Transcend the dualistic fallacy

[ArmsMerchant]

You know, good vs evil, man vs woman, Dems vs reps, etc. Given that we have bilateal symmetry, perhaps the old DF was inevitable. At best, it is a useful fiction.

At worst, it is a belief which is not just limiting, but crippling.

At the highest metaphysical level, there is no difference between good and evil. Once you understand that Hitler is in heaven, you will begin to understand this. And the nature of god.

Hmm, do you not think hitlers soul is re-incarnated in another body?

It's easy to make judgements but for all we know Hitler could have been a truly wise muthafukka and way close to the ultimate human goal.

Dualist theologies are amazing. i love the fact that everything has an opposite. against popular beliefe these 'opposites' are not opposite persay they are more based on vissual/thought induced differences. in the end all opposites cancel eachother out in perfect harmony.

most religions have condemed females for their partaking in the 'forbidden' fruit. yet women bring forth new life and without them, if any1 should be blamed it should be adam for his truthfullness to god about eve bitting the fruit.

the way the universe was made must have been created by anti-matter being converted into mater. so therefore there must have been some force, if not a spiritual entity, god or not.

in the end the greeks have a more sensible study of religion than catholicism.

we should mostly pray to one symbol, the star of david, this is a symbol of perfect unity (regular pyramid and upside down pyramid placed on top of eachother = male/female symolism).

All this is basic Taoism/Buddhism

Look at the Tao Te Ching

It is quite dualistic that goes into singularize if that makes any sense.

I cant find a decent translation of the Tao Te Ching right now but will post one later

It's possible. My last life, I ran one of the camps, and was a sadistic prick. Actually, the statement was meant more as a metaphor (he said defensively) since in my book, these is no literal heaven, as least not in the Xian sense.

in another incarnation i was either an dog or a human in a concentration camp laboratory(it seemed nazi, but that might be coz there is so much publicity surrounding those particular atrocities in this life.)

forgive me, but i can't help noticing your posts have been taking an increasingly benign form.

i may be way off the money here,ArmsMerchant,but are you undergoing some sort of epiphany? or did i catch you at your most rumbustuous when i arrived at totse (admittedly 2.5 seconds ago)?

Tell you the truth, I HAVE been getting a tad mellower since 1) getting off the sauce, and 2) getting a LOT of therapy for my personality disorder (NPD).

Still, I sometimes forget that I am enlightened (or just forget who the adult is here) and rant like any other asshole.
