In such a philosophy it would not be hard to imagine a god in the phenomenal realm who could still influance the noumenal realm. |
Now im back to asking for evidence  I see no evidence for duality? is it called duality?
The next 20-50 years should be interesting though, If the law of accelerating returns holds true...might get some answers to these age old questions... |

Kant was a philosopher, not a scientist. He reasoned in as logical a manner as possible (though not pure logic, in the philosophical sense) but ultimatly it is not based on evidence. It is based of a set of assumptions which he thought this was the natural conclusion of.
As I said, the human mind is not well understood. I don't think it is possible to say "If god were talking to people, we would be able to detect it" |

none of these links contain any evidence or proof.
here is some nice quotes for you though.
Joseph Schacht - The criticism of traditions as practised by the Muhammadan scholars is inadequate and that, however many forgeries may have been eliminated by it, even the classic corpus contains a great many traditions which cannot possibly be authentic, all efforts to extract from this self contradictory mass an authentic core have failed. - search for historical muhammad.
So many scholars have also accepted totaly uncritically the traditional account of the compilation of the Quran, but this account is in the words of burton, a mass of confusion, contradictions and inconsistencies, and is nothign short of scandalous that western scholars readily accept all that they read in muslim reports on the discussion on the quran" - the dark rise of islam. |
