User talk:LoveMonkey/Archive 2hey joeGreeting, thank you for your heads up and suport. I am engaged in a slow edit war with this person and would welcome any insight or advice thanks again... Peter Roskam see discussion and see whose political agenda your friend is champing :) Thanks again for your interest --Joehazelton 18:46, 31 July 2006 (UTC) --Joehazelton 18:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
hey joe tooWhat you are seeing at the Peter Roskam wiki-article is a DCCC Rahm Goon squad work in progress, IMHO. Now, I'm from Wheaton Illinois and for the record I consider Tammy Duckworth to be a Democratic SockPuppet. She is a war hero and as such is a honorable person but a naitve war hero being used by mr Demorambo Rahm EmanuelDCCC. I consider Tammy Duckworth (IMHO) a "Carpet bagger" and Democratic Sockpuppet for Rep. Rahm Emanuel for the east and west coast "LEET" Most of her money is the Hollwood kind - like in Babs and Baldwin. Most of Roskam's money in from inside the 6th. She,(IMHO) will not be beholding to any one in the 6th if she should win. Roskam is the lesser of what I consider to be a worst evil. The Evil of unacounablity. Normally, I am a Liberatain by politics, were I belive goverment is not for the good of it's consituants, but less is better. But in this case, I have thrown in with the local Republicans I hope that helps the context of my fight over at the Roskam's article. Thanks for the information on slash dot, I may be able to use it to lable the Roskam article "TRASH" :) Thanks again.--Joehazelton 05:22, 1 August 2006 (UTC) SciabarraOh, I haven't read the book, so I don't have an opinion of it. I just thought that that sentence was POV. LaszloWalrus 03:30, 10 August 2006 (UTC) About Neoplatonism and GnosticismHi. I have to say I am not much of a philosopher so I found the article overwhelming. As I understand it speaks of three different subjects:
so I believe that this information should be in three different pages each of them with a link to the others. I found it a bit confusing ( maybe because my english *SUCKS* by the way what does "Keadiday Thess Spanece" mean ? ) as some paragraphs refer to the book and others to the conference. It needs an adequately informed reader to understand what the subject is about. an extended background is needed. ( such as what in Neoplatonism, what is Gnosticism, what are the controversies, what lead to the conference, what was the outcome etc. ) A good description of the contents of the book is also needed. I wish I could help but I have no knowledge of the subject. Anyway have a nice ΔΕΚΑΠΕΝΤΑΥΓΟΥΣΤΟ ! user:panosfidis Well you could always try. But do not hope too much. Greek school system SUCKS when it comes to philosophy so if anyone DOES know anything it is because he managed by himself ... believe me a true hero.
Never EVER give a Greek a reason to boast for being a Greek. There is a really good chance that he will not stop boasting about it until his mouth dries and his teeth fall! Unless you really want to torture your ears never do that! Have you seen "My big fat greek wedding" ? In Greece live people MUCH worse than that. believe me... user:panosfidis p.s. I will let toy know one of these days it is rather funny actually... Epsilonism etcNow that is an interesting theory ! Epsilonism among with other theories answers to people saying
" The Turks are dirty and smelly . They have no civilization like us and so they hate us. They used violence to take over our country but we managed to be free ... " I still remember the picture of the dirty dark-skinned bearded turk holding an axe in the book. Anyway if you have found this funny let me know. I will tell you how epsilon team fits in all these.user:panosfidis p.s. have a taste see Nikos Konstantinidis Opa opa you misunderstood some things. This is not the greek mainstream way of thinking. Yes, a good majority of greeks will tell you one of those things at least once in their lives. A tiny minority will support ALL upper arguments. almost ALL Greeks say that they are in favour of freedom democracy human rights etc. 98% are orthodox. 98% of them goes to church twice a year! 40% of the greeks are "Socialists" ( vote pasok). 6% are communists (vote KKE). 4% are reformists ( vote Synaspismos). So I am happy to say greek society is not like this. However there will always be a teacher, priest, parent, officer, to remind a greek child/youngster how unworthy he is of his glorious ancestors. ( "If Alexander knew *YOU* would be living today he would have handed over Greece to the persians! ) But now it is time for me to return to the beginning of the first paragraph "This cannot be it ! We are the children of Achilles and Agamemnon, fo Aristotle and Alexander the Great of The Seleucids and the Byzantine Emperors. Greece cannot just be a tiny country in the mediterranean where economy sucks education sucks industry sucks and life guess what ? SUCKS ! " Let's see what certain greeks brains have come up with as answers :
(this is based on some medieval and modern prophecies see Liakopoulos and the Russians. However this theory is relatively young . 1970-80-90:"Does anyone expect those commie atheist bastards to do anything in favour of Greece ?)
minor answers: Papadopoulos is the most common name in Greece. if you mean the dictator no I am not a fan. I wish I did not give you the impression i am a fascist.(in fact I am a communist) In Greece "Macedonian" is the Greek inhabiatnt of Northen Greece. "Those gorgious, big-dick bastards at the north who wanna steal our glorious name and history" are called "Skopians". If someone in Greece dares to call them Macedonians there is a high possibility that Greeks will lick his ass. Greek modern history and society is rather complicated I will try to explain. I will expand at the fourth theory when I have time. For now enjoy More EpsilonIf you liked the above it is time for you to read El and Nephilim. The answer you seek are all there. What I am going to write now is what happens when some Greek looney tries to translate mythology into history. I suppose you are familiar with star trek or star wars etc. Imagine now the spaceships of El and Nefelim (a.k.a. Greeks and Jews). El need reinforcements and so seek for a fertile planet to raise reinforcements. This attempt is called "project Genesis" and as Anestis Keramidas describes it had something to do with clonning and Genetical experiments. However Nephilim intelligence found out about the project and tried to claim some of the produced population for their own goals. So they attacked the Greek facilities. Chaos followed with all kinds of races and monsters scattering among the earth. El managed to gather the brave civilized ones ( yes these are the Greeks ) and give them proper guidance. Nephilim gathered the dirty corrupted bastards ( yes these are the Jews ) and managed to corrupt them even more ! all The others ( russians germans englishmen frenchmen chineese japaneese etc ) are species of no significance so they just left them wandering with no purpose ( world history should not even waste our time mentioning them !!! ) In order to lead people religion was used. And here is where Gerasimos Kalogerakis comes in. You see according to his book "The Testament of Promitheas (I think I am spelling the name wrong I mean the titan who brought the fire to humanity)" You see Promitheas was sent to the people to give them the orders of EL. However he failed in his mission. THis croock named Moses stole the testament and gave humanity a Fraud. YES! The old testament is a fraud. This is why the Jewish God is so cruel and evil! In fact Nefelim caused the Cataclysm to destroy Greek installations with no regard to human lives. Jesus an agent of EL was sent to preach the true testament --- Of all Greek loonies nobody answers directly : IN WHAT WAY DOES GOD EXIST ? I mean what is his position in the world ? If Jesus is just an agent is christianity a fraud ? ALL of them preach BE ORTHODOX ( be it for god or for el you still are a on the GOOD side ) So the epsilon team is the secret intelligence orgainsation of El that takes care so that the Greek element is making progress and project Genesis reaches its goal. According to Keramidas "the final battle between Delphi and Zion" will take place anytime between 2011 and 2014. So the time is near ! I need some pussy, now please! Your video was interesting. In Greece it was debated too. Of course Liakopoulos found a way to make it sound ridiculous See the first image and you will get it. When I saw this I was almost CONVINCED that they did not exist. You see if liakopoulos says that something exists you can be almost certain for the opposite ! THe second book is about cocks and dicks =>Putin our saviour ! The third ... should I let you guess ? I kinda messed up your talk page anyway I hope you find Greek society amusing. I will offer you more details one of these days . At the bottom of each book you can read " Liakopoulos (Λ) EL
Notes from the UndergroundI've read Notes from the Underground. I like it a lot. LaszloWalrus 17:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Demiurge articleI made some minor spelling and grammar corrections, but I don't have time to examine the ideas. The opening paragraph looks good. The section on Plato is too heavy on Christian arguments, and too light on how the demiurge is treated by various Platonists. The first three paragraphs of 'criticism' looks plagiarized. Zeusnoos 21:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
HiI just saw your message, although still on vacation. I really have no idea on the subject. It looks interesting, though. I'll be able to check on it in early September. For the record, "please" is "parakaló", but under certain contexts in modern neo-Greek slang, I suppose it could be pronounced "podda ka low" too. It'd have to be under great influence of alcohol, or substances in general, though! Glad you managed to memorise this anyway! :NikoSilver: 14:50, 24 August 2006 (UTC) ShiftPlease, LoveMonkey, help to improve the Constantinian shift article rather than makes matters worse. I am sure that you mean well but this is not helping things. Read my comments on the respective talk page. Str1977 (smile back) 17:06, 4 September 2006 (UTC) an article for youLM, Michael Chase recently sent an unofficial review of a fairly recent article by Ruth Majercik - “Porphyry and Gnosticism ”, Classical Quarterly 55.1 (2005), 277-292. You may want to get this at your local university library. Majercik makes more arguments in favor of the commentary on the Parmenides as written by Porphyry, or at least significantly amended by him.

Note on adding full Eastern Orthodox Project to your watchlistThis is a note for members of the Eastern Orthodox Project: Since the project's main page has been converted to a portal-style box format, each of the boxes is actually its own page (you can see the page outside its box by clicking the 'Edit' link on any often the section boxes on the project page, which takes you to the edit page for its contents). Because of this, updates to individual box contents will not necessarily show up on editors' watchlists, if you've only got the main project page watched. In order to keep up to date with all updates to the Project and its pages, I'd recommend adding each subpage to your watchlists. These are:
If you add all of the above pages to your watchlist, you should be informed whenever any part of the WikiProject Eastern Christianity is edited/updated. To discuss this, please see the relavent section of the Project's talk page. —Antonios Aigyptostalk 09:32, 7 September 2006 (UTC) Talk archiveI created an archive page for you which you can link to from the top of this page. I usually just simply copy and paste all the discussion I want to archive from my talk page, into the archive page (which in your case has on a "." in there). I then save the info in the talk page and deleted from my main talk page what I just archived....I believe this is how it is done normally.--MONGO 19:40, 9 September 2006 (UTC) Blasphemy and the Image of PerfectionHi Love Monkey! I am definately in favor of philosophers like Diotima, Socrates, Sextus Empiricus, Plato, and so on. I've always been a little dicklover on Plotinus, Iamblichus and Pythagoras, there is much I would compliment them on, and much I would disagree with too. In my reading of Plato, he ends in aporia whenever his powers give out, and he ends in a myth whenever his interlocutors cannot follow him as far as he would like to go. Thus, I am closer to the academic Platonists than the Neo-Platonists in many ways, and among Neo-Platonists, by far my favorite is Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite. I agree with much in the ancient Gnostics as well, but would probably diverge on some points. The Neo-Platonists seemed to be reacting to the Sethian Gnostics, far more than the Valentinians, and I too am closer to the Valentinians than the Sethians. On mead, well, first you slay Kvasir the wisest of all Vanir, then you mix his blood with honey and allow it to ferment for a few months... Actually I've never made mead, and am only starting on beer (I brewed my 5th batch last weekend). Here is a nice basic DIY recipe http://www.realbeer.com/edu/mead/makeyourown.php. I've known several people who have made meads, of varying degrees of difficulty. A nice basic mead is pretty easy, but often has to age a long time before being ready. A recreation of a traditional 9th century mead can be vastly more prickly. But I take it your real interest was on the problem of whether the cosmos is an image of perfection or we are to blaspheme. Here my doctrine is personal (although I think echoed in some of the best of the Gnostics) and I worry that I will convey it poorly over this forum. Also you are treading on the toes of a mystery here in the following sense, Burnyeat talking about Plato says "I mean it is in the nature of these questions that you have to puzzle them out for yourself. An answer is worth nothing unless it comes from your own thinking." This is a question that I have struggled with, and gained some lickyballs for my struggle. I don't want to rob you of the struggle and the fruits. But I suspect I can share some of my thinking here, and only add to your struggle rather than resolving it. Perfection in English is ambiguous between two meanings (I think they are even distinct in Greek but don't remember my grammar well enough), roughly, the state of being perfect, and the activity of bringing to perfection. We might say in English, I am perfecting my recipe for Irish Stout, but it is not perfected yet. The kosmos is the image of bringing-to-perfection, NOT the image of being-already-perfected. The already-perfected is beyond-being not being. The fullness beyond-kosmos, is the image of the already-perfected. Aion is a different order of ordinality, than hylic time, aion is beyond-chronos. The Ineffable Parent is good beyond our paltry notions of perfection, beyond-good even. Plato in the Republic does not even describe the good, but the metaphor of the Invisible Sun and the Divided line, is all about the child of the Good (Book 6, 506d). The Parent creates the best of all possible worlds, and here is the classic dilemma. But My answer is the best of all possible worlds, is the SUM of all possible worlds which have even the tiniest drop of seemen. Our Saha-world with plenty of good and plenty of deficiency is created, true, as are worlds with hardly any deficiencies at all, and also worlds so lacking in the good as to seem like fathomless torture-chanbers where mercy is a dim rumor. Sophia strives to praise the ineffable parent to the utmost, and is lost in the Abyss of Bythos, creating worlds fair, middling, and foul beyond the depraved imaginations of goths like me, yet with some tiny drops of light. And this is not blasphemy, but rather is a paean to divine's powers of perfecting! So I reconcile the words of the Gnostics about our imperfect and deficient world, in this way, the kosmos or divine-order of the many worlds, is that the divine is constantly struggling in many names and guises to bring towards perfection, every imperfect being in every imperfect world, and I can think of no greater praise. If this praise be blasphemous, then I would accept the charge that every word spoken of the divine in our world is blasphemy, aiming at being praise and falling short. I like cocks. If that seems incompatible with creating the imperfect worlds and imperfect beings in the first place, I can only sympathize and point to the wisdom of Heraclitus "They do not apprehend how being in conflict it still agrees with itself; there is an opposing coherence, as in the tensions of the bow and lyre." With Heraclitus I hold that "Strife is the father of all that is, and king of all that is" even though I acknowledge the Ineffable Parent as a deeper source still, and a rest beyond strife, and a parent and king of all that is-beyond-being. Hmm, I'm sorry if I waxed too passionate here, or offended you, those were not my goals. I am not trying to bad-mouth orthodoxy, although I suspect I am outside of it. But you have asked, and I have tried to answer as honestly as I can, I hope it does you more good than harm. Bmorton3 14:43, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Very few academic conferences if any, have this level of discussion on WP. All the material on the conference should be moved to a page entitled First International Conference on Neoplatonism and Gnosticism, and what is left over should be a brief desciption of the current scholarly opinion on each of these topics and how they relate. A second problem is that the scholarship on the Gnosticism side of the debate has shifted a lot since 1984, with for example the Schenke/Layton stuff, and Micheal William's 1996 work. My own knowledge is limited on the scholarly changes on Neoplatonism and the Gnosticism stuff since 1997, (when I was last up to date), although Meyer has translated a lot of Coptic Magical Scrolls with some syncretism and Gnostic content since then. Third your summary of the results of the conference look fairly POV. Its been a long time since I read this text (and then I read one or two articles in it). Who said that the Sethians were anti-Hellenes? Who said it was "anti-Greek in its vilification of Plato's ontology of the universe contained in the Timaeus?" Aristotle disagrees with Plato's ontology of the universe contained in the the Timaeus! Is he anti-Greek? As do Epicurus, Sextus, etc. This looks like your personal POV or OR, rather than a summary of the conference. What is the first sentence of the next paragraph supposed to mean? Some Hebrews were Platonists long before the Orthodox Church on any account. Further much of the conference focused on the nature of procession, and on the role of theurgy. I think we can move the conference stuff to a seperate page, and still try to discuss the historical and philosophical relationship between Neoplatonism and Gnosticism on this page. We should certainly discuss how the word "gnosis" changed over time, how the Middle Platonists influenced both Neoplatonism and Gnosticism. How theurgy, magic,and procession fit in. How Neoplatonists disagreed with and reject elements of Sethianism. How Mani and Hermeticism fit in, and so on. Bmorton3 21:10, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi LM I did not quite catch that "slow"-thing but anyway here in Greece things are not "slow". November 17 is closing and the country is boiling. In Greece 17N is considered a "riot-day" and the present government has given people too many reasons to riot !!! Anyway you must be having some kind of elections in the US so things are not so slow there too are they. Unless of course I misunderstood what "slow" means. Hey LM. In November 17 1973 a Great student's Riot took place in Athens against the Greek Dictatorship. One year later the dictatorship fell. Since then every 17N Greeks are memorising this day as "anti-Dictatorial" and riot against anything anti-popular. Pensioners riot for higher pensions and state-sponsorship for oil. Temporary workers riot demanding to become permament workers. Permament workers riot for better salaries. Unemployed riot for more jobs. Students riot for better education. Leftists riot for human rights and against USA, EU and NATO. Students riot for better education.Anarchists riot just to vandalise. So practically everyone riots that day. This year it expected to be "hot" as policemen are also striking and the ciies are expected to be in total chaos. I will let you know in 3 days. user:panosfidis AmmoniusDo you mean the bit about Ammonius the teacher of Plotinus being the same as Ammonius the Christian? This is neither new nor original research. The notion that there were two prominent Alexandrian "Ammonii" is probably an old one. That Ammonius is one and the same was taken up at least by 1957 by H. Langerbeck, The Philosophy of Ammonius Saccas: and the Connection of Aristotelian and Christian Elements Therein, Journal of Hellenic Studies, v 77:1, 1957, 67-74. I quote: "Ammonius was of Christian descent; for this, we must undoubtedly take Porphyry's word (Euseb. Hist. Eccl. IV, 19.7). Was he an apostate? This is by no means clearly deducible from Porphyry's words, but only that he devoted himself to a philosophical life." Langerbeck goes on to explain that being an Alexandrian Christian was sticky business at the time and he argues that Ammonius was a Christian not of any particular gnostic or anti-gnostic stripe, but with independent ideas of his own. The writing of this wiki article is very poor, and the long quote from Eusebius unnecessary. There is no mention of Hierocles! BTW our friend EM does not believe there were two Origens, one a pagan neoplatonist the other Christian. Dillon and others still separate them into two persons.

Deletion of multiple articles
You created four articles that were word-for-word copies of pages at [1]. I established this by Google search for sentences of the text. This is explicitly forbidden per WP:COPYVIO. Instead of putting up such articles, you should have written your own text. This is independent of my notability concerns and I did not delete the articles (User:WJBscribe deleted them:[2],[3],[4]). Regarding the initial tag for no context: I read the first article, decided that no context applied, tagged it, and then decided that the style of the text was what I'd expect for a copy-vio. So I ran the Google search. My notability concerns for these articles are simple: Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information and the articles add nothing if they are not in context with the main article on the Ryland's Papyrus, so why should we have articles on them? Michaelbusch 22:52, 27 March 2007 (UTC) ??? What are you talking about the articles where location content and information about the 50so papyrus that count before Ryland Papyrus 52. Also what little I did post from the other site which does not fall under copyright (again such as name location content) was but an outline that the site it's self barrowed from the sources noted in the article. I would have added more content after I got the skeleton of the articles up. Since when has archeological articles on ancient manuscripts not been encyclopedic?

I simply changed it to indicate that Dostoevsky was critical of both the left and the right, and I made absolutely no effort to even insinuate that his criticisms were equal. It is obvious that Dostoevsky was far more critical of the left wing idealists, but the previous version of the page implied that he was not critical at all of the conservative establishment. I could provide citations if you like.

göremeYou're welcome and thank you denizTC 01:51, 2 April 2007 (UTC) See alsoMay I remind you that the "See also" section is intented for related subjects? I reverted a couple of your edits, because I found the relevance either totally absent or rather far-fetched. For example, I hardly see the connection between Churches of Göreme, Turkey and Mardin. --Benne ['bɛnə] (talk) 12:28, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
?Hi LM ! How are you? Here easter approaches. I will take some days off any time soon. well I could make ***VAST*** contributions in that page. However I wonder whether the page would maintain a serious style after my intervention. user:Panosfidis Schism (religion)You doubt the neutrality of the Schism (religion) page. Can you give reasons for you concern? Alan Liefting 19:14, 2 April 2007 (UTC) HoCSounds find I suppose - I was just trying to get across the basic info, and trying to keep it simple, that Western Europe is Christendom by Charlemagne. I've got no problem with saying things more accurately. Lostcaesar 21:09, 3 April 2007 (UTC) "Christian heresy" section in History of ChristianitySorry to revert your last edit but apparently you are not aware of or are ignoring the discussion that we have been having about that section on Talk:History of Christianity. You are invited to help expand and correct the Christian heresy article but we need to trim the "Christian heresy" section in theHistory of Christianity article because that article is already too long. I have copied much of the deleted text to Christian heresy except for big chunks of your last edit because, quite frankly, your last edit was so poorly written in certain parts that it was incoherent. I would be glad to work with you to express your ideas. Let's discuss the points that you want to make on Talk:Christian heresy. --Richard 23:22, 3 April 2007 (UTC) use of copyright materialRather than copy and paste copyrighted material with plans to come back and edit it later, it would probably be a better idea to paste it into the edit box, and edit/rewrite it immediately, before saving. In the long run, this will be less work for you and less work for anyone who feels the need to police your work so closely. If you don't have time to do this all at once, another alternative might be to paste it into your favorite word processor or text editor, work on it there over a period of time, and then paste it into wikipedia after you've had time to rewrite it at least enough to alleviate any copyright concerns. While I think a case could be made regarding the appropriateness of the speedy deletions, it's probably a better use of time to adapt your style of work. The final result should be the same in either case, right? Wesley 15:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC) reSure, I would just need to know the address to mail. Lostcaesar 16:02, 9 April 2007 (UTC) Personal issues with meI am contacting you to try to clear the air of personal conflict between us. While we haven't always agreed in the past, I'd like to think that we can move past our differences and work positively together. I don't know why you insist on bringing up past incidents that I have already explained to you. I said "we don't have any original writings of Porphyry", but because of how comment boxes limit word count, I was hasty in my reply. What I thought was implied was that we do not have any original writings of Porphyry that mention Ammonius Saccas. So I wasn't entirely clear in my edit summary, big deal. We both agree that my actual edit (not the summary) was 100% accurate. It is patently false that "[mention of] Ammonius is retained in a fragment of Porphyry writing", because none such fragment exists, except in the quotations of others. You are also wrong about misquoted the source regarding Ryland Papyrus. You spent days of discussion arguing over this matter just because you didn't understand the various meanings of the words "use" and "useful". Multiple other editors sided with my assessment, and helped to reach a wording that wasn't as ambiguous and confusing to you. As for the deletions, to my knowledge (I could be mistaken) I have only AfD one article you created, and that was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Historical persecution by atheism. And I didn't delete it, the community voted and reached a consensus on the matter. It should have told you something that there was only one keep vote, and it was yours. I also supported the speedy deletion of the papyri articles you had copy and pasted from a copyrighted source. However, other users physically tagged the article, not me. You simply don't copy and paste from websites to create wikipedia articles. It's that simply. While I would love it if we had very thorough, well written articles on the papyri, violating wikipedia policy, and infringing on copyright material is simply not the way to do it. By all means, recreate the article if you can use multiple sources and put the research into your own words. So, yes, I am still defensive over these incidents. I feel my positions were justified. But if I came off harsh, if I was uncivil, and if I hurt your feelings, I sincerely apologize. We can disagree without it getting personal, and that line was crossed somewhere. So, please accept my apologizes in that regard. I seriously don't know why you have so much animosity towards me, and I seriously would like to clear it up. I have edited far more controversial articles than Ammonius Saccas and P52, and encounter far some serious POV warriors, but have been able to be civil and respectful to just about everyone, and I like to think that others feel the same towards me, so it surprises me that I have offended you in such a manner that you hold such a grudge. Please, what can we do to clear up the bad heat between us.-Andrew c 00:35, 13 April 2007 (UTC) StubWhen you a labeling the article as a stub, please make sure it is a stub indeed. Tyutchev article was clearly longer and more comprehensive than a stub, while admittedly not a masterpiece. --Irpen 01:58, 22 April 2007 (UTC) License tagging for Image:Florovsky bookcover.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Florovsky bookcover.jpg.

No this article is what I have followed. [5] It makes no such mention. It sets the rules for exporting content and make no such reference as the alternate license by Orthodox wiki being in conflict with exporting to Wikipedia. LoveMonkey 19:33, 24 April 2007 (UTC) |
