Re: Mind's Eye Re: Presence

Humour of all kinds is generally good for us RP, but only in opening up how ridiculous seriousness can be.  Generally we shouldn't take it as far as dancing on graves.  I appreciate you as a straight talker.

Arrogance and violence are often 'inertial', already individually and socially constructed before something we might recognise as a speech act.  Molly does have a kind of 'back off' stick, though we all choose or have different routes and protective devices forced on us.  I have not been looking for god in science (though the presence is there in many, perhaps limiting ways).  I am not keen on anything based on holy script reverence.  One feels, and this is not crude libidinal stuff, in what one thinks, and this links to others who seek.  The presence for me is the possibility of a shift away from the co-evolutionary arms race, maybe even the current rather dismal view of our trap in space-time.  I am quite sure from personal experience that my virtual world can experience something very Other.

I am an easy convert. All someone needs to do is show me that their life coincides with their teaching.  Is their immediate family their most ardent followers?  And not by submission but by example.  I don't follow tornadoes even if I find the path of destruction interesting but I will follow a river to its beginning.

Truth is not always what you think. You have to be receptive to differing viewpoints, instead of reacting to them with anger as if others wanted to forcefully thrust them down your throat, at least I am not interested in changing anyone, to convert someone to my way of thinking, a
