If what is seen and experienced is portrayed in the language of logic, we are engaged in science.

The question is whether believers and nonbelievers can rejoice in the same experiences and not denigrate the other's explanation as to the origins of very powerful human responses.

Animals are constantly teaching us things about ourselves and the way of the universe, but most people are too blind to watch and listen.
Suzy KassemJames Baldwin had an unrivaled understanding of politics and history and, above all, the human condition. His prose is laser sharp.

These "Leadership 3.0" practices, as I call them, are critical to being an effective manager when you're getting started in today's world.

Richard BransonRebirth is an affirmation that must be counted among the primordial affirmations of mankind. The concept of rebirth necessarily implies the continuity of personality. Here the human personality is regarded as continuous and accessible to memory, so that, when one is incarnated or born, one is able, potentially, to remember that one has lived through previous existences, and that these existences were one's own, ie, they had the same ego form as the present life. As a rule, reincarnation means rebirth in a human body.
