There is controversy probably in my opinion because the place this happened in is in the Mormon heartland.


Well, I am not sure if the Mormon church has an official position on this sort of thing, but that is irrelevant. Freedom of religion means that people are allowed to believe in heretical nonsense like Mormonism, but they have no right to go around forcing their beliefs down other peoples' throats.

I suppose you are right...but the way he was talking with Fahran made it sound as if he thought they were somehow on the same "team".

I find that Charles De Gaulle might be fitting here "No nation has friends only interests". In this particular case, this might apply more to posters here in this thread when they make some interesting alliances that is.

I agree that the teacher was wrong because her actions were arbitrary and necessary, but I would not frame it as a matter of rights. After all, some schools require students to wear uniforms. The problem is not with regulating how students look and dress, but with arbitrarily punishing students who did not break any rule.

Oh yeah, I noticed there were some details in the original posters story that did not make sense. Now I wonder if they were deliberately trying to make a point or just messing around.

That source was their source.
They just hoped people would not read it.

So clearly they were posting in bad faith.

This seemed like a concept that most posters here would be interested in, wondered what you thought about it. The concept of the Eternal Return influenced a lot of the philosophical schools that I'm fond of (kōgaku, kokugaku, etc.) as well as other right-wing modes of thought.


But the concept does not mesh well with Buddhism as Eliade himself notes.
Buddhism is about breaking free of cycles, not perpetuating them.

Also kokugaku rejects Buddhism and Confucianism as foreign BTW.

Moreover other scholars note the idea is not common to all religions, only certain ones.

And why would you want to try to return society to a time a myth was first created, when most myths were created in times much worse than now?

There's something called dress code, and if the school has one that bans makeup then no they don't have the right.

Yes she did do something wrong. She acted in a unfairly harsh and arbitrary manner and was punished for her actions. I do not see why there should be any controversy over this.

Well if she humiliated him then yes, she was too harsh. But all I'm seeing is that she gave him a disinfectant wipe, or something the clean off the makeup on his face. Something I'm missing?

Ok, you have a point there. I still don't think boys should be wearing makeup unless it's for acting, fooling around or if it's for music (Kiss wore makeup for example).

Buddhist lore is filled with mythical golden ages, and several Buddhist leaders were motivated by the belief that this was a degenerate age where enlightenment was impossible. One of the central ideas of the Shingon school is to create Vairocana's Pure Land here in this world. Eliade wasn't well informed about Buddhism or Hinduism and he operated under a simplistic notion of those religions.
Novus America wrote:Also kokugaku rejects Buddhism and Confucianism as foreign BTW.


Some members of the kokugaku rejected Confucianism and Buddhism, but the position wasn't universal. There were Confucian followers of Kamo Mabuchi and Hirata reaffirmed Confucius' notion of social relations. Motoori himself, despite claiming to be an anti-Buddhist, converted to Amidism before he died. That's beside the fact that I don't have to agree with the kokugakusha completely to admire them. Any more than I have to agree with Itō Jinsai's criticism of Buddhism to admire his philosophy.

The mythical ages described aren't synonymous with the actual time periods that took place.

Theres no need for rules in warfare if the ultimate end goal is to genocide the human race just so the reapers let you live another century.
