integral

im using stupid to mean lack of consciousness. Its not that complicated, its not low level judgement.

He might discover a new type of aging he didnt account for.

Is trump stupid? no hes just a narcissist phycopath. Is a parent stupid? no there just ignorent. Is a gf stupid? no there just forgetful. ... this is what everyone is doing. the word stupid has no meaning then. Replace the word stupid with, "lack of consciousness". That's basically what I'm saying

If a person doesn't have strong self-introspection self-awareness thinking process then they are stupid? If they're following the script Society is giving them, all their values are not a conscious thing to them, then they're stupid? When exactly do we draw the line?

I'm lumping stupidity as a lack of consciousness. The more conscious you are the more you can integrate all of that.

If you guys are saying this is not stupidity give examples and break it down further I have no idea what you mean.

It's unclear what part of this is not stupidity when living with other people? There are many Lifestyles that simply need to live apart that's fine but I'm not talking about that. If you wake up in the morning and vacuum at 5:00 a.m. while other people are sleeping and you refuse to adapt, what am I supposed to call this? If you own a dog for over 10 years and every time they poop in the house you get extremely angry and it disrupts your whole day, this is not stupidity?

I mean all of this in the context when you're living with other people and you have to function in an intelligent way to make all of the lifestyles work. And also in the context of knowing how to live a good life and to design your lifestyle intelligently which no one does. A ugly toaster that works should not be replaced for a prettier one. These kinds of practical things people cannot handle because every time they look at the toaster they don't like it and they don't know why they don't like it and there's constantly this itch inside them that has to buy a new toaster. And they can't rise above these attachments. People are just blindly following their programming as there lifestyle, it's not a consciously designed lifestyle. And when you're living with someone else your whole lifestyle has to be a flexible conscious thing and there needs to be priorities and hierarchy of priorities above other things. Like people have sleep schedules and you don't wake up at 5:00 in the morning and start vacuuming. When you're managing money you have to be able to put function over Aesthetics and be practical. These are all things Society doesn't teach anyone

For God its true alot of us are along for the ride, we dont have the equipment to verify alot of it. His work is very broad and it all ties into itself in a unified framework were every branch is easy enough to make sense of. It then all comes together into one metaphysics. So its not all pure naive following him, his work has so much value in every domain, i cant say Ralston or others really capture such a unified scope.

@zurew but Leo's whole point is that epistemology can lead to direct knowing of reality. So it's not about logical reasoning within a paradigm vs other paradigms. It's about doing epistemology to know what Paradigm is true

That's reasonable if the god he's imagining is the one that sends you to hell for murder, then that's a God who has a fixed human good/bad agenda. And is not all loving. So yeah I get why they get stuck in that one atheist perspective for life. But as an atheist you would then go to all the other different definitions of God from the other religions and the all loving nature of God is harder to dispute. At that point I assumed they just point to well it's all unknowable because there's no evidence. Being unaware of favoritism to their own epistemology. And making the assumption that reality is unknowable.

Yes 100%, "What is conscious philosophy".

The argument of that atheist is so stereotypical. "Then why is there child bone cancer?" Even if you're an atheist you could still reason that in the larger picture of things child bone cancer is good. Cancer is good for cancer. God loves cancer equally to god loving children. this is logic that does not require awakening. You are so selfish you want your child to live and you want the cancer to die.

This is why living with our parents was hell. A stupid persons life style is designed by chasing pleasures, not by thoughtful considerations. A stupid person will misunderstand you everyday, and forget all efforts you put to be understood. A stupid person will always put there choices above yours and never trust your judgment. A stupid person will not allow you to make good decisions, because they dont understand them. A stupid person believes there judgement is always better then yours. A stupid person demands to lead when they are the least qualified. A stupid person feels wronged every day you are living with them if they have to compromise in minor ways. A stupid person cannot see the hierarchy of priorities and human needs. They put there needs at the top. A stupid person cannot accept anything that is not there life style and will feel suppressed every day they dont get it. A stupid person will not choose the higher way of life and resent being forced to. A stupid person will always fight for the life style they want instead of integrating a better one. A stupid person will use there inteligence to prove to themselves that they are right. A stupid person Values getting what they want rather then living in harmony with others. A stupid person feels resentment when they need to compromise, but demand everyone to compromise for them. A stupid person forgets and defaults to what they want, instead of integrating conflict resolution. A stupid person blames you for there minor ideals not being met caused by minor life style differences. A stupid person cannot see they are defending emotional attachments. A stupid person will always put there needs above yours if they have the power to do so. A stupid person seeks power over you so there needs are met above yours. A stupid person Values indulging in short term pleasure above one that gives them the highest state. A stupid person Values aesthetics in there home above function. A stupid person will never admit they are wrong. A stupid person will view there efforts as 10x any effort you make. A stupid person is trying to manipulate you to get what they want, instead of considering everyones needs.

Have you found a reliable routine to get into flow consistently?
