In the context of the English language gnosis generally refers to the word's meaning within the spheres of Christian mysticism, Mystery religions and Gnosticism where it signifies a "spiritual knowledge" or religion of knowledge, in the sense of mystical enlightenment or "insight". Gnosis taught a deliverance of man from the constraints of earthly existence through "insight" into an essential relationship, as soul or spirit, with a supramundane place of freedom.[1]<br /><br />__________________________<br />bottom line: Gnosis is good for what ails you [Grace by any other name]; historical hysterical """gnostic""" sects that revile existence or that want to Liberal nanny-State-it-up, aint!<br />-Gnossos Papadopoulisgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02015936407999495181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-24469283749070280322013-08-02T15:04:55.634-07:002013-08-02T15:04:55.634-07:00It's all fun n' games 'till you OD on ...It's all fun n' games 'till you OD on a hooker.USS Ben USN (Ret)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07492369604790651538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-40564745294335434872013-08-02T13:10:46.339-07:002013-08-02T13:10:46.339-07:00True, the burning issues of the Libertarian platfo...True, the burning issues of the Libertarian platform probably seem much more crucial when one is one toke over the line.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-15908018180488224222013-08-02T10:59:18.701-07:002013-08-02T10:59:18.701-07:00Mushroom, lol.

It's probably why the Libertarian Party can't get any traction. "<i>We'll shut everything down and let you fend for yourselves</i>" as a slogan appeals to me, but I don't think I'm the majority. <br /><br />It's like the drug we were testing in clinical trials one time. It was supposed to help heal bleeding gastric ulcers. And, of course, it had some nasty side effects. But the reason the people in the trial had gastric ulcers was because they were taking heavy doses of NSAIDs. And they were taking heavy doses of NSAIDs because they had arthritis. So they were doomed to epic flatulence and diarrhea because of some shoulder pain.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-80982369783799188852013-08-02T09:55:33.373-07:002013-08-02T09:55:33.373-07:00A Reality is a terrible thing to waste.A Reality is a terrible thing to waste.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720790978632771716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-83777235067498439572013-08-02T09:42:53.108-07:002013-08-02T09:42:53.108-07:00Remember, it's not really the problem they att...<i>Remember, it's not really the problem they attack, but reality.
