I use the word 'behaviours', instead of the 'actions' word. The reason for this will come about later on as 'we' progress, here. But, 'Yes', to achieve or create goals certain behaviours are necessary.



Okay.


If 'this' is just what you were MEANING, previously, then WHY did you NOT just ASK 'this clarifying question', BEFORE?

Now, BY SHOWING and REVEALING the 'HOW TO' of HOW the Truly peaceful world, for EVERY one CAN BE and WILL BE ACHIEVED, and CREATED, is HOW I plan on achieving 'the goal', here.

See, you human beings can NOT CREATE and ACHIEVE some thing UNTIL you have LEARNED and/or OBTAINED 'the Knowledge' of HOW to ACHIEVE or CREATE 'that thing'. So, you all JUST NEED to LEARN and/or OBTAIN 'the Knowledge' and/or 'the KNOW HOW', FIRST.




BY, and THROUGH, TEACHING and LEARNING.

Which is the EXACT SAME WAY that EVERY thing that you human beings HAVE CREATED, WAS ACHIEVED.


BY JUST SHOWING HOW ACHIEVING 'It' IS DONE, EXACTLY.

OH, and by the way, ACHIEVING 'world peace' IS, ACTUALLY, FAR, FAR SIMPLER and EASIER than you people in the days when this is being written could have even possibly imagined.


EVERY one.

Otherwise, OBVIOUSLY, it would NOT BE A 'peaceful world'

Who or what is a "one"?

EVERY thing, EVERY one of EVERY 'thing', or EVERY SINGLE 'thing' of ALL things.

And, when EVERY thing, or EVERY one, comes together, as One, then that 'Thing', or that One, is 'Everyone' or 'Everything'

To me, the words;
'one' refers to A 'part' of the ALL or WHOLE.
'One' refers to ALL or the WHOLE, together.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 11:12 pm If something or someone isn't a "one", then does that mean you will not try to make a peaceful world for them?

Is starting a sentence with, 'If someone is NOT a one', really a logical way to begin a sentence? (But, in asking that it is GREAT TO SEE you pondering and wondering MORE, here.)

The VERY REASON WHY I WRITE the word 'every' capitalised IS TO EMPHASIZE the Fact that I AM referring to ABSOLUTELY ALL, and, literally, EVERY one.

So, WHEN I say or write 'A peaceful world for EVERY one', then that MEANS there is NOT a 'single one' that is 'left out'.


Now, I AM AWARE that at times, and even some times 'most times', you posters, here, say and use words like 'all' and 'every' when you do NOT ACTUALLY MEAN ALL nor EVERY at all. Which, AGAIN, IS WHY I HAVE CHOSEN TO EMPHASIZE SOME words in capital letters, so that they 'stick out MORE' and ARE HIGHLIGHTED TO EMPHASIZE the Fact that 'those words' ARE what I AM ACTUALLY MEANING, and by which I WILL USE to SHOW that I HAVE BEEN SAYING and CLAIMING 'this', whatever 'it' is], ALL ALONG, as I c CAN SHOW, and which HAD EVEN BEEN HIGHLIGHTING IN capital letters AGAIN, ALL ALONG, WHEN I WILL BE ACCUSED IF NOT BEING 'MORE CLEARER' in my writings, here

Is all that you have written above 100% true and accurate: Yes, or no?

I think most people respond differently to real life interactions with others.

1. What do you MEAN by 'real life interactions'? And, compared to what 'OTHER life interactions' ARE THERE?

Meeting someone in person, face to face as opposed to corresponding on the Internet through typing words.

2. WHY did you say and write that you, only, 'think most people respond differently to, (real life), interactions with others'? Does NOT EVERY person respond DIFFERENTLY to interactions with others, to you?

I KNOW EVERY one responds DIFFERENTLY to interactions with others.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 10:51 pm At least I do.

Okay, but does you saying this have ANY thing AT ALL to do with what you quoted me saying above, here?

If yes, then what is 'that', EXACTLY?

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 10:51 pm The Internet tends to bring out my worst.

Okay, interesting, 'Why is that's, EXACTLY?

What is 'it', about the internet that CAUSES 'this phenomenon' in you, exactly?

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 10:51 pm So maybe we aren't as bad in real life as we are on the Internet.

Okay.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 10:51 pm Is that possible too?

I NEVER thought otherwise.

Again, it appears as though your ASSUMING HAS LED you ASTRAY, here, ONCE MORE.

Just in case you have some interest, my point was that 'philosophy forums' are 'set up' with the intention of being just 'a place' for having 'philosophical discussions'. Which, obviously, is where 'critical thinking' and 'logical reasoning' is MEANT TO 'take place', AND if ANY 'attacking' were to 'take place', then it would only EVER BE ON 'an idea' or 'a view' ONLY, and NEVER ON 'a person's NOR 'people', EVER.

So, what I was saying was if this was how 'these people' spoke to and interacted with, 'each other', here, in A 'philosophy forum', back in the days when this was being written, then one could imagine how they spoke TO and WITH each other outside of where 'logical thinking' was NOT necessarily meant to be 'taking place'.

Does 'this' now CHANGE what you, previously, thought I was saying and meaning?

I usually behave differently when I meet someone in person.

WHO CARES?

you KEEP MISSING the WHOLE POINT. WHICH AGAIN IS:

If those in a 'philosophy forum', who are MEANT TO COME FOR 'logically reasoned discussions' ARE CRITICIZING, RIDICULING, and/or FIGHTING WITH 'each other', IN THE PAST, then one COULD IMAGINE HOW they MISBEHAVE OUTSIDE of the MEANT TO BE 'logically reasoning places'.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 11:40 pm If I meet the same person online, and don't know who they are then I might argue politics or philosophy with them, however, with face to face meetings, I just let people be who they are and don't argue politics of philosophy with them.

If you WENT TO A PLACE WHERE 'philosophical discussions' ARE MEANT TO 'TAKE PLACE', and there WAS 'face-to-face' INTERACTIONS, then would you ARGUE 'politics', or 'philosophize' THERE?

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 11:40 pm I usually just try to get along amicably with them.

WHO CARES?

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 11:40 pm Are you not the same way?

I ASKED you TO EXPLAIN WHY you ARE DIFFERENT in DIFFERENT PLACES. you DID NOT ANSWER, and CLARIFY.

YET, you WANT me TO ANSWER and CLARIFY IF I am NOT the 'same way'?

For 'me' to be ABLE TO ANSWER 'you' WITH 100% Accuracy AND Correctness, you WILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN MUCH MORE, and EXACTLY, ABOUT 'the way' that 'you' are ASKING 'me' ABOUT, here, IF 'I' AM the 'SAME WAY', or NOT.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2025 11:40 pm If you meet someone in person, face to face, do you ask them to clarify everything just like you do here?

It DEPENDS on HOW MUCH 'AUTHORITY' they are 'TRYING TO' SHOW, and/or EXPRESS IN 'their words'.

Do people EXPRESS 'their words' IN the 'SAME WAY' outside of this forum as they DO in this forum?

As far as I AM AWARE, YES.

Are you AWARE of ANY that is NOT 100% true and accurate?

If yes, then will you PLEASE INFORM me and the readers, here, of where, EXACTLY, and of why, EXACTLY, also?

I may well have "gary childress", but I can NOT legitimately speak for others feelings, so you would have to ASK others about how 'they' felt, instead.

Why do you ask?

Have you ever, intentionally, tried to make another feel bad about "them" 'self', "gary childress"?

I have intentionally tried to make others feel bad about themselves on multiple occasions. I would be surprised if that's something unique to me or you or many others out there--especially on the Internet.

I guess I was kind of wondering if you were perfect or not. Sometimes you seem very uniquely powerful. But with that power seems to come a kind of ability to make some of us feel very unsettled about ourselves, especially when we try to interact with you. Maybe you feel the same way about us?

What are your thoughts on the matter?

I am not sure what bearing 'the internet', itself, would have on this, but okay. Do you think that with the anonymity that can come with 'the internet' this then encourages people like "yourself" to want to ' make others feel bad about themselves" ', more often?

Also, I would suggest that EVERY human being, living in the days when this is being written anyway, and over a certain age, have at one time or another, have INTENTIONALLY 'tried to' make another feel so-called ' 'bad' about "themselves" '. However, SOME DO 'grow up' and 'out of' this, obviously, Wrong, and bad, misbehavior.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 11:08 pm I guess I was kind of wondering if you were perfect or not.

If this is what 'you' were/are REALLY wondering and REALLY would like to KNOW, for sure, then 'we' will NEED to have a discussion about who and what the words 'me', 'you', AND 'I' are MEANING and are REFERRING TO, EXACTLY, FIRST.

ALL human beings, including 'the human being' writing under the name and label "age", here, are NOT perfect. However, 'I' am PERFECT, and ONLY 'I'.

And, when 'you' ALSO UNDERSTAND and KNOW who and what 'I' AM, EXACTLY, then 'this', and 'all-of-this' DOES and WILL make PERFECT SENSE.

From what you see of 'the world', in the days when this is being written, do you have a 'sense' that there NEEDS to be A CHANGE, for the better?

If yes, then just maybe 'unsettling' the 'common denominator', here, might be what IS ACTUALLY NEEDED.

I am NOT RUSHING into EXPLAINING things, from the outset, because of the ACTUAL GOAL, which has been set in motion. See, if 'the goal' is NOT done GENTLY, GRADUALLY, and GRACEFULLY, then the 'unsettling', which is NEEDED, might turn things in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION. Which is some thing that ABSOLUTELY NO one wants, NOR needs.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 11:08 pm especially when we try to interact with you.

Okay, and THANK you for making me AWARE of this.

Have you or anyone else considered CHANGING 'the way' that you or they INTERACT WITH me?

What I have NOTICED, here, is when people are INTERACTING WITH me, here, they VERY QUICKLY ASSUME, or SEE, things that I am NOT ACTUALLY SAYING, and MEANING. And, so if they just SOUGHT OUT TO OBTAIN ACTUAL CLARITY, FIRST, BEFORE MAKING ANY ASSUMPTION, AT ALL, then 'our' INTERACTIONS MIGHT ACTUALLY CHANGE, for the better.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 11:08 pm Maybe you feel the same way about us?

NOT AT ALL.

There is NOT A thing people could say TO, nor ABOUT, me that I could or would find 'unsettling'.

Gary Childress wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 11:08 pm What are your thoughts on the matter?

Because I do NOT like to ASSUME absolutely ANY thing, I request you be more specific, here, and instead of writing the word 'matter' you just write the ACTUAL 'thing', itself, which you are asking me, 'What are 'my thoughts' ON', (exactly).
