Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs.

Redeem: wakingup.com/redeem
This unlocks full access to the Waking Up app, including our:
* 28-day introductory course
* Robust library of guided meditations
* In-depth talks on philosophy, science, and more
* Conversations with leading scholars and teachers---
I haven't used it in a while, and I don't universally endorse the creator's views, but you might at least try it out. I find that I don't really need a guide to meditate anymore; tho I've never been particually successful at achieving one-ness or emptyness with or without a guide.

Philosopher journalist Robert D. Kaplan talking about fun feelgood
uplifting stuff:
> The coming anarchy was published in 1994 as an essay. It came out
> in book form in 1996. That was the heart of the n the mid 1990s
> when the policy elite at famous posh conferences in Davos and
> elsewhere were predicting a world of liberal humanism. Uh they
> predicted that uh Africa, Asia, every place would just follow
> Eastern Europe into democracy and good governance. And I was
> traveling around Africa, the Middle East, and other places, and I
> said, "That's not true at all. These places have different
> histories. They're at a different time in their development, and
> they're not just following what happened with the collapse of the
> this a number of regimes in former communist Eastern Europe. So,
> you know, I I saw a totally different world than the policy elites
> at the time.

He seems to be the new Oprah Winfrey. Charismatic, likeable, but vacuous softball interviews constantly which end up elevating terrible people and spreading horrible misinformation.

Let me list the reasons I detest Substack. 1. You must sign up. 2. The publishers you want to follow have you with a different email. Your paid account for that author #Samharris is different from you substack account as well as all the others you follow because your smart enough to not use the same flipping email for all things. 3 spam you to follow others you for more people to follow. 4 no way to work around this without compromising my anti spam emails. F you substack and everyone who thinks its the answer.

To arrive where I started…
Whatever the origin of religion, it is so often present in our lives as a way to try to understand the ineffable; a way to give presence and weight to an experience that defies words; that takes place outside of thought and perception. What are we to do with such an experience – a thing commonly known as mystical, or numinous? It cannot be thought, or described, since it is entirely beyond the realm of cognition and language.
This was my own experience; as a young man – even as a child – I had been prone to experiences like this, for which I had no words, nor even a broad category or discipline to which to assign them. (The nearest I got to the feeling was reading about astronomy or zoology or meteorology – a sense that here was something in terms of which everything else made sense, rather than my trying to make sense of it.)
It wasn’t until I spent an extended period in hospital in my teens that I had the freedom to begin to explore; to realise that the natural direction of this condition of mind was philosophical, even metaphysical; and I was in my early twenties before it became clear that it was something I learned to call “spirituality”. When I began to discover that I was not alone in this, of course my fellow pilgrims were in general religious people, and so it seemed to me that these must be religious experiences. Despite my having early on read Jiddu Krishnamurti and Lao Tzu, it was all too easy to understand these experiences in terms of either Buddhism, or later, irresistibly, the Christian mystical tradition – which of course brought the whole complex machinery of faith clattering along with it.
Extraordinarily, despite my by then growing and scarcely repressed doubts, it took the enforced isolation of the recent pandemic, and the discovery of writers like Sam Harris and Susan Blackmore, finally to shake me loose; to let me realise that, as Harris points out so poignantly in the first chapter of Waking Up, “Either the contemplative literature is a catalogue of religious delusion, psychopathology, and deliberate fraud, or people have been having liberating insights under the name of ‘spirituality’ and ‘mysticism’ for millennia… there are deeper insights to be had about the nature of our minds. Unfortunately, they have been discussed entirely in the context of religion and, therefore, have been shrouded in fallacy and superstition for all of human history.” Somehow, I had to recapitulate this for myself; it often amazes me to realise that it took me the best part of my adult life “to arrive where [I] started, and know the place for the first time.”
