Whoever through desire, hate or fear,
Or ignorance should transgress the Dhamma,
All one’s glory fades away
Like the moon during the waning half.

Whoever through desire, hate or fear,
Or ignorance never transgresses the Dhamma,
All one’s glory ever increases
Like the moon during the waxing half.

Age of Reason

Who are you? What is the story of this Blog?

I have been described as an automaton of the internet; an emotionless machine without a face or an identity, and the blog that I operate is ever changing and self-fabricating.

The topics that it has taken under its wing shifts from that of anti-theism, inspirational philosophy, nihilism, science of Buddhism, ethical philosophy, astronomy, spiritual atheism, historical atheists, mythology, Biblical truths, gnosticism and agnosticism, existentialism, atheist bigotry, sources of truth, Christian fundamentalism, Buddhist spirituality, as well as many other philosophical and scientific areas of interest.

This is the Age of Reason, and reason comes from a plethora sources, people and ideologies. If you decide to stay be sure that at some point in your occupation you will be offended by something that you see or read; if you’re easily offended I suggest you turn away.

Otherwise, I would like to invite you to participate by sharing with everyone your philosophy and let us into your mind. Tell us what reason is to you.
