Science is supposed to be the last word on any subject. Hence there is no place for values, tradition, metaphysics, revelation, faith, authority, or theology. God has no purposes in the universe, first of all because there is no God and secondly because there are no purposes. The great values of life- such as justice, truth, charity- are beyond the god of science. No one yet has ever been able to put a mothers love into a test tube, and yet who will deny its reality?

@tfrenn Actually they have. Its called oxytocin. My series what the heck is love discusses this.

@anubis2814 oxytocin and love ? Welcome to SOMA of Brave New World. What is the use of living unless we know the purpose of being human?

[anubis2814]

@tfrenn Actually its advantageous to understand because we can better understand ourselves and we can avoid pitfalls that blind use of the brain drugs we have can make us fall into. It is actually philosophical Buddhism at its best. If you can't identify an emotion and know its properties then you can't know how to avoid its negatives and better enjoy its positives.

This was the whole history of your inner self, related to us. I was touched. And angered at the religious brainwashing, that especially in your condition, wasn't helping at all. You pointed out very well that in teenage years this amounts to labelling "sin" everything that is normal for a teenager.

I haven't had anything like that in my life, but I feel for you people, in USA especially, and understand you better why you want to fight religion.

I'm glad I came across this! I too decided to about a week ago start experimenting with lying to myself. I've been trying to break free from depression for a while now, and yes for some reason it is addicting :/ But some other things are starting to turn positive in my life, so now I feel more capable with keeping my head up and ignoring negative thoughts and 'that feeling'. Thanks again for the video. Hopefully my self-inception takes root :)

Hah! Look at you with your old videos. You have indeed been around as long as I have, I think. I sort of already know your story, but it's interesting to learn more. Hugs for Ms. Anubis!

I love this, any good book titles you want to send my way much appreciated (deprogramming oneself-wise)

Dude you should write a book/novel on your experiences. If not you may be some novelist can. Your story is very exciting and it has at least inspired me to write a novel.

[Celticking36]

Very well presented. Your story sounds similar to mine.
