Well we disagree on many points. You say psychedelics are addictive when in fact they are not. You say heroin can induce profound religious experience. I believe that it doesn't. ... and the list goes on. Anyhoo, to eack their own. Have a nice life and good luck with the opiates.

Matrixism is most definitely a religion. In fact it's now my religion. How can one not be offended when a atheist heroin junkie claims that the religion you follow is not a real religion? Well I guess you can feel sorry for the poor addict. ps to Blizard - We're not matrixians we're...

Imranshaykh, The same sorts of arguements that you are presenting can be used to claim that Muhammud's connection to prophecy is false also. Some things would be different of course but basically it would be the same arguements. This also applies to Jesus' claim to being the Messiah. The...

If you took just a little time to look at the Matrixism website you'd find that Aldous Huxley's novel Island and his essay The Doors of Perception are recommended reading. So Pathists do have a philosophical guide and are not left "to believe the first convincing-feeling thought that arises"...

Well as long as we all agree that Matrixism is a global religion then I guess everything is cool. It's amazing how fast Matrixism has spread around the world.

Just because Matrixism's text is brief (i.e. its website) and just because it's prophet is annonymous (i.e. whoever made its website) doesn't mean that Matrixism is not a religion. Take for example Taoism. The Tao Te Ching is very short and its author is unknown but it is still a religion. I...

Arthra, I'm not the one who has been asking for an apology. That would be your Baha'i friend popeye who keeps demanding apologies. Anyhoo, god luck to all with the Baha'i Faith. Truly I have no animosity towards it. Personally I'll stick with the path of the One and just have to wonder if...

Popeye, you can't do a search for paraphrasing. It's not a quote. Anyhow, I am ceratin (no pun intended) that I have read words to that effect. I don't know what you want me to say. Do you want me to say that I never read such a thing even though I am quite certain that I did? I have read "The...

Of course Matrixism is a religion and not just a philosophy. Why do you insist on insulting the path of the One? Why not live and let live? I for one think that Matrixism is an excellent example of mystical tradition that embraces the use of entheogens. As a baha'i is it right for you go...

I don't have any of the baha'i writings handy but I believe there are words to that effect in "The Book of Certitude" and/or "Epistle to the Son of the Wolf". That aside how about our deal?

The path of the One also has techniques and books to study. If you peruse the Matrixism website you'll find recommened techniques and quite a few books for study. Try looking in the Matrixism bookstore: Matrixism: Religion of the Matrix And perhaps check out their webpage title "Hacking"...

You are partly correct Popeysays did in fact make a rude and uneccessary attack on another religion that being Matrixism. But I'm not upset by any means. I am just trying to point out that Matrixism stands on equally firm ground as the baha'i religion. If you read the Matrixism website I think...

A lot of people get valuable insights from dreams. Dreams are a lot subconcious thinking. You might know "A" from experience and "B" from being taught and if you spend some time thinking about them you might come up with a new idea "C" that wasn't brought in. That being said mystical waking...

Nope it's actually the modern scientific view of how the world works. Things are more than the sum of their parts. So to say that you only get out what you bring in because there is no outside factors is to negelect that things can be more than the sum of their parts. I would argue that if you...

It seems like a sign of weakness in the Baha'i world view that if someone actively dissents that they would become so spiritually "poisonous" that one shouldn't even breath the same air as them. It seems that if there were less assumption and arbitrary canon that the Baha'i religion could stand...

Now Scott you're going way off the deep end here. I never claimed that shunting Baha'i dissenters was equivalent to the Holocost or the R'wandan murders. You just made that stuff up to create the illusion of a flame war going on. I can't imagine how I could have led you to believe that but if I...

Actually, the Jedi religion had more than 500,000 worldwide people claim it as their religion on national censuses. Currently there only two thousand practicing Matrixists. Of course the Jedi religion predates the advent of Matrixism by about twenty-five years so who knows what the future will...

I'm a little bit confused here. Are you saying that if a registered Baha'i were to claim to be a manifestation of God they wouldn't be considered a covenant breaker? Anyhow what I was getting at is that Islam considers the Bab and Baha'u'llah to be covenant breakers (heretics) just like the...

That would be true if the whole were just the sum of its parts. But as most educated people now know the universe is full of (in fact it is mainly composed of) emergent phenomena where were parts can integrate into new wholes that have new properties and never before existed. Anyhow, it sounds...
