It's a good post. Just teasing. -
Okay. What should I change?

@Jirh You can call it imaginary, but how will you experience it? I don't care about your philosophies.

Stop stepping on her toes. Be more respectful about women.

The biggest spiritual trap of all: Buddhism -
@Ramanujan Focus on your strengths, let go of the shoulds. I'm not good at math or programming. Hasn't diminished my life one bit.

Imagine Mitch McConnell living till 200. Imagine Trump living till 200. Imagine Netanyahu living till 200. That is Hell.

Pursue understanding of God and your intelligence will truly rise. Not some gimmick.

Sure, it is easier to lose IQ points than to gain them.

It's science as a culture, as conformity, as group-think. These rational people do not understand that their worldview is just group-think, not a serious inquiry into Reality. That's why I called it "the myth of science". Science has turned itself into a myth. The myth of this ultimate mode of knowledge. But that notion is itself not scientific. Science is just much more limited than even scientists know. Scientists would be fine if they were more humble. But they turn into arrogant jackasses like Neil DeGrasse Tyson or Prof Dave. They have turned science into a totalitatrian worldview, which is antithetical to real science. Real science should be very open because it does not know so much.

I feel like there is a more subtle form of psychological suffering that Ralston glosses over. The worst suffering is not even necessarily physical. For a parent, the loss of a child is very serious suffering that they can't just ignore or dismiss at will. Is the loss of a child unnecessary suffering that you can just shut off? I think not. I once asked Shinzen Young how he would react if he lost his child. He said, "I would weep." That was a good answer.
