Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

Human intellect was naturally Created by God through natural processes.
The essential identity of every human being is a rational and immortal soul, which is “entirely out of the order of the physical creation.” Bahá’u’lláh uses the metaphor of the sun to explain the relationship between the soul and the body: “The soul of man is the sun by which his body is illumined, and from which it draweth its sustenance, and should be so regarded.”
It is through the exercise of the powers of the soul that human progress is achieved. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá has said that the soul “can discover the realities of things, comprehend the peculiarities of beings, and penetrate the mysteries of existence. All sciences, knowledge, arts, wonders, institutions, discoveries and enterprises come from the exercised intelligence of the rational soul.”

Back to Moral Realism. This is an interesting lecture for discussion on the topic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFHPH3m-KR8
I do not believe any of the Moral and Ethics philosophies hsve significant explanatory power, because they are very circular in their reasoning where the philosophies justify themselves. Polls of philosophies cannot justify the validity of any one philosophy.Last edited by shunyadragon; 04-08-2023, 07:41 AM.Glendower: I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
