he’s making fun of (¿a misunderstanding of?) this
I’m not misquoting you. You were talking about lunar eclipses and you said “Because it’s not the earth casting the shadow.” Then later you said “Eclipses are shadows from the earth.”
Nothing about that is miquoting you.
Now, if you changed your mind from saying ‘its not the earth casting the shadow’, then thats a lovely and commendable thing to do. Is that what happened?
Mikey
Well. If I misspoke by mixing up my words…
My point still stands.
Lunar eclipses are caused by the shadow of the earth. Lunar cycles are not.
You apparently did. Thanks for recognizing that.
Yeah, sure. Who is disagreeing with that?
Well then I’ll come back to what said.
You said the only way the moon can have a shadow is if something is between it.
That’s not true.
I’m trying to outsmart you. I’m just telling you the way it works.
You just whined about being misquoted, and then you say this? I didn’t say those words.
So maybe we’re misunderstanding each other.
Do you agree that the phases of the moon have nothing at all to do with the earth’s shadow?
Except on lunar eclipses?
Yes, and I have no idea why you’re arguing about that at all. Nobody here disagreed with that.
Well there we have it then.
There is a difference between thinking of yourself less (selflessness), and obliterating individuation. Are you saying this difference resolves the conflict between “no mind” and mindfulness? Are you saying mindfulness is like being considerate? Are you saying it recognizes the selfness of the other and the otherness of the self? Is vacuum energy merely theoretical or is vacuum a misnomer when a better word would be “geodesically incomplete metaframe”? It’s not nothing. It’s energy that’s everywhere. And yet everywhere has/is stuff in it (energy at various levels of accretion) — so how is it a vacuum (empty)? It sure isn’t absolute zero of anything.
Yup. Thank you for seeing that you misspoke. Confusion solved. Lunar eclipses in fact are the shadow of the earth being cast onto the moon.
Ichthus.
This is something very hard to teach.
The state of no mind is every mind.
It’s the most powerful force in existence.
It’s perfection.
When you awake, and go out into the cosmos with a mind…. It’s always imperfection.
I’ll say this in a different way that’s a joke.
People always say… “nobodies perfect”
That’s because non being is perfect.
Even our own language reveals this truth.
Perfection is every self giving the right of way to the other. Mutual recognition. The whole universe demonstrates it (even if in shadow), and it is most fully seen on the cross.
when you say everyone gets what they want at the expense of nobodies you mean the no mind of nonbeing
which means everyone is of the same mind — in that they agree as individuals (together) about what they want that everyone wants AND only uniquely want what doesn’t conflict with what everyone (all selves as selves, regardless of individual wants) wants (Rainbow rule)
that is how they solve conflict between their own internal individual wants, as well as conflict between individual groups.
analogous to the way all bonds/agreements are made/formed/constructed, sustained in sequential time, broken/destroyed
but in a geodesically complete metaframe subsuming the sequence (and so not subject to keeping its order)—all of that is a timeless relationship (trinity… in the image of which/whom …. fricken I gotta get ready for work 
correct?
No. I’m literally telling you nothing is perfect.
A thing is imperfect.
I know this is a really difficult concept for you to understand.
All the power and friends in the universe can’t compete with nothing at all.
If you want to be perfect, don’t exist.
That’s not an excuse for being a bitch or an asshole because that just keeps you stuck here.
You aren’t saying anything difficult.
Nothing is easy.
God isn’t nothing, and he’s the only perfect being.
If you want to be perfect like God, be merciful.
Cuz I’m GONNA be a bitch/asshole.
Marriage is worse than death & kissing is worse than eating each other.
God can’t be more perfect than oblivion.
It’s impossible. I know this is triggering you.
It’s true though.
I’ll add to this. The sheer arrogance that life is better than eternal slumber will haunt any being who wants to be god. You’re being haunted by it Ichthus. I’m not. The reigns of power are meaningless compared to death.
God in his naïveté is nothing compared to death.
Death always wins the argument.
Oblivion is more beautiful than life.
Life is an eternal chore.
Death is no chores.
Jesus spoke of the living and the dead as if life were the optimal state of being.
Even death with all its power just wants to be dead.
