    Did the church ever really create depictions of john's vision of christ, specifically from revelation 1:13-16?

    Very specifically, from revelation 1:13-16, there are some very idiosyncratic image descriptions of jesus, and it occurred to me that I had never actually seen created depictions of the specific imagery here described of him, as coming from any christian tradition: 13 And in the midst of the...

    What's For Dinner?

    I ate the usual stuff, but I can only half taste it.. still a little sick, but maybe tomorrow everything will be normal. I have a feeling things will be normal tomorrow

    I’m a failed musician.

    In one perspective on this, I am a 'failed musician' in that I have not made much money with it, though I had a few chances though. I definitely am not doing music for a living, but I don't want to give up on trying to find a way to eventually have it supplement my income. You can go on youtube...

    A brief introduction

    Good morning. For the past 2 years, I decided to study the tarot, and practice a variation of the wim hof method. These I consider to be spiritual things, that seem to be gradually affecting me. I don't seem to desire a label for what I am. It seems that I wish to go deeper into myself, to know...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    I don't know if you're American, but the American solution is to have territories divided into states, under a federal holding of land divisions, obviously. That way, the conflict between the different demographic growth of different groups, who may not agree with each other, is highly minimized...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    I think that modern technology, from the printing press to the search engine, has arguably marked out the production of a seriously more tangible from of history, yes, if that it was you're driving at. We don't have any video footage of Genghis Khan or his armies, so in a sense, there is layer...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    Like I said, I am skeptical about the use of the term oppression. I think different forces can oppress people, but I just don't know it can be simplified to 'group a oppresses group b,' unless you know, actual enslavement is occurring. It just is very, very simple - too simple of a way to think...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    Well, I sort of wonder if I am like lone citizen in America who generally seems to admire that country, with some exceptions, for actual secular reasons. The rest of the Left, (if I am on the left, who knows) obviously is not really on board with that. By this, I mean that is obvious, to me...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    I don't know that I've ever heard the phrase 'material moral failing.' Is there a political theory where that is mentioned specifically? Does it mean something like a failure to use material conditions that are otherwise sufficient? And in your statement that you contrast against this, I assume...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    I suppose I was optimistic that such people are rare in modern thinkers, who form the foundation of general society

    Hamas must be eradicated

    You could still do it, you'd just word it slightly differently, because the ontology would be different. There would be more of a stress on the 'impersonal' material forces, of a sort, that took the form of present forms. Alternatively, you would have to be prepared to argue that there is...

    Suppose Israel Destroys Hamas In Gaza.....

    You don't think that some of that would work in this case?

    Suppose Israel Destroys Hamas In Gaza.....

    I may go back and forth with political stances on economics, but in the end, I do have some sympathies with capitalism and libertarian thinking. Sure, social conditioning does likely play a great role in human life. But if tomorrow, everyone in that region started thinking like a libertarian for...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    Well the nazi's came into existence, and probably had those same kinds of feelings, but no one today would say they were justified in having them. But if your economy stinks because of lost wars and inflation, then that is where a population is probably is at risk for contracting general...

    Hamas must be eradicated

    They didn't have the power to. But if you gave any of those guys who paraglided in a nuclear trigger, my guess is that they'd all use it without compunction. Israel on the hand, probably has nukes but doesn't use them. There's an abstract leap you have to make with this.
