Post Philosophies From The Brother's Karamazov Here

I'm only a little way into the book and I'm kinda busy, so, sorry if I post in this thread not often enough. But, here's something I posted in my blog from the book: "The less one has to think about the decisions he is making the happier one is. Dostoevsky says just that through his character Ivan in the Brothers Karamazov. Ivan continues to say that wouldn’t it make sense that a group of priests after spending their life in the monastery, etc , try to make people religious even if those priests don’t believe in God because the people will not have to worry as much about things since they believe in God".

I'd delete the link to your blog before the mods do. It's technically self-promotion and shits.

Ugh. If you start a thread, have the fucking conviction and responsibility to maintain it rather than posting a disclaimer for why you probably won't.

Is there anyway I could promote my blog here? I joined this forum for that (I don't need a support group).
I apologize, epimethean, but this thread could probably continue without me updating it several times a day Smile

You joined to promote your blog? Well, I would suggest contacting an admin about perhaps paying to have an ad set up. Otherwise, you're wasting your time. Stop spamming, please.

Perhaps we need a great big banner on the account creation page to let people know that this is not a blog advertising service? (*) Cool Shades

Not unless you pay for it.

I think I've previously said we would accept $30 a month for a small banner ad at the top of the site. For a simple link, $15 a month.
