We all learn since birth, but do we learn how to organize it all. School arithmatic teaches us all that we need to manage money. Is money more important than knowledge?

If we cannot program the memory of our mobile phones, then how good is it. Likewise if we dont program our memories how good is our memory to us. Or those who know how to program our memories are enslaving us?

Any way leadership lies beyond where teaching reaches!

If people get into a self improvement…

I come here to get sound advice...I separated from my partner of six years several months ago.  She moved out a week ago.  We are still friends and still communicate with one another.  I work at a boarding school where the people here are so close that its like a home away from home or a second family.  I have the awful task of breaking this news to my students in about a week.  I'm not sure how they will handle it.  I am also a rookie at the dating game because I was not allowed to date… Continue

How can people say they are atheists and still believe in stupid pseudoscience?

 

Is this a Halloween party where you just wear an atheist costume and you are done? For these people, is atheism just a fashionable choice?

 

Does anyone know where I can find episodes of 'Exploring Psychic Powers Live' by James Randi?

 

They used to be on Google Video but lately I could not find them. Also any other TV series about skepticism would help just as well.

 

Thanks,

Shashank.

According to a new report, in Britain, backed by the Archbishop of Canterbury. 

I wonder sometimes, if there was no religion, would the hairless apes of Planet Earth simply latch onto some other ideal or philosophy that they would be willing to kill for? Someone once told me that faith was the culprit in clashes like this one rather than belief in a god or a religion.



Faith can be placed in anything I suppose, whether it is a person, place, thing, idea, or philosophy. However, it seems to… Continue

Christianity has an awesome propaganda machine that regularly pumps out information, misinformation and down right lies, which the media regularly promotes as gospel rather than investing a little critical thought and just a smidgeon of skepticism (default mode for real journalists).



A good example of poor journalism, sloppy work and plain laziness comes in a story picked up by the national media from the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. As a research organization, Pew's… Continue

This essay was just published on State of Formation, primarily a site for inter-religious discussion among theists in educational institutions.  The premise won't appeal to every atheist (or theist of course) but those of us who live and work with theists need to find some new, creative ways of presenting a viable alternative.  This is one I offer.

A video response on the question of free will:

When I was a little boy in Primary (elementary) school, I remember every once in a while we would be called into a special assembly. It was only every couple of months, maybe three times a year, but it was a day we, the children, would always be excited about. They were our favourite days. On special assembly day a travelling puppet theatre troupe would come and entertain us, it would take up all morning and would always have us rolling around with laughter. There were two puppet masters, a…

So, we(the family), got a new Desktop(yaaaay). That I have to share with EVERYONE(boooo).

 

Nothing really big happened except I actually drove a car(well, SUV) and mom is getting the hint that BWPC and me equals more fodder for therapy. So there is a win.

Reclaiming a life after abuse(spiritual or otherwise) is quite arduous..but I feel as if I don't get to know myself now and stand on my own two feet that I'll always be a broken rod. It sucks living in the country…

I have not read it yet, but fellow freethinking pilgrim Sam Harris has recommended a book on Buddhism, saying:

"Buddhist doctrines about meditation, compassion, and well-being have begun to greatly enrich the scientific study of the human mind--but we have long needed a careful analysis of the philosophical merits of these ideas. In The Bodhisattva's Brain, Flanagan has delivered it in fine style. This is an unusually wise and useful book." --Sam…

"Jesus paid the price for you" is probably the second dumbest thing I have ever heard. What do you mean "paid the price?" What the fuck did he buy me? Funny, I don't recall asking him to do ANYTHING for me. Now this asshole wants to be repaid? Blow me!
