I'm right. I'm wrong. I'm right and wrong. I'm neither right nor wrong. |

I'm wrong. I'm right and wrong. I'm neither right nor wrong. I myself have studied quite a bit of Eastern philosophy, and have actually come to accept the ideas and concepts and use them as a base for my own personal beliefs. I think there is defintely a wealth of potential knowledge and wisdom to be found there. |

I'm wrong. I'm right and wrong. I'm neither right nor wrong. I have moobies. I don't have moobies. I have moobies and don't have moobies. I neither have moobies nor don't have moobies. |

Let's make a mondo out of this: - I'm right. I'm wrong. I'm right and wrong. I'm neither right nor wrong. -- I have moobies. I don't have moobies. I have moobies and don't have moobies. I neither have moobies nor don't have moobies. - Where do you come from? -- Moobies are on every fat man - If you don't understand fat men, why don't you ask a moobie? -- Fat or not fat, isn't that like cooking oil? - Fool! The universe is this moobie. Where do you want to rest? |

Confucianism is the way to go. It isn't spirituality, just common sense. |

I think there is defintely a wealth of potential knowledge and wisdom to be found there. I agree. You can find a lot there to complete the biased worldview of scientific materialism. However, I do not understand why there is such a preference for Eastern philosophy and metaphysics. You have to rely on dodgy translations and interpretations and lack the cultural background that is necessary for a real understanding. In the Occidental culture area, there are teachings that are far more easy to access for Westerners. Maybe it's the common misconceptions of magic, alchemy, astrology, etc., that keep truth-seekers from dealing with it. |
