Inspirational People - As much as word for the day, I'll add to this list as I want to...

‎"Inspirational people" now amount to twenty-one and they are:
Hans-Georg Gadamer
Jürgen Habermas (Juergen Habermas)
St Augustine
St. Thomas Aquinas
Yamamoto Tsunetomo
Confucius
Tsun Tzu the Art of War
Carl Gustav Hempel
Jacques Derrida
Rudolf Carnap
Immanuel Kant
Merrie Bergmann - author of the "Logic Book" for being thorough in writing a book of learning
Neville Chamberlain +
Winston Churchill, both of whom won a Nobel Prize, and both were agressive on the Nazi-Germans with Battleground Mentality to go! (Against WP:Battleground by WP:Idiots.)
Thomas Paine
L. Ron Hubbard, that is, people can laugh at mr. Hubbard all they want "in being (so) academic or not", but fact is that they don't know religion very much and that his text of follower autonomy, common-sense (vs. "headless-Sharia" by deluded religious) rel. ethics and tolerance toward other religions and creeds as such, personal or... sets him in with the geniuses for all time to come, like it or NOT!
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli
Charles André Joseph Marie de Gaulle
André Malraux
Gaius Julius Caesar, for matters of Rome and our New Roman Empire and for being, probably, I don't really know, the best Roman emperor!

These are essentially the list from Facebook!

The religious code of Scientology (Hubbard's) is found here (for free): http://www.thewaytohappiness.org/ , The Way to Happiness. In the same breath, I also now recommend Scientology 0 -8 (from Planet Earth/"here"/Thetan to Eternity/Infinity).

Personal Acceptance of Faculty of Theology and Considerations over Thomas Paine

I can now accept Faculty of Theology as part of every university because as much as one studies arts and more (subjective) aesthetic topics, that it can provide a kind of satisfaction (and avoid the cultish) to provide the openness of university to show for the artful / senseful ways of Islam, Christianity, Judaism, and the others, also, by formal notice, the main mission, to provide the religious guidance through life in properly educated ways (let's forget, therefore, as a kind of celebration of priesthood "speaking to us today", the very uneducated quality of a perverse person such as Hitler)!!!

Caution: I don't want the association with Thomas Paine yet although I've been inspired by his clear thought as much as Johann Kaspar Schmidt has inspired me by his (early Schmidt) statement over God!

I have yet to read Paine's most important work (and that this is the biggest reason) and that I may be of strong Christian belief given some possible exemptions of the liturgical / theological kinds (despite the fact that I have written that I am NOT a Christian, but that this has to do with membership of a given Church, that it has been impossible for me to take part in the Norwegian Church because I haven't had the ease of mind and that I've feared they would use it as an excuse for further violations against my life, maybe unpopular too with the common church-goer, result thus, exit 2003), that fx. I refuse to lay my sins on Jesus, but expect to be punished for them "until God satisfied" in the Purgatory!

I'm good and I hope you are too! Cheers!
