"Nobody is smarter than you are. And what if they are? What good is their understanding doing you?" Terence Mckenna I believe he was a humanist, although not a particularly secular one. |

what i think is deeply immoral, what i think is not okay is to tell a child that if they are not good then when they die they will burn in hell forever. that seems to me to be a mental child abuse and an utter shame. ••TellThemToBeGood•• ••AndThatsAll•• #show them goodness 3 Likes 2 Shares |

The victims mindset dilutes the human potential, by not accepting personal responsibilities for our circumstances, we greatly reduce our power to change it |

"Human history has become too much a matter of dogma taught by 'professionals' in ivory towers as though it's all fact. Actually, much of human history is up for grabs. The further back you go, the more that the history that's taught in the schools and universities begins to look like some kind of faerie story." Graham Hancock |

Morality is not distinctively christian, any more than it's islamic. morality is human it belongs to no ism, and does not depend for a foundation upon the supernatural, or upon any book or creed. Morality is itself a foundation |

[b] In planet earth: We live and we die we laugh, we cry we work, we rest we eat, we go hungry we have pains and joys happiness and sadness we shed tears and we smile we struggle and we survive we hope and we despair we feel bad and feel better afterwards we are mortals and nothing makes life more beautiful than that. it is in all this that we find balance and the essence of living. . . if you remove the cry, hunger, sadness they won't be balance cus their counterparts won't exist. it baffles me why people tend to love the unknown and ignore the known. heaven and hell are unknown nobody bleeping know if they are real but we all know of one reality and that is EARTH, our planet, our home. EARTH is known, earth is real and earth is the only reality that is truer than true. you can put ur hope in the unknown but please let the good in you help rebuild the earth and make it better. lets us rebuild our home and make it better and peaceful. Gaia(earth) needs goodness and peace gaia is beautiful. gaia does not deserve to be destroyed. love earth and save earth.. #We Owe it To Our Children And Ourselves [/b] By JOHNYDON 1 Like |
