1854- In Western culture particularly... generations have been inculcated to believe that somehow homo sapiens exists APART from the natural order and that their inherited innate intuitive inclinations, evolved from dynamic circumstances promoting species survival is somehow 'debased' and 'sinful'.
While we are told our 'free will' makes us 'unique' BUT ONLY within the context of the Creator's omniscient parameters.
So, One must question, in effect "why" would a divine 'omniscience' create ANY circumstance which displeased them? Like creating a pebble in One's OWN shoe then complaining how much it pained them?
A 'gratuitious' (needless) calamity---
MUCH of Western religion's doctrines are underpinned in the inferred presumption that ANYTHING 'pleasing' in THIS World's reality is both 'sinful' and a hinderance to expedited 'graced' reunification to the creating Divinity.
Much of this couched in HEAVILY-abridged alleged 'divine ancient prophecy'. They conveniently OVERLOOK 'WHOM' ordained that humans find certain stimuli would be perceived as 'pleasing'.
(TRAINS do NOT run where their owner's have NOT lain tracks. And NOT without the Creator's purpose and consent.)
In pre-Christian cultures, humans understood and reveled in the benefits of symbiotic harmony with the ordained Creation; NOT 'warping' such participation. Self-perceived physical 'maturation' was broken into only FOUR aspects. Infancy, .. maid/youth, ... maiden/warrior, ... crone/statesman-sage-elder.
There existed NO communally-imposed 'age of consent'~ 'Christian' doctrine espouses "The Lord is my Shepard" Beware the superficial metaphor!
Does history EVER record ANY culture wherein a commercial herdsman kept livestock as PETS?
Their innate lactations is sublimated and exploited. As is their growth of wool & hides... Their reproduction is manipulated. The 'unsaleable' are culled for meat & bone. Their offspring 'graded'
and become negotiably barterable. The 'flock' are marshalled by 'sheepdog' guardians, themselves but mercenary 'wolves' which is 'why' the sheep obey them. Those 'guardians' themselves are NOT vegan.
Hypocrisy & Cognitive Dissonance.~0|00|1 - That a person's emotional state of mind has absolutely no effect on the laws of causality. In other words staying positive doesn't influence a positive outcome. Being negative doesn't guarantee that you will end up in failure. It is simple cause and effect. You cut through a tree, and the effect is the tree falls down. It doesn't matter what your emotional state of mind was when you were doing it. Your last boyfriend dumped you and you're upset and you think that if you were to be more positive that it never would have happened in the first place. It doesn't work like that. You can't go back and change time, at least not with the technology that we currently possess. Even if you could it would violate the laws of nature because you would not occupy the same timeline. As a result you would meet an alternative you that made the choice that you didn't as a result of entering that parallel reality. There can be no more than one you in the universe. Metaphysical debates aside... The law of causality is very clear on this topic. I don't care how much you want to argue the fact but your emotional state does not affect what will happen as a result of what you do. That's the end of it it has been proven. If you want to argue the topic then look it up for yourself. Telling yourself otherwise is just an excuse to deal with situations and outcomes that you don't have complete control over. It's like the tree thinking that maybe if it just grew a little bit thicker instead of taller that when you took the chainsaw to it, it wouldn't have fallen down. It doesn't work like that.0|10|0
- That there are way too many people in the world to be sustainable.
I mean, yes, theoretically, it's possible to sustain 10 billion people without destroying our environment, but practically? No. The more people we have, the higher the standard of living, the worse the problem gets. Right now our resource overshoot is almost two Earths. And it keeps getting worse.
We have three choices:
1. drastically reduce the number of children we have, all around the world. Create incentives to have fewer children, make it absolutely unacceptable to have more than 2 kids, and lower the populate down under about 2 billion as fast as possible
2. reduce the standard of living drastically in all first-world nations
3. ignore the problem, keep having more kids, and cause a mass extinction and horrible violence down the road as we reap what we're sowing with climate change
Sadly, I see us heading full-speed toward option 3.0|00|0 - This is a brutal one. It's something that no one will tell you, but everyone needs to take to heart, understand, and eventually embrace.
Absolutely no one gives a fuck about your ambition; ambition is like a puddle of gasoline. It doesn't impress anyone. That boss you're trying to impress couldn't care less that you have dreams. The boss is trying to get as much as they can from you while paying as little as possible; they have an interest in keeping you where you are. Your friends and family want you to succeed, but they aren't going to pay you. Everyone wants to make it to the top, that's not going to compel anyone to do anything for you.
The ONLY thing that will ever impress anyone is good implementation of the product you are trying to sell.2|10|0 - The True Creator, the ONE TRUE GOD, is the eternally righteous judge, and He defines what is good and evil and Truth. Humans do not get to make up their own definition of good, evil, or Truth. That comes from God, and any false definition of those things is akin to blasphemy or false prophecy.
"Subjective Truth/Subjective Morality" is the biggest lie circulating among humans today, and leads to all other sins. When you reject reality and substitute your own reality, then you reject God and you become a willful sinner.0|11|0 - That truth and knowledge are; to an extent, ambiguous. That it is very rare that people take the time or even have access to account for all the information and draw conclusions about situations, facts, perceptions etc.
Something that's very real to you,
in someone else's perspective the reality of that thing could be completely different and even though we may want to call that person crazy or lazy or over achieving etc, their reality could be something you are unable or unwilling to anticipate.0|10|0 - Life on earth does not revolve around humanity, nor is any organism on the planet entitled to safety, survival, or any sort of positive outcome.
And that sucks, I wish we were, don’t get me wrong, but that’s what nature is trying to dictate to us, and nature is our true king.0|00|0 - That racism is never gone stop until , everyone does something about , like people with white privilege they not gone do something because they gain something from racism and stuff , and the truth is never gone come out , this why activists etc get killed for telling facts and the truth0|00|0
- I think everyone has more than one but here's the deal if they say it out loud then you have to own it and once that happens you have to live it or I guess not that is the truth every for some reason accepts and with that they stand still or take another path0|00|0
- that covid is not a disease worse than swine flu bird flu, SARS and MERS. the only difference is that now the media has the microscope on that disease, ignoring everything else and that's the only reason it looks so dangerous.
if we had looked at that disease with comparable statistics and with comparable methods of detection, it wouldn't have gotten a big deal.0|00|0also: i don't understand why they made virologists the experts on that field. that's like making a neuro sycientist the expert on social phenomena. it's not their level of expertise.
epidemiologists and social scientists would be the experts here.I hear what your saying the Media and how it manipulates the massive amount of people who fall for the paid for rhetoric. Pushing the narrative in the direction that whom ever has control wants it to go. I understand what you mean when you compare Covid 19 to things like the Flu SARS and MERS. Having been a Medic who worked in the ER and family practice I just want to say I agree with you on some points. I guess it just depends on what you mean by worse. I personally would rather have covid 19 vs MERS or SARS. Because your right its not as deadly as those two when you break down the ratio of deaths to infected. The only thing you might consider is that even though its not as deadly and its numbers on the surface are in line with a very bad flu season's death toll we have to understand why it is Dangerous. Its actually much more dangerous than all of those right now. The real reasons aside from the media creating a mass hysterical event is that in the begining we didn't fully understand what we were facing and the fact that it is highly contagious coupled with the fact that people that died didn't die immediately. In fact it spread so fast and since it wasn't as deadly as some of the others it burned through so many resources in the process. A lot of people rate the Danger of a pandemic on how deadly it is or how fast it kills and I understand why but people that get a illness and die fast or have a higher infection to death ratio is scary the fact that they do die means they aren't walking around infecting the masses because the real danger comes when we are out of supplies and have no room to treat people who have accidents heart attacks other illnesses etc... You think the standard of care was bad before imagine what its like right now with everyone spread thin overworked. I just hope we are better prepared to handle the next one because there will be another one.
@virtue2332 if we'd still go by the definition of "pandemic" from before 2012, this wouldn't even be a pandemic.
i know it is a deadly disease and that we should especially protect the elderly from it, cause those are the ones that die to it. the number of people under 40 that died to it is a two figure number in my country...
i understand that the "speed of the spread" is an aspect that makes a disease more dangerous but what i am critiquing is that we actually after over one year of that thing being around still do not have any comparable statistics. after a year, we still avoid distinguishing those that died "with" the disease from those that died "to" that disease.
we have started taking PCR tests as proof for infection (which is bullshit as even the inventor of the PCR method says). We've gone as far as having people post mortum tested with pcr and then declared "pcr death" or people going to hospital for completely different things, having a positive pcr test and then being treated like covid19 patient even despite them having no symptoms of that whatsoever.
i'm not saying this disease is to be ignored. but what i am saying is that this lockdown and legally enforced public mask wearing is completely overkill, which causes more deaths than covid.
and you know we do have excess mortality globally... but at least in germany and most countries in Europe, the deaths of the annual flu wave (of which covid19 is a part), do not exceed previous years. meanwhile "older" people don't dare to go to hospitals anymore. we have 90% less preventative heart and cancer measures. people are dying due to the shit we're doing for covid. and it's more people dying because of the shit we do than because of covid...
if we just had lived our lives as we always did without the extreme global media pandemic, we wouldn't even have noticed... like the flu wave in 2018, which was the worst in 30 years (even worse than the 2020 one in my country) but they only noticed in hindsight.
- Show All Show Less
people post mortum being declared as covid death* i can't even begin to point out all the wrong shit that's going on. a lot of the stuff they said were straight up lies. for example the claim that you can be infectious without having any symptoms was a straight up lie. people still believe that stuff.
You bring up some good points. I believe it comes down to ineffective leadership and politics where I'm from in the US and the media not being held accountable for the damage they cause when they over sensationalized coverage for views or even worse when they do it push forward a specific political agenda under the guise of news. They should always remain neutral and focus on facts vs sensationalism we are all human and sometimes get it wrong but not taking responsibility makes it so much worse in the long run because it leaves us where a lot of us are now frustrated looking for the real answers. For me I guess it boils down to what I have actual training on. Being a military trained medic assigned to a nuclear biological chemical warfare team I can only speak from my perspective based on training I would assume is outdated now since it occurred from 95- 99 at a base i was stationed at in Japan. We trained on scenarios that were similar to what we experienced last year. The only difference we trained as if it was an actual attack. This was years ago and the threat was obviously serious enough that I was pulled away from my job as a medic in family practice and sent out to various places practice different scenarios. We had to be packed and ready for deployment at any time. Grab and go. You think mandatory face mask suck you should have seen the gear i had to wear.
Basically without getting to in depth the goal was to set up a designated safe zone that we could begin to collect intel and attempt to isolate or contain the threat. In that environment you work under an assume everyone is infected until they under go testing and mandatory isolation and can be upgraded to the clean zone. Given how strict and stringent the training was I imagine a lot of money and research was put into it. I understand this is a different scenario but what makes me nervous is when people say things like this whole thing is a hoax or not real and I know that's not what your saying but I hope people will understand that the threat is known its serious and real. People need to take a step back and do what we are doing communicating trying to educate ourselves and consider what we did and could have done better. We obviously can't just leave it in the hands of the media or politicians. I hope we all come out of this more aware of what's possible and use the info learned to be more educated and prepared for the next time because it will come I just hope its natural and not a deliberate attack but more importantly we should share information and work together vs listening to rhetoric and acting on impulse.
@virtue2332 first off, i wanna thank you for thank you for actually listening and discussing in a respectfull manner. the extreme hygiene shit you had to go through as a worker in that profession is understandable only up to a certain point. i'd say up to march 2020, when we basically knew that only elderly are dying from it and asymptomatic infection was not a thing. those extreme hygiene measures was actually what cause that caused a shortage of supplies and personell that made the situation even worse. plus the avoidance of actually obducting people prevented us from learning about the "actual" danger level... that's like shooting the health industry in the knee and then complaining that it's not running anymore. i mean the irrational fear trickeled down to medical doctors, who should have known better...
and i absolutely agree with you. mers and sars were way more terrible diseases with way lower chances of survival. and i would claim that the infection rates mostly came from the extreme testing numbers, as many publications only now starting to critique that the extreme amount of testing skewed the infection numbers, when i was basically screaming bullshit since February last year.
i do understand that infectious disease is a very real threat and by treating a "mediocre flu type disease" like the pest, we're actually desensitizing the population, which could cause way more deaths in case such a disease starts spreading.
the questions and critique we are still trying to make aware of, is still largely ignored and defamed in the media. why? i don't know. i can just tell you this is happening. in fact i've seen many of the renowned experts lose their job and their social media accounts cancled... it's like we're living in global totalitarianism now.there will be the next worse corona virus. what will we do then? can we possibly be more extreme in our behavior? we can't stay in lockdown forever. and the consequences of our actions of 2020 are not even showing yet. the financial chaos that will insue, will be devastating.
You are absolutely correct at some point we would all have to make a rational decision based on what we observe and hear from people we trust and respect. The old risk vs reward will be something we rely on more. We have to learn and understand that this is going to be different for a lot of people and that's ok. Most importantly we have to communicate like the evolved technologically advanced people we are. There is nothing worse than coming out of a situation without learning anything and being worse of than we were. People can blame leadership as I have but we let them get where they are. I appreciate all of your input as well Genericname85. Its nice to see someone who actually puts some thought into their replies vs spewing rhetoric they heard or saw somewhere. We need more people like you in leadership roles.
@virtue2332 thanks man. you know it's funny that i find typically medical people who mostly agree with me, even though i know some of what i say could be not 100% accurate.
it's funny that it's mostly uneducated people or educated people from other branches that call me an idiot for my opinion on this without even considering what i said. just bunching me together with deniers and conspiracy theorists.
i think that's probably cause not many people but those that work in that field get to see with their own eyes, how volatile life is specially in the elderly stages. people act as though life would never end.
before we panic, we need to consider, that "died of old age" is never a sentence. and even professionals in the field are not untouched by biases they get from the media they consume. not trying to antagonize them. they are only humans. but we desparately need to take a step back, remember how science and actual research works and do our homework instead of continuing missinformation and irrational media panic spread by so called "experts"."died of old age" is never a sentence that will be said in a death certificate***
Probably the fact that medical people have to leave their emotion at the curb and pay attention to real data instead of relying solely on what we are told. When. You step back a apply a little logic you see a bigger picture. Chat with you later.
- Truth is truth. It doesn't change based on opinions.
The biggest one around is that Faith in God is for people who are weak. Given the way society treats people who are prepared to acknowledge that they need God the LAST thing we are is weak.0|00|0 - That 90-95% of humanity are literally useless and a blight on planet Earth in general, especially since they don't even have the goal of contributing to the greater society and are typically so arrogant, they think they have more value than the cow they ate for lunch, when the cow contributes more to the world as food than they do.

And the relationships between females and males is the same as it is in other primates and the only difference is because of the awareness of the future (time), human females can exercise and weigh some more aspects like status and character.0|21|0Agreed - it's remarkable how many people are either seemingly unaware or are in complete denial that we are simply animals crawling around on this big rock in space. Yes, we're quite intelligent, but that doesn't mean that we're completely separate and different in every way from all other creatures - we still have the same kinds of instincts and reproductive & survival motivations that all other creatures have, because if we didn't, we'd never have survived.
Our big smart brains don't exempt us from having instinctual, biological drives and reactions - but so many like to pretend otherwise...@MrOracle I guess we are so tensed and worried about life - not knowing how to derive pleasure from life anymore as survival is easy and when it comes to reproduction - most men just give up and aid themselves with other addictive substances. So we're left with what to do with our lives, where to find the meaning.
