Re: Essential Reading = ?
It's an old book. Just ask for it on inter library loan. I found the book! My college's library has it. I was trying to figure out how to spell the last name for a while, then I saw The Essential Writings of William James (ed. Bruce W. Wilshire--duh! of course that's the spelling) in a downtown boo...

But yeah, I did phrase that strangely...sorry. No big deal though, right?

Re: Overrated sex
The media is brain washing people saying being gay is not a choice. It is politically incorrect to say practice of gay is sin. I say it's mean, and possibly theologically incorrect. Much of the time, homosexuals can't help their sexual orientation. Most heterosexuals have always had longings for th...

Re: Essential Reading = ?
For my money I would go Plato, Gibran Kahlil Gibran bin Mikhael bin Saâd, Henry David Thoreau, Augustine of Hippo, Siddhattha Gotama, Immanuel Kent, Descartes, and Donatien Alphonse François. Kent and Descartes are really hard reads so I hope you are a good readers, I might even save them for latte...

Essential Reading = ?
[Apologies if this is a duplicate post.] Hello, everyone! And thank you for inviting me to your forums, Metacrock. (Remember? A few months ago? I asked you about John Coltrane.) I am really a n00b in philosophy, theology, and the like, and I was wondering what you (Metacrock) and the others here wou...
