'A Tragic Hero ŕ La Shakespeare
 
  It is impossible to hold a conversation with people
who claim that only mainstream can be right; since
current science declared evidence for afterlife circum-
spect while religion only reveres ancient documents,
they refuse to do their own research, read new books
and surf the Internet

When such a bitter person, an atheist with sad face
dragging on the floor, was asked to check evidence
that man is first a spirit invisible; he undertook to do
his own enquiries within a period of about a hundred
years, because first he wanted to reread the whole
corpus of philosophy

He refused to read all eye-witness evidence for life
continuing after death, refused to read Arthur Conan
Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes and author of the
book The History of Spiritualism, refused to read a
book by Arthur Findlay On the Edge of the Etheric
printed in 1931 -

A runaway success still in print today, to be down-
loaded free of charge from the Internet, he still claims
all evidence for things spiritual is a game only, he
rejects evidence on the grounds that it was not taught
at university, his old professor knew nothing about it,
and who is he to question

The infallible authority of culture and tradition? He is
so happy in his bitterness, he fears that if he loses it, he
will be held accountable for his own choice of moods, as
long as he can blame an outside force - in this case,
AUTHORITY, he is not responsible for his
dramatic suffering

A tragic hero ŕ la Shakespeare, his choices inevitably
dictated by his character and the impersonal fate who
endowed him with a faulty personality…
