Dude jumpscare, freaked me out! ?

Youre expecting too much security, you gotta try stuff out, if it works it works, dont expect some Jesus figure to tell you what is 100% tried and true. If you knew it was 100% true, how would you know that is true?

@Consept The nuance of your arguments is flying over their heads, I would probably give up on this futile task. No offence to you guys @-Tim- @LaucherJunge but as the Chinese say "Its like a chicken talking to a duck".

Realized I bought The Science Delusion and didnt read it, totally on that right now! Oh Interesting! Will look into that one! He is a Christian?

Anywhere on the Spiral. Its like saying where does Christianity fall? Well, you can be a Blue moralistic Christian, a crusading Red one, an Orange TV-Evangelist. You cant really put Socialism into a box like that.

Thats pretty deep!

How bout a sinful nun?

A nun?

So I have to climb through all those holes in the middle?

Yep, and humans are complex creatures with multi-faceted personalities. SD is good at seeing basic level values but it obviously wont tell you everything about a person or a society.

How scientific does it have to be? Its a psychological model, no model is 100% true, but its a good model. Have you read the book?

??‍♂️

Seems youre not really listening anymore. I love my country, I love other countries too, for different reasons. Open your mind to the beauty of other cultures. Theres no free healthcare in the US, does that mean I should hate the Us? of course not, Im happy my country has free healthcare and hope yours will too. I can appreciate the good and bad of different countries.

Of course it makes us prosper now. The winners of colonialism and imperialism came out on top, not because were better, because we ruthlessly exploited Africa, Asia and the Middle-east to some extent, read some history. I mean the first 250 years of US was based on Free Labor (*cough *cough, slavery) for Christs sake! I dont hate the West btw, Im just honest enough to criticize it. Seeing the good and bad in a country doesnt equal hating it.

What countries do you think were pillaged and raped to make America great?

lmao

Glimpses shouldnt fade... You should atleast be able to go back to whatever "state" you were in, otherwise it was just that... an emotional state. Its kind of like... What I just saw cant be unseen... But it doesnt mean youre in that state all the time... Im mostly an unconscious monkey, but with a little focus I can experience "A witness state".

Really? Ive had tiny glimpses and they feel amazing... All that tension built up after looking for so long is released, I get all giddy and happy and amazed.

Like I said, not the way I would personally go about it, but I dont run the forum. Why dont you start your own forum? Or go to some other forum? Theres probably forums out there with more openness, quality though? Doubt it. Stage Green is about caring for minorities, if cops are being cruel to minorities they will be angry, sometimes blindly, sometimes in a more reflective way.

Just keep grinding away! Even tiny glimpses are so satisfying!

Society isnt all pretty flowers, opinions will be challenged. Time to grow up.

Once again, this is his forum, i honestly think hes fairly patient with all the stuff going on here, but i also think he is trying to pull people away from the toxic alt-right movement that is growing so strong right now and more towards Stage Green and to do that he has to be a bit rough and not allow just any idea to be spouted. Not the way i would do it but i guess thats what hes doing. I personally wouldnt want my business to become some all out open nonsense forum like 4-Chan.

This is Leos business and his forum, if he wants to block someone, thats his choice. Do you think a right-wing nazi forum would do anything different?
