Thelogical discussion 001

Abe: I quote Matthew chapter 1, verse 21. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

It is not good to call something evil.

Is the idea of evil an useful idea? I say it is not an useful idea. The reason I say it is not an useful idea is that it enables people to falsely think they have analyzed a situation. "Hitler was an evil man." "The income tax is evil extortion.", etc. This incomplete analyse makes it impossible to... Sign in to see full entry.

Same sex marriage

Who am I?

Who am I? I am a four dimensional agent, moving through a four dimensional space time, seeking to do good for humanity, and thereby becoming happy by knowing I am a worthy agent. Mistakes that I make belong to a three dimensional slice of myself, not to my four dimensional self. I learn from my... Sign in to see full entry.
