Proper Philosophy

I’ve always engaged philosophy improperly.

My first mistake was a false presumption. I blindly believed that other people in the world were like me. I slowly learned that this was a complete falsity. Not only was a small minority of people similar to me, but ultimately, nobody is like me. I am a complete individual in sole aspect. My willpower purely focuses on philosophy, wisdom, knowledge, and truth. Maybe a small number of humans share these values with me, on this planet. But of this small amount of people, who are at least interested in philosophy, none of them love philosophy. None of them need philosophy and wisdom. None of them are willing to sacrifice for philosophy. So I separate myself from those interested in philosophy, and move onto those obsessed with philosophy. Obsessed with learning, debating, investigating, knowing the ultimate, absolute truths. Immersion into pure logic. No contradictions of thought, a flowing of complete rationality, and beautiful reasons.

Oh so beautiful reason.

Reason is the truth, the true weapon of philosophy. So few people have reasons in their lives, reasons to live, meaning, purpose. Most people are rather stupid, banal, boring, short sighted, blind, unthinking, uninteresting, ignorant, unlearned, and hate to think. The average human being hates thinking. This is proved by the existence and overwhelming popularity of religion. Religion is the philosophical leftovers. Great philosophers emerge in time, such as I. And these great men, great thinkers, powerful intellects, leave so much behind, for the religious minds to latch and hold onto. Philosophers create knowledge. Religions implement and preserve this knowledge. Religion is not about thinking, but believing. Religion is about blind belief. And religions need philosophy, while philosophy does not need religion.

Religion allows billions of morons to live their lives according to preset principles. These principles were first discovered and developed by wise men, ancient philosophers. So essentially, all religious belief today is proof of ancient philosophy. Very little, or nothing, changes about their fundamental thoughts and beliefs. Because religious people preserve the ancient wisdom. And religious people hate change, as well as new ideas. But then eventually a new philosopher comes along, is born, and changes everything. Some old religions are destroyed, some are changed with resistance, and some new religions are formed. That is the nature of life and the cycle of philosophy and religion, between doubt and faith, thought and belief.

I want to being philosophizing properly. It’s important to “do it rightly”, to it well, consistently, efficiently, artistically, fluidly. So many wannabe philosophers and thinkers do it improperly. They think that thinking is easy. It’s “easy” to doubt things. It’s “easy” to doubt God. It’s “easy” to doubt existence. But the problem with these pseudo philosopher, pseudo thinkers, is that they don’t know anything to begin with. You can’t doubt what you don’t know. And if you could, then you probably wouldn’t be doing it well, or properly. Because you aren’t aware of what you don’t know. To become aware of knowledge, you first have to define knowledge. And this definition is not easy nor simple to come by.

Most morons, humans, operate on instinct and reflex, emotion, like animals. Many of these humans even admit that they are animals. They claim “Yes, I am an animal.” Well, now that we’re both convinced of the fact, why does this animal believe it is any different than a monkey, dolphin, or beetle? The human animal gets confused too easily, with this question. The human admits its an animal, but doesn’t know what type of animal it is. Because if you categorize animals, then this proves discrimination, that some animals are “different” than others. And this awareness of difference represents a bias. So a contradiction emerges. The human is an “animal”, but “also a human”. This is a dualism. How can one be both a “human” and “animal” at the same time?

Forget that question. It leads into too much philosophy for your level of expertise. That goes beyond you. Instead, let’s move onto instincts, reflexes, and genes. Animals operate on instinct and reflexes, emotions, not rationality and reasons. Not logic. Reason is a human faculty, not a cognitive ability of lower animals and species. This is where the human “animals” react and say “No, that’s not true! All animals have reason and rationality and logic!” But, no, these human animals are wrong. How does a hive of bees have reason? How does a bear in the woods have reason? How does a grasshopper have reason? They don’t, they’re lower forms of life, without advanced cognition nor awareness, consciousness. Many organisms have very basic forms of consciousness, simple forms.

This demonstrates a difference of intellect. And the superior, heightened intellect, is within humanity, for the most part. The human animals, who admit they are animals, will not reject this separation between human and lower animal. Because no humans popularly sacrifice themselves, give up their lives, to save a few butterflies from death. Humans don’t cry over the bugs and insects, why not? It’s a simple question with a simple answer. There is too much organic dissimilarity. Humans do not feel “connected” to bugs and insects, as they generally and popularly do with cats or dogs, for example. There is closeness to mammals, but not other species. There are many reasons for this.

But philosophy is the highest form of intellect possible or attainable for humanity. Philosophy is the top of all hierarchies, then science which exists to prove a rationale, then religion which exists to establish that proved rationale as social doctrine and even universal law. This is done through physics, for example. A metaphysical presumption is proved through math, science, then this physical equation gets passed onto all children as canonical doctrine. Physics is its own religion. You can’t dispute a “physical law” without refuting all other laws. As it were, this is the necessary conclusion to the formation of all human laws. Philosophers know this, as proper philosophy.

The difference between proper and improper philosophy, is primarily the intent and value of the philosophy disciple. It is not enough to have a mere interest in philosophy, wisdom, knowledge, truth, reason, logic. It is not enough to value these ideals. The implementation of these ideals makes the philosophy “proper”. To what end can these ideals exist?

How are these values even possible to begin with? And this question poses the primary difference between a natural philosopher, like me, and artificial philosophers, who are players and pretenders. In other words, there are many self claimed “thinkers” who pretend to do philosophy. But they don’t truly want to dig down to the fundamental level of nature, of reality, of belief, of essence, of existence, of thought, of self reflection, awareness, consciousness, or anything. They don’t want to investigate truly. For many different reasons, they turn away from proper philosophy. They end up rejecting, and hating, what philosophy entails, which is, too much awareness and knowledge of everything.

You learn that people lie. That people operate on emotion. That people are bound by social rules. That people are rarely free or autonomous, but mostly enslaved, and furthermore enslaved by ideals they can’t comprehend. And this creates an intellectual hierarchy. And if your intellect is powerful enough to comprehend all this, then this can inundate and hold still a proper thinker and philosopher. You become mired by possibilities, reasons, rationales, logic, arguments.

While it’s true that people believe in stupid shit, far too often, and nobody doubts this, it truly says something about a person who learns the truth of this reality, let alone becomes determined to exist in it and persist through it. What is the reality of this human global world? It’s full of self proclaimed “psuedo intellectual” animals. Half awake, they call themselves by the dualism of “human” and “animal” at the same time. How do they hope to reconcile this difference?

You learn about what these concepts entail. The average moron admits that she is half free, and half enslaved. She is freed by the future, and what can come to exist, while enslaved to the past, that she is forced to remember, and cannot hope to ever change. Split apart between Permanence and Change, order and chaos.

And that’s all the human animal can really tell you, really “teach” you, about life. Because everything else, it does not own, but instead, learned from some philosopher, a hundred years ago, or a thousand.

So let’s start some proper philosophy.

In one of my visions a spirit said I was irreplacable in their eyes, and in their order.
According to the vision, we become more unique as souls every day, instead of becoming more and more similar to other creatures.
Each sufficiently capable soul cannot be duplicated fully or replaced fully. What can be created and duplicated is a wide variety, but still despite this, souls are not duplicate-able.

Lots of zombies.

I’m sure there is allot greater stuff than you and me out there.
In fact I consider the human ideas of “greatness” are mostly a fallacy.

What is to be great? What are we comparing ourselves to when we measure our greatness, for to have greatness measured, it must have a source of measurement. Are we to judge ourselves in greatness compared to the specks of dirt upon the soles of our shoes, or to the supernovas of exploding suns in far off galaxies? Each man is a genius, but if you expect a fish to climb a tree, it will grow its entire life believing that it is stupid. Not every person is meant to be a philosopher and not everyone is capable of thinking complex thoughts all the time or even most of the time. People become indoctrinated into a system by a series of lies based on empty promises. You look down on them, but once upon a time you were them. Some times, you still are. Every man is a mixture of intelligent and stupid and to varying degrees in different areas of their abilities. We each have certain strengths and weaknesses that makes it so we are all meant to work together to balance them out and yet with so much negativity and peoples fear and cowardice, this becomes impossible.

I would not call such people morons or fools or idiots, though in a heated moment of discussion with one I might. People aren’t as stupid as you give them credit for. They understand a lot of things in time that you may not get to see for the length of time it takes to train their brain to understand it. To say that we are greater than another is to admit that there is a difference between one speck of dirt and another. There may be, but anyone viewing from any great distance is not going to see it. Who is to say which is more important, the philosopher or the working man who bends his back for a living. The president/king or the common man. To see one better than another is to deny their inherent abilities that may differ from each other but remain strong nonetheless.

What is boring? What can you possibly measure your boredom against in such a short life span? There is so much to do and see and learn at any given time and if you’re bored, then you’re limiting yourself. ‘Bored’ is a word for the spoiled in society, for who can measure the boredom that must entail in a possible reality of a superbeing witnessing the slow crawl of the beginnings of the shapings of all time and space to the end of the time; those countless, countless years of long, tedious waiting for life to even begin to show up and then to begin to form complex organisms. The fact that you exist at all; the probability of life being found on a planet being very low; is a miracle. The fact that you continue to live day after day without having some accident occur to you that causes your death; is a miracle. Whether of spirituality or science, it is a miracle. You don’t get to be bored.

And other people don’t get to be hated, because all of them have suffered in one way or another and some of them have failed to make it through that suffering, let alone with level head intact. Mourn the dead and dying instead of beating on them more; help them to live again if you can; but don’t sit there and hate the ignorant for being ignorant because it’s not entirely their fault. There are a variety of facts about nature that show that at it’s very core is love. A camaraderie of life and death, each being dying to feed the others and continue life. Man has removed himself from the process in his own egotism and suffers the consequences of it in his bloated ego and shiny towers, seeing himself to be above other men when, in truth, he feels constantly inferior to them.

it is a bitter tragedy of a self-fulfilling prophecy that one sees a tragic destiny and moves toward it as if it were destiny when it is their own will that carries them. Because, humans can constantly surprise you if you give them the chance, If you set your feet down and dig them in and refuse to stop seeing the good things in life around you. There is a deeper magic that you have forgot for a moment, but you will remember again.

All ‘great’ people do is stand on the shoulders of giants and look down on the people who have yet to climb up. I think I’d still rather be equal and try to help my brothers and sisters up.

My first mistake was a false presumption. I blindly believed that other people in the world were like me. I slowly learned that this was a complete falsity. Not only was a small minority of people similar to me, but ultimately, nobody is like me. I am a complete individual in sole aspect. My willpower purely focuses on philosophy, wisdom, knowledge, and truth. Maybe a small number of humans share these values with me, on this planet. But of this small amount of people, who are at least interested in philosophy, none of them love philosophy. None of them need philosophy and wisdom. None of them are willing to sacrifice for philosophy. So I separate myself from those interested in philosophy, and move onto those obsessed with philosophy. Obsessed with learning, debating, investigating, knowing the ultimate, absolute truths. Immersion into pure logic. No contradictions of thought, a flowing of complete rationality, and beautiful reasons.

My first mistake was trusting, trusting that others trusted God. How easy it was for Philosophers to teach us to trust in God, when they believed they were God.

I slowly learned that God was used to disguise illegal Philosophy, Philosophy that bespoke of love yet committed acts of cruelty. I saw them as they proposed their rhetoric, how to act as if they were true holiness and yet their measure was true deceit. They never believed in God and they never applied his Laws, they broke them instead.

I have always known our individual state was oneness, unique yet the same, for I knew that I came from the Creator who made our measure equal. My expression was never equal as I knew I was not meeting myself in others and I watched as they were persuaded to leave our Father’s Laws and be involved in their own denigration. My will power sought my value and I knew that I should share my love and try to understand why human kind no longer believed in our Father’s love. I looked at the old Philosophy and saw how they had been denied their truth and I vowed to assist their struggles and their cruel deaths trying to remind their brothers of their Philosophical deceit.

I knew of the obsession with learning and proposing self through intellect, yet I knew that I had to use the method of application only to prove the obsession of others…the beauty of Philosophy.

Yes, there is infinite degree of uniqueness in existence. Nothing is the same. Equality is impossible. Nothing is equal. All is unequal. All is divided from all. What is called the “individual” is the essence of a human identity, some call it soul or spirit. It is a material thing.

I have learned how to recognize this thing innate within every individual. This is how I can see a person, and immediately know more about him or her than she knows of herself. Most humans believe that they are animals, and are so. But not all humans are animals. Not all animals are animals.

There is a difference in the ability to change the world, the environment, the universe. And the greater this ability, of reason, the greater a difference emerges from organisms, but also all things and all matter. This is known through recognition of objects. Not even the same object is recognized twice. Because the brain changes constantly. There is never a true repetition of existence.

The difference between men is the nature of power. Some men are powerful, while others are weak. Some men hold the lives of others in their hands, and can inflict pain, misery, and death, while other men cannot.

So life is a matter of control, power, and survival. The president controls the working man, can send him into war on his proclamation alone. The president has the power to kill his own soldiers, and the soldiers of other nations.

So you should ask yourself, what is the difference between a commoner and a president? Do you know? I already gave my answer, power. But can you go into detail?

I am spoiled, and was raised as a spoiled child. You admitted it yourself. My boredom is my entitlement. Therefore my boredom leads me to think, create thoughts and beliefs, unknowable to most commoners. My boredom is absolved by my thinking, my philosophy, my inquiry into existence. And it is in this action, that I have separated myself from everybody, and now enjoy the fruits of my labor.

People are boring. Because they do not think. Most of them are commoners, like you say, who break their backs for a living. And they waste their entire lives, from start to finish. Religion gives them hope, that, they will live a better life “next time”. Do you buy into this lie? If you don’t, then what does this say about life and death, and time spent?

You ought to spend time on what you value most.

Then whose fault is ignorance?

To ignore is to renounce personal responsibility. I would implore a common man to take up philosophy, but I know too much now, and recognize the futility of it. Some persons, bodies, brains, simply are not intended by their creators, to think. Some people are brain dead, and should remain so.

Or is it the responsibility of a proper philosopher to breathe life, and program thoughts, into the lesser animals?

A hierarchy emerges. Your thoughts are not your own, but installed within you, by a higher power.

There is no hope in humanity.

There is no equality.

God did not make humans equal. That is a Jewish lie, a religious propaganda, intended for slave minds. All humans are never equal with each other.

Equality is impossible. If anybody ever shares the same value, then they do not evaluate them similarly. And people don’t share values, to begin.

Values begin from independence, individuality, uniqueness.

[size=200]Values are birthed in infinite difference.[/size]

There is a duality inside of each person that many have failed to realize for lack of proper education or motivation to discover it. Every single person has the potential for greatness, but many never utilize it because they remain content not to. It is not to say that the potential stops being there, it is only to say that not everyone feels the need to reach for it. How can you claim to be better for reaching for a choice that caused you untold amounts of pain and suffering just because others refused to do the same and trusted instead in lack of pain?

Life is a matter of control, power and survival: Control of our selves, power over our selves and survival of our selves. When we have managed to overcome the need to survive through controlling and holding power over our self, then it becomes time to give each other person the means to escape their own need to survive by teaching them to have control and power over themselves.

I notice that you only put one perspective-bound difference between the President and the Common man. The president may wield more power than any common man in terms of obvious power in society and yet these individuals do so at cost to themselves by trying to push power and control over other people by their own person. To wit, they try to control too much. They become a slave to that system as assuredly as the common man becomes a slave to them; because their system is a system of deep responsibility and more responsibility than any one man can hold on his own and they don’t teach people to be their own people or to make their own decisions out of an over-burdened disposition that forces them to think only of themselves after a while. Most notably because they have approached the situation from an incorrect manner and assumed it was a correct manner due to their own intelligence.

The common man has more power over the president than both and the president may realize and yet never exceeding the amount of power the president holds over the common man. I also have the power to kill men and to even kill men of other nations, albeit not on a grand scale. But then, I have not bent my will to subjugating others to my will but in setting them free to find their own strength through a series of pains and sufferings bred from the birth of the deeper awareness of the conscious mind. Which do you think has more strength in the long-term, more solidarity? Certainly when all men find their own strengths and weaknesses and begin to truly educate themselves and be their own person in charge of themselves there will be more strength in that than in the current system of things, for we will stand as a brotherhood of men united and trusting our selves and all others to each be doing what we should be doing for the greater good.

The fact that many civilians are unempowered does not correlate to them being inferior except by the perception of those who have already empowered themselves. And, for all you know, those unempowered people may have learned to power themselves with a force that you will never recognize because they don’t force it on other people. Myself, I have chosen to force my beliefs and empowerment on others, but only in the bid that they may one day learn how to empower themselves to live their lives as free as possible. As Jar-el says to Superman:

“You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you. They will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders.”

Instead of the horrors of modern society, if we had just accepted equality and ceased performing horrors upon our fellow men out of ignorant thoughts of natural injustice, out of our pigheaded and stubborn natures, our civilization could have been so much better by this point. We could have possibly been the vision of Star Trek, boldly going where no men have gone before and creating an interstellar code of honor, a code that is not meant not to be broken, but to be upheld the best as people can; allowing for the mishaps to occur which may call us to break that code of honor so that we may continue using it.

The simple fact is that people believe what they believe now because they gave up believing what they wanted to believe because of the hard-headed nature of others and their own inability to express properly what they wished to express and now they have become those hard-headed individuals that now do the same to others in tearing away their hope and dreams just because they failed to rise to the occasion. All negativity stems from failure and the lack to acknowledge that we will fail multiple times before we learn how to succeed. Had I been like other men, I would have given up ages ago, but I tempered my hardheadedness and made it serve my greater purpose and I used it to push through every failure to find success.

I have found the words necessary to convey the terms of which I once had only a surface understanding of. I have been in those places of negativity myself speaking against other people who have had hope for the future and it is that reason alone that I feel indebted to help fix the problem. The only reason you feel better than other people is because they have often resorted to ignorance and negativity and you’re feeling greater than them is an insecurity based around a lie: for as smart as you were, you became just like them.

This is a false premise. Not everybody is dualistic.

This is false because greatness is by definition rare. Normal people are not rare. Not everybody is special. Special is defined through rarity, minority, and exception.

You are attempting to redefine normal into exceptional. But normal people are not exceptional.

Firstly, I don’t believe you.

Secondly, the commoner willingly demands his subjugation. The commoner enjoys being a slave, because the price of slavery is security. You get a warm house, minimum wage, food, water, and can live, through slavery. That is the basic price and cost. The commoner has no true nor real sense of pride. He makes her entire life out of hand outs, by her ruler. She has no independence, no individuality, nor does she truly want nor demand freedom.

She is an eternal slave, to security, to comfort. So you’re wrong about the difference between commoner and president. The president is, at least, a slave master. He is, at least, responsible for others. The commoner is not even responsible for herself.

You’re contradicting yourself, which shows a misunderstanding of what power is, and does.

You focus on the choice of others, instead of your own choice, already committed.

[size=200]There is no power without perspective.[/size]

No, the motivation of the commoner, is absorption into a whole, into a larger mass, into concepts such as “humanity”, “one”, “God”. The commoner wants to return to her mother’s womb, back to safety, back to security, back to unbirth, back to death.

My kind is different, and exceptional, because I recognize true freedom, and it is a horrific vision which none but a few, philosophers, can bear. Freedom is a horror. Because it means responsibility, over yourself, over others, over all things, all people, all existence. There is no freedom without responsibility. This truism leads to a necessary, objective morality.

A disposition of people’s souls, an inherent, innate quality of persons.

As such, the average person, a commoner or a moron, does not even comprehend the concept nor idea of freedom. They only imagine that freedom is good, and pleasurable.

They define truth as Good, never evil.

They define truth as pleasure, never painful.

These are the secular humanist liberals which populate and plague the majority of western society. That is the core belief of this decadent forum.

I can assure you that they are. Not everybody seems dualistic or remains dualistic constantly throughout their lives and yet everyone has been at one point and could be again at any point of their choosing to pursue proper modes of thinking and understanding. We do not have to think complex thoughts to be able to grasp the concepts, we do not have to speak intelligently or be able to read, we only need to have it presented to us in terms that we understand and therefore the greatest teacher in the world may still fall flat at the end of the day when confronted with a student who can neither hear nor see nor speak. And yet, Helen Keller managed, didn’t she, to find greater wisdom in a way that is awe-inspiring. How can someone so disadvantaged rise up to overcome? Choice. Determination. Many people give up and so become less of a duality and this is why scientists say we only use 10% of our brains and 90% of our dna is junk dna.

You are attempting to overlook the fact that nobody is normal save through the perception of what is perceived to be normal and only through the surface perspective of one viewing who does not watch long enough to gain deeper insight. And, I said that everybody has the potential, not that they utilize it. If everyone utilized their potential, you’d be right: nobody would be great. We’d all be fucking equal.

Firstly, just because you don’t believe in something doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Secondly, the commoner willingly demands his subjugation out of fear and through promise of greater security. No man subjugates himself to another mans authority out of willingness to be ill-treated, though some are those men who will indebt themselves to another for saving their lives. The commoner only enjoys being a slave to another while he considers himself in payment of a debt to that other. If he is unwilling to understand his debt and was never given a choice of having that debt or not in a way that soothes his taste, such as that act of saving his life, then what willingness has a man to be a slave other than duress and the pressure of his peers to do so? We don’t get a warm house for being slaves, we work and then still have to pay on top of it.

You want to say that the commoner has no no true nor real sense of pride and yet the commoner often has true and real sense of pride in the work he does, if he finds such work to be enjoyable; if it matches his passions in life and if that were the case, this commoner would not find think of themselves as a slave, but as the free-est man in the world. The commoner becomes mistreated in life at times and often underplays their own self-value because of it.

The common man of today, spoiled in the luxury of his slave pens does expect a handout. And damn right. We have worked damn hard to have all this excess and the system has promised us it will take care of us and it has denied the keeping of that promise. Still, there are a lot of common men out there who still wish to work for what they get and who still put the hard work into life itself to have earned some rewards for it. Just because it is not in a manner recognized by society is hardly the point.

And every person still has independence is they care to realize it and many do as the governments of men enslaving men are failing and people are realizing they have to look out for themselves in this concrete jungle. It becomes a matter of how they choose to be responsible for themselves and if they follow a certain course of lies and deceits and using other people, they can get to the top, too; but the top is just as much a slave to the slaves as the slaves are to the top. Because the slaves outnumber the top and they know it. But they’re afraid of acting out on their own because of what happens to people who do and they have yet to be pushed far enough to not give a shit. People can deal with a lot and the system has moderately worked here and there for a long time, so people haven’t felt like slaves. And that is the overall gist of life itself because we are slaves to life and furthermore slaves to death out of being unable to escape it and yet it becomes a matter of whether we view it to be enslavement or not; whether we find ways to enjoy it by following our passions or not.

And why should not one slave enable all other slaves to do the same? Why should we not temper our lesser natures and put no man above any other? We expect these slavers to have responsibility and they don’t. Perhaps it’s time we fought on a different level and began to actually make a difference where we can: by not being afraid of death and continuing to hammer home the ideals of men like Martin Luther King Jr… Do you think that just happens over night? The fact is that more men have gotten up to fight for those ideals more times in the past few centuries than at any other time in human history. Truly brilliant and incredible men and they have not cared if they died in the process. This system is breaking and you are a fool to think that the common man is a willing slave to a failing system or slavers who do not accept the responsibility of such a position.

The first society did not stem from subjugation, but from the hopes that they could fulfill their promises and yet, when faced with the sheer ignorance of some men, it’s easy to see where they lost their way when it became too much for them; so unprepared for it. They gave up when they should have stepped back and allowed people to be responsible for themselves equally. To teach them to do so while helping them, anyway. When you fail to properly educate people, you become a slave to their enslavement under your advanced knowledge. And they will ignorantly become whatever it is you choose to ignorantly teach them. We have only to look at the common man to find a perfect mirror of our supposed slavemasters.

How do I contradict myself?

That’s because I have already made my choice and thus have committed myself. It becomes my choice to inform all others of their choices and to urge them to do what is right for all.

You act as if becoming a part of a whole or one is a bad thing. You would have had no problem with it had it been a good thing you had been born into. You would have accepted it just like any one of those common men you seem to hate on who were born into a faulty system that seemed to work for them instead of against them and then sit there in negativity at the fact that they seem reluctant to leave that system. You see only one possibility of a commoner, not having the understanding to grasp that even a lowly factory worker may read Dickens and Faust and Aristotle in their spare time and that they do the work that they do because they enjoy it.

Your kind is different and that is why it sits there trying to control society instead of accepting the fact that it has become a slave to society more than society has become a slave to it. You found a truth and stopped just short of the ultimate truth and for that you think you have the ultimate truth. You still perceive life in negativity and you have misunderstood the cause of insanity or the answer to it: Either we will right our selves or we will destroy our selves and more people want to live than to die, no matter how many people like you exist to make them wish for death.

You have no understanding of people and thus remain ignorant. Therefore, I have nothing further to say to you until you make a different choice, as you have already seen the insanity of the universe and all life and made a choice to view it as you have.

You’re wrong, because different have different brains, different pathology.

Mentally, people are severely more different than they are physiologically. Within the brain, the differences become infinite. So even though a person looks similar to another, maybe the same race, intellectually it’s a different story. Different brains are procreated toward different ends, as well.

Different brains have different advantages and disadvantages. So, no, not everybody is a dualist intrinsically. The difference is the logical premise which different individuals undertake, as a pathological compulsion. In other words, your “original ideas” are unique, for specific reasons. Your brain was built accordingly, throughout your life.

That is one of the things you’ll see and notice, right away, as a proper philosopher.

Different people have different limits.

Where one soldier will die in the line of fire, another will survive. There are reasons for these difference, and also a degree of luck and circumstance. But luck is not an excuse. You seem to provide excuses, for differences?

The onus is on you to justify your beliefs, if I am to accept them on good faith.

You’re vastly underestimating the nature and depth of human subjugation over each other.

That’s human history. You haven’t gone deep enough into the concept, compared to me. I’ve been studying this for a long time. For example, you talk a lot about “choice”. What makes you believe that you have choices, or that you can make a choice, or that you can take responsibility for choices?

Or that you have the power to choose?

[size=200]Choice is a function, a dependent value of, power.[/size]

Because you’re focusing on just one type of power and choice, and “freeing others”.

There are other types of power than merely attractive, gravitational powers. Power doesn’t always “attract” others. Sometimes the unpopular is powerful.

Sometimes power is rejectful, repellent, and has the ability to push all things away from it. For example, I presume you belive in Scientism and the Big Bang? Wasn’t that a powerful event? And it was based on repulsion, on an explosion, and outward thrust, not an inward pull.

So there are oppositional forces, a difference of direction.

You can apply this principle to humans too. Some people are attractive, others repulsive. To repel is also a form of power.

You are voicing a staunchly Christian ethos and sentimentality.

But your desires are empty without wisdom to back them. You cannot offer what you do not have. Attempting to do so, will make you into a liberal, who promises people what she does not own.

You should open your mind to that possibility, as I have.

It can be bad, and evil, to become “one” or part of the “whole”.

Are you open-minded as I am? Do you truly desire, and demand, wisdom? Proper Philosophy?

But that’s not my circumstance.

You said it yourself, I was born spoiled, and fulfilled. Therefore it’s unreasonable to compare me to the commoner, or to Helen Keller. Should I hate myself, to be born spoiled, to be born wealthy and rich? To be born with everything? To have everything? Should I give it up, simply because I was born with this all?

But, you see, that mere status is not what truly separates my position from others, or the commoner.

It is the demand, for wisdom, for philosophy, for truth and knowledge. And it is the willpower, and potential, to gain in these things.

:smiley:

But you weren’t born with everything. You weren’t born with any more than the common man was born with. And I am the living proof of that. Your gains were more materialistic, but your understanding and wisdom and philosophy and depth has been disadvantaged due to that. It’s not your fault, so why should you hate yourself? While being born at a seeming advantage, you have had many disadvantages that the common man has taken in stride. You so clearly see their disadvantages that it becomes hard for you to understand their advantages or why you could be considered disadvantaged to them. That they may restrain themselves because they see you as lacking critical understanding in true pain and suffering because of your advantages that they did not have, for lack of wanting to hurt you for understanding your disadvantages which they don’t always see, either. In fact, the majority of people have a hard time seeing the others disadvantages as they’re mostly all insecure and look to the others advantages. Since you have not known much insecurity, for having security granted to in terms of wealth and power and knowledge, you fail to understand the most basic tenets of nature and personal responsibility.

You say so many things about me that are not true in any real sense of the word. If it were worth the time to defend myself, I would. It is obvious to any outside observer of the situation that certain things you have said remain true while certain other things remain false and this, also, is based in perspective you have yet to realize. You can’t even fathom both of us being right or wrong at the same time because you have to be right. Well, I have to be right, too; which is why I work on my self so that instead of forcing the world to be what I view to be right, I conform to the right that is inherent in the world. My right has already incorporated for your right and added on to it to make a more complete picture, while yours remains falling away and behind.

Huffing and puffing and trying to blow my house down not bothering to pay attention to the fact that you’re winded and I’m just getting started. I am titanium. I am thus because of the concrete nature of my beliefs; beliefs that would not be concrete without some sort of proof to back up the logic and at one point in time, I had to take a leap of faith in things I could not understand to be able to understand them. Where there is no leap of faith; whether in God, nature, or your fellow man; there can be no depth to your understanding. It is not the common man I worry about ruining the world of men in their ignorance; it is those who count themselves to be intelligent beyond the common man and yet do the most damage to the world. i.e.: people like you. I am eternal because I am an idea and ideas exist beyond the flesh; they transcend and grow into the hopes and dreams of countless lives. You are eternal, too; you are the flip side of the same idea. You want to think you’re something new, but the truth is that we’ve danced this dance all throughout history. Argued these arguments and fought these fights. Every so often, nature chooses its champions to hash out its own inner struggles and you know what history shows us?

That while the supposed elite rule over men for long periods of time that dip into chaotic disharmony and inevitably lead to war, the good in man prevails and keeps the other in check. We haven’t left that behind just because we exist in a modern age. And that might be something that’s kept in to keep people believing and keep them subjugated longer, but it is only a forestalling of inevitability before people come to realize their own power again and their own outrage for life and how to live. When people like you get bored of leading the ignorant men that you chose to lead instead of teaching them how to lead themselves; when you get bored of getting away with what you get away with, and start being more open with it because you consider them stupid when they’re just trusting and caring; that’s when you will be faced with the truth.

I am titanium. You can shoot me down, but I won’t fall. Your insults to my intelligence only so many words in the summer breeze. You seek to tear me down to continue believing what you wish to believe while I tear you down to try to help you and therein lays the world of difference in intent if not in action and that is what makes you hypocrite and not me. It is easier to be negative than to be wise and you consider yourself wise while being negative. It’s counter-productive. Your talents, for as great as they are, are nothing because of that one inalienable fact; and that makes you just as low, if not lower, than the common man. You consider strength to be the killing off of emotion, apparently, when it is anything but. It’s why you will continue attempting to gain the upper hand over me in more and more desperate ways while I remain calm and sure of myself. Because, I am the result of so many other peoples suffering and pain that they caused themselves while trying to run from it.

I am the direct reaction to the action given and have made duty and personal responsibility my missions and furthermore, I made it my mission to preserve myself and my inner child the best I could and to which I have done. My inner child was spoiled, though. It wants only to be loved and it is impossible to love it all the time. It is impossible to love anything all the time even though that love will always be there. It’s because we all do things that are annoying to someone else and we all do things others view to be wrong. It’s frustrating and saddening and frankly, some people are never raised to have compassion for other peoples suffering because they exist in spoiled luxury.

Hate yourself for it? No, but don’t sit there getting all pissy about other people getting pissy with you for not understanding them or their situation. And don’t sit there and pretend to have proper wisdom when all you have is deeply biased bullshit.

I justify my beliefs. That’s the difference.

You consider your insights(beliefs) justified, others consider them unjustified. :-"

You’re born proof of what I was born without?

Your conclusions don’t really apply to my personal circumstances. I always valued wisdom and truth higher than everybody else, even now this remains blatantly, clearly true.

The truth is, I’m willing, and already have, sacrificed more than most, or most than you can hope to have, to acquire knowledge about the deepest essence of life, and all the mysteries of the known and unknown universe.

The simple fact is, most people, the commoners, don’t think, don’t want to think, and wouldn’t think about anything interesting or inspiring, if they did follow through with thinking. Therefore, thought is not for the commoners. And history, and philosophy, are with me on this conclusion. That’s why religion’s so popular.

Beliefs are earned and justified. How have you justified your own? Do you even know what a choice is? Is choice an illusion?

How does one “choose” anything in life? Do you choose your dreams and nightmares? Do you choose your birth and family?

I get the impression of common values, though. I dare ask how you define such an idea as “good”. But I’ve heard the story hundreds of times. So I’ll just wait for you to prove what you claim to believe in.

Good, choice, power, what do you know of these things?

People dare not engage me in a dialect, because their reasons will be exposed. To justify your beliefs is to expose your rationale, logic, and reason.

And many people have no reason, but instead, justify their beliefs on purely emotions. That’s where others become exposed as empty souls, zombie bodies and mindless people. They have bodies, sure, but no autonomy, no self capability. It’s a certain level of intellect that becomes demonstrated and proved.

Besides, when people cannot understand other peoples’ beliefs, because they’re not curious and not philosophical, then it becomes boring.

Philosophy is only worthwhile when proper philosophers, true intellects meet and exchange valuable ideas. Most people do not have valuable ideas, because they lack value. Secondly, if they do have values, then most commoners are untrained to defend them, or to attack another.

The fact that you purposefully misunderstood what I meant means that I’m now going to disregard the entire rest of what you said. You make excuses while I give reasons. Enough has been said here and you have said more than you probably realize you have said at the moment. It is the reason why you will always be doomed to fail even though it appears as if it is success. It is because you are limited in your thinking. You think so short term that it’s ridiculous and that is the problem of a lot of men because our lives are so short. You have made your choice and you have placed your value in something that your reason and wisdom have told you to place value in. What more can be said without repeating? The line is drawn and we both refuse to give. What comes next? Will you tear this world apart just to be right and prove yourself wrong in the process? What happens when ‘good’ people have no further reason to be good? Do you not think they will destroy even themselves just to destroy what they hate? One way or another, this will end; this ongoing struggle of humanity. Either we will straighten ourselves out through the dogged determination not to give in, or we will destroy ourselves in the process. The fact is that nothing lasts forever. It becomes a matter of how you want to live. As I said, you have made your choice and cemented it in. By the time you realize the faulty nature of your own foundation, it’s probably going to be too late.

Rather full of yourself. A new dawn is coming and you can either be a part of it or be wiped away by it.

Insightfoul,

All I see from your threads is entitlement and abuse. The power you speak about is a product of fear. You idolize fear? (Power)

Someone’s signature said arrogance conceals insecurity. This appears applicable.

You’ve demonstrated nothing beyond the rest of us ‘non-philosophers’. Perhaps you incapacity to convince anyone provokes your will to dismiss us as fools and your lessers.

Humans are built with an innate pathological disposition, fear and hope. When new stimuli is introduced to the human animal, it produces a fear reaction. This fear is based on experiencing a new phenomenon. The human does not recognize something, an event. This is called “newness”, authenticity, change. Biology adapts to change. In pathology, the reaction to fear is hope.

Humans consider fear as negative/bad/evil. Humans consider hope as positive/good.

However, as a proper philosopher, I extend very, very far beyond humanity. I am open minded, whereas, probably, you are not, Joe Schmoe. For example, you seem unable to consider an alternative possibility. Maybe fear is good and positive, while hope is evil and negative? Have you considered this? No, you haven’t. Because you are an improper philosopher. You haven’t thought out all the possibilities.

Like Pandora admitted this week, she “doesn’t have enough time for philosophy”. She doesn’t put in the time, to think about these types of things.

I can consider all possibilities. All possibilities are open to me, allowing me a unique, absolutely different perspective, than everybody else. Your mind, probably, is closed about a few things. And I’ll recognize this about you very quickly. I’ll see your mental weaknesses, where you fear certain possibilities. Where you consider somethings impossible or improbable.

For me, it’s easy, because I have the proper brain and pathology for this, as well as the time. I’ve been born to a certain amount of luxury and sedentary lifestyle that affords me excessive time to philosophize. Plus nature has imbued me with an overflowing, artistic passion for my thoughts. So I can assert them, very easily, overpowering, through other people such as yourself. This becomes easier when you practice it so often and so much, rather obsessively.

For example, can’t you consider that it’s possible that fear is good, and hope is evil? That satan is good, and god is evil? Can you assert faith in these oppositional premises?

Can you reverse your values? Are your values flexible, is your mind open??? I doubt it, because, I’ve never really met other proper philosophers, maybe just a couple or a few, but I’m not going to tell you who these people are. Plus, a proper philosopher only occurs maybe once every 300 years, depending on the occurrence rate. So it can be a once in a lifetime opportunity, or once in a millennium opportunity, as it was the case with Christ. Every once in awhile, a supreme type of intellect is born to life. So these monumental types of men, the extreme rarity of humanity, the top 0.000000000001%, the best of best, the king of kings, occur in humanity.

I’m just stating that this is possible. I’m offering the possibility of absolution. Now, I expect people will passover this. And that’s fine. As I admit, I’m primarily interested in philosophy. You are entitled to your own philosophy. Just don’t be a hypocrite with your critique of my reasons. And we’ll coexist peacefully and cooperatively.
