Yoga's results, like christianity's, are indistinguishable from wishful thinking. All these religions, including yoga, all claim an improved life, but an improved life is not the indicator of what is true. Reality might be very depressing, but your insistence that life must bring you satisfaction is the beginning of your flaws. The rest is garbage that follows that premise.(March 25, 2015 at 12:43 pm)Surgenator Wrote: You forgot to add "because yoga says so."Yoga give results so by getting results you can say whether it make sense or not.
You never tried the real yoga so you are NOT in a position to judge.
End of the story.
Quote:I have bad english skills as well (as some grammar nazi's will point out). However, it is not your english I'm questioning. It is the definitions of words you want to use. I demand an agreed upon definitions because I don't like it when people try to define their belief as truth. I don't know if you would do such a thing, but I'm not going to give you a chance to do so.Quote:Your avoidance of using current or even older definitions shows you don't know how to communicate your ideas.If you judge by my bad English than i may understand why you think so but i am sure that even if my English would be perfect you still would find something wrong with what i write.
Sorry pal if i can't make you happy but life may be a bit though when you go against mother nature.
That is your problem not mine.
Quote:Save your over simplistic view of how the world changes. The world changes mainly because someone was able to CONVINCE the rest of society to follow. All you been doing is spreading flawed arguments that are not convincing anyone here.Quote:Society decides what the definitions are. The dictionary only writes them down. If you want to go against society, then there is a white padded room waiting for you.Wrong again pal.
If someone wouldn't have gone against the main stream there wouldn't be life on earth or we still would be living in caves.
The jails in the countries under dictatorship are full of political prisoners and not only in the places under dictatorship.
People who came up with new ideas are always persecuted but at the end the reason prevail.
Just look at you guys.
In same places atheists are persecuted just because they go against the main stream.
Soon or later however there will be freedom of choosing and nobody will bother you anymore but to achieve this you will have to go against the mainstream.
They may even put you in ........white padded room.
Quote:You clearly never studied any real science. I don't know how else to point out how wrong you are about analogies vs models and what scientist and engineers actually use.Quote:Analogies are not models. A model is much more refined.Analogies lead to improvements so it is irrelevant whether they are models or not.
Quote:There is too many wrong assumptions in your previous statement. I don't want to write a paragraph about it so that you wont read it.Quote:Your rebuttal is even stupider. I don't agree with your inaccurate analogies, and definitely not the conclusions you reach from them.A perfect excuse for not answering my question.
Nothing new mate.
Quote:You mean you witness them sticking stuff in their cheeks. You don't know if there nerves (that are in their cheeks) are already dead; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if they are just ignoring the pain; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if they are anesthesia; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if there is a neurological reason on why they seem to feel no pain; you assumed there wasn't. To many assumptions on your end to justify your claim.Quote:You cannot prove any of this. You just wish it to be true.I did prove to myself by being there and see that.
Why don't you go yourself there and see that so you can have a good reason to believe?
