Boody has taken care of all and where he says his purpose is to live mine is to enjoy and rock living.

Then for question 8, is there any answer than Creator?
Boody, Dt!?

Deepsight's question 8 infers a creator. And if I were to play along I'd say mummy and daddy, due to my knowledge of biology.

Mummy and daddy copulated one night and created buda.

So, buda has supernatural powers? Though seriously the above is rather meaningless, I say.

Triple, please tell everyone that buda has these supernatural powers. If they fear I can disappear them they might perhaps, well, I can't think of anything yet, but I'm certain you telling everyone will come handy for me some day.

No. You haven't directly answered it before now.

Besides, I know that members of AMORC actively hide and deny their affiliation for some reasons I was about to post until I saw this.

Based on that, and given your past activities advertising and promoting the group, it will be difficult to believe you.

And no pure atheist will ever promote the teachings of a private esotrecu group life AMORC.

So, I still don't regard you as an atheist. It's my opinion and don't allow it to bother you.
Seriously, you are funny, but I don't really care if you believe me or not, triple, nor does what you think I am concern me one tiny bit.

Think about it. Of what relevance is your belief whether I am an atheist or not? Does your belief take money from my pocket or put money in it? Or is it that you think you can write whatever you want about me and others will believe you instead of using their own senses?

Do note that I quote the Bible and the Quran too. It will confuse you more, I guess

Are you a member of AMORC?
No, I am not a member of AMORC, and have never paid subscriptions nor dues.

I have answered this question even in this thread when you first posted it, but you can't accept my answer because it invalidates what you want to believe.

I do find their books interesting but not to be believed, as shown by my opposition to reincarnation, which you claim to be a belief of Rosicrucians, and which I categorically oppose, because, when you die you are dead.

A genuine atheist would simply dismiss this book as unsupported fantasy.
buda does not dismiss the Holy Bible nor the Qur'an nor Aesop's Fables, despite them being riddled with "unsupported fantasy".

Please feel free to determine the genuineness of buda's atheism therefore.

Years ago, you advertised AMORC to recruit others. You defended the organisation passionately against its critics.
I think evidence for the above would be you posting the correspondence I had with you when attempting to recruit you, since an advert wouldn't be as effective.

I'll read the rest of your tirade later.

You don't see anything wrong in Eve's going against Yahweh's rules and regulations?
No, I don't. Besides, Eve never received any Yahweh rule and regulations as they were given to Adam before she was formed.

But let's dig deeper shall we, and ask why a Yahweh would create humans both male and female in his own image and tell them to eat every seed bearing fruit, and then create Adam to farm those fruits but not eat of them.

Digging even much deeper would be, who wrote the Yahweh story and why, and what effect does it have on those it programs?

Actually, Nigerians would be fighting to abolish the only white policy, as we should.

Just imagine a university that allows admission only to one tribe or religion. I bet you'd be concerned they might be teaching anti other religion and tribe rhetoric that will be damaging to our society.

They could’ve used their eyes and brains. But hey, hate is a potent drug. As long as they wallowed in their hate, it was easy for him to get them to this point of being between the devil and the deep blue sea.
I think they hate because they were not capable of using their eyes and brains.

It's one thing I love about Britain. We may be secular but love is deeply embedded in our DNA because we gouge on fruits of knowledge, unlike America with Fox.

I'm not particularly concerned what people who don't bother reading my posts, as A001 confessed, think about me, for they are like those who judge books by their covers.

In fact, I don't particularly care what anyone here thinks of me because it shows they don't think much at all.

So who are those Eves that will feed the populace at large the needed knowledge?
The Eves are those who are not afraid to seek knowledge and share it with those who seek not, as Eve did with Adam.

They, those Eves, must however be aware that the consequence is being crucified, as the murder of Jesus and triplechoice here clearly show.

The book is quite interesting but it is full of horror. I don't advice you to read it. Though many books can challenge someone's believe but if you look at the world objectively devoid of emotions, you will find out that the believe that you hold is right to some extent.
"Holding believes" is not a thing I do, because my beliefs are subject to me searching for knowledge so I may know. I'd go even further and claim beliefs blind.

Take what has become the subject of this thread. Triple believes I am promoting Amorc, and blinds himself to all else. I bet I might appear different to him if he didn't believe what he already did, I think.

My beliefs are wrong, or I have not yet bothered to check, is my point. I will not believe the water falling on my head is rain after I look up to the sky and see rain falling, by which I will know instead.

I do not believe gods do not exist because I have perused a lot of the books that promote the existence of gods and found that the existence of gods is no better than the existence of talking animals in Aesop.

The story of the Garden of Eden shows how Adam was made to remain a naked îgnorant slave by believing he would surely die if he sought knowledge, only to be proven false by use her senses knowledge seeking Eve.

Nigeria as a whole is in the grip Adam was in, but thankfully we have lots of Eves to feed them knowledge and set them free from the slavery of ignorance that belief perpetuates.

Based on this advertisement you posted yourself on this forum years ago and the official teachings of AMORC, it's clear that the order's principles are fundamentally incompatible with a strict atheist's viewpoint

The statement s" to the glory of God , the betterment of humanity and the evolution of the soul personality" in the advertisement, are not isolated phrases but they are central to the order's described philosophy.
So, I did not delete what you claimed I deleted after all like you have as evidenced below!? You do know you can also read my numerous post where I specifically quote the Bible and Quran too, as evidence of "incompatible with a strict atheist's viewpoint"? In fact, I have a thread on atheist viewpoints, sort of, a fi think it's as dumb a statement as claiming Christians have a "strict viewpoint".

That blurb is from the book itself, and I think you read only the bread and disregard my many other posts, and this despite you recognising how contradictory I am. That's why you redefine me as a non-atheist so you can justify calling that post an advert, "to the glory of God". Most readers are not like you, and will not read only one of my threads but most of my posts, and will put that in its proper context, coming from a person who categorically states, gods are figments of your imagination.

Many Nigerians are obsessed with Rosicrucians, I find. And I've also found some of their books to be rather interesting. That thread was in the context, to provide their books and information for free. It is not an exhortation to join in any way, and nor have I ever asked anyone to join. In fact, no one has ever contacted me on this issue of joining, probably because of what you post, which delights me, as you help me accomplish my goal.

Pity you had to be a hypocrite and delete your valuable posts though, a crime you accuse me of but have now found evidence to show your claim is untrue.

https://www.nairaland.com/7731741/mission/7#124154889

Makes me want to claim your principles are fundamentally incompatible with a the viewpoint of yourself that you promote, but I'm going to mind my eyes before minding yours.

Readers, I have written more about myself in this thread than almost any other, mainly showing how my own father was sucked into unprofitable subs to Amorc that my dear hard working mother paid for. And Triplechoice and contributors inadvertently, helped complete the mission, for which gratitude due.

Do know that I, and Triplechoice, I bet, are better off for reading quite a lot about Rosicrucians in order to understand, in my case, my own father who was obsessed with this stuff for years like it was a drug, and now I think of it, it might explain my insight of the '[i]Eve saving Adam from ignorant naked slavery
' mantra you'd find in some of my posts, for I think my mother saved my dear father.

Ignorance is not bliss. And it is expensive too. So seek knowing please. It frees, and is usually free.[/i]

I guess you have listened or read thousands of books by now. I'm proud to have read lots of book too. Some very weird and bad like "American Psycho" by Bret Easton Ellis.
One thing about reading is it makes one an unbeliever, I find. You read a book and think this is it, and the next one debunks it. But I guess that depends on what one reads, for it's very possible to read only books that confirm ones bias.

Yeah, I read a lot of books, and lament that others read so few, which is why I share to the extent most of my books are in the local government library in my hometown so my people can read too.

You wouldn't believe I have not read American Psycho.

This contradiction is the reason I maintain that you criticise others for holding beliefs that you yourself subscribe to .
Evidence please!

Personally, I hate beliefs. My opinion is you believe because you have not bothered to do any research so you may know.

Also, do you know how difficult it is for anyone to believe anything I say when I am so contradictory?

Think about it. One minute I make you believe there is god, then the next I am an atheist? Kind of like the Bible with it's contradictions, if you ask me, the best book for atheist creation if read with an open mind.

I don't want to be believed, triple. I specifically adopt a way of writing such that belief is not the first consideration after reading what I post, which one must use one's own mind to try to comprehend instead of stupïdly ïgnorantly just believing.

Ah, reminds me one a novei l read once, unfortunately, i cant find the book. It was a beautiful book!! I was reading it beside the ocean too. The ocean never failed to mirror the glory of the heavens, which made the reading experience sort of trance-like. If only i could remember its name. My damn memory.
It was a novel that showed the cruelty of Christendom and their romance with kings. It was centered around building cathedrals. Ahmm.. some mason was the center of the story..

It was so grammatical. I mean too much grammar for an average Nigerian to comprehend.
Yeah, Heidegger was hard reading too, being German to English translations. But the German depth of thought is phenomenal and make it worth the time and effort. Just trying to comprehend makes one grow, I find.

I'd usually jump on for "average Nigerian", but truth is we are not trained from young to read these sort of books, and so we struggle. In fact, I'd argue we are in primary one of book reading, and our abcd book is our Bible and Quran. I can't wait for us to improve and read a lot more.

I could not read Being and Time, and had to listen to it instead. My mind would wonder of course, but I could have each section read to me as many times as I want, and at least 12 times for each hour of Heidegger. I think I've let him program my mind, even though I'm still trying to figure his Dasein, but I'm at least aware of his Das Man. Funny that both words and the entire book in fact, are connected to bread for me only because one of those hours was always while I made my weekly bread.

I might slog through the physical book one day but doubt it considering how many other authors there are. Perhaps another one of his instead.
