I think it's very interesting that you mention that you turned away for Christianity 15:43 and yet, in your films, you seem to be seeking what is True. I don't think I'm assuming too much in saying that. In my experience, that is not they normal path of someone who has, in your words, lost his faith.

Would you be so good as to cite for me examples of the evidence Murray uses here to support his conclusion, and to "destroy bad ideas "? It's just that a logical argument requires evidence, but Murray seems to adduce no facts or data to substantiates his claims. There is little more here than vague, impressionistic assertions, most of which are either strawmen or ahistorical.

@Adam Jacobs Custard. Have you noticed that custard nowadays doesn't taste like it used to when you were a kid? Douglas didn't say a single word about the taste of custard in the interview. Perhaps Douglas doesn't eat custard and is completely in the dark about it. But it is far more likely that there is a well orchestrated propaganda campaign funded by dark money sourced from food industry multinationals. If Douglas were to start talking about the taste of custard, we might all realise that the food industry has been selling us crap for years and ruining our health. Flower pots. I bought a new 30-litre plastic flower pot for my fig tree. Colour of terracotta to match the other pots that sit on my patio. I was disgusted to find that I actually had to cut the irrigation holes in the base where excess water can drain out. Flower pots always used to have the holes pre-cut when you bought them. Yet Douglas said absolutely nothing about this in his interview either. Perhaps Douglas isn't a fan of gardening. Maybe he lives in a flat and doesn't even have a garden. But it is much more likely that he is an accomplice to this outrageous scandal and knows full well that there is a well orchestrated propaganda campaign funded by dark money sourced from the plastics industry. If Douglas were to suddenly blurt out how flower pots no longer have holes in their bases, we would all see how the plastics industry is abusing its customers AND consuming unsustainable amounts of fossil fuels in the procsss.

Of course their words amount to nothing more than attracting the attention of other self serving and uninlightened people.

Cool, calm and collected. A masculine guy bordering on spiritual. The best of English today.

Good one 🙏 thank you. When he said about society needing to go beyond the ideas of sex It made me realize was a blessing it was to be introduced to Indian scriptures especially the Upanishads. The yogis push humanity to go beyond the mind and consciousness and have put down their experiences in detail. It's a road map of what humanity can achieve but at the end leaves it in our hands to choose the path (or not). The society was divided into 4 life stages, the first one being the student/learning age followed by the life of a householder and so on.... It is sad to see today's students brainwashed with rubbish, all stages mixed into one and left with no direction

Douglas,great to hear you again.

In an attempt to achieve equality and equity, they discriminate against those they perceive as the oppressors. So in effect, what they need to realise is that inequality will prevail. The victims will change not the inequality.

20:19 I like Douglas's point regarding certainty. To me, that is the main issue. Not so much religion, but dogma. Religion without dogma is fairly harmless. But take anything seemingly harmless and even good and add dogma to it, and it becomes incredibly harmful. That being said, the other side of the coin (nihilism) is also quite dangerous

It's not madness it's mental illness, but today society tend to encourage this illness as per normal behavior.

The woke mindset accompanies the victimhood hierarchy, so that one may abdicate responsibility for thoughts, feelings and behaviour. This is the reason for the perpetuation of perceived struggle and oppression. It is a cloak of sanctimony which conceals a deep envy of the success of others, which has been achieved though talent and hard work.
