  1. Yes, this channel is wonderful for discovering the hidden gems among the various religions. They all contain absolute Truth; Truth that has been covered in rubbish through superstition and intellectual masturbation. As Socrates illustrated so well, WISDOM is knowing the LIMITS of one's understanding. Wisdom is knowing that one DOESN'T know. And intelligence without wisdom is like a boat without water; it won't take you very far. But wisdom is the water that will "float your boat." And if you want to sail past all of the presumptuous intellectual masturbation of the past several millennia, it takes but 5 minutes to read "The Book of God" at A Course in Truth. 5 minutes of absolute, Divinely-revealed Truth. What POWER 5 minutes can have!

  2. BIAS is more common than most people understand. For, conscious perception is ENTIRELY based upon JUDGMENT. And judgment is ALWAYS a subjective variable. REASON has a solid, absolute, and unchanging foundation. Anything less is NOT reason, but a counterfeit. And that which is LIMITED is IRRATIONAL by definition. So, only with this in mind can one begin one's quest to find reason. And one will first meet Socrates, who illustrated so well that WISDOM is knowledge ONLY insofar as wisdom is knowing the limits of one's understanding. Wisdom is knowing that one does NOT know. Socrates, like the pre-Socratics, embraced the most advanced philosophy, which was informed by The Limitless (Divine revelation). For, beginning with Plato and amplified by Aristotle, wisdom was displaced by presumption, assuming limited (irrational) proofs to be rational proofs. And this has misled modern civilization, as my book "The Holy Grail is Found" points out. Intelligence without wisdom is like a boat without water. It won't take you very far. But wisdom is the water that will "float your boat." And if you want to sail past all of the presumptuous intellectual masturbation of the past several millennia, it takes but 5 minutes to read "The Book of God" at A Course in Truth. 5 minutes of absolute, revealed Truth VS thousands of years of false presumption! What POWER those 5 minutes have!
