Welcome to Gaia! :: Tuken's Post History

To me, I know the general term "perfect life," couldn't exist to me if someone isn't happy for managing to get a wholer happiness. So, ideally, I find that the perfect life is actually the process in which we can only make things better. The "perfect life," to me is always finding inspiration to continue on creating love to better us as individuals.

That's inclusive of 'my choice'. It was my choice to feel hatred for something, hate is an emotion. You can't control it. It's not meant to be disrespectful. Sheesh ! Well that's awesome if you believe that! Then you can understand why they responded in such a way. Therefore your question: "When we respect on your beliefs over some superficial spirit then why don't you (everyone who are theists ...

um "I remember the other day I was telling one of my seniors how much I hate believing in some superficial spirit like God's and how the stories deceive everyone."

I'm pretty sure you're mistaking my point. The choice I'm referring to is not your stereotype. Your stereotype you've presented in the title- atheist- has nothing to do with the choice you made in not respecting another individual's stereotype.

I consider it not to be racist in itself to say "I don't like big ears," (rather than just unpleasant), but when the person claims to "hate," a different skin- while only meaning they're sexually unattracted- that's a toughy. They don't claim to not want to strip the rights of people whom they claim to have "dark skin," but can we still define it being as racist if it's just personal attraction ra ...

We don't know the full story from just a chapter detailing the incident. We don't know the issue personally, so it's hard for me to assume things about this.

It's everything and nothing; it's subjective without being something. Think of your face- it might be pleasant to see a smile, or emotional to see a frown, but that doesn't mean " :|" isn't less of an expression. Science may be an art, but art isn't a science.

I think the author of that is spot on, for many cases. In my own opinion, I feel as if the effect of this "reflection of privilege," can leak within other stereotypes too, if there's enough approval of their actions from the majority. I feel like this factor has also played on how I debate subject matter as well; some topics will never touch us, so we feel elbow room to stretch our own opinion, ...

Death also has no reason; therefore making it a double negative. :wink:
