There are different sects. You have to be more specific

Satanism? How does that fit in there at all. It was not founded by rational thought unless "Let's piss off some Christians" counts. And they do follow a Holy Book (see:the Satanic Verses)

Hello?

So, I'm trying to remember the name of a philosopher, and I'm hoping someone cold help. He's well known, and all of his teachings were copied down on paper by his students. He talked of subjective realities, as in if I'm standing in a classroom, the rest of the students are only there because I want them to be there. Ring any bells?

I know this isn't who you're thinking of, but Rene Descartes is well known, and coined the phrase: "I think, therefore I am."

Oh, I have a quote from his second meditation under my name.

I looked through some old notes, and I think the name I was looking for is Georg Hegel.

I was gonna say it was him, but I wasn't 100% sure.

[Potz4Prez]

Would've been a good guess.

The first is that you just need to be a part of a religion that uses reason > faith, which I consider Satanism to be part of. But then in another quote you said something about having a deity but using reason rather than faith, and on that point Satanism fails seeing as we have no deity.
Seeing as you're the head of this shindig, if you think Satanism counts than I'm in

Satanism has a diety. Yourself, lol.

Yay, I bought a new car. I got my grandfathers 2002 Accord LX with 18k miles on it for $7500. Gotta love buying a car from an elderly family member. Now I just have to buy an Ipod compatible stereo and put it in.

Honda I have a '97 Civic and haven't done anything but regualr maintenance up to this point (155k.)

Placed into "honors calc placement" and tested out of reading today

What all where you up to over there?

[warbeak2099]

Summer training cruise with the Navy. I can give more information when I get back. Right now I'm on liberty in a Norwegian port and my ship is still here so I can't say anything about what we're doing. Once I get home and the ship has moved on I can talk about it. It's been a blast though. The ports we've visited have been pretty rocking. Good times and good European booze. Especially the Belgian beer... gaaaaaah that **** is good.

very nice, I need to go to Europe once I graduate.

[Potz4Prez]

I hope to study abroad in England.

The Navy.... if only I had the mindset for it.

Just got back from a 9 day trip to Colorado/Utah. It was awesome.

The only interesting I have done over the summer months is sneakily drive down to Lakeland, Florida and kidnap my friend from his mom.

[Potz4Prez]

Ha. Sneaky. Should've done it balls-to-the-wall, action style. Explosions included.

I haven't done much over the summer. So far, I think my biggest accomplishment is having not spent all of my money out of boredom.
