You mind if u point out that there are seven?
I. If I point out.
Is that cool? If I bring that up, or do u think it should remain hidden.
Hidden it is.

I know but the amount of my ancestors are way more than ten. Western philosophy is the reason why the world is destroyed, cannot blame one person or set of people but the ideology destroyed the values that were in place in America before Columbus. Just the fact that history is written by those in power is an example of this same ideology

My phone and its auto spell keeps giving me the wrong words.. technology I guess
11:26pm
Christopher Paul
All we are looking for is knowledge. All knowledge is good, if used properly. My question remains. If you cannot answer it clearly, you have learned nothing from your ancestors. Yes or no, in your opinion, should I point out that there are seven?
11:27pm
Brutal Ice
Only seven ideas or people who speak theories?
11:29pm
Christopher Paul
What? I asked about people who philosophize. Wise men. Teachers. Thinkers. Everyone you named, in my opinion, counts. Answer me clearly, Yes or No. Should I point it out?
11:29pm
Brutal Ice
Yes. But I am confused
11:30pm
Christopher Paul
Ha. Well. Try answering the first question. Logos vs. Theories. But this is for your own self awareness. I don't need to know the answers, YOU DO!
11:31pm
Brutal Ice
I guess we are on different levels
11:31pm
Christopher Paul
I'm here to level people up.
11:40pm
Brutal Ice
I don't see logos vs theories, what I see is our time is short in the physical. Our bodies are our own temples and we should treat them as such. Someone else's knowledge and theories cannot make a person act a certain way or think in a certain manner. But belief through experience is the best teacher, even this conversation is experience. We are building on a subject that I don't know many that would openly attempt. For that I am grateful because it is times like these that almost slow time. When deep thought is meet with reaction u get the end result. Building, but with out destroying there can never be gain. This is why our physical form is precious, but there are two parts that make us. Only one half is physical, the spirit side never dies. And at times it can over take the physical. Now I am not saying we can all experience this but trust me it is possible. Our minds make the biggest enemy to our growth in both parts of what make us. Our minds set boundaries and divide people in general. It created and perceives the differences in religion. But the two parts that make us will not be changed by our minds separations. All I know for fact is that which I stated first I don't see this vs that because life is to short and too precious.
11:41pm
Brutal Ice
Sorry for the novel but yea that's my response
11:45pm
Christopher Paul
The point is to see where your focus is. The one you can name more of has more of your focus. The fact that it is logos vs. theories is arbitrary. Just that theories serve your interest (your own knowledge, awareness, understanding, awakening), and logos serve someone else's (the ones trying to sell you something). Materialism is fine, IF IT DOESN'T DISTRACT YOU. But it is nearly impossible to Not Be Distracted. For this reason, He said: it is easier for a camel to go thru the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

We have had this conversation before. At a different time a different place. Open minded is what u are suggesting in simpler terms
Are u a chosen one?
11:49pm
Christopher Paul
Not bad. But there is so much smoke and mirrors. Remember this: remove your splinter. Right now, so many are enslaved to consumption and don't know it.
11:50pm
Brutal Ice
I know this is the chase the carrot thing where the world shows u what u should be but at what real cost.. disgusting because I fell into that trap for many years if my own life
11:50pm
Christopher Paul
Everyone asks that. No. Potentially ANYONE and EVERYONE is the chosen one. Humanity is the chosen one. We are all trying to be one person. One of us did. He left, so we could begin.
11:52pm
Brutal Ice
I recently received my Indian name.. in my culture this is the name of the spirit that guides me and also the responsibilities I must uphold, a high honor that most receive as children but I didn't get mine till I was 33.. can u guess what mine translates to?
11:52pm
Christopher Paul
We all have the divine spark. We all know that. We've heard it our entire lives. Right now, I've turned my spark into a fire. I can give you the fire, only because it was given to me. I AM NOT THE SOURCE OF THE FIRE.
All I know is: my legal birth name is Little Christ-Bearer. Christopher Paul.
11:55pm
Brutal Ice
My born given name is Vincent Paul Iceman sr. But my Indian name translates to "man who walks on water" I have never heard of one single person receiving such a straight forward name. The reason I asked if u was a chosen one is because there are more
Well the sr came after I had my junior
11:59pm
Christopher Paul
There are lots. Before and after. That's funny, my adopted brother's name is Vincent James.
Wanna hear something cool?
12:00am
Brutal Ice
My little brothers name is Leslie james..
Yea what's that?
12:03am
Christopher Paul
After the resurrection, no one could recognize Jesus. Why? It had only been three days. How could so many people forget the face of someone like that after THREE DAYS? Answer: he was wearing a new cloak. Translation: "Just as a man might wear out many cloaks before he dies, the soul might use up many bodies before it dies." - Plato
12:05am
Christopher Paul
You know I'm leaving Facebook. Get twitter. I've been covering all of this all day long.
And for the Love Of Christ, never confuse spirituality with sexuality. Or don't even bother.
12:07am
Brutal Ice
Yea I seen that, sorry but I was surprised that I even have face book. I doubt I ever go down the twitter road, i see enough garbage in Facebook I can't imagine what's on twitter.. I can't imagine people having twitter wars over other people's lives and such.
How does one mistake the one for the other?
Physical is impossible to reach spiritually unless induced by sacrifice like a fast or deep meditation.. the two halves of what make us are divided for a reason
12:10am
Christopher Paul
Twitter is Silk Road. How well do you know your history. If you meet the right people, it's a place to exchange ideas. I ignore the warring people. What I am doing is a team sport, not a competition. Ya know Buddha travelled the Silk Road.
12:11am
Brutal Ice
Yea I hear that too. The one road I can relate to is the trail of tears
12:11am
Christopher Paul
The difference is that, while both Good and Evil speak in metaphor, one is hinting at spirit, the other is hinting at sex.
12:12am
Brutal Ice
Ok I see totally what u saying now
12:13am
Christopher Paul
Sex isn't bad. When you find the right woman. It's all good. But just don't become preoccupied with it. I figured you'd see that. But again. Sex sells. And we are attempting to break off the chains of consumerism.
Consumerism is the first chain. There are more.
We need knowledge and character, which, in truth, are one.
12:14am
Brutal Ice
Its more of a distraction than anything.. can u imagine how our great grand parents would feel about how the world sells it self so short?
12:14am
Christopher Paul
Yes, a distraction! Exactly!!!
A constant and powerful distraction.
12:15am
Brutal Ice
Yea and that same distraction cause horrible actions by people who become consumed by it
12:15am
Christopher Paul
The light can only whisper thru it. But when you look for it, you'll hear it loud and clear with your own eyes and ears.
Exactlyx
12:16am
Brutal Ice
Light, Love and Power..
12:16am
Christopher Paul
They are mindless consumers. We need awareness. Which is Buddhahood.
The power of light is like your nose. It is RIGHT THERE. But you forget, because you are looking elsewhere.
Your brain choses to ignore it bc it thinks other things are more important.
But the nose is front and center. It literally keeps you alive at every minute. Breathing. Have you noticed you were breathing during this whole conversation. Or had you forgotten about breathing?
12:19am
Brutal Ice
Breathing is non essential for the brain until u make ur brain aware of it.. when I used to smoke trees I would get so bad that I would make myself forget to breathe
It would be like saying dam heart stop pumping my blood.. lol
12:21am
Christopher Paul
Lol. Everyone thinks I'm high. That's water into wine, high on life. I'm stone cold sober. What you are seeing is what He said you receive after being born again.
Again. Breathing is NECESSARY for life.
You have only forgotten it. Because you took it for granted.
12:22am
Brutal Ice
So is the pumping of our blood but we cannot consciously tell it to stop the same as breathinf
12:24am
Christopher Paul
Right. That's why I picked the breathing analogy, because the blood doesn't fit. It's not genetics, it's memetics. It's not the body, it's the psyche.
The spirit is too subtle to be captured by matter.
But breathing INVOLVES YOU. Yes, you are right, many of us have forgotten to breathe.
Many of us are kept junkied up like European sex
slaves.
We are a culture of MASS HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
12:26am
Brutal Ice
That's a good way to put it
12:27am
Christopher Paul
Again. The first chain is consumerism. But it is as easy to break as remembering how to breathe.
I have to go. Peace, brother.
12:28am
Brutal Ice
Consumerism with money that is actually fiat currency. No real value, no real consequence when the natural resources that humans have ran thru took millions of years to create.. yea man later
Peace
12:30am
Christopher Paul
For the record. I'm speaking figuratively and literally at once. All the religious imagery is used to glorify the true natural state of humanity. We have gotten off track.
12:31am
Brutal Ice
No doubt
a creative investigation into (1) the nature of the "unnameable" & "unknowable" (referred to by St. Anselm as "That-Than-Which-Nothing-Greater-May-Be-Conceived"), (2) underlying similarities hidden behind apparently incompatible spiritualities, (3) the universal connection that transcends all individual distinction: a testament to the sacred bond shared by all of humanity & all of life & all of existence.
