I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
GIVEN.....the relatively short time man has been on earth....


GIVEN.....early man's primitive, superstitious nature....


GIVEN.....man's need for answers for the biggest questions....



And,



GIVEN.....the state of life on this planet with its many insurmountable problems and difficult nature of life in general.....



Man must invent answers, or sources for answers, or at least ways to make him feel good about life, about himself, and connected to the ineffable - that he might feel safe, protected and worthy.




But having said all this, I didn't say I appreciate why people believe all sorts of silly shit.




I said I just understand why.

yeah it's amazing. Like people come up with hypotheses for the nature of people they disagree with, write down what makes sense to them and assume it's true. I mean why wastes time testing or researching or checking with reality, when they can just come with generalizations about large numbers of people as armchair psychologists, I mean really. You've hit the nail on the head and then provided yourself as an example.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
The sad reality is that we are probably living about 1% of what life is designed and intended to be.


And so our perspective and understandings are derived from being highly myopic. Seriously myopic. Tragically myopic.


There should be no disease. No suffering. No violence. No ignorance. No greed. No need to work to sustain ourselves. No aging. No sudden death. And very long life spans.


This potential utopian state of life is first base for life - the common platform for all life - from which life can freely evolve unfettered - and realize its true potential.


But instead, we are stuck in this prison, this tar pit, this room of little light - and we stumble about trying to survive and to find our ways.



It is really an insult to life.


Truly.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
And the problem with living in such a state of life is that we are given to much speculation, rumination, conjecture and superstition when it comes to seeing and understanding what life is, how it is to be lived, and how this whole ball of wax is tied together and supposed to function.


And we fall prey to silly shit. Silly philosophies. Silly theologies. Silly misconstructions about how things interrelate and function.


I just don't know how or why people would not rather choose to believe nothing over the tons of silly shit they choose to believe.

I believe in "silly shit" because the Earth was flat in the past.



Hey retard, we do not know anything yet. Science is based on theories with facts interlaced with fiction.



Until you realize that you know nothing, you can never truly begin to learn. You have to let go of your past truths aka lies.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
Although there is no easy way out of or through this morass, we still can rise to the top of it all in consciousness and at least see and understand how life is supposed to be lived - and thus, let go of all our silly beliefs and misconceptions.

But the problem of individual consciousness is that it is weighted down by group consciousness. The lowest, greatest common denominator rules, in a sense - and provides a dragging dynamic for consciousness overall.

We can only hope for a phase transition in consciousness through one of perhaps several possibilities - such as the introduction of a third element to the group logos - such as alien intelligence.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
Perhaps the biggest buffer to consciousness on this planet is religion - for it both unifies and segregates while holding people at certain levels of consciousness. The key is not to get rid of religion - for that would not solve the problem of people's need to attach to primitive belief structures. The only solution to religion is to evolve in consciousness beyond all religion, making religion moot.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
You are free to dis science, but I believe it at least points us in true directions - such as astrophysics which delves into theories of matter - and is pointing to what underlies matter - if indeed matter actually exists at all. For to unveil the essential constituency of all that is, would certainly point to an essential, unifying truth.


What I cannot abide by are belief systems that separate and segregate - that indemnify separateness as essential - and that relegates life apart from life as a logical extension - especially in the eyes of their supposed "god". This is not of life nor is it the direction science is pointing us....

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
I am saddened that we are slaves to our math coprocessors, and instead in the fine field of celestial mechanics have taken to continue using newtonian physics, because we simply don't have the floating point accuracy for Einstein.

Much like how those global warming tards in the UK screwed up their research with their 'overflow' hockeystick because they suck at FORTRAN.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
It seems pretty elemental to be for each person to check their thoughts and beliefs to at least keep themselves pointed in the direction of unity consciousness - the highest state of consciousness we are capable of on this planet - and ask themselves if what they think or believe in any way causes them to look at anyone else as eternally different from them with a separate and perhaps lesser destiny compared to themselves. The best practice is to see everything as you - everything as the same thing - all as one.


This, in and of itself, can foster higher awareness.

I'm sorry, you are so right. The OP writer was being nice and I reacted so meanly. He simply came to a conspiracy forum and was condescending to pretty much everyone here by making up a story with as less evidence than there is for much of what he thinks is silly shit. But he meant it in a nice way. I know that you respond with kind, soft words when you are condescended to and I will try from here on out to live up to your example.

If you are a supporter of the scientific method, you need to notice that your OP presents a hypothesis as if it was a fact and does this based on no research at all. IOW you are not living up to your own principles, ones that you expect others to follow.

Re: I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SILLY SHIT.
There are 4 major categories that are cause for someone to believe something:

Sociological, physical, mental and spiritual. The sociological, physical and mental all are sets with overlapping proofs that verify each other to be true or to not be true.

The realm of the spiritual only has a direct consciousness connection to the mind. Only the individual can verify overlapping proofs of the realms of mental and the spiritual.

There is no means to "put it in a bag" and hand it to the realms of either sociological or physical. The "firewall" prevents it.

To each his own. You say surly, I say sour. I say potato, you say potaato.


My guesses about reality include 28 years immersed in the quantum physics of consciousness under the aegis of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. We were administered sutras that could be called "mental perfections" which pinpointed parts of our brain where higher functioning lay dormant - such as the ability to levitate - a practice which actually enlivens the entire brain and creates perfect inter-hemispheral brain wave synchrony - it stitches enlightenment into the brain, in a manner of speaking.

Although the inner experience was what was designed (and really why it was designed) the outer manifestation was far less - as we were only able to travel perhaps 5-8 feet at a time. Why? Because on this planet at this time, mass consciousness rules and cannot support such higher functioning - as consciousness is all one thing.

Now, you may continue to consider me an idiot, and as a clone type, you may also choose to use what I just stated as evidence or proof against me - as it suits your limited consciousness.


It's up to you, sour puss.
