have to be handsome to know God.

It's not really a strawman considering the crowd drawn to these forums.

I am glad you began your post like that so I knew when to stop reading.

If you weren't a wanker, you would know the truth by experience.

You are a liar. :)

Edit: I am only giving you advice. Chastity was the best thing that ever happened to me. I have confirmed what the saints have always taught. This will be my last reply to you.

There is nothing wrong with judgement. Ego is in the motivation. A brussel-sprout is egoless but I hardly recommend you take that as your model.

I don't believe you. :D

Also, don't abandon your ego premmaturely. Sometimes impotence is mistaken for egolessness.

There is such a thing as a moral high-ground, but that is just a fact and has nothing to do with ego.

Just try a little self-control. All wise men have sworn by chastity. It is not for nothing. You will see.
