[mikey mikey]

What was that middle bit again?

[montag]

I don't do surveys..:p

[alrick888]

I was waiting for the Miranda statement: "You have the right to remain silent."

:D

[alrick888]

But, in a slightly more serious vein, I think you are coming at this from the wrong end. I think you should start with a specific event or person, and then try the mainstream explanation and see if it fits, or if there are some lacunas.

That is the natural progression. I think there are very few who start out believing statements such as you posted. At some point, people find that in some cases there really are no other explanations for certain phenomena.

[krakhead]

tl;dr

[friendsinthesky]

I do not accept the word "believe".

[alzee]

lol, Mason market-research.

ps: tl;dr

[empyblessing]

tl;dr :p

[duckingdafta]

I'll just ask 3 Q's
Where's your answers?..
What do YOU believe?...
is this just information gathering?

[coshh]

I'll just ask 3 Q's
Where's your answers?..
What do YOU believe?...
is this just information gathering?

You want my answers? OK, see the bottom of this post. Not sure you'll bother reading it, but the lack of listeners never stopped me yapping about myself before.
What do I believe? Ooooh many things. I find I often agree with G.K.Chesterton so thats a place you could start if you are genuinely interested. Other than that? I believe the medieval days were the high-point of 'western' thought and social technology. I'm a bit of a luddite at times but I try not to be. Oh and of course... Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem, Creatorem caeli et terrae. Et in Iesum Christum, Filium eius unicum, Dominum nostrum, qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto, natus ex Maria Virgine, passus sub Pontio Pilato, crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus, descendit ad inferos, tertia die resurrexit a mortuis, ascendit ad caelos, sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris omnipotentis, inde venturus est iudicare vivos et mortuos. Credo in Spiritum Sanctum, sanctam Ecclesiam Catholicam, sanctorum communionem, remissionem peccatorum, carnis resurrectionem, vitam aeternam. Amen. :p

Is this just an information gathering exercise? Um... my intention was to find out how many people ascribe to the most 'out there' beliefs (the ones I saw as such, this is an entirely personal opinion) and how many only took an interest in the more 'credible' ones. I wanted to know basically if you lot really were as 'mad as all that'. :p
Course now I filled it in I feel a bit silly because I answered yes or maybe to way more than I expected...

1. Do you believe that there is an international conspiracy which is more than just the natural tendency of the rich and powerful to work together in their own self-interests and class interests? Maybe.

2. Do you believe any such conspiracy if it exists to have existed for hundreds of years? Maybe

3. Thousands of years? Probably not (not if it is a human conspiracy, but perhaps in the religious sense)

4. Tens of thousands of years or more? Same answer as for 3.

5. Do you believe any such conspiracy to have the aid of otherworldly powers, either spirits, aliens, demons or gods? Maybe.

6. Do you believe such otherworldly powers to exist and travel in not only in the "dimensions" experienced by humans in everyday life but also additional dimensions? No, I do not think spiritual beings exist in 'space' at all

7. Do you believe that any conspiracy which may have occurred involves not just collaboration with otherworldly powers but the active involvement or simple following of an otherworldly interest, will or agenda? Perhaps - I actually find the concept of a conspiracy of spirit much more plausible than a conspiracy of men - but I personally wouldn't use the term 'conspiracy' for it.

8. Do you believe human beings in positions of power and influence are subject to immoral indoctrination (immoral either due to extent or due to content)? Yes

9. Routinely? No

10. Do you believe ordinary people of no special power or influence are subject to immoral indoctrination? No

17. Do you believe they have manipulated human DNA in order to create a slave race? No

18. Do you believe that they manipulated human DNA for any other reason? No

19. Do you believe that bloodlines can make someone more or less susceptible to control by aliens, spirits or demons? Maybe, the possibility of a generational curse might be considered for instance - if curses can work, generational ones can, and if they can then they can weaken a whole line in the face of evil not just an individual

20. Do you believe that powerful people deliberately control breeding for the purposes of maintaining bloodlines which are easily controlled by aliens, spirits or demons? No

21. Do you believe channeling can be a valid source of information? Not at all, I believe it is consistently a source of unreliable information and occasionally it can be outright malific information often disguised as something sweet

22. Do you believe organisations and movements apparently opposed to one another such as Opus Dei and the Freemasons are in reality working toward the same goals and that the heads or top layers of these organisations are aware of this? No

23. Do you believe that feminine and masculine energy balance is important in the world and that the powers that be are consciously working to disrupt them? Maybe

24. In a masculine direction? Not sure

25. In a feminine direction? Not sure

26. Do you believe the powers that be deliberately encourage sexual confusion in order to attain goals which go beyond the mere selling of products? I doubt it

27. Do you believe some religions are nothing but a means of negatively controlling people to keep them enslaved? I can't think of any that I would consider are nothing but that, but perhaps in some cases that might be the primary effect.

28. All organised religion? No

29. All religion even the apparently disorganised? No

30. Do you believe that the world as experienced is an illusion, empty of real meaning or non-existent? No

31. Do you believe that through some kind of "experience" one can gain esoteric knowledge which cannot be communicated to others and is significant or of great import? Maybe but I am suspicious of esoteric knowledge

32. Is of the most significant and greatest import? No

33. Do you believe that UFO's have been abducting human beings? I cannot say no without doubting a dear friend, but... I find it very hard to believe

34. If so are they manned by aliens? No

35. Humans from the military? Or some kind of service at least... Possibly

36. Other humans? Possibly

37. All three? No

38. Do you believe satanic cults exist on a grand scale and reach into the upper echelons of society, not including ToS or CoS? No

39. Do you believe these cults engage in ritual human sacrifice, human breeding programs, kidnapping, child sex slavery, adult sex slavery and/or cannibalism? No - I believe there are criminal rings that do many of those things, but I do not believe they are on anything like the scale suggested by some.

40. Do you believe that despite their public face ToS or the CoS engage in any of those mentioned activities? I doubt it.

41. Do you believe reality is entirely subjective and under the control of ones mind? No

42. Do you believe this has a bearing on whether or not one ought to struggle against TPTB? N/A

43. Do you think the best way to react to oppression and exploitation by the powerful is to forgive and love them? Yes

44. To attack them? Best way? No. But it is a means and perhaps at times the ends justify it, perhaps.

45. To develop parallel systems which do not rely on their power? Yes

46. Do you believe that flouridated water is a significant danger? No

47. Do you believe that mercury fillings are a significant danger? No, but at the same time I have avoided getting them, at some expense, just in case.

48. Do you believe that some day the state will mandate the microchipping of the population? I think it unlikely but then I probably would have thought everyone having a mobile phone was unlikely 20 years ago. Who knows how 'normal' it might feel to people to expect everyone to be microchipped in a few decades.

49. Do you believe you are under human surveillance at this point in time (i.e. not just surveillance by electronic equipment but also by human beings observing recordings etc)? No

50. Do you believe all members of parliament are "in on" any conspiracy? No

51. All members of the government/cabinet? No

52. All members of the shadow cabinet? No

53. Do you believe that Jewish leaders or cultural leaders are involved in or the orchestraters of a conspiracy? Some perhaps.

54. All Jewish people? No

55. Do you believe fear or negative emotions are the cause of most bad events? No

56. Do you believe that effective alternative therapies have been deliberately suppressed in order that drug companies can make more profits? No, I believe any effective alternative therapies would be exploited by drug companies to make more profits. I also think that 'alternative' medicine industry is just as exploitative as the main drug industry.

57. To keep people sick so they are less able to resist TPTB? No

58. Do you believe conventional medicine is often a cause of more disease than it is a cure or treatment? No

59. Always toxic and to be avoided? No

60. Do you believe that overpopulation is a myth? No

61. Do you believe that technology which would end scarcity is being suppressed? No. Whichever way you look at it there is only so much land on the earth unless you want to move the water in the sea around to make more land, but I am actively opposed to such extreme alterations of the natural environment by man because whenever we change things we overlook a lot of shit that nature was managing to deal with by equilibrium without us and screw things up.

62. In order to keep prices artificially high? No

63. In order to keep people enslaved? No

64. Do you believe in global warming? Yes

65. Do you believe global warming is man made? Probably

66. Do you believe global warming is being induced by aliens who desire a higher baseline temperature? No

67. Do you believe global warming is a myth used by TPTB for malicious purposes? Although it is occurring, it is also being misused by some people to attain their goals which really have nothing to do with it.

68. Do you believe the owners/high level editors of the 'mainstream media' is all 'in on' any agenda? No

69. The low level editors? No

70. Ground level journalists, reporters and researchers? No

71. Do you believe the internet being a military technology is inherently suspect? No

72. Do you believe residual pesticides on food are a significant danger? Don't think so but never looked into it.

73. Do you believe in overfishing? Yes

74. Do you believe that 'dimensions' have something to do with 'vibration' or 'vibrational levels'? No

75. Do you believe 'dimensions' can be 'higher' or 'lower' in any objective sense? No

76. Do you believe 'dimensions' have anything to do with ones spiritual state? No

77. Do you believe 9/11 was an inside job? Only in the sense that the US government trained the attackers and then ignored the impending signs of attack. Not in the sense of actively planning and carrying it out.

78. Do you believe a 'no-planes' theory? Absolutely not.

79. Do you believe that the reason for the Iraq war was only about control of resources? No

80. Only about economic factors (including resource control and feeding the military industrial complex)? No

81. Only about ideological or religious factors? No

82. Principally about feeding the lust for pain, suffering and blood of alien, demonic or inhuman entities? No

83. Principally about feeding the lust for pain, suffering and blood of psychopathic human beings? No

84. Do you believe that we are in the Kali Yuga? I used to, but the whole 'cyclical time' thing is something I've changed my mind about now.

85. Do you believe that a "cosmic," "vibrational" or "planetary" 'shift' of some kind is going to occur in the near future? No

86. Do you believe 2012 is a significant year? No

87. Do you believe in 'indigo' children? No

88. Do you believe humans have many 'spiritual' or 'magical' powers which have been suppressed by TPTB? No - although if there are, then that's one good thing they did. 'Magical' powers are a distraction, you'd get as frustrated with being able to say, move objects with your mind, as you do not with being able to move them with your hands - it will never be enough when you go down that route, you'll always find there is some power you lack that you must lay claim to - really you should not take for granted just how amazing it is that you can do the things you can do now, or how tremendous your current capacities really are.

89. Do you believe you are more 'awake' than most other people? No, but I do think that I consider the consequences of things and the conclusions of the apparent to a greater extent than many people. As much as I hate to say this I think its probably because many people are less intelligent than me. I don't hate them for it or resent them or look down on them - but I can't deny getting frustrated with them sometimes. My dad is always trying to get me to feel elitist about it, but he is wrong.

90. Do you believe the main purpose and/or effect of the education system is to make people compliant, conformist or submissive? No. I think mostly the education system exists as a babysitting service so that both parents can work.

91. Do you believe that TPTB deliberately create problems so that they can then impose solutions which would otherwise be unpopular? No

92. Do you believe this is their main way of operating? No

93. Do you believe anti-drug laws exist for the primary purpose of preventing people experiencing the illuminating or mind expanding effects of drugs? No

94. Do you believe anti-drug laws exist for the primary purpose of encouraging the drug trade in order to addict people to drugs and keep them subdued and compliant or too crazy to care? No

95. Do you believe that a world where everyone is completely free to do whatever they can imagine is possible and desirable? No - by this I mean a world where, because I can imagine conquering your lands and slaughtering your women without having any negative consequences for me occur, doesn't mean that I should get to do that

96. Do you believe that evil is basically equatable with negative emotions or sensations? No

97. Do you believe that all major civilisations known to history were influenced by or ruled by aliens, alien hybrids or demon/spirit possessed people? No

98. Do you believe it would be possible to eradicate war right now if it was not in the agenda of TPTB to retain it? No

99. Do you believe it would be possible to eradicate disease now if it was not in the agenda of TPTB to retain it? No

100. Do you believe that the primary goal of the European, North American, Chinese, Australasian and Japanese governments is consolidation into a one world government with a one world religion? No, the primary goal of all these is to consolidate the world into a giant empire with them at the top, playing the "one world lets be friends" game is the way they hope to achieve it because if they did it by conquest they'd risk nuclear war.

[duckingdafta]

This is going to take some time, and I'm just about to set off to Hull.. so I'll print it so read and sort some answers out..
Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem, Creatorem caeli et terrae.
Et in Iesum Christum, Filium eius unicum, Dominum nostrum, qui
conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto, natus ex Maria Virgine, passus sub Pontio
Pilato, crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus, descendit ad inferos, tertia die
resurrexit a mortuis, ascendit ad caelos, sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris
omnipotentis, inde venturus est iudicare vivos et mortuos.
Credo in Spiritum Sanctum, sanctam Ecclesiam catholicam, sanctorum
communionem, remissionem peccatorum, carnis resurrectionem, vitam
aeternam. Amen
don't read Latin..or understand Apostolorum or Rosary in Latin.. my education never went beyond children's homes..so none after 12.

Is it this?

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

[drael]

Too long. Make a shorter one, ill do it..

[coshh]

Yes duckingdafta that it is.

Latin is not so hard, lots of the words have been stolen by English anyway. I have never been formally taught Latin (well ok, for 3 days I have been but 3 days to learn a language hardly counts) but I can work out almost all those words either from English or Cymraeg.

33. Do you believe that UFO's have been abducting human beings? I cannot say no without doubting a dear friend, but... I find it very hard to believe

34. If so are they manned by aliens? No

35. Humans from the military? Or some kind of service at least... Possibly

36. Other humans? Possibly

37. All three? No

38. Do you believe satanic cults exist on a grand scale and reach into the upper echelons of society, not including ToS or CoS? No

39. Do you believe these cults engage in ritual human sacrifice, human breeding programs, kidnapping, child sex slavery, adult sex slavery and/or cannibalism? No - I believe there are criminal rings that do many of those things, but I do not believe they are on anything like the scale suggested by some.

40. Do you believe that despite their public face ToS or the CoS engage in any of those mentioned activities? I doubt it.

41. Do you believe reality is entirely subjective and under the control of ones mind? No

42. Do you believe this has a bearing on whether or not one ought to struggle against TPTB? N/A

43. Do you think the best way to react to oppression and exploitation by the powerful is to forgive and love them? Yes

44. To attack them? Best way? No. But it is a means and perhaps at times the ends justify it, perhaps.

45. To develop parallel systems which do not rely on their power? Yes

46. Do you believe that flouridated water is a significant danger? No

47. Do you believe that mercury fillings are a significant danger? No, but at the same time I have avoided getting them, at some expense, just in case.

48. Do you believe that some day the state will mandate the microchipping of the population? I think it unlikely but then I probably would have thought everyone having a mobile phone was unlikely 20 years ago. Who knows how 'normal' it might feel to people to expect everyone to be microchipped in a few decades.

49. Do you believe you are under human surveillance at this point in time (i.e. not just surveillance by electronic equipment but also by human beings observing recordings etc)? No

51. All members of the government/cabinet? No

52. All members of the shadow cabinet? No

53. Do you believe that Jewish leaders or cultural leaders are involved in or the orchestraters of a conspiracy? Some perhaps.

54. All Jewish people? No

55. Do you believe fear or negative emotions are the cause of most bad events? No

56. Do you believe that effective alternative therapies have been deliberately suppressed in order that drug companies can make more profits? No, I believe any effective alternative therapies would be exploited by drug companies to make more profits. I also think that 'alternative' medicine industry is just as exploitative as the main drug industry.

57. To keep people sick so they are less able to resist TPTB? No

58. Do you believe conventional medicine is often a cause of more disease than it is a cure or treatment? No

59. Always toxic and to be avoided? No

60. Do you believe that overpopulation is a myth? No

61. Do you believe that technology which would end scarcity is being suppressed? No. Whichever way you look at it there is only so much land on the earth unless you want to move the water in the sea around to make more land, but I am actively opposed to such extreme alterations of the natural environment by man because whenever we change things we overlook a lot of shit that nature was managing to deal with by equilibrium without us and screw things up.

62. In order to keep prices artificially high? No

63. In order to keep people enslaved? No

64. Do you believe in global warming? Yes

65. Do you believe global warming is man made? Probably

66. Do you believe global warming is being induced by aliens who desire a higher baseline temperature? No

67. Do you believe global warming is a myth used by TPTB for malicious purposes? Although it is occurring, it is also being misused by some people to attain their goals which really have nothing to do with it.

68. Do you believe the owners/high level editors of the 'mainstream media' is all 'in on' any agenda? No

69. The low level editors? No

70. Ground level journalists, reporters and researchers? No

71. Do you believe the internet being a military technology is inherently suspect? No

72. Do you believe residual pesticides on food are a significant danger? Don't think so but never looked into it.

73. Do you believe in overfishing? Yes

74. Do you believe that 'dimensions' have something to do with 'vibration' or 'vibrational levels'? No

75. Do you believe 'dimensions' can be 'higher' or 'lower' in any objective sense? No

76. Do you believe 'dimensions' have anything to do with ones spiritual state? No

77. Do you believe 9/11 was an inside job? Only in the sense that the US government trained the attackers and then ignored the impending signs of attack. Not in the sense of actively planning and carrying it out.

78. Do you believe a 'no-planes' theory? Absolutely not.

79. Do you believe that the reason for the Iraq war was only about control of resources? No

80. Only about economic factors (including resource control and feeding the military industrial complex)? No

81. Only about ideological or religious factors? No

82. Principally about feeding the lust for pain, suffering and blood of alien, demonic or inhuman entities? No

83. Principally about feeding the lust for pain, suffering and blood of psychopathic human beings? No

84. Do you believe that we are in the Kali Yuga? I used to, but the whole 'cyclical time' thing is something I've changed my mind about now.

85. Do you believe that a "cosmic," "vibrational" or "planetary" 'shift' of some kind is going to occur in the near future? No

86. Do you believe 2012 is a significant year? No

87. Do you believe in 'indigo' children? No

88. Do you believe humans have many 'spiritual' or 'magical' powers which have been suppressed by TPTB? No - although if there are, then that's one good thing they did. 'Magical' powers are a distraction, you'd get as frustrated with being able to say, move objects with your mind, as you do not with being able to move them with your hands - it will never be enough when you go down that route, you'll always find there is some power you lack that you must lay claim to - really you should not take for granted just how amazing it is that you can do the things you can do now, or how tremendous your current capacities really are.

89. Do you believe you are more 'awake' than most other people? No, but I do think that I consider the consequences of things and the conclusions of the apparent to a greater extent than many people. As much as I hate to say this I think its probably because many people are less intelligent than me. I don't hate them for it or resent them or look down on them - but I can't deny getting frustrated with them sometimes. My dad is always trying to get me to feel elitist about it, but he is wrong.

90. Do you believe the main purpose and/or effect of the education system is to make people compliant, conformist or submissive? No. I think mostly the education system exists as a babysitting service so that both parents can work.

91. Do you believe that TPTB deliberately create problems so that they can then impose solutions which would otherwise be unpopular? No

92. Do you believe this is their main way of operating? No

93. Do you believe anti-drug laws exist for the primary purpose of preventing people experiencing the illuminating or mind expanding effects of drugs? No

94. Do you believe anti-drug laws exist for the primary purpose of encouraging the drug trade in order to addict people to drugs and keep them subdued and compliant or too crazy to care? No

95. Do you believe that a world where everyone is completely free to do whatever they can imagine is possible and desirable? No - by this I mean a world where, because I can imagine conquering your lands and slaughtering your women without having any negative consequences for me occur, doesn't mean that I should get to do that

96. Do you believe that evil is basically equatable with negative emotions or sensations? No

97. Do you believe that all major civilisations known to history were influenced by or ruled by aliens, alien hybrids or demon/spirit possessed people? No

98. Do you believe it would be possible to eradicate war right now if it was not in the agenda of TPTB to retain it? No

99. Do you believe it would be possible to eradicate disease now if it was not in the agenda of TPTB to retain it? No

100. Do you believe that the primary goal of the European, North American, Chinese, Australasian and Japanese governments is consolidation into a one world government with a one world religion? No, the primary goal of all these is to consolidate the world into a giant empire with them at the top, playing the "one world lets be friends" game is the way they hope to achieve it because if they did it by conquest they'd risk nuclear war.

Phew! Thanks for taking the time to answer all those questions.. I appreciate your honesty. It's also good to see where other folk are coming from; there's so much diversity on this board. It's official though - - you and I are like chalk and cheese! My answers are so different to yours.. that's cool though, it would be very dull if we were all on the same page. I also remember you saying you were only 22? I'm more than double your age.. no doubt, your answers would be very different if you'd been on this planet an extra 25 years, as mine would have been at your age.

Regarding this bit:

'As much as I hate to say this I think its probably because many people are less intelligent than me. I don't hate them for it or resent them or look down on them - but I can't deny getting frustrated with them sometimes. My dad is always trying to get me to feel elitist about it, but he is wrong.'

Intelligence is all well and good, but without a good measure of common sense to partner it.. it's worthless. I'm not insinuating you lack common sense, just giving my opinion. Some of the wisest people I have ever met, have been what many would label - academically dumb.

Absolutely. I am NOT an elitist. Doesn't mean I can't be honest about my capacities, we all have different talents.

[bernardsmith]

Absolutely. I am NOT an elitist. Doesn't mean I can't be honest about my capacities, we all have different talents.

You do come across as very pretentious, annoying and ego-driven though.

[kweli]

Absolutely. I am NOT an elitist. Doesn't mean I can't be honest about my capacities, we all have different talents.

Indeed we do.. all I'm saying is - give me a person with life experience & common sense over an intellectual bore anyday. Intelligence and how we measure it.. needs a serious rethink methinks.

[coshh]

You do come across as very pretentious, annoying and ego-driven though.How would you suggest I remedy this?

[kweli]

How would you suggest I remedy this?

Hmm.. a dash of modesty? a drizzle of humility?

[coshh]

Hmm.. a dash of modesty? a drizzle of humility?
What does that entail? I try very hard to become more humble so I obviously I am doing it wrong. Help me then.

[bernardsmith]

Hmm.. a dash of modesty? a drizzle of humility?

And, as one of the previous posters stated, an acknowledgement that intelligence alone is worthless. Human logic is incapable of grasping the vast complexity and infinite nature of possibility. It is for this reason that an arrogant, all-knowing attitude makes me cringe with contempt, especially when it is used purely as a means of elevating ones sense of self...

As Socrates is reported to have said:

"True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing."

[kweli]

What does that entail? I try very hard to become more humble so I obviously I am doing it wrong. Help me then.

It's simple really Coshh, when you feel the urge to blow your own trumpet.. resist the urge. Try to see everyone as your equal - easier said than done, I know.

Then again, not all people see humility & modesty as virtues; depends on your thinking.

Edit: Just wanted to add - I don't have a problem with how you express yourself.

I don't actually think I know everything... but I do not like it when people state their beliefs without conviction, so I try and always have conviction even if it is true that I may be wrong. What makes me cringe is when people disclaimer everything that comes out of their mouths as though they didn't believe the things they believed.

There's nothing wrong with having conviction - In fact, it's a quality that I admire. But witnessing the self-preservation of the ego in action is scorn-inducing.

The ego strives for a sense of self-importance and self-righteousness - but in the face of the magnitude of existence, and the grandness of 'all-that-is', the ego shrivels with inadequacy...

I think it's vital to have a sense of humility, otherwise the ego naturally tends to confuse any genuine endeavor for unbiased knowledge...

[coshh]

but in the face of the magnitude of existence, and the grandness of 'all-that-is', the ego shrivels with inadequacy...Totally. You won't find me arguing with that.

Kindness though would be to tell me how to be humble at the same time as chastising me for not being.

[bernardsmith]

Totally. You won't find me arguing with that.

It's simple - Just don't be arrogant about your perceived sense of self-importance...

I just think it's important to recognise that the intellect alone is not the pinnacle and primary source of all human achievement and progress. This is where mainstream, left-brain 'scientific materialist' types go wrong, and why I generally find them so contemptible...

[noobcybot]

I used to think it was just a bunch of high level rich back scratchers. But without the rest of the story right up to differant dimensions, realitities and and reptilains many pieces of the puzzle are missing.

[coshh]

It's simple - Just don't be arrogant about your perceived sense of self-importance...That's just a rewording. How do you do it though? I try not to be arrogant and still am so there must be more to it.

I just think it's important to recognise that the intellect alone is not the pinnacle and primary source of all human achievement and progress.I totally agree. In fact I believe that without God, intellect is completely useless. I would rather be a stupid person with faith than the most intelligent person in the world with none. This is where mainstream, left-brain 'scientific materialist' types go wrong, and why I generally find them so contemptible...Although I am not a scientific-materialist, do you not think that this contempt of them is just as arrogant as many of my positions?

[bernardsmith]

Although I am not a scientific-materialist, do you not think that this contempt of them is just as arrogant as many of my positions?

My contempt does not stem from a need to feed my ego's appetite, but from a genuine desire to see humanity live up to and realise it's true potential. This kind of thinking is limiting, and intentionally self-delusional. It's part of the reason that we don't soar to the potential that we are capable of, and also serves to create the kind mental soil that is fertile for the manipulation of the many by the few (I.e. A society dominated by pure left-brain thinkers)...

I do not see the difference (well there is a difference in kind but not in essence) between that and my own internal reasoning for my fear or dislike of certain beliefs. How do you know you are not as wrong about yourself as you feel I am about myself?
