Skeptiko Community Heart to Heart

I have something to say. I've already said many things in this forum, but I have more to say, important to me.

I confess I've done something wrong, even if I have a reason.

I don't know how to speak this in English, let me have a try, I think I should be strict to myself and be lenient to the others. I shouldn't explicitly or implicitly tag anyone or any organization or any group or any type of people with the word stupid, insane, fraud, gullible, etcetera, yet I really have done so many times.

But I want to explain, even if I deem whom as frauds, I don't mean that I hate them or I condemn them or I think they should stop making deceiving claims, I only express my opinions with a wish that my opinions are only presented for the others to read, think, discuss, or, even abuse me, yeah call me pig hog boar swine like what I often call myself, I wish I only bring things for further discussion not for navigating anyone or anything's sailing route, or for taking any influence into effect.

In other words, if someone is fraud, I sincerely wish them continue to do whatever at their ease, if someone is insane, I wish them do their ease, and even if someone was potty-mouth I wish them continue to say funky or shifty talking until them be warned by forum moderators.

I mean, even if the truth is like what I said, there is a conspiracy behind many topics discussed in the forum extended consciousness and there and there, the people involved were not honest, I said these not because I believe these, nor because I believe what I said or what I thought, I said these just because they are some common thoughts I wish to put somewhere to see how some other people - better sane and wise people - would think about those thoughts, that' all.

If someone claimed something to show he/she has found some great mysteries regarding to consciousness - this still has ambiguous meanings - but I found his/her claims made him/her more and more like a fraud, if then I say I never feel disappointed then I'm lying. I did feel disappointed but I know I shouldn't hate frauds because of this.

Let everything continues to progress in their original way, let the natural be natural, and I just watch, think, speak, watch some others' responses - if any - and then loop the process, after all, all these won't really get me to the ultimate truth.

I don't condemn or refute or loathe or anything to any natural process, I just observe. Things including evil and good, including honesty and conspiracy, will all go on under the bid of deities, to show how splendidly intelligent deities are but at the same time also how crazy deities be.

Although I feel something like "flat earth" brings no abundance to world brainstorm, only make the human civilization and culture seem more barren and bleak, but if I constantly see these opinions I won't complain, I will only observe, OK I may say something about some nonsenses but my sayings are mainly served for my purpose to better observe like you use a probe to adjust the density distribution of nutrition liquid in a micro organism cultivation dish in a laboratory to better observe the tiny ecological environment's change and its influence on the experiment subject.
 
Has anyone noticed that Alex has just closed two more forum sections, "Why Science is Wrong" and "Extended Consciousness" ones?!

Now the only sections remaining functional are "Skeptiko Shows" and "Guidelines and Introductions". Nothing else.

Alex, if you are reading this - can you explain?

There are a lot of fake people out there, tarantula. Keep being yourself.
 
I have been throwing up and in bed for the last coupe of weeks so I don't know what the fuck is going on in Skeptiko, just wanted to stop by and say "Hello." Love you guys. Keep up the researching and being real.
 
bet those uk and different eu countries almond and soya drinks never tasted so good. water in the ingredients means tap water unless stated otherwise :) hmm
Just to clarify am not taking the mickey out of people that drink almond or soya drinks. Vanilla soya is one my favourites. Is the recycled English (or wherever) man's piss that puts me off
see post #56 in this thread
 
For sure, my friend! I think think one of the biggest conspiracies is how we place all these imaginary boundaries between ourselves, for nothing more than what we see on "maps." These lines are only drawn by interrogations, and amplified through the media into our imaginations, and enforced by subjugations. Always here for you.

I found this thread both sad and entertaining. It's a pity, I couldn't steer some of your members off to IGI which was dying. Here are some of the things IGI did : isgodimaginary.com.
-- set up simple set of rules Really basic. No spam. No insults.
-- ignore button hiding posts from annoying users <-- You clearly need this.
-- a "jail", restricted part of forum called the corner
-- moderators were volunteers. Alex doing all the moderation by himself? Insane. Not making moderators visible? Insane.
-- karma. You can like/dislike others posts.

Based on my current knowledge, I'm 100% materialist but I'm not an angry materialist. I certainly do

I agree with all that except being 100% materialist - but let's debate that on another thread - oh we don't have anywhere like that left with all the closures.

I went to your psciencequest forum. So, you can grab me there. I'm choosing my opponents. Trying to see how far before the axiomatic walls come down.

You shpuld check out IGI. Would love to interview Alex there but he'd have to

For moderation to work, you have to report problem posts.

I think the fundamental problem is that the podcast is offensive to atheists and Christians. Once you have alienated both of those groups you don't have a large enough pool of English speakers left from which to obtain forum posters.

I would agree, it just creates the opposite effect to people your insulting , in a not very thought out manner, and you get nasty push back.
 
I don't know where to post this, most forums are closed .................... so what's anybody's take on this Dr Joe Dispenza ? I just got his book becoming Supernatural
 
Trouble sleeping Christmas Morning. Sober, and a few years of not beating myself up. I done a lot of work encouraging others who’ve had trouble with beating up self (ie negative self talk). Very much a weakness that has become a strength.
Well, I just snapped out of a dark one a few minutes ago. I Found/got my strength back this time by talking to it like it was a demon:
“I’m a good person and I try my best, so fuck off and go seek healing! If you want to torment someone, find someone who’s hurting people. I’m not a bad person! I forgive myself! I’m proud of my heart and my efforts! Go humble Yourself and ask forgiveness. I don’t need torment and neither do you!”
So, Ya, that was intense.
I’m sharing this because normally I get hit with mild neg spells around holidays, but this one disguised itself and I let it run my head longer than I would normally take to snap out of it. I had to remind myself that the world is at war of a new kind. And my battle is in the Ether, as it has been for many years.
This instance strongly reminded me how many fellow travelers I have who also battle with negativity and I might be a help to check in and make sure they’re in a good place.
If anyone Here gets hit with a neg spell this holiday season, please tell it to Fuck Off and to seek its own healing and to seek love. If need be, tell it “Robbedigital said so.” I’ll be there in the spirit.
We are warriors who are meant to be alive in this time. And I’m grateful to be with YOU.
God bless you all on the forum and enjoy a blessed holiday. I say it’s deserved and You also can say it. As is love, forgiveness, self forgiveness, hope, and anticipation of good to come.
with love
Rob

This is inspiring, my friend! I completely understand the feeling of these negative thoughts. They can be quite overwhelming! The strange thing about attacking oneself is that it can be hard to tell when one is doing so. A subjective terror can set in that is hard to see beyond. There are sometimes that I wish nothing should exist; perpetuated by a feeling of absolute futility in any attempt to combat a downward spiral of churning apathy. I think that apathy is worse than hatred because it feels like falling through an endless pit without any kind of hope whatsoever, but hatred can spurn some kind of action. Both are equally bad states of mind, but I think that apathy is worse. I honestly fight with these kind of feelings nearly everyday.

Life is fascinating! It blows my mind how this subjective, tumultuous inner world can be taking place in juxtaposition to this seemingly wonderful, everyday facade with so many people. Spiritually, I think that I am somewhat like Iceland. Yes, it has good qualities to it, but the volcanic activity cannot be disguised! It seems that we are not much different than the earth itself. On the surface, we see oceans, beautiful foliage, flowers, bougainvillea, the canopy of the sky decorated by the stars, moon, and other celestial bodies....but underneath and boiling through....molten lava, pyroclastic flows, and just absolute inner hell trying to reach out to touch the stars.

I honestly believe that meditation is not right for those who are naturally good at meditation! I am that type of person who can literally go back into my thoughts for hours on end without moving, until they altogether cease to be my thoughts and become some kind of inner theater that operates like self perpetuating, free energy machine. For me, it is better to get to the gym and do something physical than entertain these kind of states of mind, existence, or whatever it is.

The deconstruction of one's paradigm is also a personal revelation. I love "The Science Channel," even though I think that much of its content is "mainstream" propaganda forcing it to be safe. Otherwise, it wouldn't be on TV. I witness all these scientists looking out into space, and theorizing about the origin of the universe. I have a deeper question: how can you tell when you began and where you came from? Yes, we have a birthdate, but does that really tell us where we began? Yes, we all have mothers that remember giving birth to us, but where is it that my thought process originated? Where was this "OK, I am here!" At what point did your "consciousness" arise? This is a harder question than figuring out where the universe came from, because it precedes that question. We had to become ourselves, looking into the sky, at some obscure light that looks unimpressive compared to the lights on my Christmas tree, then invent these infinite theories that really have nothing to do with anything.

Anyhow, wanted to let you know that I love you, brother, and keep up the good work! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Atone, long time no see! I think that we connected long before I got the fucking Corona virus in September, which inevitably knocked the entire month of September out of my life, but nevertheless I have recovered despite the loss of most of my taste and smell to this date. I hope that comes back altogether. Please pray to the great God, the other gods, and all demigods for me. If need be, can you put a bird in Jesus's ear to get my sense of taste back, as well? I would greatly appreciate it!

I audibled Joe Dispenza's book, "Breaking the Habit of Being You," and it was a wonderful listen. I think this book is great for people that have never self reflected or meditated. However, if you are well versed at meditation and self reflection, it might be better to put the book down and do something that you are interested in.

No disrespect to Dr. Dispenza, at all, because I found him through an MMA fighter who utilized his techniques to achieve success. I forgot the fighters name, but he raged about Dispenza on Matt Sera's podcast, so I had to check it out....especially after he destroyed the opponent in his next fight!

Definitely worth checking out! - But like I said, if you are well versed at meditation already, probably not worth a deep dive. Nevertheless, it is worth the quantum theories and so forth. Joe Dispenza's is an incredibly smart guy!
