What's this then?

Hopefully we can learn a lot about this situation looking back at it, because it will happen again. I just hope it won't become a political issue that makes clear facts harder to pinpoint.

Finally! Some attention! The typical Swede has great trust in the institutions in these sorts of things, both the political and the medical. I am also a typical Swede in this regard. Now, I won't go around and say that this strategy is the best option, I honestly have no idea what the best...

I'm surprised and slightly offended that none have mentioned Sweden in this thread! Here we are being all fast and loose with corona and we don't get any attention here at all! I'll be speaking with our PM about this!

So if I'm reading you right, the theological question of Jesus divine nature pushed the definition of our own nature. Fascinating! I've been wanting to do a proper historical overview of philosophy since about when I got here, but my constant burnouts keep me from delving very deep in any one...

So this is a video treating the concept of Human Rights through a couple of philosophical narratives. The content creator is clearly leaning toward the left, if not fully a Marxist. Just as a fair warning. But I was wondering if @Thomas could comment on his theological analysis early in the...

My take on the back and forth on the future governance of the world, where Cino, Colbet and I take a critical position to the claims, I would like to state (and I wish to be corrected if I'm wrong) that these things are articles of faith. Just as the the afterlife or the nature of sin, either...

wil has been waving this flag since forever, it's a nice sentiment, but it has to be said that any one sentence can be picked apart when moved into unintended context. Why it might not be appropriate to pick so much on the golden rule, the spirit of the rule is as well meaning as wils alternative.

Not really the details I was hoping for, but you don't always get what you want! Thanks for sharing what you have. Hehe, well there's a difference between us, to me people are mostly illogical most of the time. My time is spent navigating this madness! But there is some beauty to it as well.

This idea of a meld of democracy and theocracy have been mentioned before here, but not expanded on. Do you have any ideas of how that would work. How do you practically implement faith in a democracy? What is up to the divine, and what is up to the people? Also, you mentioned that you have...

Is being born good separate from the two nature's or are we born with much more of the higher nature? I could agree that we naturally have both natures, but I'm too cynical to say that we are born more good than not.

There's a lot going on there! A lot I have no experience of. What sort of things are you interested in and reading about on the forum now? Edit, and have you had much time same experiences as Trailblazer as a baha'i online? (is it better irl?)

I miss radarmak so much! Sorry for pointlessly dredging up an old thread, but I was reminiscing about old interfaith discussions and I realized how long ago I even though about radar! He challenged and supported me thoroughly, and how he interacted with other online was really inspiring (albeit...

I hope so to! Welcome!

Same!

I like this take a lot, it makes sense to me and it is aesthetic in a way. This is where it gets somewhat murky for me. Where we do not possess, we do not have ownership, and thus we do not have immediate responsibility or agency over the fruit. Or am I reading too much into this? It might...

I wonder if baha'i that have come here have felt the same. I can't remember anyone mentioning it, but they might have been too polite!

Oh, so you don't consider that...collective...you met your wife at as spiritual directive?

Hello there! I've noticed that you ask very big open-ended questions that can be answered in a multitude of ways. If you feel lost and overwhelmed right now, my I suggest that you break these questions down. Making them more concrete and manageable. The way my mind work: Does equality exist...

I'm just going to object to this binary presentation of gender, but we can move on.
