Does consciousness end with the death of the body
by givemejustalittlemoretime inapparently, the carvakas in anceint hinduism were materialists and skeptics, arguing that consciousness ends with the death of the body and that therefore we should take pleasure in this life while we possess it and practice compassion toward others.
they also argued that direct observation is the only certain way to know anything, and thus the existence of supernatural forces and realities cannot be established and must be rejected.

CO position going away
by OwnAccord inso i heard this on another site just throwing it out there because there's been talk about it here.
i'm sorry i can't answer any questions i'm just relaying the information.. the branch is considering replacing all circuit overseers with 3 brothers per circuit to oversee needs.
24 congregations per circuit with 1 brother each assigned to 8 congregations each on a yearly rotation.

This is a cheaper way to police the congregations if they do it. But it will also cause a loosening of the WT Corporation's control over each congregation, as in 'when the cats away the mice will play'.

The writer is obviously compartmentalizing his cognitions:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compartmentalization_(psychology)
Compartmentalization is an unconscious psychological defense mechanism used to avoid cognitive dissonance, or the mental discomfort and anxiety caused by a person's having conflicting values, cognitions, emotions, beliefs, etc. within themselves.
Compartmentalization allows these conflicting ideas to co-exist by inhibiting direct or explicit acknowledgement and interaction between separate compartmentalized self states. [1..
Psychoanalytic views [ edit ]
Psychoanalysis considers that whereas isolation separates thoughts from feeling, compartmentalization separates different (incompatible) cognitions from each other. [2] As a secondary, intellectual defense, it may be linked to rationalization. [3] Related also is the phenomenon of neurotic typing, whereby everything must be classified into mutually exclusive and watertight categories. [4]
Otto Kernberg has used the term bridging interventions for the therapist's attempts to straddle and contain contradictory and compartmentalized components of the patient's mind. [5]
