Originally posted by Issue313 Yes, I'd agree. Besides my personal conviction I think that reincarnation is the healthiest and most life-affirming worldview possible, and nature tends towards healthy and life-affirming alternatives to judeo-christianity or even atheism whenever possible.
I think that the idea of reincarnation, at least as I envisage it, tends towards maximal darwinian potential, as an organism which retains memories from its ancestors/previous lives (same thing) is the most likely to not make the same mistakes again.
In addition a population which believes in reincarnation is the most likely to seek to retain a healthy biosphere for future populations.
Those are all potential benefits of belief in reincarnation but none of them imply this:That alone makes the idea of reincarnation the most likely (and desirable to push) possible scenario for me.
Something potentially having good effects doesn't mean it is true. Like it would be pretty swell to believe I was the most attractive guy alive and maybe it would have some positive effects but it says absolutely nothing about the actual truth of the matter.
And without external ethical support something like potential ecological effects are a circular defense. You say "reincarnation belief is good because it encourages environmentalism", I ask "why is environmentalism good", and if you say "because we're going to be reincarnated and need the planet to be in good shape in the future" then you've used reincarnation as a premise in defense of reincarnation itself. If you answer with anything else then we don't need reincarnation beliefs to justify environmentalism so the whole line of reasoning was pointless.Like I said, if we didn't know about, for instance, atomic theory, you could spend the whole day poking holes in the idea of atomic theory, ie. well what keeps the electrons in orbit, well why don't atoms all just fly off into space then, well why don't they just coalesce then, etc. Absent an empirical science discussing this stuff is kinda pointless.
Sure, if we had no experimental evidence of atomic theory then the only reasonable attitude towards atomic theory would be skepticism. The fact that we did eventually find experimental evidence of atomic theory doesn't vindicate every theory lacking evidence.

it's been a long time since I've looked into it but pretty sure that statistically, once you're branded a felon you're never coming off minimum wageThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by RisiR † Probably. I've seen documentaries about your prison system, too and I'd say a good 70% of the people they have shown are actual crazy people. We lock them up in seperate places and the treatment is a lot different, too.
It really sucks to hear that you are getting fucked over like that.
Yeah, the prison system here is totally monetized and totally fucked. They don't care about mental issues, they just throw you in SHU and put antipsychotics in your meals if they can't control you. They don't give a fuck about "rehabilitation" they just want to make money. Then, when you get out, you can't get a job so the only way to make money is illegally, which lands you back in jail, and the cycle repeats. That's why our recidivism is so high.
And that's without even mentioning the living conditions inside the prisons.
Try telling most Americans about this, and they just say "well they shouldn't have done something to wind up in prison in the first place"The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

i'm not the one who professed to post a video explaining a bunch of really abstract shit that doesn't have any discernible meaning. the video is like one of those motivational speakers or some shit. a bunch of hype but absolutely no substance. i like psychedelics too and think they're interesting but being mystical just for the sake of being mystical is just another manifestation of ego. "ohhhh look how spiritual i am." and you can't say shit about it because when it comes down to it, they really are not saying anything.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

1. If it fails to boot correctly from a liveusb/cd, chances are you're right and something is horribly fucked up with your hardware or bios.
2. The first thing I'd recommend in this case is to see if you can ctrl+alt+F1-F7 to get to a different terminal (depending on your distro your graphical desktop may be F1, F7 or something else. Mysterious!)
3. I can see you tried that but couldn't log in. In linux, when you enter a password in the terminal the cursor does not move - you don't see stars or whatever like in Windows or OSX. It's accepting the keystrokes - if it reports incorrect password, it's because either your username or password doesn't match.
4. If you know your root password, use the username root and that password to log in.
E. If you don't, log in as your normal user and once you're in, run sudo su to switch to root.
#. It gets tricky from here because there's no one way that'll tell you what went wrong. A good start is to run dmesg; it'll give you information on failures and system feedback since the last boot. If you can't find anything useful there you'll want to look through your system logs; they're typically kept in /var/log.
potato. If you're not familiar with doing this, you can run cat /var/log/syslog to dump the entire syslog file to screen. That's probably too much to go through so maybe try tail -n100 /var/log/syslog to dump only the most recent 100 lines.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by NARCassist LSD can you have a gun being an ex convict?
.
If you're talking about domestic battery charges, those were dismissed. I only have two misdemeanor convictions. I'm on deferred adjudication for a felony, but I still have the right to own a firearm, since it's not a conviction, and when I successfully complete the probation it'll be dropped.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
