Anyway according to article 18 and 19 of the human rights manifest I have the right…
Article 18:
Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.
Article 19:
Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.
Though the ability to speak doesn’t necessarily imply that one is intelligent? Still I thought it to be interesting to give it some attention here!
Without trying to suck up to anyone… In a way the open source community and all its resources (including wordpress amongst things) remind me of the benefits one has by these so called inalienable rights. Thank ‘God’ for that or something?
So do I like to make fun of religion or people who sincerely believe in something I sincerely do not? No I do not! There are a lot of people on this world who believe in something and as such have their actions correspond with any such particular discipline. It doesn’t matter to me who is going to walk the old lady across the street or any other act of charity that correspond with what most disciplines have in common. To help each other (on our way) whenever possible?
I can’t say that I believe in nothing! Because that would imply that I believe in nothing as a believe in and of itself! It would be impossible for me to say I believe in nothing. To me this is like saying I do not exist while I am existing now? It’s simply impossible to be non existent and to claim that you are!
Anyway before I drift off with a non existent dialogue with myself. I do like to think and I do like to ask myself the big questions like who am I and such?. So from time to time I think it would be best to write about such things as I am doing now and see where this will lead me?
Anyway speaking of faith and my own believes etc… Well I am not an atheist I am very sure of that! Why? It’s impossible for (hu)mankind to know it all! Therefore to box up nature as we perceive it now by existing rules (we invented ourselves) and say this is it…?
No, I daresay not but I do daresay that a ‘Christianized’ version, (Like Halloween and Christmas is perceived by me as an Christianized version of Paganism) of our existent theories, based (mostly) on empiric evidence, is false too! Sorry but it takes a lot more than 6000 years to ‘create’ an Earth as it exists today but go ahead have fun with that delusion?
Does this imply that any other human (seems to happen a lot?) can tell the same (hu)mankind I know (all) the anwser(s)? No. You want to know why? Not because the person has an intimate relation with someone I should refer to as ‘God’ or something. No it is much simpler!
He/she has a belly button…. Some revelation right?
Anyway my HPOV … (Is it an NPOV (if you read the tooltip) perhaps then?) is quite simple. I do NOT believe in God but I do believe in something. He/She/it can not be defined by any of our existent theories. Why? Its a concept/idea and like any other concept/idea you can’t see/feel/taste or touch such a thing. What we can see is an imperfect version of it in our universe…..?
So much for me and my take on Philosophy? Better luck next time!
End of conscious stream…
PS:
Oh! One more thing. This is a sort of disclaimer! Feel free to hit your backspace button or back button in your browser to get away from this ‘crazy’ Dutch man’s page… I as in me always speaks on his own behalf and from his own point of view.
Other than that: All links and content provided on these page(s) are provided on a ‘as it is’ based concept. I (unless under a previous agreement between you and me?) neither invited, asked or told you that you should read, follow any link given or that you should use any advice or info as is provided by any third party. These I might have used to construct any idea or theory I might have about so much anything.
To do so would fall under your responsibility not mine!
All the best!
The Court reiterates that the press plays an essential role in a democratic society. (…) freedom of expression is applicable not only to ‘information’ or ‘ideas’ that are favourably received or regarded as inoffensive or as a matter of indifference, but also to those that offend, shock or disturb the State or any section of the community. In addition, journalistic freedom also covers possible recourse to a degree of exaggeration, or even provocation (…).
I like mine to be shaken and not (to be dis)stirred.
I spy with my own little spying glass…
As I come to think of it I am not the kind of person who idealizes many men. I don’t have a male role model in mind as in now I really would want to be like that guy.
Not entirely true as I come to think about it! I like the gentlemanliness as shown by James Bond in several of the movies I saw in the past. When I was with my dad this one time in two weeks on a rainy Sunday I usually watched rental movies.
The second thing I like(d) is the use of all these ’sophisticated’ gadgets. I mean who wouldn’t want a cellphone that can turn into a sports car or which can emit a enemy piercing laser beam when you push another button?
Anyway how awesome would it be to be at drift in sea and then to get picked up by some fishermen’s boat? Better yet you’ve got some thing up your hip which emits a Swiss bank account number when removed from your’s. You can speak like several languages you probably weren’t even aware off like Dutch: “Kan je mij vertellen wie ik ben. Zo ja, hou dan op met het gezeik en vertel me wie ik ben.”
The Bourne Identity somewhat reminds me of Memento. I mean you wake up on a boat; you’ve got several bullet wounds in your back and you seem to have all kinds of gifts/talents/skills that you know how to use without thinking!
Now that’s awesome!!!
At least now I know who I want to be like when I grow up…
I was reading this article. What’s so wrong with masturbation? Go figure.
Being born in the liberal and therefore supposedly not feeling any kind of shame country called the Netherlands.
I don’t mind to talk about sex. That last bit would not be completely true! Though my mind contains a lot of thoughts of which I should spare you the contents. Some of those are of a sexual nature others well those would be about daily dull events like paying the taxes doing the laundry and in general about how to live my life properly.
I am not going to talk about what I’ve done who I’ve been with etc… I am sure that there are enough other blogs out there for you to read about or just to read for your own kinky pleasures and desires. Or if you prefer to see a bit more (Still very decent!) than be sure to check this site and this one.
I won’t tell you just because I don’t trust you or anything but because I feel awkward myself when people especially familiars around me talk about aspects of their sexlife (As I am a male I don’t consider my stories to be that interesting for you either.) Do I get jealous or feel envious? No not really! Though for some that might be the reason for telling me their “succes stories” in the first place?
My main point is that I don’t understand that something which is so joyful to experience gets so much negative attention or ridiculed as such!? Should one feel guilty for having feelings of sexual arousal?
This might be caused by other people’s opinions maybe? Who defines what’s right or wrong? Or because some people I refer to as sex offenders (have) “tained” the experience for some. No, I dare to think you should not feel ashamed!
I believe every person whether male or female is ‘allowed’ (you don’t need my approval/permission as much as I don’t need yours.) to freely discover their sexuality. I am okay with every aspect of human sexuality. This however does not automatically imply that I would participate in every aspect of human sexuality.
As long as the following criteria are met you’ve got my ‘blessing’.
Basically as long as it concerns two consenting adults than why should I laugh at, ridicule or for other purposses make fun of those practices? Have fun! Do it safe and be well!
Click me, to write me a decent mail. Just put a little effort in it. Show me your ability to string those neat little characters into words and those into beautiful sentences that would want to make me write you back. You’ll see that I’ll do the same! :grin:
