| It's an amazing tale of how folklore can be created (and passed along) as a means of coping with the harsh realities of being a homeless child. Don't worry, the Blue Lady will save you, provided you know her secret name. read more | digg story | ||||||||

| Cognitive dissonance is the extreme emotional discomfort we feel when two important beliefs, attitudes or perceptions collide. Humans cannot tolerate dissonance for long, so they ease the tension by making a change in belief or attitude - and justifying the change. read more | digg story Oi... das gilt auch für Patriarchale Gebräuche im allgemeinen und für Organisierte Religionen im besonderen - da ist man oft uneins mit sich selbst oder mit dem, was ich als Gesunden Menschenverstand bezeichnen würde! | ||||||||

| Lucid dreaming is a method that allows the sleeper to become alert and conscious while he or she is dreaming. This imagery is reported to be more vivid than in normal dreaming, and is a powerful method of meditation, which is reported to speed up the process of enlightenment. This technique helps allow dreamers control over their dreams. read more | digg story So ähnliche Träume hatte ich auch schon... bin jedoch eher durch Zufall reingerutscht. | ||||||||

| 10 You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours. 9 You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt. 8 You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God. 7 Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees! 6 You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky. 5 You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old. 4 You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving." 3 While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity. 2 You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God. 1 You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

| You "know" things. You don't even know how you know them. Yet you have a sense of certainty when driving down a strange street that you really must make a left turn. Or comfort a co-worker who insists she's fine. Or quit your job and move to Paris. read more | digg story | ||||||||

| We used to know how to get together and really let our hair down. Then, in the early 1600s, a mass epidemic of depression broke out - and we've been living with it ever since.

| Not only do dreams offer a private means to explore inner reality and to gain unique, undeniable, personal experiences, but there is overwhelming evidence that they can be used to improve waking life, often immeasurably, supporting Shakespeare's age-old claim by MacBeth that sleep and dreams "are chief nourishers in life's feast." read more | digg story | ||||||||

| Many in the West are shocked and horrified by the aggressive and wild outbursts coming from members of the Islamic communities on the streets of Europe and elsewhere. They see beheadings, shootings in Holland, rampaging young men burning down French streets, trains blown up in Spain and England, and Islamic women holding up signs in European public squares announcing the imminent takeover of Western cities and countries under the banner of Islamic supremacy and jihad. Churches in Asia are being burned and nuns shot dead in the street. ( Read more... ) read more | digg story Es heisst immer "Der Klügere gibt nach!" - na kein Wunder, regiert Dummheit die Welt...

| Islam is lil like Scientology -- terrified. The truth about Muhammad has been one of the world's best-kept secrets. For centuries, it has been virtually impossible to raise objections about the character of Muhammad in Muslim countries, for anyone who raised objections would (following the example set by Muhammad himself) immediately be killed. read more | digg story | ||||||||

| Funny read from VA read more | digg story Hehehe, ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass es oft tatsächlich so zugeht. Hey, ich mag noch an viel Übersinnliches glauben, wenn der Tag lang ist, doch natürlich gibt's auch genug Scharlatanerie! Darum beeindrucken mich irgendwelche Horoskope in Zeitschriften auch ziemlich wenig und ich habe mir auch sonst noch nie wahrsagen lassen oder sowas in der Art... | ||||||||

| After a break of 16 centuries, a growing movement of Greek pagans, whose members range from elderly academics to young professionals, are worshiping the ancient gods again - despite furious opposition from the Greek State Orthodox Church. Helena Smith asks them why they're so keen to revive the old religion. read more | digg story Nicht nur Griechische Götter kommen wieder in Mode, auch Germanische und sonstige Gottheiten haben immer noch bzw. schon wieder Anhänger und Sympathisanten... von Wicca ganz zu schweigen. Tja, Heidentum ist ja auch mir in vielen Dingen lieber als die sonst derzeit weltweit dominanten Patriarchalen Gross-Religionen. Und wenn ich mir das Schicksal oder wie auch immer als Personifiziertes Höchstes Wesen vorstellen muss, dann schwebt mir jedenfalls eher eine Grosse Göttin und Mutter Natur vor als irgendein Gott mit Rauschebart über den Wolken - denn bei so einem Gott wie in der Bibel, da braucht man keine Feinde mehr... | ||||||||

| Whether it's two billion years from now, when the Sun will no longer provide enough heat to support life on earth, or two hours from now in a nuclear holocaust, life on earth will inevitably come to an end. All religious traditions grapple with this fact. Here's what they've come up with so far... read more | digg story | ||||||||
