[QUOTE="JayJay, post: 69149, member: 147"] The self is an "illusion" generated by the brain. Thoughts appears without a thinker, there is no ghost in the machine. There is no soul, there is no core, there is no essence. The only thing close to that are simply genes. Read neuroscientist and philosophy of mind Thomas Metzinger's The Ego Tunnel. We are products of causes and conditions, hence no free-will. Most of life occurs at the unconscious level, so who's to blame? Our brains? Causality? Only those who by causes and consigns crate enough self-referential conscious loops of thought through therapy, self-assessment and the like can 'escape' some of their conditioning. Stop believing in one of the most retarded religions which projects what they adore (God) and fear (Satan) of themselves into outside entities. Realize this projections depend on causes and conditions such as the brutality of ancient life and the need to believe in something. Observe how God takes the form of the goodest of parents, realize it is the absolute panacea of comfort. At least Buddhism got it right with causality (karma), and has nice explanations on how to alter your behavior and purify your mind via mindfulness practices such as loving-kindness meditation.
