Just for transparency sake and a little humor, me and the op not only live in the same state, we live in the same city.

Re: EMERGENCY
To make a long story short; I was hiking my hunting spots and found an old mineshaft I have never noticed before. I went into it and found a wooden box that had symbols carved into it. Inside the box was a leather bound book. This book is very very dark. I'm not even superstitious that much and loo...

Re: The biggest cause of suffering today
I apologize. In my view this is the ultimate statement of understanding that is the goal of spiritual magick. I thought it too important to not say, and so I simple put it in one phrase. A lot of my posts have been consideration of this idea, and if I could turn it all into one thread, this would b...

Re: How To Evaluate Sources
In what way? As long as you aren't going after someone, you are fine? There is a difference between I think your points of x, y, and z are wrong because of a, b, and c and saying "you're wrong because you are a monkey whose head is up their ass". Otherwise I'm not understanding your hesit...

Re: How To Evaluate Sources
Thats an empirical example that could not be for example,applied to an event in history. Then did I misread your OP, I didn't see it specifying history (which as you point out is quite a bit different in terms of research)? Well.my example was based on history ie Hutton on the Restoration but the o...

Re: How To Evaluate Sources
That is because 99% of the time "oral tradition" is incorrect. Is that quantifiable? In terms of saying its 99%, I was just reading some anthropology that talks about the apparent accuracy of some larger events, I think it had to do with Aborigines? I can't write anything more than that, ...

Re: How To Evaluate Sources

Re: How To Evaluate Sources
If you look at this from a scientific point of view, it isn't so much more sources = more authority = more right, as much as in theory, if multiple INDEPENDENT people observe the same or similar phenomenon, it gives credibility that such a phenomenon exists. However it doesn't "prove" it e...

Re: Why do you study the occult?
There are a few different reasons why someone might not "feel" something for the pain or suffering of another. One, they could be incapable of empathy, placing themselves in another perspective and feel the emotions they would feel. Two, they may incapable of feeling emotions for themselve...

When writing out massive amounts of text, I recommend using headers breaking down each sections. Such as this Then text Or another header like this It may be too large though. Using Lists can help when you can break down the structure to succinct points. [*]List piece 1[/*] [*]2[/*] [*]3[/*] try 1 t...

We have a group of people who rotate based on life being busy to handle moderation and administration. And I do not see an issue being more of a lurker than the poster I used to be long ago.

Re: Spirit Science video creator is an accused rapist
Title has been edited to "an accused rapist". It is a fine line between free speech and defamation in regards to accusations of things like rape. In this case I'm going to allow it because the conversation has been enough to show the dangers of both accusing an innocent person, ruining the...
