I'd sure like to know who qualifies as famous in your eyes if Angelina Jolie and George Clooney don't! The pope maybe, but then he isn't famous for what he's done he's just an actor playing a role who changes every few years - kinda like James Bond. But then the pope is unlikely to have made the edit here and he doesn't have anything to say like these thoughtful quotes. I don't think there's any mere parroting going on here at all nobody believes in the biblical god and they don't want society organised on the say-so of a bunch of iron age superstitions. Hard not to have sympathy with that POV isn't it? In the scientific world, scientists are finding out, at the quantum level, that the objective world paradigm does not exist. IOW, the entire universe is coming out of Nothing, which is the unified field. I think you are confusing your misunderstanding of quantum physics and mysticism again. Scientists are NOT finding out that objective world isn't real, where do you get these ideas? I know, youtube. This is fine if you want to believe it but you've got to know that what you have is a set of beliefs that are just as weird as the religious stuff people in the video don't believe in. More weird maybe. It isn't science anyway, science found that the only testable theory of the unified field disproved the theory. But even if it hadn't it isn't what you think it is. Otherwise, scientists are forced to say that the universe created itself. This is NOT logical and is therefore bunk. The universe coming out of nothing and the universe creating itself are the same statement. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, yifuxero@... wrote : Famous People Who Don't Believe In God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Famous People Who Don't Believe In God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Famous celebrities you didn't know are nonbelievers in God View on www.youtube.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Preview by Yahoo
[FairfieldLife] Acropolis Now!
The Greeks vote for an end to the austerity politics that the EU and IMF have imposed on them since they had to be rescued from bankruptcy. Be interesting to see what happens next, some of them might have to delay retirement past the age of 50, and other horrors. They should never have been allowed to join the Euro anyway, all these poor countries playing on a level field with Germany and France, it was bound to end in tears. So they might as well get it over with and go back to the Drachma. But with all money connected worldwide we'll all feel the effects of a break-up in the Euro. Interestingly the UK has similar levels of public debt, the difference with us is our creditors still think we might be able to pay it back if we destroy more public services and sell the remains to the private sector so the people we owe money to can make even more out of us. It's all gone horribly wrong somewhere, the banks wreck society and have to be bailed out by the government who say they don't have that sort of money lying around so the banks say don't worry, we'll lend it to you. £1.5 trillion later and we still don't know what's going to be required to sort it out. But pity the Greeks, their biggest export is strained yoghurt and there's only a few of them who pay tax, the rest work for the government I had the best summer ever living on beaches on Greek islands, I got all Jason and the Argonauts cooking fish and potatoes over an open fire every night. Once a week we'd go to a taverna and drink in the culture with dancing and ouzo then watch the stars come out over the sea. All rather excellent. I'd do it again in a heartbeat but I don't know if it's still possible now everything is Euro-legal. Are people allowed to just sleep rough on beaches anywhere? Sleep on the decks of ferries to save money? Loads of European kids used to do it for a cheap summer holiday in paradise, nowadays most are too worried about how dossing about will look on their CV's. Fucking politicians ruin everything..

The trouble with sitting still on a beach is that insects find you, there are some mighty big and fast spiders out there, not conducive to deep relaxation.

I'd sure like to know who qualifies as famous in your eyes if Angelina Jolie and George Clooney don't! The pope maybe, but then he isn't famous for what he's done he's just an actor playing a role who changes every few years - kinda like James Bond. But then the pope is unlikely to have made the edit here and he doesn't have anything to say like these thoughtful quotes. I don't think there's any mere parroting going on here at all nobody believes in the biblical god and they don't want society organised on the say-so of a bunch of iron age superstitions. Hard not to have sympathy with that POV isn't it? In the scientific world, scientists are finding out, at the quantum level, that the objective world paradigm does not exist. IOW, the entire universe is coming out of Nothing, which is the unified field. I think you are confusing your misunderstanding of quantum physics and mysticism again. Scientists are NOT finding out that objective world isn't real, where do you get these ideas? I know, youtube. This is fine if you want to believe it but you've got to know that what you have is a set of beliefs that are just as weird as the religious stuff people in the video don't believe in. More weird maybe. It isn't science anyway, science found that the only testable theory of the unified field disproved the theory. But even if it hadn't it isn't what you think it is. Otherwise, scientists are forced to say that the universe created itself. This is NOT logical and is therefore bunk. The universe coming out of nothing and the universe creating itself are the same statement. I'm not sure why anyone would care what famous (read that actors and actresses) believe about God or anything else. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, yifuxero@... wrote : Famous People Who Don't Believe In God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Famous People Who Don't Believe In God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Famous celebrities you didn't know are nonbelievers in God View on www.youtube.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2NmAYqR4OM Preview by Yahoo

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: PROVIDER OF KNOWLEDGE
I have not been to the World Trade Center area since 2001. About three months after the attack, I walked around the entire complex, which was boarded off, except for the egress road where they were carting debris out of the area. An endless stream of large trucks carrying beams and concrete and other rubble. I recall flying (not me as pilot of course) within a couple of hundred feet of the towers back in the 1980s in a small plane. And being up on the observation deck of one of the towers, maybe in 1979. Security in the city varies depending on assessed threat level. How is St. Pat's, I have not been in there for a while, is the scaffolding on the inside finally gone? Sometime I meditate in Cathedrals. There is another called St. Mary's just off Times Square and it seems a bit quieter. I am of course not Catholic, I am blissfully non-theistic, invading the sacred spaces of the reality challenged.

Yup, I found a independent shop up the street that has a Subaru mechanic and they've been keeping it up for me. And they cost less than the dealer.

Greece owes $330 billion. There are only 11 million Greeks! One article discussing the crisis mentioned that Britain once defaulted on its debt to the USA. I'd never heard of that one but it turns out that in 1934 Britain defaulted on war debts to the USA worth about $350 billion in today’s money. So virtually the same amount! Most people think we have paid the debt off, but we haven’t. So if you Yanks are short of cash you know where to look.

From The Telegraph: A walker who was killed by a bolt of lightning during a thunderstorm on the Brecon Beacons may have been struck because he was carrying a selfie stick, it has been claimed. Two men died and two were injured on the mountain range in Powys, Mid Wales, after separate lightning bolts in several parts of the park. Sources close to the rescue said one of the dead men had been carrying a metal selfie stick, which may have attracted an electrical strike.

I hear our moderator, a TM apostate now, was up visiting one of the non-approved Indian saints up in Chicago. As one of FFL's biggest spammers and generally non-interactive complainer, he has been relatively silent now that he holds the moderator button. In particular with that complete lack of transparency as far as TuquoiseBee was concerned. The few glimpses he gave for reasons to press the delete button on him were absurdly implausible, considering things that have gotten by subsequently. I mean, if a single poster negatively impacts your view of spirituality, and you cannot stand up to that person while in the relative safety of online discourse, it only shows that whatever spirituality you have got is meaningless and in a practical sense, ineffective, and have a need to resort to secrecy and subterfuge to achieve ones goal. Spirituality, and most other disciplines are laced with all kinds of absurd beliefs which followers seem to have a need to maintain. Some of these absurd beliefs are temporary necessities on a spiritual path because they provide a soft landing for the passage of various experiences (TC, CC, GC, UC, experiences like that), but in the end they all go if you find what you were actually seeking. Yet it seems inevitable that spiritual teachings are adopted not because they are true, but because they provide an axe with which the human ego can justify its carnage in the world by acting as if those ridiculous statements about reality were true, hiding the doubts that surround such beliefs from itself. There is a certain humour in the human condition here, well stated by Andy Borowitz: MINNEAPOLIS (The Borowitz Report) – Scientists have discovered a powerful new strain of fact-resistant humans who are threatening the ability of Earth to sustain life, a sobering new study reports. The research, conducted by the University of Minnesota, identifies a virulent strain of humans who are virtually immune to any form of verifiable knowledge, leaving scientists at a loss as to how to combat them. 'These humans appear to have all the faculties necessary to receive and process information,' Davis Logsdon, one of the scientists who contributed to the study, said. 'And yet, somehow, they have developed defenses that, for all intents and purposes, have rendered those faculties totally inactive.' More worryingly, Logsdon said, 'As facts have multiplied, their defenses against those facts have only grown more powerful.' While scientists have no clear understanding of the mechanisms that prevent the fact-resistant humans from absorbing data, they theorize that the strain may have developed the ability to intercept and discard information en route from the auditory nerve to the brain. 'The normal functions of human consciousness have been completely nullified,' Logsdon said. While reaffirming the gloomy assessments of the study, Logsdon held out hope that the threat of fact-resistant humans could be mitigated in the future. 'Our research is very preliminary, but it’s possible that they will become more receptive to facts once they are in an environment without food, water, or oxygen,' he said.

Well, I think you may enjoy a revisit to the new WTC Observation Deck. It's quite an experience, even with some dramatic flourishes, (which I foresaw, but rest of family did not)* Also, as I mentioned before the two Memorial Pools marking the spot of the two towers were unique memorials, with smooth as glass water cascading down four sides of black granite, and into another abyss lower down. St. Pats. Scaffolding gone? Hell no! I mean hell, no!. The whole front end is scaffolding. When we stopped in again today, workers were busy hoisting what appeared to be aluminum I-Beams up around the front. But, it is a beautiful cathedral, as cathedrals go, I think. So many places of worship are are beautiful, IMO. *I've always been fascinated by the five boroughs, and from up there, it's fun to see them all laid out. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anartaxius@... wrote : I have not been to the World Trade Center area since 2001. About three months after the attack, I walked around the entire complex, which was boarded off, except for the egress road where they were carting debris out of the area. An endless stream of large trucks carrying beams and concrete and other rubble. I recall flying (not me as pilot of course) within a couple of hundred feet of the towers back in the 1980s in a small plane. And being up on the observation deck of one of the towers, maybe in 1979. Security in the city varies depending on assessed threat level. How is St. Pat's, I have not been in there for a while, is the scaffolding on the inside finally gone? Sometime I meditate in Cathedrals. There is another called St. Mary's just off Times Square and it seems a bit quieter.

Too bad, cuz I like xeno's brand of cynicism for the most part, and of course, that dry, dry sense of humor. That will not easily be replaced, IMO. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, dhamiltony2k5@... wrote : Dear Xenophaneros Anartaxius you are well aware of the yahoo-groups guidelines of invading privacy or slurring people on yahoo-groups.

I never got beyond the sitting-in-a-chair stage. Do you have to be able to do the cross-legged bit to qualify as a teacher of TM? No need to be able to do lotus to be a TM teacher. Very few people can manage it actually. I did for a while but like most westerners I was too keen to get into it and it wasn't easy enough so I ended up with severe knee pain. I know a few people who are permanently damaged by it with weak knees. Seems like there isn't much point but it does improve the quality of the TM a lot. I was amazed at the difference and wanted to do my whole TMSP in full lotus but they say you need to have been doing it for a decade before you can sit still like that. I see there's a book showing how to master the position. Re the fall-out from the Greek fiasco: I'd wager serious money that it ends up with the Fed having to supply lines of credit to Europe! Another Marshall Plan and we'll see if Europe's politicians can get it right this time around . . . I think it's going to outlast the siege of Troy!

The trouble with sitting still on a beach is that insects find you, there are some mighty big and fast spiders out there, not conducive to deep relaxation.

[FairfieldLife] For the Fallen...
With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children, England mourns for her dead across the sea. Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres. There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted, They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. They mingle not with their laughing comrades again; They sit no more at familiar tables of home; They have no lot in our labour of the day-time; They sleep beyond England's foam. But where our desires are and our hopes profound, Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight, To the innermost heart of their own land they are known As the stars are known to the Night; As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain, As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness, To the end, to the end, they remain. :-) (Poem on loan from Robert Lawrence Binyon)

It's an erotic thriller film directed by Roman Polanski and starring Hugh Grant, Kristin Scott Thomas, Emmanuelle Seigner and Peter Coyote. There's no other movie like it. Hugh Grant is convincing as the uptight, innocent Englishman who is ensnared by a decadent Peter Coyote on a boat journey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69cGkcHEfuU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69cGkcHEfuU ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, emily.mae50@... wrote : Peter Coyote's memoir—The Rainman's Third Cure: An Irregular Education—looks interesting.
