Hey Bambi, don't be an unpleasant deer. Where does a thought originate from? When Newton had an insight about gravity who placed that insight into his awareness? All credit goes to God. God is the only source.

@Fluran Corruption happens on both sides. However, Trump is more power-hungry and he will be willing to go to great lengths to keep it. Now that Trump has won the election, I suggest we become more familiar with Totalitarianism and how it arises. Arendt can help us in this respect.

Thanks for sharing.

I think the majority of Trump supporters don't think for themselves. That is one of the reasons why totalitarianism arises. When everyone follows orders blindly, without critical thinking, they become the invisible hand of a dictator who can execute his will.

https://www.actualized.org/insights/actualized-quotes-082 When you criticize the enemy, you are separating yourself from Him. That is your punishment. The possibility for victory is made possible by the existence of an enemy. Thank you Donald Trump for being the enemy. Trump is a thief, liar, and pure embodiment of human selfishness. Can you love that?

I came across the following video which summarizes the work of Hannah Arendt, one of the best political philosophers of the 20th century. Anyone interested in how totalitarianism arises should become more familiar with her work (especially if Trump wins the election). Enjoy!

So you don't want enlightenment to be sugarcoated?

You used to have much better ideas, Socrates. What happened? I think now is the right time for a philosopher king.

He has been talking a lot about crocodiles and Trump lately.

I present you my present, which can't be represented.

Only He who does not have a self can be selfless. For that is His nature. As long as you have a self, you will be selfish.

Your Hypothesis has already been tested. Timothy Leary and Ram Das locked themselves in a mention and kept taking psychedelics for months on end. No matter how high you get, you always come down.

Only through Grace after the ultimate surrender. Best of luck.

As long as you need courses on miracles, you do not deserve the miracles. Reflect on this.

Based on how much you talk about Trump, we must conclude you are secretly in love with him. If God were to create a mirror in which human selfishness can be reflected, could he create a better mirror than Trump?
