How would you - a Buddhist - answer this question. A Buddhist has faith in and/or believes what exactly ??? Maybe it has been answered here already and I missed it, if so forgive me?

Man - that's alot of stuff Bhak

Social pressure ? I'd say there is some, we are expected to settle our disputes within the Community. Taking a Brother to court with a lawsuit, for example, would be viewed by many in the Community as a failure to properly implement Islam. Both sides do agree to mediation and to the chosen...

I see this played out often in Muslim Communities. Disagreements, disputes in business are settled by the mediation of a small group of respected Brothers - not always the same people - the Imam will often get involved. This happens alot with family disputes too.

I have an interest in stimulating brain activity in the anterior prefrontal cortex - to your knowledge, would binaural beats assist with this ?

I've experimented some with binaural beats - thanks for sharing

Thank you

There is the Irada (Divine Will) - expressed by the Amr (Command or Decree) - which is "Kun (Be) fayakun (And it is)" Interestingly, the word Kawn (Cosmos) comes from the same root as Kun, as does the word Kaynunah (Existence). It would / could (and does to me) indicate that Al Kawn (The...

For my understanding - Allah is not a thing, Allah is not everything, Allah is not nothing(ness)

Don't Breathe - creepy and thrilling

Where does preservation come in ?

Thomas - I really don't think Roe v Wade will be over turned. I do think restrictions will continue and attempts to over turned Roe v Wade will happen, but will fail - could be wrong of course, but I really feel it will withstand the efforts to completely get rid of it.

I was a big fan of Pythagoras many years ago - he's really big among Occultist (widely applied word I know). Always wanted to know more about his teacher, who was supposed to have been the one that came up with the Hygeia symbol. Okay - looked it up it was Pherecydes, never can find much on...

Very Cool

I can't imagine any guest that I would have in my home asking me to do something that they know is a violation of my Religious obligations; nor would I knowingly do that or something similar to anyone else. If you - being a vegetarian - have no problem cooking bacon for the heatheans, then why...
