  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN December 19, 2012
  Hey folks...long time no hear! :)  Here is a piece I thought very inspiring and needed to share.  This was from Stephen Prothero, a Boston University religion scholar.   1. “It was God’s will.” There may or may not be a God, but if there is, I sure hope he (o...

• FACTS: The Darkside of the Christian Bible...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN November 23, 2010
  Growing up in a strict Catholic environment, it was hard not to read and re-read the Bible over and over.  Being an independent thinker by heart (in other words…a hidden Humanist), I began a quest to study history on all world religion and admire these wonderful books that were created t...

• Lost in Christian Translations…

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN January 11, 2010
  Lost in Christian Translations… I believe everything must have balance to function correctly. Anything new must be broken in. About 2k years ago…this new and edgy religion called Christianity came to be, which has spread like wild fire both in population and new denominations. The on...

• What if everything you believed was a lie?

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN December 21, 2009
  Regardless on what religion or non-religion you are in at this time....what if?  What if you woke up tomorrow and everything you had thought was true was a deception? A deception formed by people that stood to profit from your ignorance. Not just on one small area but every facet of your exis...

• Religion is "JUST" a Metaphor...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN November 24, 2009
    What if People Actually Treated Religion as Just a Metaphor (Like Secular Jews)?   It's possible to keep the good parts of religion -- like the music, rituals and pageantry -- and get rid of the sex-hating dogma, the belief in god and other troublesome aspects?   If religi...

• FACTS: About Religion history...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN November 18, 2009
    Religion is also responsible for massive tolls of death and suffering from a wholly different perspective: holding back scientific progress, when it felt that such progress threatened the religion's authority in some way. In other words, humanity would likely have far more scientific kn...

• Founding Fathers

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN November 18, 2009
  The Founding Fathers had good reasons to separate church from state in the creation of America. For prior to that the church often controlled the state in various places around the world, and did many of the awful things listed before (look up the Inquisition sometime for just one example). The ma...

• Is the Christian Bible a MAN-made book?

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN October 14, 2009
  Here we go again.  I say MAN-made books due to the fact of my knowledge of theology history! I have heard it from nearly every Christian who corresponds with me. It is the statement that the bible-- being a perfect book, written by forty writers all inspired by God-- has remained unchange...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN August 28, 2009
  I have read your words and they are true Indistinct from the deepest truths At first we mistake this magic gem as rubble Then suddenly we see it is a jewel Ignorance and wisdom aren’t different The ten thousand dharmas are simply so But for those who cling to dualistic views I take out my bru...

  Buddha’s Satori +++++++++++++ For six years sitting alone Still as a snake In a stalk of bamboo With no family but the ice On the snow mountain. One night, seeing the empty sky Fly into pieces, he shook The morning star awake And kept it in his eyes. - Muso Soseki (1275-1351)

  "Keep your heart clear and transparent And you will never be bound. A single disturbed thought, though, Creates ten thousand distractions. Let myriad things captivate you And you'll go further and further astray. How painful to see people All wrapped up in themselves."  &#...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN August 6, 2009
  Here is a nice story I read that might shed some light to some… I’m not claiming that non-believers and believers always get along, but I do know that they can get along.  I know this for many reasons.    How this could possibly be true?  Here’s a bit of background. I previ...

    Daily Reading of the World of the Buddha - There are these six ways of being considerate. What six? One has love in deed toward one’s companions in the holy life, both openly and in private; one has love in word toward one’s companions in the holy life, both openly and in private ...

• That I am

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN July 31, 2009
  This is what I believe: That I am I. That my soul is a dark forest. That my known self will never be more than a little clearing in the forest. That gods, strange gods, come forth from the forest into the clearing of my known self, and then go back. That I must have the courage to let them come...

• Thoughts on Hell...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN July 28, 2009
  Food for thought... In a mathematical sense, eternity is a long way off.  We may approach it, but we will never arrive.  In reading and commenting on a blog I read called "Whatever happened to Hell", I have to wonder if the spiritual version of eternity is also infinite in natur...

  Here is a refreshing article I read:  ...from Barbara Repa, a Caring.com senior editor. This is the hardest of questions -- made especially hard since your mother isn't sitting beside you to give you an easy answer, like she probably used to do.  Both the meaning of dying -- be...

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN July 27, 2009
  An article I read abit ago was quite interesting...This article on Ignosticism comes from Wikipedia and does an excellent job of expressing the position of many friends I have encountered throughout my life.  We are focused on what does exist.  What doesn't exist is unimportant to us....

• Praying to Jesus

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN July 27, 2009
      What if we pray to Jesus like this: "Dear Jesus, please appear to us, as you did to Paul and the 500 brethren, so that we can see the evidence of your resurrection. In your name we pray, amen." Here is what Jesus has promised us in the Bible:   Matthew 7:7 Jesus says: Ask, ...

• Being Like PAUL

  by Dr. Anthony ADRIAN July 24, 2009
  Food for thought... When we look at these Bible passages, there is a question that comes to mind -- why did Jesus stop making these appearances? Why isn't Jesus appearing today? It really is odd. Obviously Paul benefitted from a personal meeting with the resurrected Christ. Because of the pe...
