What makes you think you are owed all the answers you are demanding? Work on your tone and approach, you might get better results. Also, everybody's life experiences, talents and abilities are different, so most of your "why did you not do it exactly like X" questions are pointless.

Is it ok to drink the remaining alcohol?

I want that angels number..

It is also a lot easier to fast once you are already in ketosis.

Berries, nuts, eggs, coconut oil, hydralites, greens, meat..

I am a lion, and can confirm this. We are all sentient. I feel really bad after hunting down and eating a sentient zebra. But whats a lion to do?

People can "change" when drinking, and I suspect this "new personality" may actually be a suppressed shadow coming out to play (or fight)? Just a theory though...

So its more of a regional vs urban mindset thing, right? And what are some of these practical values? Give a few examples please.. What about those living in the cities then? Why are they less likely to be blue collared people? Could they also be busy working and raising families? Hold on.... This sounds more like the top one percent! Is that who you're talking about? The group that does not have to work for a living? And don't mention cake, am trying to minimize on those carbs

It might help bring out the shadow? For doing shadow work...

Congrats! You've already taken the first two biggest steps towards a solution: realization and intent

Its good you can keep a sense of humor about it, tough situation.

Here is a scenario, as I'm not sure I get what you mean by arguing. Is this how you would act? You get a new flatmate in your two bedroom apartment, shared bathroom. They are a pig in the bathroom (skid marks, pissing on the floor, never cleaning up etc). You have no control over who to share with, and cannot move out anytime soon because corona lockdown. Nick_98: Hey, flatmate. Could we please clean up after ourselves with the bathroom and shared spaces? flatmate: You are not my mom! You cannot tell me what to do. Nick_98: Ok. [walks away while making funny expressions]

psssttt!!

You've got cause and effect mixed up: the tendency towards lighter skin was caused by geography. It did not unlock geography... how do you even unlock geography!? And if you are only talking about the rise of the British empire and ignoring all other civilizations that came before and influenced it, yes. It is fair to say that geography is the only cause of advancement. You are basically saying race causes geography, and geography causes advancement. And just to be clear, by advancement do you mean economic advancement, or genetic advancement? This reads like something a lawyer would write trying to cover their ass against all possible future outcomes, rather than communicate. Meaningless gibberish, to put it more bluntly.

The Moors were a group of Muslim tribes native to parts of North and North Western Africa, spanning the parts of now modern day Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, and Egypt. The Moors invasion and occupation of Western Europe began in the 8th century and lasted 700 years until 1500. Contrary to conventional wisdom, it was Africans that brought civilization to Spain and large parts of Europe and not the other way around. Half of man's recorded history had passed before anyone in Europe could read or write. The priests of Egypt started to keep records written between 4000 and 3000 BC, but more than two thousand years later the poems of Homer were still circulated in the Greek city-states by word of mouth... while the Pharaohs were constructing pyramids, the Greeks were making nothing more distinguished than large garbage heaps. The first civilization of Europe was established on the Greek island of Crete in 1700 BC and the Greeks were primarily civilized by the Black Africans of the Nile Valley. The Greeks then passed on this acquired culture to the Romans who ultimately lost it; thus, initiating the Dark Ages that lasted for five centuries. Civilization was once again reintroduced to Europe when another group of Black Africans, The Moors, brought the Dark Ages to an end. During its peak, Cordova, the center of Moorish territory in Spain, was the most modern city in all of Europe. The streets were well-paved and pedestrians could walk on the raised sidewalks. At nighttime, several streets were often illuminated with lamps. Cities like London or Paris featured paved streets and lamps only centuries later. Cordova also boasted about 900 public baths. The Moors created a huge impact in the field of education. Europe at that time only had two prominent universities. But within the Moorish territory of Spain alone, almost 17 universities existed. Education was universal in Muslim Spain, while in Christian Europe, 99 percent of the population was illiterate, and even kings could neither read nor write. The Moors boasted a remarkably high literacy rate for a pre-modern society. The founders of Oxford University were inspired to form the institution after visiting universities in Spain. According to the United Nations’ Education body, the oldest university operating in the world today, is the University of Al-Karaouine of Morocco founded during the height of the Moorish Empire in 859 A.D. by a woman named Fatima al-Fihri. During the 10th and 11th centuries, Moorish Spain also had almost seventy libraries. This was at a time when public libraries in Europe were non-existent. After the collapse of the Roman Empire multitudes of white warring tribes from the Caucasus were pushed into Western Europe by the invading Huns. The Moors invaded Spanish shores in 711 AD and African Muslims literally civilized the wild, white tribes from the Caucus. The Moors eventually ruled over Spain, Portugal, North Africa and southern France for over seven hundred years. https://culturewhiz.org/articles/moors-europe This post is mainly in response to a xenophobic comment I read in another thread: "When you look at the ACTUAL statistics, it is clear that, for example, Germany (my home country) will develop into an Islamic state in the next 50 years, just based on birth rates. This will set the country back to stage blue, congrats." @Robi Steel The assumption here is that people of different races/religions are inherently more backward. That how civilized/intelligent/peaceful/enlightened etc is something that is hard coded into a human beings DNA. History and science has proven this wrong time and time again, yet this mentality still persists. Do not confuse culture and DNA. Race itself is a social construct. You will not find it in your genes or DNA. A pale white ginger European man can be genetically closer to some black african woman than he is to his white blond girlfriend. Infact... In a very real sense, all people alive today are Africans! The comment is xenophobic because it assumes that Germany will automatically regress just because the majority race/religion changes. Race and religion has nothing to do with advancement, it is all about culture. Culture is learnt. And a culture can regress, regardless race. Nazi Germany and Isis being great modern examples of how quickly that can happen, regardless of the racial composition of a populace. Germany may actually emerge stronger and greater as a melting pot of cultures... isn't that what made America great to begin with? There is nothing wrong with wanting to preserve your culture or way of life, even though its futile in the end, as the only constant in human history and life is change. What is harmful, using choosing fear over love in how you go about preserving it. For example, nationalism is choosing fear (by hating other nationalities) while patriotism is choosing love (the love of your country). You can love your country and culture without being hateful of "the other". And love is much more powerful than fear. The best way to preserve the German culture and way of life is through the inclusion and integration of "the other". Fear does not work. If you think fear works, look at Trumps America. Do you think the big backlash over George Floyd against racism and police brutality would have happened under an Obama presidency? Trumps hate, in a funny way is actually accelerating the demise of what he is trying to preserve. So go ahead and vote for him again @Robi from Germany, the effects of another 4 years of Trump on the conservatives may be even worse.

Ok, lets do that. Who exactly are these "blue collar people", what are these "things" they see and how do they them?

A newborn does not know what selfishness is, nor does it know what selflessness is. Knowing either of this concepts requires prerequisite knowledge. Knowledge of the self. Think of a newborns mind as the ego-death conscious state. The conscious mind is almost blank, like an empty computer disk. The subconscious mind already has most of its survival programs, and for humans, that includes those needed for survival as part of a social group. The spider that eats its mother will not have any of those programs, as it is designed to live a selfish, solitary life. Not so with humans. Human babies are one of the most useless offspring in the animal kingdom, fully dependent on selfless carers for in the first years of life

Yes, present cultural tensions exist today. Can they be solved? If you are worried about how Germany will look in 50 years, what policies today will make for a better future Germany? And are they based on love and inclusion of Merkel, or the hate and division of Trump?

Vitamin D is great for the bones! That must be how the vikings did it.. Geography did play a big role in the rise of Europe and the British empire.

Good questions. Yes. I think the ego is great, and part of the required apparatus for living and being happy as a human. The whole ego-less fully transcended human goal is just an ideal. A worthy ideal, but not a practical one in terms of actually achieving it. Humans will human. Personally I believe there is more to life than self development and becoming enlightened, like just enjoying yourself and having a good time. Otherwise whats the point? Even monks who've taken a vow of silence and decided to spend their lives in a secluded mountain somewhere still indulge in worthless cheap thrills like building mandalas with colored sand. I do not however consider politics/government/social issues cheap thrills. They should be taken seriously. The option you have today of not having to take them seriously is a privilege, don't ever forget that. If it all does not matter, why not paint the toilet walls with shit after taking a dump? After all, its a just a dream. Nothing matters.. Yes, it can get depressing. That's life, they'll be up and downs, and even more deeper downs when you take the spiritual or self development path. That's why its called work, not play. Who are this enlightened people? How can you tell they are enlightened?

This is a very modern "survival for the fittest" belief system that I do not agree with. Human beings as a spieces would never make it if they were born selfish. Neither would ant. Some organisms can and do, like spiders (where the female eats the male for lunch after sex, and the baby spiders feast on mommy). I do not believe human beings are born good either, we are born blank. Everything has to be learnt, including the fact that we are separate individuals. A newborn baby has no concept of self, which is a requirement of selfishness.

Last comment about that sentence, as I am not that interested in playing semantic gymnastics about the words used to convey my point, which is: the level of advancement of a people has nothing to do with race.

Advancement is a type of shaping. Or replace shaping with changing. Same thing.

Yes, and that why I said
