Lsson.........TWO.....

I’m lost at lesson two. Lesson two was harder than last lesson. I think this lesson mainly talking about the Philosophy vs Ethics and cosmic cube. I was interesting about the cosmic cube because I heard about only cosmic cube. I couldn't think about the truth like that much deeply using with word cosmos and universal. Truth and reality was very profundity things than what I thought. His explanation about cube was strange. Illustrates the naturalistic worldview belief that there is nothing outside the cosmos; reality is a closed box and all truth must be materially perceived. How can sure about nothing outside the cosmos? I thought of this cube is different. If there is truth in the box, outside of box will be exist more majestic things than truth. We don’t know about any truth of ourselves, so we can’t say like nothing is outside of the cosmos. I really like to discuss this kind of things, because I can learn something in the discussion. No answer of this kind of discussion so I can think what I want and I can say with confident what I thought. Another interesting was between personal worldview, formal worldview and biblical worldview. This lesson mentioned like consequence of a non-biblical worldview is buying the lies and conform to the world. How about if we have biblical worldview? What is different? I don’t know why Christian said bad way to non Christian. They don’t have any confidence and nothing sure as a Christian, however, What they talked about non Christian was more cruel and has certain form for what is wrong to them. Today I couldn’t finished lesson, so I will keep listen about lesson two then I will see the how is it going and what is his conclusion.

The Truth........?

Before I start I searched word meaning Veritology and it means study of truth. So my thought of The Truth Project was very interesting and deep. His teaching was pretty different than what I thought before. What I thought of question of why did Jesus come into this world? was very normal. I said because of he want to came. The professor said Jesus came to world redeem us, save us and testify the truth. This view has different point with me as a not Christian. Also I am very wondering about why people always trying to solve problem from God. Why always Christian? I think we also have to mention about other religions like buddhism. That is sound more fair. If it has details and appropriate reasons. I will get interested in Veritology, because I think I can learn more about truth. The second thing in this lesson was about Cosmic battle. I though like is it space war or very serious discussion between agree or not. In this lesson it means battle between God’s Truth and the lies and illusions of the world, the flesh and the devil. but I can’t understand about truth and lies. What is truth? Is it what Jesus said? However, we can’t define truths and lies, maybe God also can’t define truth, because we don’t know at all. We can’t believe what we think wrong then that will be become lie. Truth depends on peoples mind. If we can’t agree truth it can be lie to us. Even if God always said the truth, it’s depend on person who listen. I think it’s not our fault. If God exist, he has to persuade all of us as a God. If he can’t, it means he failed as a savor. just I hope to learn something in this lesson.

Eyes.....open????

One year ago, I heard this story by song. That why I researched about exactly situation. This story happened in Chung-Ju, Korea. It’s story about two high school students. This two students loved each other so much. But their love reached girl’s pregnant. Then, they thought best way to solve their problem, because they don’t have any ability to take care baby. They were just student.  When they still thinking about solve problem, also girl’s stomach growing. They were tried to solve problem. But they couldn’t solve problem. Then they decided something together. Their choice was suicide. Next day they jumped at the apartment which is 35M high(15th floor). They left their will for parents. It said that sorry for baby, parents and they were loved so much. This is the end of the story. They didn’t choose blindness in this situation, because that’s impossible to ignore. However, I really don’t understand their way of solve problem. Death can’t be a solution for any problem. They just escape their hardship, so I can say they were bad example of solve problem. Even if their eyes open to problem.

Anxiety

To me anxiety is really serious thing, because I don’t have anxiety in my life. I really do not want to use my brain for any anxiety. However if I have anxiety, I will deal with anxiety by sleeping, playing with others whole day, eating a lot, and….maybe fighting. I am usually skips my anxiety. Because I think my anxiety is smaller than others anxiety. To me hunger and bored are my biggest anxiety in these days. I can’t live complicated life. Even if anxiety comes to me I will skip easily. This is my coping strategy of solve my anxiety. However conflict between others is pretty different. because it depends on people who have conflict to me. For example, conflict between me and my brother. I will try talking first then we will fight. This is best way of solve problem me and my brother. Me and parents also different, In this case I have to obey what parents said if I was right. I like my family’s way of solve conflict. It’s so easy to me. But I am not good at conflict with other. I feel like I have to understand them because they are different. So I just trying to hear what they talking about and what they want to me.

Ending???

Ending of this story is so tragic. Jocasta suicided herself, because of the shame and sorry for Laius. When Oedipus saw Jocasta, he pierced his eyes himself. Then he left city with give up everything even his position of the king. They are so….. cruel family. They choose too hard punishment for themselves. Lauis killed by his son, Jocasta suicide, Oedipus pierced his eyes. Who can say they are normal family? When I read the ending I really felt…. Pity and sorry. I thought it will be happy ending. Because of most of old story finished with happy ending and this story don’t have any good things before ending. Also i really couldn’t get the what author want to talk about. This story has just tragic ending with no teaching. Everything goes what oracle said, and nobody can’t changing that oracle. Even if they try best to changing bad things, nothing changed. Just I am wondering about if Oedipus was humble person not as arrogant and ambitious person. then he may not be a king of Thebes. Also the ending of the story can be changed a bit. I want to know about why author wrote story so tragic without comedy or any other positive things.
