  1. I never even said brain chemistry controls your state. I said there are many factors.
  2. You can talk all you want, but in the end state rules everything you think, feel, and know. You both can and can't control your state.
  3. I'm always inquiring further, but I don't chase answers to overly detailed human questions, such as, Why did the car run over my dog?
  4. @Matthew85 The answer is profound mystery, not human logic.
  5. Damaged isn't the right word.
  6. I would say you need strongly liberal and strongly conservative views for the best life. Applied in proper contexts.
  7. A religious fundamentalist shows up at the therapist's office. Therapist calls his wife and tells her, "Honey, we can buy that house you wanted."
  8. For sure conservatives are massive hypocrites. They love to speak of morality but then behave like savages. Then again, you are young, so the social decay was already in full force during your childhood. And of course the decay affects conservative areas too. What you described IS the moral decay that serious conservatives are always complaining about. They would agree with you that things are decayed and therefore we must tighten up our belt. We are moving up the Spiral, but that comes with ups and downs. As an example, industrialisation was huge progress for mankind, but it was also very ugly for many people who had to work in dirty factories. That's how civilization seems to evolve. It's not all positive. It's very hairy.
  9. I don't see any trends in our culture that would solve these problems. Our culture is still degrading. As you can see with the popularity of people like Tate.
  10. Being social is wired into the female psyche. Women are people people. They are relationship oriented. You can feed a cat until it is too fat to run, but it will still always have the instinct to pounce on birds. It's not hostile per se, it's just that sex has naturally greater consequences for women than for men.
  11. It's not a problem at all. Spiral stages will vary geographically because geography is a huge factor in development. Liberal and conservative are RELATIVE! All American's deepest conservatives are liberals relative to Afghanistan. Yes, of course. A solid Yellow mind is very rare. The issue is that liberal and conservative are relative. And conservative values are still operative at higher levels. Just the more healthy forms of conservatism. If you have a conservative temperment, that is not going to change as you evolve up the Spiral. You're not going to turn into a liberal. So yes, it is like a personality type.
  12. Yes they are. Traditional religion has been replaced with crap like TikTok. Most people got their values, purpose, and philosophy from following tradition. That has been erroded by liberalism. It makes sense that liberals get the worst of it, because they have no tradition anchoring them. Conservatives and traditionalists will be less prone to meaningless shallow materialistic lives. Think of what happens when you replace church with MTV, Fortnite, Instagram, porn, and rap music. Most people are incapable of creating their own purpose, values, and philosophy.
  13. Some therapists are advanced. Although I doubt she actually knows what Truth is. You could ask her and it will be very clear. Be ware of people who mouth the right words but don't actually have direct experience of what they are talking about.
  14. It would require infinite consciousness to know that.
  15. It's purely a function of state of consciousness. They are simply in the wrong state. There may be many reasons as to why. If your state was adjusted in the right way, you could be fully Awake 30 seconds from now. And without that adjustment you will never be Awake no matter what you do.
  16. Yes, I seriously contemplate.
  17. Such things cannot be explained. God is too profound to understand so explicitly.
  18. The truth I talk about is truth with yourself, inside your own mind, not the things you say to others. Although the more you lie to others the more you will tend to lie to yourself.
  19. @Majed As I said, conservative and liberal are not developmental stages. You should treat them as personality types, which cut across all stages of development, similar to introvert and extrovert. There is no introvert stage. There is no feminine stage. There is no gay stage. There is no entrepreneur stage.
  20. Cliffracer dreams.
