Disproving The Soul

[Mudhammam]

I need to start reading philosophy.

Yeah, dude!

I've gotten into some Nietzsche, Hume, Kant, and look forward to eventually delving into Spinoza and Descartes, to say nothing of the Greeks and Romans (one thing; Lucretius is great!).

Lots of excellent stuff to be found. They really make much of the current theist-atheist debates appear lacking in many aspects, almost juvenile; there is a certain art to writing not often employed today--a style of elegance, respect for the arena of ideas--that flows through the pen for these guys, at least that's my take.

Also, I'm reading William James' (psychologist) Varieties of Religious Experience (1902) right now, and I feel this should be required reading for everyone interested in religious discussion!
