  2. Why should somebody care what the average user is interested in? You make much more simplified generalisations without arguments. Because it looks like Blackpill does not mean it is. Even if it is black pill if it is part of the truth it can be worth something.
  3. @Derek White On the matter of concentration you are dead wrong. Your way is tried a lot of times and because it failed people use meditation as it works much better. Doing what you love ends up in playing videogames and ends up becoming an addict.
  4. @Bobby_2021 One way to see it is Judaism selects for IQ. It is as far I know much more difficult intellectually to become a Jew than a Christian or Muslim. It is if Mensa would be a religion and had to marry each other. The Mensa people would become their own tribe and ethnicity.
  5. I thought this topic is taboo https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/why-do-jews-succeed
  6. Can you solve science questions better than scientists? Did it help making more push ups?
  7. God wants to be low conscious. So it is how it is supposed to be some say.
  8. As an older guy now I am interested iin video games in order to explore that world but I am a bit scared that it will make me addicted and waste too much time. I can identify a bit with the situation of Mat Walsh. So I will watch him play video games.
  9. Watch the video. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/04/13/us/coronavirus-made-in-lab-poll-trnd/index.html
  10. No that is not the point. They knew that it was not clear but they run with the lie. Is that ok? Sam Harris might say yes.
  11. I think that is why meditation is so important. Calming the mind is easier than fighting it
  12. Seen through the material lense your body is what matters. Your mind's job is to help him to survive. Even if the free will question bothers your mind it does not bother your body. You have to help your body to get what it needs and stop doing stuff that hurts it. So try things that stimulate your senses. You figured out that being social stops the questioning. Your body wants to tell you that you should concentrate on survival not in theories. You have to take care of your friend that is your body first of all. Stimulating your senses makes sense.
