I guess I see it differently. Andrew ticked me off from the beginning when to copped an attitude about charlie morley... as if there's some phony-baloney hierarchy among lucid dream teachers that I have to honor. he then ticked me off again with this condescending wokeness vibe, "gee you're so stupid... if you could just articulate intelligent questions for me to answer." ok, so I asked him some real direct questions like why the hell he fell for the Susan Blackmore phony Buddhist bullshit:
Near-Death Experience Skeptic Dr. Susan Blackmore ...
Dr. Caroline Watt Defends, There is Nothing ... - Skeptiko
...and no, I didn't wait much for his answer because there isn't one... and I didn't want to go down that path and waste that time because anyone like him who isn't able to see through that nonsense and is stuck in wokeness mode where their highest value is to "not judge" which means we don't employ enough discernment to understand when people are intentionally deceiving us in order to promote their own misguided agenda needs to check themselves.
I didn't go gunning for Andrew... I didn't know this interview would turn out this way, but I stand behind it. I do wish I could have shown a smidgen more more compassion and kindness and at the same time have to honor the opportunity to expose a subtle truth-seeking opp.
Your post-interview comments are helping me vicariously with my own anger, Alex. Many people quote the Buddha as saying--I never saw it myself but it's a valid point--that folks are playing in a house while ignoring that it is burning down. I would add that some are talking of dream yoga and nonduality and the like while ignoring the surrounding flames. And as I said in my first post here, they condescend to those who don't see things as they do, who don't join them in their blatant escapism. At one point Andrew actually said he'd like "your audience" to understand that...yada yada. Give me a frickin break.
SOS, Alex and others: I have no idea where the argument and evidence appeared that the NT is a Roman document. Probably in an interview before I started listening. Can someone please explicate this prima facie curious assertion for me? TY in advance.
