There is no such thing as "human" in biology unless you specify a gnetic distance which classifies arbitrarily selected genotypes from planet Earth as "human" and "non-human".

It appears to me that people on this forum who manically present their views/beliefs/ideas as uniquely tied to some kind of divine/profound truth, often seem to use this forum to go even deeper into whatever madness/delusion they feel driven/possessed by. Perhaps if they were courageous and creative enough to function like productive human beings in the world and in their communities, and to explore a broader range of awareness and potential than the little nits they love to focus on and possess, they might not fester away here as hateful, lazy, dishonest, and/or delusional cowards claiming that such bullshit is their supposed proof of association with truth/god.
Re: The character posing as AGE makes a claim … but is it FACT?
That’s a very mean and unfair assessment of why people on this forum think the way they do and why they are here. But that’s only typical response from someone like you. Your assessment of people’s mental state is part of the evil that in this world. You have no idea what you are talking about. Walk a mile in other peoples shoes before you make such ridiculous comments about the way they choose to perceive their reality …people have got lives outside this forum, and just because it seems they are here constantly does not mean they have no other life..that’s just spiteful to think like that. Most people who post here have or are still having very productive lives outside of the forum, you have very strange beliefs about people’s motives for being on this forum. You are an ignoramous.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 6:09 pmYes, it does!

Re: The character posing as AGE makes a claim … but is it FACT?
I don't think it's just a matter of thinking differently. Most of us here think differently. There are other characteristics that can reveal if someone has gone over the edge and/or is fucking nuts, and that seems valid to point out. No offense, truly, but I've honestly been wondering if you were off some meds or over-the-edge lately?Dontaskme to Terrapin" wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 7:49 am Lets just stick someone in an institution for mental issues because they choose to think differently to us.fucking evil.

I think you are wrong in your assessment of the human condition, that’s all, but you are entitled to make it, but I do not agree with it.

You definitely seem to have different tangents you vigorously go on. Your "I hate life, so let's all hurry up and die" rants seem rather extreme. Seriously, is that the best you can do with this brief/temporary life experience?
Listen you don’t know me and I don’t know you…you don’t know the people on this forum and neither do I so it’s futile and pointless to make judgments about them.
Let people be…if people want to be manic it’s really no one else’s business…it really isn’t…condemning them to the nut job mentality is not helping anyone.
Re: The character posing as AGE makes a claim … but is it FACT?
Agreed... throughout his years on these forums, Age/Ken has only supported his claims with more claims, and/or lies and avoidance. It's ridiculous and obvious, and only worthwhile for examining and toying with the depths and characteristics of human need for, and attachment to, delusion.Atla to Age wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 10:15 am Unless you can prove otherwise, so far you haven't provided proof for any of your claims, ie. you're a liar and everyone knows it by now.

Sometimes it feels like when we are not being heard, when we are bombarded with opposition..it feels like we are going insane.
It’s not fair to judge people ..but we all do it so as to save our sanity and avoid the burn that feels like the insanity of opposition…we can only understand how we are, and never how other people are.
We only hurt ourselves when we argue with harsh judgments, never other people, because they have nothing to do with the the feelings of others, they can only relate to them if they recognise them.
be clear about that…we are all just trying to live here best we can, and get to know ourselves with the only knowledge we have available, the knowledge we ourselves have made up…No one has been alive before, so we’re all just fumbling along in the same situation trying to do the best we can, and to live out this strange existence we didn’t choose to be in.
It’s ok to manic sometimes, we need to just allow people to be, and express themselves how they want to, because people cannot be any different than how they are…they can only be who they are, and that should be enough…

I was saying what I see in some human behaviors. Doesn't seem unreasonable.
Haven't you done so in regard to Age and others?
So, we're not supposed to speak about what we see in regard to other people? Really? What if they're being too fucking nuts to realize it for themselves -- what's the best way to help them? Ignore them? Or tell them they seem "off", based on these other experiences we've had with them? What do you do with people you think are being crazy?

We’re all guilty of doing the things we accuse others of doing…don’t get all hissy now, just accept the way people are, and know anything you say will not change them.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 7:09 pmReally?

What the hell is wrong with you, I thought you said you know how the mind and brain works, if that is true you would not have to keep asking for clarification in the questions you pose to others, you are so weird.
