From the Asylum

It is popular today among some to make fun of the "logical positivists" and people like A.J. Ayer. But their ideas are still needed.

So a multiple choice question:

The following quote was written by whom?

"Without eternal life (for all sentient beings) whether anything exists or not is irrelevant. Things only exist because they do. There is no reason for existence."

Anselm
Aquinas
Wittgenstein
Hume
Hagger

Extra credit for anyone able to explain what the quote means.

  1. I think it means that there is no reason for some blogs to exist. Some blogs are pointless, except for the praise they bring to the writer who thinks he's marvellous.

  3. >>The quote JUST HAS to be deep!!!!!<<

    Jack! No body could fine tune God during eternity life on earth so why bother trying if only to have fun like Shakespear did on the stage of reality life.

    I hear ya Jack! But virtual reality is so much more fun.

    Well when I get to Spiritual Grade ONE, I might have a deeper spiritual reality answer for you but for the moment that's "IT" for now. Go Figure! :)

    Peace

  4. It is has to be Haggar. It is too profound to be the others.

  7. Father Soundingbrass's Platitude-of-the-Day for September 7th, if I'm not mistook. Poor guy's a former truck-driver, gone bad. Be kind and level your expectations accordingly.
