Absolutely, I have been advocating for the US to pacify ourselves for decades. Is there any other "news" you have for me?

I AM CERTAINLY IN NO RUSH.

And, i am CERTAINLY NOT WAITING FOR my intended audience. I am JUST WRITING WORDS, HERE-NOW, and 'they' WILL JUST COME WHEN 'they' DO.

Also, if i am here or NOT when 'that happens' is of absolutely NO REAL interest to me, anyway.

Well, Atla you look at it sympathetically. You have the patience of Job (as some say), I'm not particularly keen on Age's posts or think they're going to solve anything either but I'll leave Age to his beliefs. I've already had one psychosis centering around doomsday from reading Age's posts, "back in the days this was written". I'm sure it will not be the last, I just hope those psychoses bear no truth or relevance to the future.
Nah, my very mild interest is merely psychological in nature.

That part I haven't paid attention to, if that's what s/he's saying. I mostly notice Age constantly posting that "you [us] adult human beings" are causing all the world's problems.
'human beings' do usually ONLY NOTICE and SEE what 'it' IS that 'they' WANT TO SEE, and NOTICE, and especially 'the older' ones, in the days when this is being written.
Whatever, Age. If you're writing for posterity, Age, then I have no idea why.
See how just about ALL CURIOSITY had VANISHED FROM 'these older ones', BACK THEN, as 'IT' was for lack of a better word 'SUCKED' OUT OF 'them', through VERY SAD and VERY UNFORTUNATE ABUSIVE childhoods.

WHY is 'it' so-called 'complete bullshit' "atla"?

Would FINDING OUT what EVERY one AGREES WITH and ACCEPTS, and thus JUST COMING-TOGETHER, IN AGREEMENT ABOUT what IS ACTUALLY Right and Wrong, IN Life, and WORKING TOGETHER, IN sync, ALWAYS CONTINUAL HELPING and ENCOURAGING "each other" and EVERY one to DO BETTER, and to JUST DO THAT, REALLY, TO 'you', NOT MAKE A MUCH BETTER 'world' THAN 'the one' that is being LIVED IN 'now', when this is currently being written?

If JUST DOING THIS would NOT HELP IN MAKING A BETTER 'world', then WHAT WOULD "atla"?

Oh, and by the way, WHY, EXACTLY, do 'you', "atla", BELIEVE, ABSOLUTELY, that 'I', out of EVERY one, BELIEVE that 'you', human beings, do NOT even EXIST?

I WONDER WHY A PART of 'your' IMAGINED 'theory' here IS one of the OLDEST ones in the so-called 'book'?

WHY do 'you' IMAGINE 'it' IS or COULD BE one of the OLDEST ones?

Could it be BECAUSE there IS ACTUAL Truth IN 'it', or maybe BECAUSE there ARE Falsehoods and False CLAIMS IN 'it'?

By the way, there is FAR MORE TO 'it'. That is; IF ANY one IS Truly INTERESTED.

ONCE AGAIN, the AMOUNT OF BLINDNESS and DEAFNESS that PREVAILED IN the days when this was being written would 'NOT BE believed', as 'a saying' went, by back in those days, if it was NOT HERE in CLEARLY PRINTED WORDS FOR all to LOOK AT, and SEE.

No matter how MANY TIMES I would SAY and WRITE, 'I have NO beliefs', there would always be one who would eventually come along and SAY some 'thing' similar to; 'I will leave "age" with 'its' BELIEFS'.

They just could NOT BE SHAKEN FROM 'their' HABITUAL WAY of SPEAKING and USING WORDS. No matter how Wrong OR False 'those words' WERE or 'that way' of SPEAKING WAS, EXACTLY.

What if there's not a single person in the world, now or in the future, who will ever understand the stuff you're saying in the way you've been saying it? What if your intended audience doesn't exist? How would you ever find out?

And if you did find out, how would you change?

Why are you asking me about the country "with the most"? If I said that EVERYONE needs to just stop, doesn't EVERYONE, necessarily include the one with most as well? Is there a need for me to repeat myself or explain how EVERYONE includes the one doing it most?

He just wants to be famous as the one everyone will listen to when his audience arrives. He wants to demonstrate how misguided and stupid the rest of us are (or were "back in the days this was written") when compared to him. "Great" thinkers and writers have been doing that for centuries so he wants to do it too. Good for him. I'd rather address people in the here and now while there is still a here and now. As far as I can tell we're on the verge of environmental and political disaster. Maybe I'm wrong. Seems to me the time to act is now and the people we need to speak to are the ones living now.

I think he is his own audience, since many people on this forum ignore him.

Yes, his 'revelations' are more focused on glorifying his 'knowing' above others. This might be because he has deep insecurities which cause him to go to such an opposite extreme. I noticed a few years ago that he really doesn't understand people, so he superimposes his distortions and misunderstandings... which makes communication with him tiresome, if not almost impossible. He used to say he wanted to learn how to communicate better, but then he simply began mimicking people and things that were said. And he adopted the habit of incessantly asking questions about every word or phrase that people used, and trying to throw it back at them as if that was somehow significant or insightful.

Somewhere along the way, he began speaking as if he was in a different time than other humans... seeing and knowing more than they do. Perhaps that was a more interesting persona to adopt than gracefully accepting his disabilities. Just another god-wannabe troll on the forum, seeking whatever attention it can get... even if the attention is negative. It's not clever... it's sad. There are other places that would surely be so much more hospitable and receptive to him... but perhaps disturbed people feel compelled to continue subjecting themselves to that which feeds their disturbance.

I don't know much about him other than he seems intelligent to me. For some strange reason, I always get the image of him as some genius AI programmer or someone in the industry who is just toying with us. I know it's an assumption but he never says much about himself so I'm left to wonder. I've asked him if he's an adult or not and he hasn't answered yet. My hunch is that he isn't answering because he's one of us (an adult), except, unlike us, he thinks he's the second coming or something.

I think most humans are intelligent in varying ways. That doesn't prevent them from doing and believing some crazy shit. 8)

What am I doing that is "misbehaving" and "wrong"?
BLAMING "others", NOT ACCEPTING and NOT TAKING ACTUAL RESPONSIBILITY, ASSUMING and BELIEVING 'things' ARE true WHEN 'they' ARE NOT, WANTING MORE 'money', BEING 'selfish', CAUSING and CREATING MORE pollution, just NOT being Truly Honest, and thus Truly OPEN, here, 'TRYING TO' minimize and justify 'your' Wrong behaviors, and by NOT seriously Wanting to CHANGE, for the BETTER, FOR "other's" sake, 'you' ARE TEACHING "others" TO DO the EXACT SAME Wrong behaviors.

For starters.
