The Voice of Creation-- What do you like most and least?
What do you like most about the book? What do you like least or think could be improved about it?

I believe spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) manifests as bravery, confidence, grace, honesty, love, and inner peace.

That said, I would like to see a discussion on an actual philosophical work that is well known many probably read by many members here already?
Being and Time has been title that has interest. Neitzsche would be worth a look for me to. For ease of access maybe Plato or Aristotle?
Just a suggestion. I am not a paying member though.

I am not exactlt saying that. It may well be that the paying members have picked these titles to discuss and even if they have not there is room for all kinds of topics, psychology is an area of interest to me.Felix wrote:I agree with burning ghost, I'd rather discuss philosophical works than works on theology, psychology, sociology, etc.
My belief is that some focus on well known titles that are readily availabke to all may be worth a look. There are numerous pdf's online that anyone can access. It is just a case of how seriously people here are about reading such things and discussing them.
I am quite intrigued bu the current title too. Just not inclined to fork out money for it because I have little knowledge of the author and limited access to such titles ... although I am visiting the Philippines soon so I will keep an eye for it.

I had a close friend that was a Jesuit priest who stated that no matter how close you may come to belief through rational arguments, there will always be a final step, no matter how small, that will require a leap of faith. So, given that, I see no purpose in any book that is trying to provide an argument for any specific belief.
