Well, that's pretty well said :rolleyes: I also don't often use runes in spells but I do use a set that I've created myself in divination and it works wonders :cool: _______ Kaldayen

Actually Brian, Shinto is much older than the Kojiki or the Nihongi. Those two texts aren't holy writings in any way but historical records. HanadaTattsu : According to The Kami Way by Sokyo Ono, they were written respectively in 712 and 720. Also, I'm not sure you could class every citizen...

Hi HanadaTattsu, I don't know much but here's what I can try to answer... as far as I know, Jinja Shinto is all the concrete side of the faith (rituals, prayers, everyday-life actions, etc.) as opposed to Kokutai Shinto which is the ethical and moral side that was instructed in schools during...

Happy new year everyone ! :) See you all next year ! :D Kal

My opinion would be : Because those virtues don't answer such fundamental questions as : What is there after life? Is there anything else out there? :) Religion, IMHO, are more than a moral code of conduct. They try to grasp the "ungraspable" (I think I just invented a new word? hehe). Kal

There's something at the base of your theory that I don't understand. How do you connect the different characters with an astrological sign? I haven't read the Bible but.. are their birthdate written anywhere? What with the second part of the quote, do you know the exact date of the "flood"...

I received it also. Just an idea : you could always look if "The Fool" received anything in his mail box :rolleyes: If he did, then we should all have it. Kal

Hello, I started to read the Kojiki and other Shinto writings for a text I have to produce in my Intro to Japan course. I went here in the Shinto section and printed The Kojiki translated by B.H. Chamberlain. (Thank you Brian for the accessibility of the texts :) ) The problem I have is : The...

Hi Brian :cool: Have you read Isaac Asimov's "Foundation"? His "psycho-history" theory is pretty much the same as what you've just said. Through complex mathematics, one could predict what would happen to a society. I had never thought of the parallel between that theory and Fate, though...

Ok thanks Brian :) I think I understand the main parts of your explanation but I definatly have some reading to do concerning quantum physic before I can grasp anything more heheh :rolleyes: Kal

Hi there, I used to play an Internet game called Everquest which is a multi-player (thousands of people) fantasy game. There was a command to check how much time we had spent on the game since we started a character... and my main character totalized over 100 days of playing over 2 years. That...

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%) 2. Neo-Pagan (96%) 3. New Age (94%) 4. Liberal Quakers (86%) 5. Mahayana Buddhism (80%) 6. Theravada Buddhism (78%) I did that test before and the first and second positions were interchanged. So I guess my Unitarian Universalism side is getting...

Hello everyone, Just thought I'd write a quick post in here. Don't expect to see many of my comments in the forums but be sure I'm reading nearly every one you write :D ! I'm also an "abandonned" from the MM board which closed a couple weeks ago, so I followed some people over here and I'm...

Hmkay... I'm not a scientist at all :P Correct me if I'm wrong but I guess a physical entanglement would be like 2 linked atoms (i.e. CO or O2)... ? But... what would a "conceptual entanglement" be? :confused:
