Generally if it's based on nondualism... no: reincarnation potentially, or unity with the source of creation through death.

Magickal philosophy is almost entirely left hand path though

Hermeticism is debatably right handed, but the way it's practiced really depends on the individual

Ok

@Ater Votum What if it all was just the dream of a machine God?

Sure because it can be addictive

Eoppa

I'd say yes

<@&588707615643795456> Daily Question 🔖

- Should the book of Maccabees / The Apocrypha be considers biblical?

Eoppa
2020-03-10 22:26:06 UTC  

Yes

Maksim
2020-03-10 22:26:16 UTC  

I would say no, many verses seem borderline heretical

Punishmented
2020-03-10 22:26:16 UTC  

Yes

Maksim
2020-03-10 22:26:45 UTC  

Such as burning a heart liver and gull of a fish to repel the devil

Maksim
2020-03-10 22:26:54 UTC  

Things such as this seem more pagan than Christian

Eoppa
2020-03-10 22:28:25 UTC  

Well I'm less well read on them, but they also have verses I cite often

Eoppa
2020-03-10 22:29:15 UTC  

Like Titus 3:10

Eoppa
2020-03-10 22:30:30 UTC  

And the non apocrypha leads me to accept the apocrypha via the church

Maksim
2020-03-10 22:56:05 UTC  

Titus is Apocrypha? @Eoppa

Eoppa
2020-03-10 23:02:02 UTC  

I may be mistaken there

moira
2020-03-10 23:02:11 UTC  

what is christian opinion on separation of church and state?

Oboe
2020-03-10 23:02:26 UTC  

Titus isn't part of the apocrypha

Eoppa
2020-03-10 23:02:34 UTC  

^ correct my mistake

moira

Oboe
2020-03-10 23:04:10 UTC  

Yeah Titus is one of the Pauline Epistles

Oboe
2020-03-10 23:09:13 UTC  

I do believe there are references to apocryphal as well as non-canonical books in the New Testament

Oboe
2020-03-10 23:13:28 UTC  

@Eoppa Do you believe references to the apocrypha in the NT validate their authority or do you rely more on their presence in the Septuagint?

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:15:02 UTC  

@moira In my opinion, church and state are inheritly related but not the same.

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:15:40 UTC  

The skill of Statecraft does not automatically translate into Theological knowledge and vise versa

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:16:00 UTC  

However there should only be a single State Religion

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:16:09 UTC  

That being Christianity

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:16:26 UTC  

And the state should do it's best to adopt the guidelines set out for leaders in Christianity

Maksim
2020-03-10 23:16:44 UTC  

Such as rights of the poor, focus on justice and not on money
