    Quote from Mike Anyayahan

    Yes. Nothing is pleasurable in bothering myself whether or not god exists. It's enough I have figured out my take in this issue, and I move on to something more positive.

    hey Mike Anyayahan --- I read about the volcano in the Philippines. I hope you're safe!

    We've covered almost every topic we've ever thought of in the thread devoted to the SofE 20 Tenets, but the Volcano in the Philippines is probably distinct enough to branch it off into a new thread. I wish I could move this into the Welcome Mike Anyayahan thread, but i don't think I can. Let's use this thread instead.

    Yes Mike, let us know how you are doing and if you are affected!

  • Cassius January 13, 2020 at 2:30 PM

    Changed the title of the thread from “Followups on New Users” to “Followups on New Users - Mike Anyayahan”.

    Cassius and Hiram Thanks for your kind concern. My family and I are safe. Our place is not in the affected areas, but the areas that are affected especially the places I used to live are now covered with ash fall and mud. Some of them are like ghost towns now. It makes me imagine how the old kingdoms in the desert world were wiped out by sands and mud. Some places are already deserted. Many people are now in various evacuation areas. They left their dogs and other domesticated animals, vehicles, and so on, yet the condition in the evacuation areas is also bad. I can't imagine how families with young children cope up. We're fortunate we live south of Luzon.

    "It is not the pretended but the real pursuit of philosophy that is needed; for we do not need the appearance of good health but to enjoy it in truth."

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com

What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:

  • First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
  • Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
  • Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
