Your thoughts on ism's
From Dogma
) Having belief isn’t good? B) I think it is better to have ideas. You can change an idea. A belief is trickier. Life should be malleable and progressive; working from idea to ideas permit this. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can’t generate. Life becomes stagnant. Debate that is the only way people reaffirm that they are alive-by debating. In all its forms. We spend our whole lives debating: we fight about who is right who is wrong, we fight ourselves, we fight each other, we death, we fight over beliefs. People say life is a struggle. It is no. It is about living….belief is a dangerous thing. People die for it and people kill for it
