I love the point you're making.
People often demand you PROVE whatever you're talking about...
However, those same people usually don't know what makes a proof a proof and wouldn't know a proof if it slapped them in the face. It doesn't matter to them anyway. They demand "GIVE ME PROOF!", using it as a way to put you on the defensive, halt forward progress of your arguments and shut you up. They could care less about innovative thoughts, new viewpoints, or the truth itself....because those things are of importance to them only as long as they can still be as happy as they want to be.
Most arguments on the Left and in the Mainstream devolve into those "Prove it. Cite it. Now I'm going to make fun of you." types of arguments. People think it makes them seem smarter by doing so...because the tv taught them that that's what "smart" people do.
It's sad and frustrating. Sometimes I feel like I live in the year 2505 and reading is only for fags.

If you don't like being called a woo woo maybe try to do something outside of your woo woo title

What church are you a Reverend in?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28316289


Did you even read the posts you quoted?

You know, where I said this -


We are GLP - We are Woo-Woo and proud of it!


It's not about being called a woo-woo it's about why anyone who thinks that that is an insult would be on this site in this first place.

My nickname in the real world is Lulu and I've been a called a space cadet for so long now that I've already made captain and am working on Admiral!

And to answer your other question - no church - a bunch of us got ordained on line one night and I changed my username to reflect it.


:hopper:
 Quoting: Rev StarGazer

Well you made the thread to whine about a thread that is insulting to Indians so all I ask is you think about how it feels to be insulted in such a way.

There are far too many white dope smokers who made themselves chiefs when they can't in reality even make it as indians dig?

I will give you an example

You are descended from a walrus and your family spiritual practice involves pedophilia.

I learned this by being a Kahuna Hinjew and I have a PhD in theology and metaphysics.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28316289


Now how does that make you feel?

And I should also point out that I give Hinjew Kahuna healings for 1,200 a weekend plus room and board
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28316289

But that is a personal insult meant to elicit negative emotion and not positive discussion. When presented with such things we have a choice - be offended and attack, ask for clarification, or ignore.
 Quoting: Éireann


It is insulting as hell to the American Indians to see all this bullshit promoted and spread as what they think.

Stop following the bullshitters because it is the ultimate insult to the tribes named.

The Hopi are NOT Hawaiian nor Jewish nor Tibetan nor Maya.

They know where they came from and they have asked numerous times to be left out of the whole new age woo woo scam.

Stop insulting people
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28316289

Uh.... huh? blink

I haven't insulted anyone. I have no clue what you are talking about.

We used to brain storm, think outside the box and talk about anything and everything.

But now, if you post a question, thought or theory without mainstream science backup and MSM approved links, you get pounced on by shills, trolls and plain old retards.

ENOUGH!!!!!

We are GLP - We are Woo-Woo and proud of it!

bananas
 Quoting: Rev StarGazer


Yes we are.
GLP has evolved from Kent to Elaine to Trin.
We used to be highly woo-woo.
But then woo-woo started to become mainstream.
Then we got the shills and trolls.
Shills to push a particular agenda and trolls to derail truth.
Then we got smarter mainstreamers taking the foray to the darkside.

And they wanted MSM links in order to justify the paradigm they still hold fast to.

Anyway, why are you asking?
You have a bird on your head.

Re: This Used To Be A Woo-Woo Site, What Happened????
I just get tired of reading the incessant, generic labeling of ideas/concepts that individuals don't agree with or find objectionable as if they truly believe that just slapping a subjective label on something is a sufficient means to 'debunk' it. Oh that's 'New age' BS this - 'Luciferian' deception that. Anytime anyone brings up anything related to Eastern philosophy you always see this crap transpire. If you want someone to take your claims seriously then you better demonstrate the awareness & wherewithal to actually ARTICULATE exactly WHY something is false or incorrect from a sensible/rational perspective that others can attempt to understand and consider.

No one is going to seriously believe you know what you are talking about when the extent of your refutation of an idea/concept consists of branding something with label that you find objectionable. All this does is shift focus away from the topic at hand and resort to pointless arguments/flaming over labels and detracts from the actual subject matter being discussed.

It is discouraging to see discussions frequently deteriorate into these types of responses and it highlights the extent of peoples' subconscious conditioning where they cannot explain their thoughts/perspective in any clear and concise manner - only have emotional reactions to ideas/concepts based on conditioned responses and automatic associations.

People on these forums often seem to judge things based on stereotypes rather than facts.

If you present a "doomy" scenario, even if it's backed up by facts, science, and logic, you're a doommonger!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28316289


Are they ever going to deal with their celiac disease issue? Can we talk about how type 1 diabetes impacts the community and how lack of research and education has left the Hopi to die-how would you like a genetics thread on American Indians with different slant?

[link to www.navajohopiobserver.com]


"It's really important for diabetic patients and Native American patients to receive this kind of education to know that this kind of service is available in their community to avoid amputation whenever possible," said Burke.


[link to en.wikipedia.org]


The DQ isoform has a complex genetic involvement in coeliac disease. And these involvements explain the majority of disease. One other haplotype exists that is associated with disease, although not as common in Europe, DQ8 is found to be involved in coeliac disease in peoples were DQ2 is not present. DQ8.1 haplotype encodes the DQA1*0301:DQB1*0302 haplotype and represents the overwhelming majority of all DQ8. DQ2.5 is generally highest in northern, islandic Europe, and the Basque of Northern Spain. Phenotype frequency exceeds 50% in certain parts of Ireland. DQ8 is extremely high in Native Americans of Central America and tribes of Eastern American origin, fortunately most of these peoples have retained a maize based diet

I started coming here because I could get news about things far earlier than on the MSM. The problem is, anytime someone disagrees with a post, they become a shill or troll. Just because you disagree with a poster doesn't make you a shill. If you want to post things that aren't backed up by anything other than your strange reality you should accept that people might disagree. Maybe because they are more experienced with a subject, not because they are a troll. I'm as open minded as the next guy, but I call a spade a spade.
