The Urban Mystic: The Myth of Cultural Relativity
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-myth-of-cultural-relativity.html
The Myth of Cultural Relativity. Why is it that on every video about Egypt, or archaeology in general, there has to be someone who leaves a comment about racialism?

The Urban Mystic: Overpopulation is Officially Bullshit
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/06/overpopulation-is-officially-bullshit.html
Overpopulation is Officially Bullshit. The New York Times. Has finally admitted that overpopulation is bullshit. Paul Ehrlich from Stanford University terrified millions of people with his 1968 book The Population Bomb. That predicted hundreds of millions of people would starve to death by 1970! Admits "As you may have noticed, England is still with us. So is India. Hundreds of millions did not die of starvation in the ’70s.". They don't talk of the forced sterilisation. Has eaten crow and admitted there...

The Urban Mystic: Uri Geller's Tricks?
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/05/uri-gellers-tricks.html
If y'all remember the early days of The Urban Mystic. There was probably the biggest, and maybe the only, controversey in Urban Mystic history when Bob Couttie. Tried to spam the site! I let him post his comment and then eight months later he posted the same comment and I deleted it and then he accused me of censorship. That led to some work by a reader/guest contributer. Countering Couttie's claims regarding Uri Geller. One day I will turn it into a separate page on the site as well as a video series.

The Urban Mystic: Why "Taxing the Rich" Doesn't Work
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/04/why-taxing-rich-doesnt-work.html
Why "Taxing the Rich" Doesn't Work. There are at least 7 reasons why the idea of taxing the rich and giving it to the poor does not work. I'll break them down for you below. 1 "Not Rich" Syndrome. The definition of who is "rich" is a lot like a number of other terms that belong on sliding scales. Someone who is rich is usually someone who has more money than the person making the definition. "I'm not rich, but that guy over there making $30,000, he's rich." That guy says "Rich? You must be joking! And if...

The Urban Mystic: Meditation Problems and Benefits
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/05/meditation-problems-and-benefits.html
Meditation Problems and Benefits. Here's a Daily Mail article. About the supposed dangers of meditation and how it's evil and you should just take a pill. There's a bullshit study out in the Lancet about all of seven. Prisoners who used some sort of mindfulness practice. Inmates at seven prisons in the Midlands took 90-minute classes once a week and completed tests to measure their higher cognitive functions in a ten week randomised control trial. Unconscious aspects the self does not identify with. ...

The Urban Mystic: A Tale of Two Rebirths
http://theurbanmystic.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-tale-of-two-rebirths.html
A Tale of Two Rebirths. There are two main versions of the mechanics of reincarnation that I will call "old" and "new" for sake of simplicity. The old system has been around for thousands of years. While the details differ slightly, it is the system of reincarnation taught primarily by Hindus and Buddhists, but also by some ancient Christian sects and in Judaism until about the fifteenth century. A good outline is provided in an essay by Ken Wilber called "Death, Rebirth, and Meditation". There is a tend...
