    Just a word of advice: schizophrenia is much more manageable, if you aim less at change and more at consistency

    If one can't correctly interpret their own senses, what can they rely upon to function? Must they always second guess everything they see or believe? Then what is the consistency spoken of in the OP to avoid stress? Is there something about certain observations that give them more credibility...

    Saying Christianity isn't a religion is silly

    The distinction is made in many a Christian's mind when they encounter a musty old religious spirit. Vain repetition is fed to hungry sheep, who are placated by man made traditions. Though they wander in the valley of dry bones, they do not seek the living water. The voice of the Shepard is...

    Guilty Victims

    It is not prudent. Where do you stop with this line of reasoning to ascribe guilt or innocence to a victim for their imprudence? In some situations an action may be prudent, and others the same action imprudent. Instead of soliciting suppose she: Was dressing provocatively? Was not walking...

    Guilty Victims

    Often our expectations are not rooted in reality, or we more likely don't give something a second thought. "Father forgive them for they know not what they do." The line I would draw is according to law, as it should always be expected that people obey the law even when we know they wont...

    Guilty Victims

    For a moment on my small screen I thought you wrote "virtue of prejudice." And thought yes this self/group victimization assumes some external guilty party. Therefore these promote prejudice towards other groups. However you said "prudence" which makes me wrong about your intentions for the...

    Topics that may be banned are already discussed ad-nauseam, which is why they are getting this special attention. We do not think it is edifying for those with opposing entrenched opinions to argue endlessly amongst themselves. We have placed moratoriums on topics in the past. I will open...

    Reflective Listening

    If you love your neighbor you should be present in your conversations with them. Being present involves paying attention, giving them your time, attention, and energy. It is possible to learn how to block out annoying people even if you are right there next to them. This would not be pleasing...

    "Based" post-modern vernacular

    There is the slang used these days, either ironically or unironically to express agreement. "True, based on fact." Sort of like a secular 'amen.' But its origins show it as being short for unbased. Which derives from 'worthless'. Stemming from a reduction from the base quality of something...
