The other day someone asked me why I was not going to have kids in my lifetime. I thought to myself of the hardships of life and the sacrifices that people make and realized that life is not easy. Indeed, there are a whole bunch of problems that people deal with in their life, as well as a whole bunch of people out there running around who are a royal pain in the butt. - Why Must We Die & Something for Nothing By : Dennis Siluk
We got something for nothing, and we call it life, and somewhere along the line we didn't appreciate it, I do believe; perhaps now the cost is Death, it puts a value back onto life.There was a time I do believe, in our far past, when life as we see it today in the physical sense, was forever, our cells, and chromosomes did not cascade, and thus bring us to old age, and namely death. But death of course turned that around. - Why Does Leibniz Reject Empiricism? By : Aaron Schwartz

- Why Do Anything or Join Any Cause? By : Lance Winslow
Many folks latch onto a cause and volunteer to help, most likely this gives them a sense of purpose. Generally, they get caught up in the contrived chaos and controversy and join in all the sound and fury, but to what avail. The fact is you can work your whole life on some worthy cause and spend all your time, money and energy fighting against the artificial barriers and someone on the other side who is fighting equally to stop your progress. - Why Are There So Many Worthless Stupid Humans in the World?

By : Lance Winslow
Mankind continues to populate the planet and yet has built huge civilizations which are not sustainable. Humans have built over some of the most fertile land in all the world with giant cities of concrete and roads. Much of mankind's strength is the ability to plan ahead and to plant crops and as the ancient days turned to agricultural work and became common, so too did man's ability to grow in strength. Where did our methods of agriculture began? - When the Mind Stops, Time Stands Still By : Bhaskar Banerjee
In the case of an average person, in whom the mind is constantly active, desires and thoughts pour out without a stop, the time between two thoughts is very small, very very small. For those who are not so often assailed by desires, the thought traffic being less, kshana is extended. In the case of an enlightened being, who is in a state of no-mind, in whom there are no thoughts, kshana is infinite. - What, Who is A Mother? By : Shubhanyu Jain

Narcissistic personality disorder is a personality disorder that is shown by having a grandiose state of mind in young adults.

There are two basic theories. - What If Peace Broke Out? By : Steve Ryals
I recently realized that I have a story. This particular story says that in order to be "spiritual" I need to stay above the fray of messy human affairs such as politics. The truth is, in spite of my best efforts, I do have strongly held views on any number of issues. I just usually keep them to myself. But something happened the other day that forced me to reconsider my position. - What Happened to Strength and Honor and Love of Thy Country? By : Lance Winslow

The international terrorists want to make Americans fear them and they often use high-profile terrorist acts to scare us into submission in their attempt to serve their political will over us.

By : Lance Winslow
Western Philosophy has deep roots that go back as far a Babylonian and Egyptian days and it has a strong secondary foundation of Greek Philosophy as well. Yet much of the philosophy after than tends to come from a religious slant where God created man and this realm, as a universal given. If you look at the names of the dead white men that we study in Western Philosophy these comments will seem more obvious to you. - We are Super Alien Beings in Virtual Reality Dreams By : Lance Winslow

By : Lance Winslow
The Famous Philosopher Nietzsche introduced the concept of reality as perspective based and seemed to believe that no matter how hard one tries they cannot imagine all points of view. Of course this thinking is now very much part of the 'point of view' argument that is given when folks disagree with you and insist that they are right, even when they are wrong. - Was Ipuwer Hypomanic? By : Lance Winslow
One trait we often see with very successful people in various subsectors and industries is that they will often say that other people around them are lazy and just do not try. They claim this is why they are so successful, not because they are great or superstars in their own right, although many of them are, but rather they state that humans have poor work ethic. - Walls: Why Do We Create Them? By : Joy Cagil
Man attaches walls to everything in his life. He is the mason who builds the walls, only to whine about them later. - Unless You Have Passion, You Cannot Have Compassion By : Bhaskar Banerjee
Passion is the energy without which nothing can be achieved. Pursuing one's passion therefore is the only way, the driving force. But it has to be given a conscious direction, so that it frees you from the throes of attachment. How many times we have known that our passionate attachments have led to unhappiness. So this kind of passion is of the negative kind, which one has to be able to differentiate. This is what we call soul-searching, meditation, Dhyana, call it by any name - focusing on the aspect which identifies oneself to be responsible for our misery. - Two Theories Of Cognitive Development By : Sharon White
"Cognitive development is the development of the mind - the part of the brain that is used for recognizing, reasoning, knowing and understanding" Many specialists have studied this area of development over the years, including, Piaget, Bruner, Vygotsky and Skinner. There are also approaches to cognitive development which are based on comparing the human mind to a computer, rather than being based on the ideas a single theorist. The theory being, that humans break down problems into a series of small steps, in a similar way to that of a computer. As I mentioned previously, Jean Piaget, a Swiss biologist and Lev Vygotsky, a Russian schoolteacher and psychology lecturer are two specialists who developed theories in this area, both of which have had an impact on teaching and learning in the early years. However, although both were constructivists, that is they shared the view that the child is an active learner; there were differences in their ideas. - Two Philosophies In One Lifetime- The Work Of Ludwig Wittgenstein By : Shane Magee

I somehow find serious people often have their hearts almost closed to humour and are, therefore, in a way, quite pitiable. Once, during the course of a discussion about how some people have this repelling quality about their very presence, I quoted a witty remark from someone I had heard or picked up, and in line with the topic of the discussion saying, "Yes sir, there are people who cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go." - To Love Evil By : Eduardo Reisinho
Evil is powerful. It's part of the cruelty of life. That's why the love of evil is so disseminated. But the love of evil doesn't involve necessarily esoteric cults. There are other much more common ways of doing evil through some forms of love. - Three Definitions Of Philosophy By : Emily Crawford

Auguste Comte brought us a philosophical theory that ALL human thought is divided into 3-categories; Religious, Scientific and Philosophical. Many more modern philosophers believe this is too simple. Let me introduce a challenge to the dead Auguste Comte who lived in the mid-1800s, who unfortunately he is not with us to accept this debate; what about the thoughts of a human baby, low IQ human or even a chimpanzee primate, whose brain works nearly the same. - Thomas Nagel And His Article On Death By : Emily Crawford

Most all Americans know that Thomas Jefferson was a great man, a thinking man, but so many people do not know he died broke. A good book to read on the subject is; Saving Monticello, as it describes the Levy Family who moved into the Estate after Thomas Jefferson died and restored it the mansion and landscaping too. - There is Nothing Fixed but Change By : Lance Winslow
There are many famous quotes in history attributed to famous people. One of Einstein's most famous quote was; "The Only Constant is Change" and it is hard to deny such a profound statement.

We are losing our Ice sheets in Antarctica, and the Pacific and Indian Oceans are having their toll on mankind, and good ole mother earth, and we are sucking the oil out of her like draining the whirlpool dry, plus, weather temperatures are unpredictable along the Ring of Fire, and throughout the Gulf of Mexico, and from the East to West Coast of the United States, and Western Europe. The Arabs have enough oil to ignite WWIII, as they have been trying for some time now. We are letting psychopathic rouge countries like North Korea and Iran, acquire the Atomic Bomb, while the United Nations tries to pacify the situation, and let them Black Mail, the world.

Thought is the opposite of true meditation and in our world it hardly ever stops. We need a new religion, a new philosophy and therefore, a new awareness of the world, fit for this twenty first century.

I read the other day that astronomers have spotted a huge nebula in our galaxy in the shape of a double helix. - The Truth About Governments By : Lance Winslow
Whereas the United States of Americas Government is about the most transparent around, it is not completely honest. How can it be you ask? Well because it is made up of members of our society; humans. Humans are deceptive creatures and dishonest too and since they make up the government you cannot expect it to be totally honest, it simply is not possible. - The Thinning Veil – Will It Completely Disappear? By : Greg Gourdian
Those who are interested in the steady increase in spiritual or psychic phenomena should know that many attribute this to a phenomenon they describe as "the thinning of the veil". The veil protects us from being overloaded by discarnate spirits. For some people this raises an alarm, they wonder that if the veil is there to protect us and if it really is thinning, can it disappear altogether? What will happen to us if the veil were to one day disappear completely? - The Symbol Of A Nation By : Else Cederborg
In my country, Denmark, we used to believe that our flag, the DANNEBROG, was given to us by God on 15 June 1219. On that day our king, Valdemar II (1202-41), who was a Crusader tried to christianize the Estonian people by his sword. However, he was surprised by the brave Estonians who were about to win the battle when the Danes regained hope and strength by the news that a flag, namely the Dannebrog, had fallen from the skies as a git from God. - The Superultramodern Scientific Explanation of the Fundamental Physical Forces By : Kedar Joshi
The purpose of this article is to bring out the deficiencies in the modern / ultramodern scientific explanation of the fundamental physical forces, and to explain the now unexplained forces with superultramodern science, esp. the NSTP (Non – Spatial Thinking Process) theory. The first part states the particle theorists’ explanation of the fundamental forces of attraction as well as repulsion, and presents the deficiencies. The second part then explains the forces with the NSTP theory. - The Superultramodern Physics By : Kedar Joshi
The purpose of this article is to bring out 'Superultramodern Physics,' in brief. The first part states some flaws as well as some serious theoretical shortcomings (in explaining natural phenomena) in modern / ultramodern physics. The second part states the NSTP (Non – Spatial Thinking Process) theory and shows how the theory explains the phenomena now not appropriately explained by modern / ultramodern physics. And the third, and the last, part describes the most important technological application of the NSTP theory, namely 'Superultramodern Engineering.' - The Superultramodern Doubt By : Kedar Joshi
The superultramodern doubt’ is the first and the most basic principle of my 'Superultramodern science / philosophy'........ - The Superultramodern Biology By : Kedar Joshi
The purpose of this article is to bring out ‘The Superultramodern Biology’, in brief. The superultramodern biology is essentially the application of the NSTP (Non – Spatial Thinking Process) theory, a key component of superultramodern science / philosophy, in biological science. The main product of the application is the idea of ‘Non – Spatial Natural Selection (NSNS)’, which is the ‘NSTP Theoretical Evolution’. NSNS is a result of the NSTP theoretical solution of problems like ‘the problem of cell development and differentiation’, ‘the problem of newly minted protein folding’, etc. The first part of this article states the problems as well as the solutions, and the second part discusses the ‘Non – Spatial Natural Selection (NSNS)’, and compares it with the ‘Spatial Natural Selection (SNS)’. - The Superultramodern (SUM) Solipsism - The Simpler Universal Design, The Personal Philosophical Ques By : Kedar Joshi
The superultramodern solipsism is a strong metaphysical semi-solipsistic position constituted of some ideas in superultramodern science and philosophy. The first idea or strand is the NSTP theoretical metaphysical semi-solipsism, the position that within the semi-idealistic framework of the NSTP theory 'I' and 'the superhuman mind' are the only material entities that exist, for the non-existence of other non-superhuman minds simply makes the universal design (i.e. the superhuman engine) simpler, as the engine needs no additional intelligence-information to create a variety of specific spatial illusions through multiple (non-superhuman) NSTPs. The second strand further sees the superhuman design and or designer, through an astrological framework, as a personal philosophical questioning supermind, the mind which, apparently being highly reasonable, has further no good reason to create tremendous suffering through the existence of other non-superhuman minds which are simply unable to answer its profound philosophical questions. The third strand is a composite of two mutually complementary basic feelings that this miraculous thing called consciousness exists, and that it is particularly 'I' who is conscious, and thus other entities, at least other non-superhuman entities, might be unconscious, and that Truth would always be different from how it commonsensically appears to be. - The Spirit of Art By : Dennis Siluk
Art is a great thing, I love to write, to play the piano, the guitar, poetry, drawing, painting, I've done all my own art work for my books, or almost all. I do not have other people's pictures on my walls; I have my own photographs from around the world, I take them. I took other's down years ago and said: if I want them up there, I'll go to the places and take them myself, and I did. So I love art in many forms. The artist, literary art, to relieve, and refresh the mind, revives the soul, form an ecstasy, majesty of thought. - The Role Of Geographic Profiling In Serial Violent Crime Investigation By : David A Webb

Without a sense of wonder, people and civilizations decline.It is not really clear whether humanity developed intelligence because it was curious or its curiosity developed its intelligence. It could very well be a combination of both, with our natural genetic capacity for inquiry stimulating more complex and interconnected neural nets and bigger brains. - The Practitioners Or The Theories Of Western Philosophy; Which Is To Blame? By : Lance Winslow
There are many who are critical of Western Philosophy and yet those who have spent a life-time studying the subject remind the critics that it is not the philosophy that is wrong, rather it is often misused by its practitioners. - The Political and Capitalist Elite and the Misconceptions By : Lance Winslow

Many people sent nasty emails to me, and yet the article was designed to help them. - The Philosophy of Physics is of Interest Indeed By : Lance Winslow
So many folks have ideas in of philosophy, including scientists and physicists. That's right physicists, they often think about such topics as philosophy or politics. As an Online Think Tank Coordinator often I find this to be the case and so it is intriguing to hear what they have to say. In fact you might be surprised at the diverse topics our Think Tankers think on. Generally someone will pose a question and then you think to yourself, how on Earth did they come up with that concept? - The Philosopher King for President By : Lance Winslow

This article attempts to bring out ‘The Superultramodern Unification’. It is basically the idea that the mysterious phenomena underlying most of the most challenging problems in modern / ultramodern science / philosophy are, in fact, multiple aspects of a singular structure, which the NSTP (Non – Spatial Thinking Process) theory (a major component of superultramodern science / philosophy) is the unique theoretical representation of. The NSTP theory thus unifies and demystifies the phenomena, and solves the problems. The first part of this article presents the solutions to two of the problems viz. Zeno’s paradoxes and the problem of quantum non-locality. The second part states the remaining problems. And the third, and the last, part states some other challenging problems, solvable with the NSTP theory, which are not directly connected to the aforementioned structure. - The New Breed - Content to Infect Mankind With Ignorance By : Dennis Siluk
People are content with ignorance nowadays (it's just the way it is, turned out to be), go off on a tangent over simple things, and overlook the big; clumsy they are, misunderstood they say (often); oh yes they are, if you are saying no to this. A good scientist nowadays (likened to many of us now), is too content with changing old (and as they say: 'worn out,' unproven discoveries), because of new - The Nature Of Religious Belief And Dialogue About Religion By : Shane Magee
Religion and spirituality have existed almost as long as mankind has, and yet the debate still rages as to whether it is a force for good or bad in the world. Some of the world's most inspiring actions have been performed in the name of religion, as have some of its worst atrocities, not to mention the tension between people who do and do not profess a belief, and also of course between people of different beliefs. - The Metaphysical Semi-Solipsism - The NSTP Theoretical Solipsism By : Kedar Joshi
The metaphysical semi-solipsism is a position that within the semi-idealistic framework of the NSTP (Non – Spatial Thinking Process) theory, "I" and "the superhuman mind" are the only material entities that exist. - The Melted Minds of the Masses By : Lance Winslow

This article rationally explores the concept of past lives and the inter-life soul, called the Mega-Life. While each human individual lives out a mortal life, beyond that exists a cycle of reused souls, each chain being the Mega Life. While this may seem purely theoretical or mystical, a human being's point in the Mega Life is important to determining their present characteristics. - The Magic of Keys By : Toni Star

This work attempts to describe the nature of the evolution of the non-spatial (material) universe, the universe as seen through the semi-idealistic framework of the NSTP (Non - Spatial Thinking Process) theory. As per the NSTP theory, the existence of the superhuman mind (i.e. NSTPs) is responsible for the orderly existence of the non-superhuman mind(s) (i.e. NSTPs).These superhuman NSTPs, representing the empirical laws or design of the (non-spatial) material universe, could be called as the design (superhuman) NSTPs. This design came into existence due to some designer (superhuman) mind (i.e. NSTP), which no longer exists. Further, there should be some other design (superhuman) NSTPs responsible for the orderly existence of the designer (superhuman) NSTP, and so on. Such is supposed to be the nature of the evolution of the non-spatial (material) universe. - The Eucharist - A New Perspective By : Michael Angelo Massa
