brakelite; Thus far I have only read a few sentences of your first paragraph, and, I am not maintaining that we humans are incapable of doing "good"; I have written elsewhere that we possess an inherent sense of right conduct...that deep down we know what is decent... I will read and reflect...

DNB; Your response is sincerely appreciated. You exhibit some self-inconsistencies which I will describe later; for now you supply us the opportunity to reflect somewhat upon and examine the notion of "sin", which, surely, is a vast consideration. However to me "sin" boils down to being a...

Yes, of course, excellent extensive explanation Amadeus. Thank you.

Amadeus; Exactly, I sketch in hope of future realization and action by others. I do have a question for you regarding one scripture you mentioned: Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath...

The considerations about how a human act arises actually means a tremendous earthshaking amount, don't kid yourself.

This is meant for Amadeus (the website did not appear to work properly): Exactly, I sketch in hope of future realization and action by others. I do have a question for you regarding one scripture you mentioned: Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given...

Indeed, and it is interesting to live. My understanding of Deity is a simple hierarchical notion in which that which is higher than one's self is deity; and, I know it appears absurd and ridiculous to say that I am deity, although, in so far as I have mastered understanding regarding how we...

Amadeus; I am only able to describe in writing the actual inability of law and punishment to constitute civilization and explain why law in combination with punishment is not a path to human civilization, and, describe what the correct path is. I have written said descriptions and placed them...

Helen; As I write I notice that I am using the same words over and over in all of my different sentences; and, I am using the same ideas over and over; so, I just realized that I should compile a list of definitions for each word and, an explanation of each idea, separate from the essays; for...

Amadeus; I totally appreciate your ascribing riches to me; however, on the one hand you set forth that a rich man cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven, and, on the other hand, you suggest that with my particular ilk of infinite riches, I could possibly transcend Christ's achievements; which is...

I cannot remember the name of the college at all; impressive that you know the names. I'll never ever forget the size of that wad of money the fellow so readily pulled out of his pocket for me, it could have chocked a horse, he was a giving Christian, and so was everyone else there. I was so...

I flew out to Dunedin once to attend the college Billy Graham graduated from, but they were not an accredited college and I was on the GI Bill; so, I was stuck there and had no money. Twenty one years old. The president of the college asked me what the airfare was back to my home in CA and...

So that backward bigots might see the vastness of possibilities of critical thinking for exposing error among unthinking ingrates.

It is a relief to see that that is a wrong number and that you are unable to successfully invade my private life. However if you are in fact local, and are a beer drinking Christian, I would not be antisocial, though I am beware of strangers.

Why such an interest in me? If you are not joshin me, what are the last two digits of my phone number?

I have never written a book. I have only written essays. I am not "a poor guy"; I have an estate in radically beautiful rolling wooded knobs of Kentucky, and am surrounded by friends on adjoining properties. My phone is out of order up here in the ivory tower at the highest hilltop on the...

Sound!? What Sound? I am not making any sound. I am not "trying", I am. When are you going to leave me out of it and focus on the positions I am presenting? You continually error by arguing against the man, not his position. I do not write to impress, rather, to put forward my original...

''So, then, the question upsurges: What ilk of what-is-not is efficient for the salvation of mankind? And, the answer to said question is that it is our very own human ontological freedom which is pattern, mode, and means of human salvation, for human ontological freedom is a determinative...

Amadeus; Thank you kindly for such a thoughtful and lengthy response. Yes, it is a pipe dream to imagine a future transpiring in the mode I am thinking of; now, in the state I live in one can lower the boom on a home invader, and, supposedly. if someone puts you in the fear of great bodily...

In Berkeley California, an enlightened community, it is now unlawful to have a fire in one's fireplace; which is an outrage, for just looking into flames is an edifying Zen experience. It made me realize how lost the citizenry there is, in terms of failing to realize that law is not as absolute...
