Re: Christian Existential Humanism
I hate to break the bad news to you but modern Humanists are well established and they are enlightened enough not to believe in god or any other silly religious fairy tales. Go to: http://www.humanism.org.uk/ to find out more.

    Re: Smooth Criminal
    For a long time, I have regarded the "moonwalker" version of Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" as the finest music videos I have seen. This blog entry glibly distills the elements that make the video so appealing: music, story, choreography, dress, extras, multi-style and multi-period effluence.

Standard problems include those of free will, personal identity, mind-body problem, other minds, computationalism, etc. The philosophers of mind deal with metaphysics as it is concerned with the nature of mental phenomena, how mental phenomena are related to natural phenomena, and philosophical psychology broadly construed. Philosophy of psychology is sometimes considered as a subfield of philosophy of mind. However it is, perhaps, more closely related to philosophy of science. While the great philosophical distinction between mind and body in western thought can be traced to the Greeks, it is to the seminal work of René Descartes. The history of philosophizing about the relation of body and mind since Descartes is the history of attempts to escape the Cartesian impasse. Early maneuvers of this sort, such as those of Malebranche, Spinoza, Leibniz, and the French materialists La Mettrie and Cabanis, were formulated in the context of metaphysics, in direct response to Cartesian dualism. Later views which arose in the 19th century needed to reconcile evidence from studies on the localization of cerebral function and on functional nervous disorders with prevailing theory in biology and psychology. These discussions reflected the newly accepted view that the brain serves as the organ of mind. Although these theories of mind/brain relations -- epiphenomenalism, interactionism, dual-aspect monism, and mind-stuff theory -- were formulated in the context of science, they too were oriented toward circumventing the Cartesian impasse.

    Re: Jedi Philosophy
    Actually, I would say (given my reading of not only the films but the Expanded Universe novels) that the Jedi philosophy has some correlations to the Religious Existentialist Humanist model. I say "Religious" because they do not specifically follow the God of Christianity but they do claim to serve the will of an all-encompassing divine force. As existentialism goes, Yoda and others make mention of the power of choice, and how it is our decisions that have impact on the world around us (for example, the decision to take command of an army of clones, or the fateful choice Anakin makes in selling his soul to the Sith). And as humanists, the Jedi are concerned with the preservation of life, not only because of their activity in the Force, but because of their potential, and their capacity to do good and achieve excellence. Yes, there are the aforementioned Crusader and Eastern values that motivate their Order as well, but I think there is room for all kinds of dimensions and degrees within their philosophy that we can debate endlessly, and that in itself speaks to the marvel of the universe that George Lucas created.

    Re: Jedi Philosophy
    Also, it is not love or emotion they preach against, but the inability to control it. When Yoda councils Anakin to train himself to let go of that which he most fears to lose, he isn't saying don't love her anymore, he's saying you can love her but don't lose control when you lose her. All things are finite and temporary, so you will inevitably lose everything you love. So be prepared to let go. By loving everything without attachment, you will find peace. Yoda tells Luke that he will know the good side from the bad when he is calm, at peace and passive. Unemotional is not cold and uncaring, it is simply detached. Yoda cares for people. He expressives warm feelings in his heart when he sees that Padme was unharmed by the assasination attempt on her life. But he is still unattached to her. If she dies, he won't lose control and give in to hatred. Also, Mace Windu is bursting with emotion when he fights with his lightsaber, using form VII, or Vaapad style of fighting, which taps into intense emotions of aggressiveness, almost bordering on dark side qualities (which makes vapaad a very dangerous lightsaber technique that only Windu can use, because he has control of his emotions, not because he doesn't have emotions at all).

    Hi, my name is Katelyn and I was incredibly excited to find Kitopedia last year. The agenda of the site and my own personal agenda align peacefully. It is such a relief to know that we can work together of these issues – and there are places where I can find inspiration and insight.

Specifically, my team (ChangingThePresent.org - a nonprofit org) is helping raise money and awareness to support the Tutu Foundation’s peace education programs - designed to address the problems of violence and apartheid in South Africa by teaching peace to young children in school.

    Re: Geoffrey Griffin
    Hi Christopher,

    I am thrilled by your writings and they touch on issues of great interest. I see you writing about the late Dr. Griffin of Starehe Boys' Centre, Kenya. i happened to have been a product of Geff, and a very proud one for that matter. I have written an inspirational book and dedicated it to Dr. Griffin. It is a wonderful book and you may see/pick a copy from here: Author House

    Today, I run a center more or less akin to Starehe Boys except we still support students in their various schools. I have a charity program that seeks to empower the less-fortunate of the society through education. I focus on orphans and widows through a feeding and school program; besides, I run community libraries to open up the village and give a chance to the populace to rise to the zenith of their potential. my life philosophy is simple but potent: To live To Love To Serve i.e. The reason I live is to express the Godly love and the way I love is through service.

    It is wonderful coming across your works; it'd be wonderful to catch up on phone or email.

    many thanks.

I believe the only way our Nation can regain its morality is by putting God first. The only hope for our country is to stand up and say, "we need God in America again!" P.S.

    Re: Christian Existential Humanism
    I also call myself an existential Christian, but I feel that an existential needs to state that God is not present to any of our senses, so He does "not" exist; He "is", as Paul Tillich would state, but does not exist. Jesus would not be God, which means that I would be an"gnostic". All here on Earth is "sin", because all that not of God is sin. Christ, as I see it is a "concept" and/or embellishment of Jesus of Nazarath. The Jews are "not" the chosen people, but all people are chosen and equal before God, their creator. Comments?

    Hey there Christopher...Great to read your thoughts. I am an American living in India, near the place associated with Avatar Meher Baba. As I read your written pieces, while surfing the net in rural India, I thought that maybe you would be interested in reading Meher Baba's book "God Speaks". You can look it up on Wikipedia or Google it to see if it is something that is interesting to you. I am "myself" very eclectic and it was interesting to "meet" someone with such varied tastes as "yourself". Your ability to analyze and comment articulately was very impressive. And at such a relatively young age as you are. Good luck with your studies and with your journey. May God help you...and may you help others with your ability to communicate, bring harmony and make things simpler. Meher Baba once said that a philosopher is someone who makes simple things diffficult. But you seem to be a philosopher who can make difficult things simple. Bravo! That is what poeple want and need.

    Re: Christian Existential Humanism
    My friends and i really like philosophy and are Christians. i'd just like to say that your website is great...the more i read the bigger the smile got on my face. this is exactly what i've come to believe too. i was turned onto existentialism by one of my Christian Psychology professors and saw it as being the natural compliment and check against Denials of Death that we get caught up in (Ernest Becker). keep up the good work...i pray we can share the balance provided in this philosophy with as many as possible.
