  1. I don't think so, they are saying they are doing a press conference on Tuesday I am waiting to see if they have a reasonable list of political demands, not just tearing a fence down. Do they think they are going to bum rush the place and free prisoners? They want the Feds out ok but that was recent, what else, it's been 60 days ?
  2. Love is more than acceptance in my opinion If you accept death as an inevitability that doesn't mean you want to die or are happy about dying. If you need a shot of medicine you accept the pain of being stuck with needle or the the drill of a root canal. But is this love because it is acceptance? Why take a beautiful word like "love" and relegate it to simply giving up when you realize resisting is hopeless? "Surrendering to God", that's good but what about surrendering to a military invasion by an overwhelming large group of fascists? You might choose to accept it rather than be killed but is that acceptance love or practicality? Surrendering to anything more powerful, is that is love ? Is accepting everything better because everything is included? If you accept that fact that murder and rape go on in the world you don't have to accept a particular potential rape or murder you might be able to prevent but to do so Is that love? or is it apathy labeled love? Do we believe that loving everything is better because it's loving more things? If you love murders and also love feeding starving children is this infinite love? Is creation so wonderful that we are expected to love watching a mob stomping somebody to death? If we can image an extreme "absolute" or "infinite" or "unconditional" love are we to discard all ethics or accept any behavior because to not accept it would be leaving something out and then we couldn't apply these "unlimited" "absolute" Infinite" purest words ?
  3. The name "karen" is used to specifically indicate such behavior in white females Does racist behavior of the people in the videos cancel that? No. It's like when people try to argue not all black people are N's Now think of a stereotypical black woman's name ______________________________, Now collect a bunch of black women doing some particular behavior and start posting various videos of each of these clips and label each one this stereotypical name That is what is going on here. Do you want all these racial memes to start happening now? It's a populist low minded mentality. Isn't this Karen thing cute and funny. GIve it another couple of months there is a lot of racial animosity peculating from various angles right now and a lot of big stress factors on the economy. People are buying up a lot of guns. Crime rates are going up, Federal troops are being sent around. This is not a game I have no problem with showing people misbehaving in public captured on video but this stereotyping and the labeling is stupid, hypocritical and destructive. It's cute now but it's thing like this is another step in a progression Oh , you live somewhere removed from all this? Nothing is at risk for you? Good for you
  4. My Health Situation, Leo Gura Blog July 21, 2020 https://www.actualized.org/insights ____________________________________________________________________ Sorry to hear about this Chronic Fatigue may father had it but he was quite old by then. I have noticed that the CDC had withdrawn their recommendations for gradual exercise and cognitive therapy. There are some recent journal articles talking about how exercise had made their CF worse. This may not mean it doesn't mean it can't work. I assume you've tried that approach. For instance daily walking, running or swimming and done at very gentle levels, no pushing but doing it faithfully every day at the same time, the distance not mattering. I assume you've tried that, seems very ordinary. Although some CFS sufferers report this making their symptoms worse. It seems the outcomes is not entirely conclusive Maybe you've tried hypno therapy. That can be effective if the person doing it is very experienced. You should be able to get a recording of the session. Then you listen to it just before sleeping and after you wake up when your brain waves are in the suggestible sate . This would have to be done for at least a month. This doesn't mean the CFS is not physiological --it means the remedy might not be. The subconscious is like a dog. It will respond to repetitious suggestion over a period of time
  5. Leo explains that in his last video on youtube Why Is There Something Rather Than Nothing? July 19, 2020 28:21 "everything is nothing" 15:10 "there's literally no distinction between nothing and something" ___________________________________________________________________ Similarly formlessness is form
  6. That is not what Leo says about God. He says "God literally cannot see bad or evil. So for God these things do not exist."
  7. Here is a reading comprehension test, Compare your comprehension level with and without psychedelics. https://www.testprepreview.com/modules/reading1.htm
  8. The term "karen" is racist It is stereotyping names just like if a white person used "Leroy" every time they referred to a black person The delivery man is in the wrong here. He is expecting a woman who opens the locked door of her building to let him in. What he should be doing is respecting her security stand away from the door, let her go in and after the door closes ring the bell. Why do I say this? Because I got robbed at gunpoint once while entering a building. How is this woman to know that this complete stranger is someone who she should be let into her building? I don't condone the woman's condescending remarks, she is in the wring for that and her persistence to try to keep him out even after the tenant on the intercom verifies that they they have a delivery but that is a separate issue. Some people who have always live a sheltered existence don't understand this. There are also people who dress up as Fed Ex employees and do home invasions. People in cities sometimes visit other people and when they get to their friend's building someone is already entering the building so they come up behind that person, push the door back some as it's closing and they enter also. This normal behavior in public building that have guards but in private buildings it bypasses the security of the building. I don't do this. I keep my distance let the person enter and for the door to close. Then I ring the bell
  9. Leo's definition of love from his video What is Love? video and elsewhere Yes absolute acceptance of everything would include loving torturing animal and love setting homeless people on fire, yes that would be included in infinite love . . From in the thread: Something rather than nothing, infinity, love,hate >> . So if God is amoral and accepts everything and God's infinite love includes loving rape, torture and murder why would someone want to be God ? That is my question

  14. There are videos where people have forgiven and even hugged people that killed one of their family members Matthew 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, 44: Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;”

  21. July 24, 2020 July 24, 2020 Two statues of Christopher Columbus that stood in Chicago parks have been taken down at the direction of Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a week after protesters trying to topple one of the monuments to the Italian explorer clashed with police. Crews used a large crane to remove the statue from its pedestal in downtown Chicago's Grant Park as a small crowd gathered to watch. That's the park where police and protesters clashed a week ago. Hours later, a second statue of Columbus was removed from Arrigo Park in Chicago's Little Italy neighborhood. The Democratic mayor's office said in a statement issued after the statues were taken down that both were "temporarily removed" at the mayor's direction "in response to demonstrations that became unsafe for both protesters and police." Columbus Circle, Manhattan New York https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ny-cuomo-columbus-statue-central-park-renewed-calls-20200611-xoo2gonqgbcqnlujtisqc4o3ze-story.html Cuomo again defends Columbus amid renewed calls to remove statue NY Daily News JUN 11, 2020 ALBANY — Gov. Cuomo is standing by his man. The governor again defended New York City’s Christopher Columbus statue on Thursday, calling it a point of pride for Italian Americans like himself, as similar tributes to the explorer have been removed or targeted by protesters in recent days. “I understand the feelings about Christopher Columbus and some of his acts, which nobody would support, but the statue has come to represent and signify appreciation for the Italian American contribution to New York,” Cuomo said during a briefing in Albany. “For that reason, I support it.” ________________________________________ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_Day Columbus Day Celebration of Christopher Columbus' voyage in the early United States is recorded from as early as 1792. In that year, the Tammany Society in New York City[4] (for whom it became an annual tradition)[5][6] and the Massachusetts Historical Society in Boston celebrated the 300th anniversary of Columbus' landing in the New World.[7][8] For the 400th anniversary in 1892, following a lynching in New Orleans where a mob had murdered 11 Italian immigrants, President Benjamin Harrison declared Columbus Day as a one-time national celebration.[9][10] The proclamation was part of a wider effort after the lynching incident to placate Italian Americans and ease diplomatic tensions with Italy.[9] During the anniversary in 1892, teachers, preachers, poets and politicians used rituals to teach ideals of patriotism. These rituals took themes such as citizenship boundaries, the importance of loyalty to the nation, and the celebration of social progress.[11][12][13] Many Italian-Americans observe Columbus Day as a celebration of their heritage, and the first such celebration had already been held in New York City on October 12, 1866.[14] The day was first enshrined as a legal holiday in the United States through the lobbying of Angelo Noce, a first generation Italian, in Denver.[15] The first statewide holiday was proclaimed by Colorado governor Jesse F. McDonald in 1905, and it was made a statutory holiday in 1907.[16][17] In 1934, as a result of lobbying by the Knights of Columbus and New York City Italian leader Generoso Pope, Congress passed a statute stating: "The President is requested to issue each year a proclamation (1) designating October 12 as Columbus Day; (2) calling on United States Government officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on Columbus Day; and (3) inviting the people of the United States to observe Columbus Day, in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies that express the public sentiment befitting the anniversary of the discovery of America. Opposition to Columbus Day dates back to at least the 19th century, when anti-immigrant nativists sought to eliminate its celebration because of its association with immigrants from the Catholic countries of Ireland and Italy, and the American Catholic fraternal organization, the Knights of Columbus.[84] Some anti-Catholics, notably including the Ku Klux Klan and the Women of the Ku Klux Klan, opposed celebrations of Columbus or monuments about him because they thought that it increased Catholic influence in the United States, which was largely a Protestant country.[84] By far the more common opposition today, decrying both Columbus' and other Europeans' actions against the indigenous populations of the Americas, did not gain much traction until the latter half of the 20th century. This opposition was initially led by Native Americans and was expanded upon by left-wing political parties.[85][86][87] Two surveys conducted in 2013 and 2015 by Rasmussen Reports found 26% to 38% of American adults are not in favor of celebrating Columbus Day.[88][89] There are many interrelated strands of criticism. One refers primarily to the treatment of the indigenous populations during the European colonization of the Americas which followed Columbus's discovery. Some groups, such as the American Indian Movement, have argued that the ongoing actions and injustices against Native Americans are masked by Columbus myths and celebrations.[90] American anthropologist Jack Weatherford says that on Columbus Day, Americans celebrate the greatest waves of genocide of the American Indians known in history.[91] A second strain of criticism of Columbus Day focuses on the character of Columbus himself. In time for the 2004 observation of the day, the final volume of a compendium of Columbus-era documents was published by the University of California, Los Angeles's Medieval and Renaissance Center. It stated that Columbus, while a brilliant mariner, exploited and enslaved the indigenous population.[92] Spelman College historian Howard Zinn described some of the details of how Columbus personally ordered the enslavement and mutilation of the native Arawak people in a bid to repay his investors.[93] Journalist and media critic Norman Solomon reflects, in Columbus Day: A Clash of Myth and History, that many people choose to hold on to the myths surrounding Columbus. He quotes from the logbook Columbus's initial description of the American Indians: "They do not bear arms, and do not know them, for I showed them a sword, they took it by the edge and cut themselves out of ignorance.... They would make fine servants.... With 50 men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want."
