“The key to the universe is if you give you will receive. You are a by-product of, as we call it, a very fine reincarnation of light. Sometimes we envy you because you have this freedom of choice, either to accept, deny, neglect, or allow yourself to constantly carry on, searching for a teacher that has always been with you, only at a beckoning call to re-awaken the real reality that you are. "Read The Secret be-hide the Secret"

Definitions

Argument- Disagreement; in which different views are expressed, often angrily- Dispute- Squabble- Fight-debate or discussion about whether something is correct; "a connected series of statements to establish a definite proposition". Premises of the argument are used to obtain further propositions. This process is known as inference. In inference, we start with one or more propositions which have been accepted. We then derive a new proposition. There are various forms of valid inference. 

Argumentum ad Hominem is literally "argument directed at the man". Sweeping generalization occurs when a general rule is applied to a particular situation in which the features of that particular situation render the rule inapplicable. 

Circulus in demonstrando This fallacy occurs when one assumes as a premise the conclusion which one wishes to reach. Often, the proposition will be rephrased so that the fallacy appears to be a valid argument. For example:”We know that God exists because the Bible tells us so. And we know that the Bible is true because it is the word of God.”

Abusive variety of Argumentum ad Hominem occurs when, instead of trying to disprove the truth of an assertion, the arguer attacks the person or people making the assertion. This is invalid because the truth of an assertion does not depend upon the goodness of those asserting it.

Once you find yourself in an argument, your job is now to make your point clearly, and then leave. You are allowed two passes:

1. State your case, 2. Clarify any misunderstandings

Once you have stated your case, there’s no point re-stating it. Going over the same ground repeatedly will damage your case: nobody likes reading the same interminable debate over and over again. Similarly, if people read what you have to say, understand it, but continue to disagree anyway, there’s nothing more you can do unless you suddenly come up with a totally new argument. The only productive thing you can add is if people clearly don’t understand what you’re saying, and you need to clarify.

There’s a trap here, though. Sometimes, understanding is experiential. For example, to understand religious belief you must at some level ‘experience’ God. Someone without this experience can understand the mechanics of belief, but never understand the belief itself. Besides religion, I also have precisely this problem with RDF: I get into long debates where people try to explain the thing to me when I already know the mechanics.

If you are in one of these arguments, you can clarify ‘misunderstandings’ until you’re blue in the face, but someone who has experienced the belief will not ever be talking on the same wavelength as someone who hasn’t.

After you’ve stated your case and made a single pass at clarifying any misunderstandings people may have about your case, that’s it. Time to leave. Getting the last word is only important in a protracted argument: the longer the argument, the more valuable the last word becomes. Keep the argument short, and it barely matters. Any emotional involvement you show is a weakness that can be exploited by your opponent. Even being passionate about your subject is dangerous, because over time passion becomes zeal, and zeal becomes shrillness.

*Do not argue about politics, religion, or matters of personal taste or comparative morality.

Although I believe this I often engage in these discussions with you mi Lion because it helps me understand, appreciate you myself & your over standing. “Even in the limited scope remaining, it is not your job to correct everything you find that you disagree with. Try to limit yourself to things where the subject is at least something that makes some practical difference to your life”.

Conversation- talk with somebody, especially about opinions, ideas, feelings, or everyday matters

Rules of Conversation

Some are so foolish as to interrupt and anticipate those that speak, instead of hearing and thinking before they answer; which is uncivil as well as silly. In all Debates, let Truth be thy Aim, not Victory, or an unjust Interest: And endeavor to gain, rather than to expose thy Antagonist. Better say nothing than not to the Purpose. And to speak pertinently, consider both what is fit, and when it is fit to speak. www.bartleby.com/1/3/121.html - 21k

Strive not with your Superiors in argument, but always Submit your Judgment to others with Modesty. Associate yourself with Men of good Quality if you Esteem your own Reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad Company. A Man ought not to value himself of his Achievements, or rare Qualities of wit; much less of his riches Virtue or Kindred. Make no Comparisons and if any of the Company be Commended for any brave act of Virtue, commend not another for the Same. Do not say that for which you lack adequate evidence. Make your contribution as informative as required. You will never change anyone’s mind on a matter of opinion. 

Communication-the exchange of information between individuals,

Philosophy a unit of reasoning moving from premises that provide evidence to a conclusion ; the ability to think logically regarded as a basis for knowledge, as distinct from experience or emotions

Government- political organization comprising the individuals and institutions authorized to formulate public policies and conduct affairs of state. Governments are empowered to establish and regulate the interrelationships of the people within their territorial confines, the relations of the people with the community as a whole, and the dealings of the community with other political entities. Too many politicians have forgotten that government's only purpose is to improve citizens' lives. They've come to believe it's there to improve their lives. Politics a group of people who have the power to make and enforce laws for a country or area

Religion is an idea! Nothing more, nothing less. It’s the idea that there is a higher purpose to life, that there is meaning to life even though we can’t always fathom it. The idea that we are all the same, brothers and sisters journeying through life looking for that purpose and meaning is the one religion. Everyone believes passionately about religion - or the lack of it - and each one believes only he and his kind are privy to the One Truth. None of them makes anything true by believing, or there would be a Santa Claus, and the world would still be flat.  
One never has a “moral obligation” to impose beliefs that are not solidly backed up with proof. In fact, doing so is an insult and an offense to the person whose beliefs you attack with the well-intended suggestion that yours are better, so I hope you can relate as I try to define my vocabulary so there will be no misinterpretation of my point. 
*(1) the art of having faith in God without knowing what God is, or even if He is possible. / (1) a consciously accepted system of make-believe. (1) a monumental chapter in the history of human egotism. (1) the best armor in the world, but the worst cloak. (1) ritual and the truth of dogma. (1) a set of things which the average man thinks he believes and wishes he were certain. (1) the fashionable substitute for belief. (1) induced insanity. (1) the opiate of the masses.

Religion is a human phenomenon that defies easy definition. It is commonly understood as a group of beliefs or attitudes concerning an object (real or imagined), person (real or imagined), or system of thought considered to be supernatural, sacred, divine or highest truth, and the moral codes, practices, values, institutions, and rituals associated with such belief or system of thought. It is sometimes used interchangeably with “faith” or “belief system[1] In the course of the development of religion, it has taken many forms in various cultures and individuals.

Occasionally, the word “religion” is used in the more restrictive sense of “organized religion” " that is, an organization of people supporting the exercise of some religion, often taking the form of a legal entity (see religion-supporting organization).

Sociologists and anthropologists see religion as an abstract set of ideas, values, or experiences developed as part of a cultural matrix. Primitive religion was indistinguishable from the sociocultural acts where custom and ritual defined an emotional reality.

The English word clearly derives from the Latin religio, “reverence (for the gods)” or “conscientiousness”.

Apophis, Apopis, Apep The serpent of Chaos, sometimes equated with Seth

Anubis, Anpu, Khenty-Imentiu, Hermanubis God, conductor of souls

Osiris was murdered by his brother Seth, but Isis recovered the 14 scattered parts of his dismembered body and restored him to life. Osiris, however, remained in the underworld as king, while his posthumous son Horus became king of the living. Osiris, god of the dead and the Duat ; The son of the earth-god Geb and the sky-goddess Nut, Osiris is credited with teaching the skills of agriculture to the Egyptians.   Osiris represented the resurrection into eternal life that Egyptians sought by having their corpses embalmed and swathed like that of the beneficent god. He is depicted mummified in green stone statues, but in pictures the color of his skin suggests that he was a black god

Lion of Judah has its origins in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) where the Israelite tribe of Judah had the lion as its symbol. As a result of the lion’s link to the tribe of Judah, the dominant tribe among the ancient Israelites and the legendary ancestor of the Kingdom of Judah, Judea and the modern Jews, variations or translations of the word “lion” have been used as a substitute name for Judah (Yehuda) among Jews Within Judaism, the Biblical Judah (in Hebrew: Yehuda) is the original name of the Tribe of Judah - traditionally symbolized by a lion. In Genesis, the patriarch Jacob refers to his son Judah as a Gur Aryeh 'ּוּר אַרְיֵ" יְ"וּ"ָ" , a “Young Lion” (Genesis 49:9) when blessing him [1]

Church- The word “Church” comes from the Latin word: ecclesia, from Greek ekklesia. This had an original meaning of “assembly, congregation, council”, literally “convocation”, see Ecclesia (ancient Athens). Simply put: a team that is working together to resolve a problem faced by the wider community/society. The word “church” in the world today, as the world knows it started with a man called Jesus, a Hebrew from Nazareth, the penultimate character in the Holy Bible.

A logical definition of the word “church” is the senate/congress or team that works to bring solutions to problems on earth, in the forms and methodologies that may be extrapolated from the guidance of Christ.

Vedanta- Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence; “Veda” which means “knowledge” and “anta” which means “the end of” or “the goal of.” In this context the goal of knowledge isn’t intellectual"the limited knowledge we acquire by reading books. “Knowledge” here means the knowledge of God as well as the knowledge of our own divine nature. Vedanta, then, is the search for Self-knowledge as well as the search for God. SIVA- in Hinduism, an important deity, worshiped as the god of destruction; The Hindu triad (Trimurti) consists of Brahma, Vishnu, and Siva, Christian.

Marriage (or Holy Matrimony) joins a man and a woman for mutual help and love (the unintuitive purpose), consecrating them for their particular mission of building up the Church and the world, and providing grace for accomplishing that mission. In Roman Catholic theology, the primary purpose of marriage is seen as the bearing and raising of children (the procreative purpose), and marriage may only be between one man and one woman. Western tradition sees the sacrament as conferred by the canonically expressed mutual consent of the partners in marriage; Contract/Business agreement.

Ma’at

The principles of ma’at is the internal struggle for balance of your nature commonly called the yin and yang, or considered to be and rah or simply qa’hat “agreeable” and netchnetch “disagreeable” and in ancient Tama-Re “Egypt” called ma’at “order” and isfet “disorder.” Your heart or deeds are weighed against the principles of Ma’at, which determines where your soul will go after judgment It is the war or the showdown between right and wrong, that occurs in each individual. It is not a physical battle. It is a struggle with the heart that is weighed against the feather of Ma’at, who is also the Netert “Supreme Being” of Order

That of which one is justly proud.” As you see by this definition there seems to be two diametrically opposed “types” of pride. The one which is our focus as “sin” or “error” to the Spirit Within is what is also termed as “False” pride. False pride in itself refers to feelings of haughty superiority and “rightness” versus the feeling of self-respect and honor for achieving an understanding or act which one has diligently and honestly “worked” for.

Knowledge of Self- Familiarity or understanding gained through experience or study.

God denotes the deity believed by monotheists to be the sole creator and ruler of the universe. Conceptions of God can vary widely, despite the use of the same term for them all. The God of monotheism, pantheism or panentheism, or the supreme deity of henotheistic religions, may be conceived of in various degrees of abstraction: as a powerful, human-like, supernatural being, or as the deification of an esoteric, mystical or philosophical category, the Ultimate, the summum bonum, the Absolute Infinite, the Transcendent, or Existence or Being itself, the ground of being, the monistic substrate, that which we cannot understand, etc

Heart-Spirt-Mind-Compassion-Empathy-Sympathy-Sensitivity-Affection-Concern, considered as the source and center of emotional life, where the deepest and sincerest feelings are located and an individual is most vulnerable to pain. To have someone’s welfare or interest in mind.

Anubis then weighs the heart of the deceased (left tray) against the feather of Ma’at, goddess of truth and justice (right tray). In some drawings, the full goddess Ma’at, not just her feather, is shown seated on the tray. Note that Ma’at’s head, crowned by the feather, also appears atop the fulcrum of the scale. If the heart of the deceased outweighs the feather, then the deceased has a heart which has been made heavy with evil deeds. In that event, Ammit the god with the crocodile head and hippopotamus legs will devour the heart, condemning the deceased to oblivion for eternity. But if the feather outweighs the heart, and then the deceased has led a righteous life and may be presented before Osiris to join the afterlife. Thoth, the ibis-headed god of wisdom stands at the ready to record the outcome. The heart was removed to be weighed against a feather representing Ma’at to determine moral righteousness. The brain was sucked out of the cranial cavity and thrown away because the Egyptian’s thought it was useless. Personal belongings were usually placed in the tomb to make the Ka more at home and to assist the dead in their journey into the afterlife.

Hatonn http://www.greatdreams.com/ufos/hatonn.htm Text was read from the ‘Book of the Dead’ and the ritual of “opening the mouth” was performed before the tomb was sealed.

Rules-System-Policy-Regulations-Convention Laws- Law is a set of rules or norms of conduct which forbid, permit or mandate specified actions and relationships among people and organizations. The authority upon which legal rules rest and the extent to which they are formally codified varies between jurisdictions but all legal systems are united in their attempt to ensure impartial treatment of those suspected of breaking the rules and to bring about justice. The word law derives from the late Old English lagu of probable North Germanic origin.---- In some cases these are intended purely as individual moral guidance, whereas in other cases they are intended and may be used as the basis for a country’s legal system. This can be in one of two ways:

  • In countries such as Iran, the religious code of Islam is integral to the country’s legal system. In this case, civic law is the religious law (or based closely upon it). Some countries, where the state exists as a vehicle for a religion-based culture, are known as theocracies, and historically were often run by priests or the king (or god-king) as an earthly personification of the religion itself.
  • In countries such as the United States, there is no national religion. However a religious heritage and cultural background is strongly influential in the formation of a legal system, and in the choice of certain laws and social norms.

One of the initial challenges is to determine the relationship between law and morality, if there is one. Natural-law theorists, in a tradition which stretches back to Aristotle and Aquinas, hold that legal validity is a species of moral validity such that no immoral rule should be regarded as a rule of law. According to natural law, the fundamental principles of all law derive from nature or from a supreme being, depending on the particular perspective. Obligations vary from person to person, for example, a monarch will generally have far more obligations than an average adult citizen, who themselves will have more obligations than a child.

EVIL-Bad-Immorality, sin, criminal, iniquity, that which goes against God; whatever springs from weakness.

GOOD- Virtuous, Noble, Worthy, Moral, Virtuous, Decent, Excellent

Discipline-Order-Control-Restraint-Regulation- mental self-control used in directing or changing behavior, learning something, or training for something

Need- Require-Necessitate- could do with-Essential-requirement-Indigence-Important-Vital- Crucial, Imperative, Necessary, Central, Fundamental, Critical

Want-Desire-Crave-Wish for-Covet-Choose-Desire-Lack-Deficiency-Yearn for-Be After- In economics, a want is something you desire, distinct from a need which is something you have to have. It’s said that we have unlimited wants, but limited supplied resources. Thus, we can’t have everything we want and must look for the best alternatives sometimes that will cost us less. Man cant be satisfied for long nor will he settle for long!

Commitment- Promise-Pledge-Obligation-Assurance-Devotion-Dedication-Loyalty-Faithfulness-Responsibilty

Selfish-Self-Seeking-Self-Centered-Egotistic-Egocentric-Self interest over others & their views ;putting your personal wants before all others with a feeling of superiority.

Patience-Tolerance-Endurance-Serenity-the ability to tolerate being hurt, provoked, or annoyed without complaint or loss of temper

Feminine-Female-Womanly- used to describe qualities, actions, or types of behavior in a man or boy that are conventionally associated with women or girls, "The plucked body, the broken walk, the female attire," as "signs of one who is soft [mollis] and not a real man." Being friends with women, having limp or loose wrists, a high and/or lispy voice, a swaying walk, occupations such as hairdressing, and hobbies and interests such as theater, musicals, or "domestic" activities such as design, sewing, or cleaning, are all often considered effeminate within various historical contexts in the United States

Masculinity- words such as virtue (from the Latin vir for "man'", also used in words such as virulent and virile) reflect this, implying a clear association with strength. aggressive, Most men feel pressured to act masculine. These men feel that they have to prevail in situations that require physical strength and fitness. To appear weak, emotional, or sexually inefficient is a major threat to their self-esteem. To be content, these men must feel that they are decisive and self-assured, and rational. Masculine gender role stress may develop if a man feels that he has acted 'unmanly'. Conversely, acting 'manly' among peers will often result in increased social validation or general competitive advantage.

  • a) the emphasis on prevailing in situations requiring fitness and strength 
    b) being perceived as emotional and there by feminine femininity in men is sometimes called effeminacy. Furthermore, some individuals may refer to a non-living object as "gay," to indicate that it is seen to be effeminate. Such judgements largely involve anti-gay stereotypes. Recently, however, a positive correlation can also be presumed between effeminacy and gay men who choose to reclaim the term as a positive description. Traditionally it is considered a vice, indicative of other negative character traits and often involving a negative insinuation of homosexual tendencies. In contrast to this historical interpretation, effeminacy is now seen by some to be simply one characteristic or trait which might be a part of a particular male's "gender role", and in this sense would not be considered a vice or indicative of any other characteristics
  • c) the need to feel conquering in regard to sexual matters and work 
    d) the need to repress tender emotions such as showing emotions restricted according to traditional masculine customs

Effeminacy- Effeminacy comes from the Latin, ex which is "out," and femina which means woman; it means "to be like a woman." The Latin term is mollities, meaning "softness." Other contemporary words for effeminacy include: "pansy", "nelly", "p***y", and "girl"

A Greek word that approaches one modern meaning of effeminate is kinaidos (cinaedus in its Latinized form), a man "whose most salient feature was a supposedly "feminine" love of being sexually penetrated by other men." (Winkler, 1990) However, "cinaedus is not actually anchored in that specific sexual practice. It refers instead to a man who has an identity as gender deviant." (Williams, 1999). The Greek word for an effeminate man is μαλακός " malakos (literally "soft"), which is still used in modern Greek in that derogatory sense. Furthermore, a "boy" is not generally considered to be motivated by the pleasure of penetration itself, but rather gratifying (charizesthai) the normative masculine desire of an older male. A cinaedus is a man who fails to live up to traditional standards of masculine comportment. Indeed, the word's etymology suggests no direct connection to any sexual practice. Rather, borrowed from Greek kinaidos (which may itself have been a borrowing from a language of Asia Minor), it primarily signifies an effeminate dancer who entertained his audiences with a tympanum or tambourine in his hand, and adopted a lascivious style, often suggestively wiggling his buttocks in such a way as to suggest anal intercourse....

The late Greek (possibly c. fourth century), Erôtes ("Loves", "Forms of Desire", "Affairs of the Heart"), preserved with manuscripts by Lucian, contains a debate "between two men, Charicles and Callicratidas, over the relative merits of women and boys as vehicles of male sexual pleasure." Callicratidus, "far from being effeminised by his sexual predilection for boys...Callicratidas's inclination renders him hypervirile... Callicratidas's sexual desire for boys, then, makes him more of a man; it does not weaken or subvert his male gender identity but rather consolidates it." In contrast, "Charicles' erotic preference for women seems to have had the corresponding effect of effeminising him: when the reader first encounters him, for example, Charicles is described as exhibiting 'a skillful use of cosmetics, so as to be attractive to women.'"

Etymologies York and his "students" frequently use etymologies to drive home a point, though many of these etymologies are not those widely accepted by mainstream etymologists; for instance:caucasian  from “Carcass-Asian” meaning “Degenerated Asian”[citation needed]

dyslexia  from the Greek “dys” (hard, difficult or against) and the Latin “lexia” (law), meaning “to go against the law”[49]

Earth  derived from the word “Eridu”[50]

Extraterrestrials  “extra-terra astrals”[citation needed]

god  from the Hebrew letters Gomar, Oz, Dubar, signifying “wisdom - strength - beauty”[51]; alternately, this word comes from reversing the letters of “dog”[52]

gospel  comes from the words “ghost spell”[53]

honkie  “It was against the law for Europeans to have sex with ‘blacks.’ According to the Act of 1705 AD, which states in part: ‘…whatsoever white man or woman being free shall intermarry with a Negro shall be committed to prison for six months without bail, and pay 10 pounds to the use of the parish. Ministers marrying such persons shall pay 10,000 pounds of tobacco.’ At the time, certain European men that wanted to disobey the law would come into black neighborhoods and honk their horns. Back then car horns made a honk sound, not a beep sound. Thus, the black neighbors would say, ‘the honkies are here,’ in reference to the European men who would pay the ‘black women’ to have sex with them.”[54]

human  from “hu” (creative force of will) and “mane” (spirit of the dead)[50]

ELOHIMS This is the oldest group of aliens in the universe that we know of. They are the ones that are at war with the Orions, which are the ones that manipulate the Greys. .

Euphoria Pheromones Perfumes and Colognes (pheromone to attract woman) contain scientifically engineered pheromone concentrate that has proven effects on attracting the opposite sex. Just as animals use scents to attract others, humans possess the same senses which are incredibly powerful for sexual attraction! a chemical compound, produced and secreted by an animal, that influences the behavior and development of other members of the same species. Aesthetics (also spelled esthetics or æsthetics) is a branch of value theory which studies sensory or sensori-emotional values, sometimes called judgments of sentiment or taste. What makes something beautiful? Or sublime? Or disgusting, fun, cute, silly, entertaining, pretentious, discordant, harmonious, boring, humorous, tragic etc.? Aesthetics is closely allied with, or perhaps synonymous with, the philosophy of art.

The term aesthetics comes from the Greek αισθητική “aisthetiki” and was coined by the philosopher Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten in 1735 to mean “the science of how things are known via the senses.” The term aesthetics was used in German, shortly after Baumgarten introduced it, but was not widely used in English until the beginning of the 19th century. [1] However, much the same study was called studying the “standards of taste” or “judgments of taste” in English, following the vocabulary set by David Hume prior to the introduction of the term “aesthetics.”

For David Hume delicacy of taste is not merely “the ability to detect all the ingredients in a composition” but also our sensibility “to pains as well as pleasures, which escape the rest of mankind.” [2] Thus, the sensory discrimination is linked to capacity to pleasure. For Immanuel Kant “enjoyment” is the result when pleasure arises from sensation, but judging something to be “beautiful” has a third requirement: sensation must give rise to pleasure by engaging our capacities of reflective contemplation. [3] Judgments of beauty are sensory, emotional, and intellectual all at once for Kant

Value theory concerns itself with the worth, utility, trading or economic value, moral value (virtue), legal value, quantitative or aesthetic value of people and things - or the combination of all these. In psychology, value theory refers to the study of the manner in which human beings develop, assert and believe in certain values, and act or fail to act on them.

Conscience- the internal sense of what is right and wrong that governs somebody’s thoughts and actions, urging him or her to do right rather than wrong ETHICS-Principles- The awareness of a moral or ethical aspect to one’s conduct together with the urge to prefer right over wrong: The part of the superego in psychoanalysis that judges the ethical nature of one’s actions and thoughts and then transmits such determinations to the ego for consideration.

Summum bonum (Latin for the highest good), is an expression used in philosophy, particularly in mediaeval philosophy, to describe the singular and most ultimate end which human beings ought to pursue. The summum bonum is generally thought of as being an end in itself, and at the same time containing all other goods. In Christian philosophy, the highest good is usually defined as the life of the righteous, the life led in Communion with God and according to God’s precepts.
