This week on MindMatters we discuss the difficulties and challenges of looking at our own thought processes, default beliefs, and sometimes obsolete "knowledge" of things. There's a reason people don't like discussing politics or religion at the dinner table, but that won't stop us from doing it here. Did Mohammad really exist? Did Jesus? Are Democrats or Republicans always wrong? And how do our thoughts on such things prevent us from looking at data that might otherwise change our minds? With some determination, and truth as the ultimate value, we have the tools to form a more constructive view of ourselves, and of the world in which we live.

Belief: "Jesus is the most documented historical personality ever." Fact: "He is not, and in fact there is no comparison when looking at the evidence for actual historical personalities."
eg in the medieval ages they thought the earth was flat and there were witches that should be burned.
how would "common sence" look like at that time do you think?
btw; proof(?) that 1+1=2; [Link]
As for witches, it is possible that witches existed (after all, they exist today, we just think they're harmless). That fact has no bearing on whether or not witches should be burned.
Again, it is not that difficult. I am talking about very simple, basic things here. Fact: I'm typing on a keyboard. Fact: there is a screen on which my words are appearing. Fact: my lips are closed.
So, to reiterate my point, there are VERY simple facts relating to issues like the ones we discussed on our shows. But BELIEFS block people from accepting those facts. Such thinking errors are akin to denying that I am typing on a keyboard, or that my lips are closed, etc.
as for witches, it is possible that witches existed (after all, they exist today, we just think they're harmless). that fact has no bearing on whether or not witches should be burned.hmm. so witches exist today. is that to be considered a "fact" or a "belief"?
the fact/[belief?] that "we" think they/[witches] are harmless has no bearing on whether or not witches should be burned.hmm. that is a real mess of a statement imo. but yes, witches (or any) should be burned unless they are uttermost dangerous. and yes, what "we" think should be irrelevant - but then; would not also "we" be irrelevant?
I would love to see a future talk of Jewish brainwashing, given that I am a goyem labelled as an anti-semite for insane or zero reasons. Do so and be prepared for further attacks on this site.

Most people live trying to avoid pain and gain pleasure (usually settle for comfort). This is the major driving scale of their life and that is why we see very extreme forms of denial - anything to avoid feeling any pain.
The answer is to shift to a scale of truth/ love vs lies. But it is painful to face truth (particularly personal truth); we think it is easier to continue to suppress our emotions and settle for comfort. Plus the familial and societal pressures if I change and have different views from others - I don’t want to feel the pain of that rejection etc either.
When we stay in our comfort zone there is no learning, there is no growth, and the irony is things will keep happening to trigger us emotionally, so we will keep building that fortress. It will get harder and harder.
The truth will set us free and we have to want that - it is a choice - we have to think to reason to feel. Because what if I have to change? That is going to be painful; I risk rejection from family, friends, and the world. So not many have chosen that path yet because it is not rewarded in this world, but it is the right path.
The image at the beginning reminds me of Gurdieff's admonition, if a man realizes he is in prison, the only sane direction is to get out of prison. There is also his story of the Yazidi boy trapped inside the white circle drawn by the bullies. In both cases he is talking about belief systems that keep a human trapped in his own psychology, his own faulty map of reality. In our current day of virtual reality, distinguishing truth from falsehood will become more and more difficult.
Belief systems cover a myriad of areas. The one that is not usually covered is scientific beliefs. Darwinism is a scientific theory, not a scientific fact. Global warming is a scientific theory, not a scientific fact. These theories are treated as truth in the media and some scientific circles, and have become part of the common belief system. The general population has the belief that science overall is truth, they believe it, and therefore they can be manipulated by media pronouncing the scientific "truth" about covid-19.
I think the 3 of you are in an excellent position to help people learn to question, analyze and think about subjects. However, your audience is probably already thinking. Michael Behe and Ken Pederson started from the belief that Darwinism was correct, and each through research changed their belief systems. How to make people aware of their belief systems and where they mislead?
When you talk about religion, it is easy to question beliefs about it. However if you focus on the teaching itself, it is based on being here now. For example, Uri Gellar was known for his spoon bending. My belief about him was he was a magician or circus performer. On GAIA there is a Legacy interview with him. Yes of course he could bend spoons. However, I didn't know the CIA and Stanford Research Institute studied his abilities, as they did with remote viewing. Nor did I know that oil companies hired him to find oil locations through his abilities and paid him handsomely. What does this mean? It means our belief that this is not possible is wrong. It means that the mind and heart can affect physical reality. It means reality itself is different than we believe. So miracles are simply not understood science. David
Might want to give the show another listen and consider how what's being said there applies to you.
perceiving and thinking is determined by culture...
Partly - our parents pass on their beliefs from conceptionOnly to an extent.
And to an extent, that kind of thinking is a bit of glib put around by people who don't remember their own childhoods.
I can remember being like 5, 6, 7, listening to my mother and thinking, "WTF is she on about now?", or my father "WTF is he doing that for?"
The idea of families as 'belief factories' doesn't quite pass muster, as families and extended families are made up of people who are all very different from each other. My auntie was very different from my mother and my uncle was totally different from both of them. My brother was quiet and studious. I was the loudest kid you could imagine. And that is original. Much in the same way that for some inexplicable reason, one newborn cries all the time, another never cries, another never stops eating, and so on and so forth.
You might say families are fields of influence within other fields of influence. To a large degree, in the smaller and the greater, you have a palette with which you can dip into and mix your own colours, but you are who you are from the moment you arrive, what you do with that or don't bother to do with that is pretty much your deal, and familial and cultural fields of influence are not the only areas you have access to in that regard.

Much in the same way that for some inexplicable reason, one newborn cries all the time, another never cries, another never stops eating, and so on and so forth.My theory is every set of parents birthing offspring are each their own potential to seed a new tribal ecosystem, and by Nature's design. Every set of parents are like stand-alone self-contained mini-civilisation containers, or 'creators' of a new sub-race and 'culture' by their own brood. And the more children they bear, the more variety increases within the sub-race and 'culture' newly created by them - through the greater number of offspring produced and therefor the greater the likelihood of the basic components needed for a functioning society is covered, all via the different unique personality traits of the siblings all grown up together; the builder, the doctor, the engineer, the farmer, the technician, the lumberjack etc... variety is covered, but is going to get very incestuous very quickly if they only stick within their own 'field of influence'.

Automatism (whether instinct or socially engineered) is what we're born with and grow up with and largely have to endure, although it certainly has its 'good' aspects.....
But it (automatism) is unconscious or only, at best, dully conscious. It performs by rote, constant similar maneuver. A contained environment.
Free will (individual learning/experiencing) is what we utilize (or attempt to) in order to become more conscious, which is the goal of evolution.
But these are just words and I really cannot say.
ned,

I don't contest that many people are highly influenced by what they see on TV and are subjected to subliminal messages but away from the screen people, and cats, do exercise their freewill all the time.
away from the screen people, and cats, do exercise their freewill all the time.What was it that influenced you to lose the space between 'free' and 'will'?

Wanting to deprive Hates of finance I had my computer made by a "Free Soft Ware Society" company. It just runs Ubuntu but I could have had Windows also installed had I wanted.
You can install Linux on you computer if you have room.
The truth isn't measured by the amount of consent!!
And yes, Jesus exists since He was mention in the works of pagan Roman historians, pagan Jewish historians, pagan Greek historians, etc!!! Sorry to disappoint you!!!

There are two references to Jesus called Christ in Josephus. The first is the debated and probably spurious Christian interpolation of Testimonium Flavianum (18.3.3).
The second in the no-longer disputed reference to "James the brother of Jesus, who is called Christ" (20.9.1). Almost all modern scholarship on this passage considers it to be 100% authentic and not a later insertion or edit.
Sorry mate. Fact just trumped your belief.
RC
as it is obvious that you like to jack with Christians, why don't you try to jack with me. eh? I am a Deist.
or,
are you bright enough to understand your own personification of Jesus as a pagan?
Jesus being the personification of the Sun and its journey through the seasons.
methinks thou art is in, over thy head, sir.
There are many different versions of Jesus. Many books that have interpreted the life of a man called Jesus.
Iv'e read "The Dead Sea Scrolls" and "The Secret Teachings of Jesus, the Four Gnostic Gospels"
Also "Jesus The Man" and "Jesus of The Apocalypse" by Theologian Barbara Thiering. "Jesus the Last of the Pharaohs" and "Jesus King of Edessa" by Historian Ralph Ellis. There are also many other interpretations I haven't read.
that was a mean thing to say. shame on you!LOL. That didn't sound very christian.
as it is obvious that you like to jack with Christians, why don't you try to jack with me. eh?
One of the chief motivating factors for American Christianity is a wish to keep one toe in The Old Country.
Some of it is similar in a way to modern New Age-y types who identify with paganism, wicca, and running around Stonehenge in a bunch of OMO-man duds.
A desire for a link with antiquity is not necessarily a bad thing, but frequently the results are quite comical.
I don’t believe that he is a God; there is only one God.
For instance, in previous shows you have spoke approvingly of process philosophy and the work of David Ray Griffin, yet John Cobb himself endorses a form of Marxism (eg see his foreword to "Organic Marxism" in the Amazon preview of the book with that name). So perhaps you own conceptions of the Other are also polarized and lacking in nuance.
Does your dislike of commies include, for example, Christian communists and libertarian communists?
Our dislike of commies is because of their support and promotion of a failed and unviable economic alternative to capitalism. Therefore it doesn't matter to us, or to me anyways, who promotes the idea. They're wrong and being used by people that wish to control how others think and act.
Your overstatement hurts your claim.
RC
Further, if consciousness is evolving, as Aurobindo, de Chardin, Barfield and many others have argued, I doubt that society will consist of atomized individuals competing against each other to survive forever.
jjjj I think it is pretty apparent that capitalist growth (which at a 3% annual rate would make the economy 19 times it present size in 100 years and about 7 trillion times its present size in 1000 years) cannot go on indefinitely.Exactly! A point I've made since around age 16 my conviction behind which only became stronger when I was done with economics in college.

It is the imposition of ‘new laws’ being imposed on us now that we object to.
I can envision a communistic or socialist system run by a very loving dictator; don’t know anyone on earth at present who could do the job though.
Joyly I can envision a communistic or socialist system run by a very loving dictatorThat one's what you might call 'The race track to Hell'.
Did Mohammad really exist? Did Jesus?Did anything exist once upon a time?? LOL.
Existence: I was thinking about atheism and existence the other day. It struck me that - whether atheists themselves know this of themselves or not (consciously, certainly not!) - fundamentally, because the belief of the Atheist at his core is all of Existence *popped* into existence out of Nothing (like magic) therefore his entire belief system, subconsciously at least, is structured around this notion; that all things in and of life be obtained of nothing also - thus, no efforts need nor should be spent on his part to "get back" out of life... And that any efforts which ARE put into life, against his whims - those whims beyond mere excesses of impetuous youth, or of sex-energy cups runneth over - is extra energy expended of him and he is now "owed"!... Of which, in turn he deserves himself the follow-on belief; out of this terrible imbalance formed out of his expense - Life must owe him a living!!
This by definition concludes an atheist MUST take more from Creation than which he gives back to it, be his default setting. And he must oblige this godlessness dialectic put in its motion, to remain true to his 'nature'.
It is out of this furthermore, the direct reflection of godlessness in the neo-culture of getting things from nothing, today, I see expressed in how 'progressives' think and behaves and seeks to live by, evermore... Fitting perfectly with the mindset of the Left, as extremized, has become the source of all the puerile-like tantrummy destructiveness of all things rational and all things held in law and order as required for the upward motion Creation force managing to hang on inside Western civilisation (of which the techno-satanic Covid World Order must destroy firstly before it can fully implement itself).
Godlessness (atheism) = inevitable eventual destruction of existence, let alone Belief and Truth.
My, what a wet miserable gloomy day...
You can dissect me any how you want, LindaMay.
Favour? really?
Because until you finally stop telling me you think I have "a brilliant mind" (or other to that effect) because you're finally 'up there' with me ("brilliant" mind, that is), then you can be in the position to do ME the favour for the sake of OUR mirror, to raise MY FUCKING FREQUENCY!!!
Wouldn't you want that for me?... For all of us?? Because, try as I might, I just can't do it alone, LindaMay... *sob* and, although there is many an occasion for many a SOTT commenter to be in receipt of your short sharp jibe-y easy-as-you-like two-bit quip/not-so-quip flung-dung low-frequency one-liners (which apparently are never personal hits) -- it just ain't gonna cut it with me!
(and aint gonna cut it)
Skipped the rest as a favour to myself. Just sayin', ...i m living my life.
I'm of to have an early night now... Goodnight.
p.s. I've always wished the best for you, Linda.
no sarcasm involved. Truth is a thing that is discovered. it is self evident when observed.
argueing with truth, when discovered, is folly.
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.
aww hell, I am thinking that mebbe we might get along well working in a motor room..Sure... I can be hands-on too
Your method of attack is petty, "you are so low frequency," "excellent ... I thii-ink." Ok, but we are not in a sorority.
If you want to raise your frequency, stop worrying about being offended. Also, appreciate people for who they are. Perhaps you do so.
Though YOU can first start by appreciating, first of, me and LM have a history on SOTT - as she does with pretty much errryone else here, eh? -- and this ought to be taken into big consideration before jumping in our tea-party sideways and landing upsidedown in the fruit-punch bowl!
Now, sober up your erratic vibratory frequency field and take a deep breath, then re-read CAREFULLY who said what to whom first and said in which context, and start again (or not... up to you).
It's not worth it in any case.
BC... i read... YesShe said she read the first word of your post which was "Yes", but she skipped the rest of the post "as a favour to herself".
(and aint gonna cut it)
Skipped the rest as a favour to myself.
Which was not very respectful.
p.s. I've always wished the best for you, Linda.Pity those who pity.
It's like they've been written by a cider lady, or a dog woman or something.
I mean, if Spiked! comments section gets loaded up with agents provocateurs on a daily basis, why would SOTT get a pass?
Either way, as can be seen on this thread in particular, by accident or design it doesn't take very long to derail the possibility of having sentient discussions as per "When belief trumps truth" or whatever, does it?
That's why I don't go with all that SOTTites nonsense.
For all I know, Rowan Cocoan could be a copper, LindaMay an axe-murderer, Parzival a pedophile, etc.
Which is not to say that they are, but 'handle with care' is definitely the order of the day as regards any internet communications with total strangers.
sad,
[Link]
You seem to have misread LindaMay's post.Yes, it seems you are correct.
Wishful thinking on my part, an all that...
Pity those who pity.No more! So I guess that's that then...
YOU are so full of IT and yourself (here n elsewhere) it 's been grossing me out tooIts gonna get worse, Linda.
Your problem is seeing offense where there is none. Maybe there is no personal hit in those responses to your comments?Going back through the comments again, free of 'emotion' as you infer, you might be right or are part-right. The problem is when things are discussed or attempted understanding of more higher-octane levels of thought and discussion here, and then it gets peppered with snipped one-liners (often with as many emojis) that may or may not be meant as one way or another, which then leaves it uncertain in minds here and creates a whole lot of confusion, with things getting very misunderstood very easily when it didn't have to be that way! LM has been around here forever and she STILL doesn't appreciate this. Or doesn't care... Fine. But the price tag is to accept being VERY misunderstood a lot on a regular basis. That ought to be the trade off, right?... Its a two-way conduct.
The same chaos that gets generated here has affected you btw..
Your method of attack is petty, "you are so low frequency,"I did not say that.
"excellent ... I thii-ink."And there is no attack with this. None. Yet YOU seem be have interpreted it as me taking offense here... Why is that?
If you want to raise your frequency, stop worrying about being offended.I'm not setting out to raise my frequency per se. What will be will be as far as my personal development is concerned. But being offended is one to take note of maybe... Though I don't feel offended, more like just VERY pissed off now because of the constant confusion and misunderstandings that crop up here time and time again every time a serious discussion is attempted that involves more than two short paragraphs!
There will just be more of your self-importance.Sure, why not... Its probably a VERY necessary shield to put up around to be a regular commenter here who has anything half- decent to say... Oop, sorry, was that more of my self importance there??
Also, appreciate people for who they are.It works both ways.
Anyway, you seem half-decent in retrospect, once my 'emotional projection' faded... So I half-apologize to you.
There will just be more of your self-importance.Who amongst us don't have self-importance???
Stand up Jeezus, wherever you are!!!
The way it often runs is, the more humble the facade, the more self-important the interior.
"I did not say that."
No, you implied it multiple times. Raise your fucking frequency, you said. I took that as you being facetious, as if she couldn't, or as if you were obviated from self-improvement. Maybe that was wrong of me. Narrow is the gate, you said. I suppose now that you were imploring her to be better, but I am not familiar with you. Who's to say you're on a higher level? If you are more intelligent, than me, than her, than SOTT, whatever, then shouldn't you behave as much?
"YOU seem be have interpreted it as me taking offense here... Why is that?"
I did not realize you misinterpreted her. I did too, in a different way. If you want the answer, your third comment seemed particularly hurtful, and I don't know how anyone would handle something like that. That is what I read into her response, and all that I understood from her comment. Your best wishes comment did not acknowledge this. Perhaps this set me off. Now I see that comment not as blindness but more like relief on your part.
"Oop, sorry, was that more of my self importance there??"
I do not know. Is it meant as an insult? Well, insulting everyone is different from insulting one person. The former feels better, and we can pretend we're above all of them.
"It works both ways."
I don't care about my advice. Let's just all be on our best behavior.
"So I half-apologize to you."
Half-forgotten.
LM has been of help in the past, I've found her comments calmed me in particular at times, two or three times at least.Same.
I like that she welcomes all newbies with open arms and helps them get settled in on SOTT. She gives everyone half-a-chance at first introduction... even the douchebags. She was the first ever to initiate contact with me actually, making me feel ever so welcome. That will always count for something in my world.
At first kinda like a big sister, an almost motherly quality in a funny sort of way. She makes sure there is plenty fun to be had, and she'll cheer up all the newfound little siblings when they're feeling glum. Which is sweet actually. But when we start to come into our own and find a more-solid grounding, she can't bear the idea of everyone growing up and the thought of leaving her behind! And she attempts to pull everyone back to before. Not in a mindful mean way, more an automation. I know it has little to do with those here having gained greater intelligence because she does appreciate intellect for the most part (as long as its not too mechanical thinking) so I can only assume its "soul growth" related that's the problem. I'm certain she can do it too but she doesn't want to... Because in fact, she hates it! And hates to see it attempted of others. I think its because she sees it as the root cause behind the 'sentience of evil' in our world, and all the evils of arrogance caused by man... So better try and stop themselves to become devils! And therein lies the tragedy (and it is a tragedy).
But maybe I'm wrong... Or wrong to be harsh?
I found your initial request of her foolish, and from there could not understand you without inferring bitterness or priggishness.You mean "Explain"? If so, appreciate the fact at the time, rightly or wrongly, I thought she was basically calling me "DISGUSTING".
No, you implied it multiple times. Raise your fucking frequency, you said. I took that as you being facetious, as if she couldn't, or as if you were obviated from self-improvement. Maybe that was wrong of me. Narrow is the gate, you said. I suppose now that you were imploring her to be better,That last part in bold.
but I am not familiar with you. Who's to say you're on a higher level? If you are more intelligent, than me, than her, than SOTT, whatever, then shouldn't you behave as much?Its not about me thinking myself on a 'higher' level. I don't think quite in those terms. Any self-importance I might perceivably have probably comes from something else: General self-assurance through muddled life experience, and force of will, combined (tho I haven't examined myself that deeply to be sure on that). So no, not really about that, but more about seeing those *choosing* not to raise THEMSELVES up 'higher' when I'm certain they can. And just to reiterate; its not so much about strict intelligence, but more-so of "soul growth".
And just so you know; I judge (and yes, we all must judge) those who have come FURTHEST from their starting-point or origins, NOT how far ahead they perceivably are gotten in self-development compared to any others further down the line at a given measure.
I did not realize you misinterpreted her. I did too, in a different way. If you want the answer, your third comment seemed particularly hurtful, and I don't know how anyone would handle something like that. That is what I read into her response, and all that I understood from her comment. Your best wishes comment did not acknowledge this. Perhaps this set me off. Now I see that comment not as blindness but more like relief on your part."Yeah, pretty much.
I do not know. Is it meant as an insult? Well, insulting everyone is different from insulting one person. The former feels better , and we can pretend we're above all of them.The former. Feeling better? (no insult directed to you)
I don't care about my advice.Well, please do because its actually quite good advice.
Let's just all be on our best behavior.I can't guarantee that if the mood takes me, but I will try.
Half-forgotten.Perish the thought! LOL.

While police and government will use this massive cocaine bust to crack down on the public and make tougher laws, in reality, what it highlights is the failure of the war on drugs. When cops — the ones who claim to be fighting the war on drugs — are caught with the largest amount of cocaine in BVI’s history, it’s time to admit that the war on drugs is not working.The article references an "Unexplained Wealth Act". IF we had a libertarian society, there would be no need for such as there'd be no malum prohibitum crimes to get rich on.

My last husband and I owned a Real Estate company with 20 Realtors and 960 rentals, so we had lots of stories. The most common was a realtor being approached sexually by the seller or tennant. Never happened to me though.
People always change their minds.
Thinking about this and that is a total waste of time for You and others.
Perhaps being nuts is just part of our active homeostasis.
While it would certainly be consistent with Devo’s methods to include a knowing double entendre, they are adamantly ambivalent about the common misunderstanding, which both goosed the song’s popularity and made it ever more clear that the masses would never quite get what the band were trying to do. “We wrote it as a ‘you can do it, Dale Carnegie’ pep talk for President Carter,” says Mark. “We were afraid that Republicans were going to get in there [in 1980], and they sounded very nasty at the time. They were running this guy, Ronald Reagan, that seemed like a total—he seemed like he didn’t even have a brain. We were like, ‘How could that be our president? That’s impossible, that they choose him to run for president.’ So we were writing this music that was like, ‘ You can do it, Mr. President .’

Hmmm Cosmic gene therapy? Had a dream about that some time ago, well just the cosmic ray stuff, had mixed feeling about it and it seemed real.Dunno. Just musing really. Thought it might relate to that stuff in the sessions about 'hyperkinetic sensate', 'they will "rise up with wings as eagles", etc.
It's a converse way of looking at the running down of the commercial aviation industry, lockdowns, masks, etc.
In the same way that if you do the opposite of what you're being told to do by whatever PTB, very often you'll come across completely different realisations as to why you're being issued those directives in the first place. The smoking ban is a good example.
I had quite a vivid dream about cosmic rays only last week. Cosmic rays and groaning cathedrals. Bizarre it was.

I´d like to return to belief and decision making and opinion. Do we agree that all governmental power is based on opinion (following David Hume)? If so, opinion will lead to belief and belief will decide against all facts? Is that true? I do not see p.e., that the missing weapons of mass destruction in Iraq did any damage to (public opinion about) politics. Bush made a joke out of it, and that was that.
Same now with Corona. We see so many facts regarding the PCR-Test or the infections and deaths, that could well be made up to a logic chain of proving a hoax. but facts are totally meaningless. the public won´t listen. I see protests, nearly every day, shouting freedom and democracy, but the media (as do the politicians) call them nazis, and so does the public. in a most aggressive way! some even demanding the shooting of all critics. a government advisor in Austria demanded: "no beds on intensive care for critics!"
I read a book some time ago, called The Cult" that treated the months or even years of work necessary to clear a brainwashed mind. so hard to convince someone that he isn´t right.
So now, what can we do? how can we change the positive opinion towards politicians and media? also here, facts don´t help. we have a lot of facts proving, they are corrupt, arrogant egomaniacs. still, public loves them, maybe it makes them feel participating from their power, being on their side. like being a fan of a successful football club, being on the side that wins... maybe somene has an idea.
1) Hello & welcome.
2) It's not so much opinion that is running things, but the false (and programmed) beliefs that are running things.
3) Cogito, ergo sum is a Latin philosophical statement made by Descartes, usually translated into English as "I think, therefore I am". There are many links on that - here's one: [Link] (To which I add, never stop seeking truth, and as you perceive it. There has never been a time in history where more people have access to the truth and yet a majority are avoiding their responsibilities to learn truth and share it.)
4) The more one learns, the more one realizes how relatively little they know - but such is a hunger for knowledge and your awareness and acknowledgment of that is why you're here. (WAY better than 99% olf folks - you're fine. - And I'm a pessimist.)

We can only really change ourselves. The more we live in truth the more positive influence we will be. Others won’t change because of what we say; they might be inspired to change because of how we show up. All that matters is that I take responsibility for my own education and search for truth and commit to live that truth no matter what.
It seems to me that the above type of people are those who lack any real personality, originality, they have always been followers, even since childhood, they followed a leader without thoughts of their own. Perhaps they really don't know how to think for them selves and are thus very immature. It's sad that they are so numerous.

The games of children are a momentous preoccupation.I think children in their "innocence" are much closer to 'the source' where reality can still be influenced by imagination. But the budding of sexuality disrupts this otherwise budding power of spirit and sense of natural spirituality which can influence reality. And in the transference through puberty, of spiritual development instead gets thwarted and 'blocked' under the destructive dogmas and social conditioning programmes surrounding sex which plagues every society, whether it be religious or worldly, heavily corrupted before it gets locked up inside of us as unrealized and now-perverted potential, and to live on in us as either unstable or repressed kundalini force.
Only the grown-ups playGrown-ups play/behave/act like "children" when it comes to sex.
Thats my take on it.
grownups act like children whenever they don’t get their own way .That's because the sexual-energy core of their Being hasn't first been unblocked properly or properly cleansed. Once it is unblocked/cleansed then everything else should fall in line and all the other chakras automatically 'clicks' into place and in their rightful order.
All grown ups including me - I confessYes. ALL of us.
I think he was reasonable on election night whilst telling the truth as he saw it. (And he was right) He has seemed restrained and under pressure in press briefings since then. I think his hair has actually changed colour to quite grey as some one else commented.
I know no-one is perfect, but when someone likes to play golf I immediately think something about them is never to be 100% trusted.
Other than that I think Trump is GREAT
I guess some people need a little contrast in their lives.
Do you trust Iggy Pop 100%...??
A) Iggy Pop has never stood for election.
B) I've never been in a position where I've had to trust Iggy Pop 100% for anything.
C) You can probably fill in the blanks all the way to Z with that one by yourself.
I don't know anything about golf. Never watched it or played it.
I've played crazy golf, but I wouldn't give that any more significance than it deserves.
B) I've never been in a position where I've had to trust Iggy Pop 100% for anything.RC
No. I don't trust anyone 100%. Do you?No, not even my closest family members, and I love them dearly.
B) I've never been in a position where I've had to trust Iggy Pop 100% for anything.Well, even if I were to find myself in a position to have to trust Iggy Pop for anything, I still wouldn't trust him - not even 50%.
But Iggy Pop is irrelevant as you know. Trump, however, is a leader (at least representative) of a powerful nation so the stakes for "trust" is huge because a leader of a nation has to be of the highest integrity as humanly possible for those most difficult situations he will find himself in. Of course no human-being is expected to be literally 100% trustworthy... I was being figurative. But his integrity at least, must be near -on 100%... I'd say at least 95%. Playing golf takes it under that threshold for me.
However... Due to his 'The Art of the Deal' days from when the most successful business dealings are done on the golf-course and therefor 'old habits die hard', then I am willing to overlook this blemish on his character left over from those days.
I don't know anything about golf. Never watched it or played it.Yes, its quite obvious to me.
And of course you're allowed to play crazy golf - which isn't the same thing - for the sake of appeasing colleagues after work or a happy family day out, every now an then...
... part. (the rest of the post i did/do not want to comment on).Yeah, I thought as much..
What was/is it about the main part you didn't/don't want to comment on?
But Iggy Pop is irrelevant as you know.The whole thread has veered so far off the highway and into the wildwood, what's the diff?
Here's the latest MindMatters out as I'm sure you're aware:
MindMatters: Navigating The Chaos
As current events and crazy people continue to spiral downhill with ever greater frequency and intensity, we find ourselves challenged not to react or respond in ways that are detrimental to...It clocks-off the last word, paraphrasing: "Self-importance [...] wrecks everything..." And I instantly thought:
Stand up Jeezus, wherever you are!!!Prolly an idea to start afresh there - but with "Jeezus" in mind(?)
The fact is, you haven't thought this thing through and you don't know what you're talking about.
The fact is, you haven't thought this thing through and you don't know what you're talking about.But it doesn't matter to me that much right now, thinking things through and knowing what I'm talking about isn't at the top of my list.
But it doesn't matter to me that much right now, thinking things through and knowing what I'm talking about isn't at the top of my list.Oh really? What is, then? Deciding whether you trust Iggy Pop 100%, less than 50%, or 36.5% or whatever?
Dark around these parts, huh?
What is, then?You mean you don't know?? You - of all people!
I must come to better KNOW thine Self, HFL, starting with my 'lower centres'. Because they're clogged up! So the top of the list for me right now is to "see" where it is I'm led 'instinctively' first and foremost, and to 'feel' where my mind is pulled or pushed in what direction that way or this, and see what my triggers are and to see where my emotions arise from and whether to 'let the chips fall where they may' (as Elan would put it)... All from how my interactions with others here are going... Where will the next HFL-interaction thread take me to!! . .(Lolz!)... and then the why.
For, the thinking things through part is kinda secondary for me at the moment, though of course its a very significant secondary, less than a half-notch down - as THINKING is very important, obviously, and I appreciate you getting me to THINK and will certainly continue to try to oblige you on that wherever I can. But the 'knowing what I'm talking about' part is very much tertiary... I couldn't care too much with that one at the moment, it can take a back seat for now. Though I'm sure it will come to the fore in due course (I certainly hope so, because I'd like to know what I'm talking about too).
You could say; I'm carrying out my personalised bastardised version of that system known amongst you Gurdjieffians as 'Self-Remembering'. Naturally, because I'm doing so on my own, it is gonna be a bit haphazard and chaotic, like things can be on the SOTT comments sections, which kinda suits me, because I simply can't follow tried and tested systems of past masters, unless, perhaps, I fork out a tonne of money along with a tonne of free time I never will have neither of (ok, maybe time due to Covid Laws, but defo not money!). So, I've learned to do things my more-difficult way until other journeymen/women come along on-line or IRL and kindly or harshly corrects those certain things wrong in me as and when they (the journeymen/women AND the things wrong with me) pop up.
I have FAITH. So thats gotta count for summint in my favour!
Anyways, you're the one who shook up the snow-globe of this particular sub-thread here between me and you, when it would otherwise have duly ended with my last response to cracker. You made the Iggy Pop mountain out of my Trump mole-hill. Which I don't mind, and I think I did get your point after a second look, about minds being lost causes here on SOTT when derailing or 'forum sliding' just as with people IRL, was it? - and muddled into it 'people's lives needing balancing contrasts' and wot-not. Because you take issue with veering threads off track just like everyone veering into chaos outdoors in your street, BUT unfortunately, that particular snow-globe shake-up of yours wasn't a good example for me because I probably know less about Iggy Pop than you do about golf!... And I was left wondering... Ugh?? Unless, that was part of your point about 'forum sliding' and the chaotic minds of people all around and everywhere out there and in here and how its all hypocritical reflections of everyone here espousing to each other etc? If so, good one
If not. Please kindly clarify it so I'm not left with the same issues of uncertainty and befuddlement as you definitely take with LindaMay.
To note: I too share much of your annoyance with there being a lot of 'forum sliding' as HVACTech coins it, that's been going on around here. But that's something to raise with Joe or Niall - or whomever is steering the SOTT helm these days. In the meantime, from my end, for the most part I'll continue to go along with whatever the thread-flows draws me away no matter how far from the original subject of its respective article, for the reasons I've now explained above until I want to call it a day on a given thread... or if YOU want to call it a day from your end when you think I'm guilty of too much forum sliding meself, I will of course respect your wishes... Tho I hope that when I forum slide its at least interesting?
Dark around these parts, huh?And its getting just a little bit brighter for me as each day passes! But when I crash and burn, as I always do (s'all good tho, its all part of my journey, its how this here nigga dun rollz)... I will 8 times pick myself up after 7 times my falling, click clack the knuckles and jump back to it to continue on as I left off!
My brain is tired. I won't be responding to any response until at least midday tomorrow.

For a week or a month or a year
With the blood in the ink of the headlines
And the sound of the crowd in my ear
You might ask what it takes to remember
When you know that you've seen it before
Where a government lies to a people
And a country is drifting to war
And there's a shadow on the faces
Of the men who send the guns
To the wars that are fought in places
Where their business interest runs
On the radio talk shows and the T.V.
You hear one thing again and again
How the U.S.A. stands for freedom
And we come to the aid of a friend
But who are the ones that we call our friends
These governments killing their own?
Or the people who finally can't take any more
And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
There are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire
There's a shadow on the faces*
Of the men who fan the flames
Of the wars that are fought in places
Where we can't even say the names
They sell us the President the same way
They sell us our clothes and our cars
They sell us every thing from youth to religion
The same time they sell us our wars
I want to know who the men in the sha dows are
I want to hear somebody asking them why
They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
But they're never the ones to fight or to die
And there are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire

The Bush Drug Sting, The Sins of the Father, The Sins of the Son and -- The Smoking Airplane[Link]
Why Does George W. Bush Fly in Drug Smuggler Barry Seal's* Airplane?
by
Daniel Hopsicker and Michael C. Ruppert**
It has all the makings of a major box office thriller: Texas Governor and Republican Presidential contender George W. Bush and his brother Jeb, allegedly caught on videotape in 1985 picking up kilos of cocaine at a Florida airport in a DEA sting set up by Barry Seal???
An ensuing murderous cover-up featuring Seal's public assassination less than a year later by a hit team???the members of which, when caught, reveal to their attorneys during trial that their actions were being directed by then, National Security Council (NSC) staffer - Lt. Colonel Oliver North???
And a private turboprop King Air 200 supposedly caught on tape in the sting with FAA ownership records leading directly to the CIA and some of the perpetrators of the most notorious (and never punished) major financial frauds of the '80s. ???Greek shippers paying bribes to obtain loans from American companies that would never be repaid.???An American executive snatching the charred remains of a $10,000 payoff check from an ashtray in an Athens restaurant???Swiss police finding bank accounts used for kickbacks and bribes???
Add to this mix the now irrefutable proof, some of it from the CIA itself, that then Vice President George H.W. Bush was a decision maker in illegal Contra support operations connected to the "unusual" acquisition of aircraft and that his staff participated in key financial, operational and political decisions???
All these events lead inexorably to one unanswered question: How did this one plane go from being controlled by Barry Seal, the biggest drug smuggler in American history, to becoming, according to state officials, a favored airplane of Texas Governor George W. Bush?
-----------------------------------
Three months into an exhaustive investigation of persistent reports dating to 1995 that there exists an incriminating videotape of current Republican Presidential front-runner Bush caught in a hastily-aborted DEA cocaine sting, the central allegation remains unproven???
But some startling details have been confirmed, amid a raft of new suspicions emerging from conflicting FAA records. Those records, along with other irrefutable documents, point to the existence of far more than mere happenstance or dark "conspiracy theorist speculations" in the matter of how George W. Bush came to be flying the friendly Texas skies in an airplane that was a crown jewel in the drug smuggling fleet of the notorious Barry Seal. Those documents reveal - beyond any doubt - that in the 1980s Barry Seal, with whom the CIA has consistently denied any relationship, piloted and controlled airplanes owned by the same Phoenix Arizona company, Greycas, which in a 1998 bankruptcy filing, was revealed to have been a subsidiary of the same company that owned the now defunct CIA proprietary airline Southern Air Transport.
The investigation started with a lead into the history of the aircraft (a 1982 Beechcraft King Air 200 with FAA registration number N6308F - Serial Number BB-1014). The handwritten tail number was found in records kept by Seal's widow and later linked to other "hard paper" records left by Seal after his 1986 assassination by "drug traffickers" who were subsequently connected to Oliver North. Those records, including leasing agreements, insurance policies and maintenance records, exhibit a deliberately-confusing "paper trail" of convoluted ownership recalling the 'glory' days of the Iran Contra hearings, where the machinations of American covert intelligence operators were unmasked before a disbelieving public.
Combined with revelations in a 1998 CIA Inspector General's report of Contra-era cocaine trafficking in which the CIA admits to "briefing" then Vice President Bush on how it lied to Congress about cocaine trafficking by its agents, it becomes clear that father and son have common secrets to conceal from the American public. That report, Volume II of the CIA Inspector General's report into allegations of Contra cocaine trafficking can be viewed at (INFRA) A detailed discussion of that report, along with relevant excerpts is available at www.copvcia.com.
Unraveling the plane's tangled and colorful history requires, first, a brief look backwards at the momentous year of 1982, when President Reagan first introduced the public version of "Project Democracy," in which he called for a "crusade for freedom."

Germany: Scientist Skeptical of Coronavirus Hoax is Raided and Arrested During Livestream.[Link]
I’ve not been able to find a single piece of news about this arrest, other than people reporting on the video itself. At the time of writing it is fresh news, but the German media may simply decide not to report on it, and the cops may decide not to comment on it, leaving room open for people to imagine that it may have been a hoax. However: if it is a hoax, you can be certain that the media will tell you it’s a hoax. The fact that there isn’t already media about this, given that the clip has gone viral on the English language internet, is another one of those “the mystery of the dog that didn’t bark” situations. The video certainly looks legitimate. The officer’s uniform would be quite a thing to fake. Faking something like this would also presumably be illegal in Germany. I think this is where Europe is at: if you question this lockdown, they will kick in your door, throw you to the ground and handcuff you. Frankly, if Joe Biden manages to seize power in America, you’re going to be looking at the same thing here. A member of Biden’s fake transition team has called for “hate speech” laws that are even more extreme than those that Europe and Canada have.
RC
“The reasons for the police raid and arrest … have not yet been officially revealed. However, there are rumors [unconfirmed reports] that Dr. Andreas Noack provided medical assistance to hundreds of protestors during lockdown protests against the German government.” Reportedly, Dr. Andreas Noack was under investigation for “being non-compliant with the COVID-19 lockdown laws enacted by the German government.”The ‘Infection Protection Law’ has drawn a lot of flak and has been compared by some to the Nazi era Enabling Act. Like the law that was passed in 1933, the recently passed law also confers certain legislative powers to the government, which hitherto rested only with the Legislature, that is, the Parliament. The Infection Protection Law provides the government with a legal basis to restrict the fundamental rights guaranteed by the German Constitution.
On the 23rd of March 1933, the Enabling Act was passed by the Reichstag 441 votes to 94. This Act gave Hitler the right to make laws without the Reichstag’s approval for the next four years

The Planetary Regime might be given responsibility for determining the optimum population for the world and for each region and for arbitrating various countries' shares within their regional limits. Control of population size might remain the responsibility of each government, but the Regime would have some power to enforce agreed limitsWki Snippets
John Paul Holdren is an American scientist who served as the senior advisor to President Barack Obama on science and technology issues through his roles as Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and Co-Chair of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST)
He testified to the nomination committee that he does not believe that government should have a role in determining optimal population size and that he never endorsed forced sterilization.
In a 1969 article, Holdren argued, "if the population control measures are not initiated immediately, and effectively, all the technology man can bring to bear will not fend off the misery to come." In 1973, Holdren encouraged a decline in fertility to well below replacement in the United States, because "210 million now is too many and 280 million in 2040 is likely to be much too many."
"210 million now is too many and 280 million in 2040 is likely to be much too many."I simply and thoroughly disagree with the compulsory / deceptive approach taken by governments.

Ever wonder why our ocean floors are the youngest sections of Earth surface
I once listened to a series of lectures on recent discoveries of the ocean floors by some university professor. (English I think). Extraordinary.
At first blush, the Expanding Earth Hypothesis or “Expando-Earth,” as Clif High calls it, does seem pretty wacky but it can be argued to make more sense than Plate Tectonics which, let’s face it is pretty damned crazy, with its wild and woolly subduction zones
Mainstream geologists do agree that rocks as old as 4 billion years are found on land yet nothing older than 200 million years is ever found when taking core samples of the bedrock beneath the sea[Link]
“Why does the scientific community desperately cling to and promote the idea that the ocean bottom is sliding under the continents and into a magma which is twice as dense as solid granite, a totally unsupportable and scientifically unsound idea [subduction]? Because they’d have to observe and admit that the Earth is growing and that…is a very big deal. That would change everything in science, from the smallest particle to the whole universe – 100 years of scientific theory, out the window. That’s a lot to give up .”
We should not expect it to be any different today
