Random Building Thoughts - 2024-05-12

 

-------------- WHACKY --------------  
 
  
A Brother Who Knows Not 
His Vices & Superfluities 
Has No Clue 
What He's Whacking.
 
-------------- VICES & SUPERFLUITITES -------------- 
 
 
-------------- LOGIC CHALLENGE -------------- 

FILED UNDER:  
A STUDY OF LOGICAL FALLACIES...

I shared this years ago, 
not due to my faith 
but because I was 
not convinced by his arguments. 
There were entirely too many 
logical fallacies to enumerate here.

The biggest Fallacy I spotted?  
False Dichotomies.

Which Logical Fallacies can you list?
 
 
-------------- HUMOR --------------  
 
 
-------------- LYING --------------  
 

 
-------------- DIG! -------------- 
 

Truth is what you eventually Find 
when you Reach the Foundation 
of a Mountain of Lies. 
When you want the Truth, 
Start Digging!
 
 -------------- MAKING AN IMPRESSION --------------  
 

For those Important Instances 
when Making any 
Far Reaching and Lasting Impression 
is Simply not enough.
 
-------------- CARDINAL VIRTUES --------------  

FILED UNDER:  
CARDINAL VIRTUE APPLICATION

At times, 
Peace of Mind requires 
the Judicious Application of the Block Function 
so Prudently Provided by Facebook
 to use once Foolhardy Fortitude 
has run out of Worthwhile Temperance.
 
 -------------- THE PROOF --------------  
 
 
The Proof that Knowledge Alone 
does not Improve a man 
is Overwhelmingly Obvious. 
The Proof that so many People 
Choose to Ignore this Proof 
is Equally Obvious.
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 

Brothers who 
Deliberately Misrepresents 
the Works and Words of other Brothers
in a Malicious Effort to Persuade 
and Misguide his Fellows 
to View Unkindly their target's very heart, 
has only dirtied themselves
and the title "Brother" 
Entrusted to their Safekeeping. 
 
-------------- THE PURPOSE --------------  
 

"The very purpose of religion 
is to control yourself, 
not to criticize others. 
Rather, we must criticize ourselves. 
How much am I doing about my anger? 
About my attachment, 
about my hatred, about my pride, my jealousy? 
These are the things which we must check in daily life."
 ~ 14th Dalai Lama
 
-------------- MYTH --------------  
 

“What is it we are questing for? 
It is the fulfillment of that 
which is potential in each of us. 
Questing for it is not an ego trip; 
it is an adventure to bring into fulfillment 
your gift to the world, which is yourself. 
There’s nothing you can do 
that’s more important than being fulfilled. 
You become a sign, 
you become a signal, 
transparent to transcendence;
 in this way, you will find, live, 
and become a realization 
of your own personal myth.”
-- Joseph Campbell, Pathways to Bliss
