The New Atheists are hack sophists. Dawkins early work is brilliant, read The Selfish Gene. But he doesn't know the first thing about religion.

edit: shit sorry, that book ok, I thought you were reading about his atheism

Lords of Finance, by Liaquat Ahamed.

As far as I can tell, it's a book about the people who ran the global economy during the early part of the last century. I hope it's good!
Stay positive!

Maybe I'll do that again (it's been ages since I last read the Bible), but I think I'm planning on reading more on the "lifestyle" part than the "story" part of the Bible for now

Personally I sort of get the impression that he comes off as a bit of an arrogant prick when talking about religion (at least from watching his documentaries and seminars), so I do understand what you mean.

A Clash of Kings: I've read all the ASOIF books and this one stands out as the best. The characters are so likable and it's full with drama and politics. I love taking a stroll through the familiar rooms in this book. Reminds me of War and Peace. Not so much to find new things but just to revisit the King in the North, Lannisters, Baratheon brothers etc.

So good. The author drops insight like nobody's business, and the fantasy setting is quite unusual. Manipulation lies at its heart.

Now LeGuin (particularly the first 3 Earthsea books), that's some fantasy that's not trash in the slightest.

And The Left Hand of Darkness is top notch sci-fi, I think I'm gonna read The Lathe of Heaven soon.
Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

except DMT is naturally produced by the brain

omg

It's the drug that makes us dream. Smoking DMT is the shortcut version of lucid dreaming.

I've read the book and I've watched tons of documentaries on DMT and Ayahuasca. I'm going to go with ayahuasca first. The buildup to the experience isn't anywhere as instant as straight DMT

Game of Thrones is probably the only (edit: post-Tolkien) epic fantasy that's actually worth reading.


Not true, in my opinion. The Malazan Book of the Fallen is definitely worth a read.
The problem with the world is that fools are full of certainty, and wise men are full of doubt.

1. A norwegian book about philosophy told in a story about a teenage girl called "Sofies verden", translates to Sophies world

2. Currently reading Game of Thrones, thought the series was fun so decided to read the book. Good stuff!

3. Rest of the books in a song of ice and fire, obviously :p

Just be ready for the nausea if you are going to do Aya, embrace it or it will embrace you.

DMT: The Spirit Molecule is not required reading for DMT use; in fact, reading that book prior to the experience will likely influence the event in one way or another, which is fine and dandy. A still mind and some experience with lighter psychedelics is all that one really needs though (and even the latter is up for debate )
