Re: Eyes or hands?
I only share links or suggest that someone read an article when it has relevance to what is being discussed and it's not meant to come across as 'do your own research', which I consider insulting (not always). Philosophy's main tool is language - we are trying to come up with the best possible ...

Identity Politics
Well feel free to read the threads anyway, I don't partake in the usual 'response to...' or 'fail' stuff, I go straight to the literature and statistics and of course from my own experience.

I honestly don't know what those are, and I will look them up after this post. But the story is actually my .... 3rd grade level interpretation of what "it" comes from. I can't tell ...

Re: Being
He didn't know why he was there or where he came from but also knew it was for a purpose.
I like this, kind of like saying 'there is something secret' but the secret does and does not have to exist simultaneously for us to even begin seeking it.

A word of advice - don't bring up anything you don't want to talk about and if you don't get along with any member (including admins) you can use the block function.

Re: 'No Ego' and 'Non-self'

I will. I posted a story to explain ...
