The Seven Hermetic Principles

[Bodhi]

Describe in detail what your belief is as far as the creation process.

 

[bambu]

I don't think that I will be able to get into real details for a few days.... I am vacationing with the fam....

I grew up in a military family...spent my younger years in Europe and Oceania...

Came here (South) in a baptist family, at Sunday school I remember questioning my instructor about "Jesus returning to all people of the world, at the same time...judgement day"..... because I was privilege to knowledge of the time zones at a young age, I knew something was up....

I have been questioning since grade school....

Detailing my philosophy about the creation process would take more time than I have now....

But it is similar to my agnostic understanding of religion,

I questioned early and often... and I was pretty hardcore on the aliens theories for years, after that was no longer valid to me, I supported evolution, until that was no longer valid for me.

Since then I have been reading reading every creation story that I can get my hands on...

I also indulge in philosophy

The Vedas, Upanishads, The Way, Djeheuty's vision

I have dedicated my life to understanding these mysteries, but alas....

The more you know, the more you know you don’t know.

—Aristotle

A gift and a curse... At the same damn time....

Does natural selection stop with humans, are we it? Or does evolution apply to the races?

Its kind of a loaded question, if you say evolution stops with humans then you also stop evolution, from what I understand this would be impossible or divine. On the other hand if you apply this process to the races, you begin to tread on thin ice with the "evidence" of modern European supremacy.

HOTEP

Tackling this question first requires that we understand evolution and how evolution occurs within a population.

Considering the fact that the human species is spread across the entire globe in mixed environments, it's difficult to think that one particular race will evolve greatly over another. Human beings are fated to evolve together. Also, with what we understand about evolution, we know that rapid changes can occur in small and isolated populations. Natural selection being the mechanism I guess you could say, by which changes that are beneficial to that population are able to continue into future generations; for instance, the bat being able to evolve off the ground and take flight. From my understanding, the human population is too large for any rapid changes to occur, ESPECIALLY within one race. However, we are still evolving, but slightly (like as an example, immunity to diseases, life span, and height), and as ONE species, together.

 

[Bodhi]

That's why I wanted you to answer my original question that you never really provided an answer for: Where is the evidence that whites are superior to blacks?

 

[Bodhi]

My theory is that whites will become extinct over time. As stated previously, blacks are better equipped to escape an evolutionary dead end. From my understanding of evolution, changes can occur and create branches that eventually end, for example Neanderthals. My theory stems from the idea that whites were "created" from blacks, being a branch that lacks the specific things that blacks carry and are able to continue because of. My other statement was that any "lead" whites have was created purposely, in example, the destruction and pillage of Africa, use of science, propaganda, and any tool able to prevent black people from realizing their true nature and being.

 

[Bodhi]

Also human beings are, like I said, through interacial relationships, creating mixed races. Black is dominate.

 

[Bodhi]

I think you misunderstood, though. I wasn't asking you for your background. I want to know what your theory of intelligent design is. Where does the universe come from? What is this intelligence that you credit for creation? How did creation take place?

 

[Bodhi]

And since you are an agnostic, I will pose another question. An opinion that I've read is that agnosticism is intellectual fence sitting. I guess that you would say atheism amounts to arrogance. But I don't want to put words in your mouth. What do you have to say about that? And since atheism is lack of belief, agnosticism is lack of positive belief, both are imo forms of unbelief. Why agnostic as opposed to atheist or non theist?

I still dont see why you disregard the "evidence" that I already posted from the pioneer fund... this may not blatantly state what you are looking for, but as I said these studies are now morphing to bio demography which is less conspicuous....



This is probabaly more of what you are looking for,

I will get at your other comments when I get some more time....

There are several classifications for agnostics, I tend to fall in the agnostic theism camp....

You are right.... I do believe that atheism amounts to arrogance, unless you have some "proof" that there is no higher power in this universe....

I think you misunderstood, though. I wasn't asking you for your background. I want to know what your theory of intelligent design is. Where does the universe come from? What is this intelligence that you credit for creation? How did creation take place?

The answers that you seek are, in military terms,"above your paygrade."

Would you like to take a stab at some of this "evidence?"

 

[Bodhi]

Unbelief in a supernatural being someone else made up to explain the world around us is not arrogance. It is thinking differently. If you cant answer my questions, I'm going to assume the question is above your paygrade. And I don't click links, sorry. Copy and paste please. But before you do, answer my posts and stop skipping around and answering what you feel like. Talk to me in your own words.

 

[bambu]

Nigga please.....

I have tried to have an intelligent convo with you about evolution which sprang from a question you asked me about Wayne Chandler's Ancient Future.

But you do not have a clue about the theory that you blindly support. Kind of the same thing you have to say about most religions....

You don't click links???? you could have stated that from the jump.....

Feel free to bask in your ignorance. However, you should be aware of the theories that you support. Least you end up like, "ignorant followers of religion."

 

[Bodhi]

Yeah thats what I thought. More of nothing. Have a nice day

 

[bambu]

Is Brooklyn in the house???.....not any longer...

[Bodhi]

Is Brooklyn in the house???.....

You asked a gang of questions.....

My answers may seem snide, specifically the bold. However, they are sincere....Hence agnosticism

Not that I do not have personal beliefs, you said you didn't care for backgrounds .... I have been sharing my views on intelligent design from the jump and all over the R&R....

 

[Bodhi]

Answer them please. And reply to my response to your o.g. Question

 

[The True Flesh]

Remember when there were all those people on this board promoting that whole "the Jesus story is the same as the Horus story" stuff and the true educated people came in here and sh*tted all over that nonsense?

.......Ahh good times.

PEACE
