Beyond Beyond Good and Evil

Posted by Father Mapple Moab Adzu III on Mar 28, 2010 in Philosophy, Spirituality, Truth, Universals

If evil can be defined as processes that work against human happiness and natural balance, then we can agree that evil exists and therefore that good also exists, those forces that add to human happiness and natural balance. The effort to live without these notions is a failed experiment, a kind of hubristic aim to […]

The Tao of Akbar #2 – History 2.0

Posted by Akbar Lightning on Feb 1, 2010 in Akbar Lightning, anxiety, Futurism, Philosophy, revelation, Survival, To Save Your Kind, Truth, Universals

History is not dead. However, never before have so many people wanted to perceive it in the present.

After listening to the Terence McKenna talk embedded below I was reminded of something I wrote about 6 years ago, long before I knew of McKenna.

Dear President Obama, This is not a letter I wanted to write as, like many, I have a lot on my plate. However, after hearing your recent Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, I am convinced that, in addition to all that the underclass of this country is expected to give, like our labor for your […]
