twincityhacker"Teach Yourself Eastern Philosophy"
I've gotten all the way though ten whole pages so far. Not because it's hard to slog though, but every page or two I pause and look out the window and think about what I've read. Or combining what I'm reading with what I already know.
In this case, it was about how it's kind of silly to put down religion because of science, or science because of religion, because they both spring from the same base - philosophy - and that one is just a diffrent way of looking at things.
From my viewpoint, it's like science is short grain rice and religion is long grain rice. They are grown for diffrent things, and it's hard to make sushi with shortgrain and kouskous with longrain, but at the end of the day, they're both rice. ( And taste delicious! )
And no matter how bad the rice comparison is, trust me, it's way better than my original Windows Vs Mac Vs Linux comparison.
