@BenJames --- examining paths ---
I do find values from places others might fear.

Sometimes reminders of things about life have a person running away from the reminder to other diversions.
Some just don't want the discomfort returned.
Obviously (or not so obvious) I am not with interest to increase anyone's already too much discomfort.
However if there is willingness to endure through to an understanding, there are these subjects which if explored well enough with a goal of empowering can be of help.
Sometimes there is appreciation for a type of idea in this space... and then sometimes not.
But it isn't the idea offered that determines which. The viewer viewing determines which.
As long as I keep my personal intent clean (sometimes requiring razor edge discernment) then the posts themselves should be without harm... any harm possible then is harm added not by me.
The process of my posting and the viewer viewing is a cooperation.
A clashing should come if there is a mismatching of the ultimate goal.
My razor tries to (and kind of does ok to) present ideas which are clean. Meaning without "evil" intention embedded.
If any of that is encountered, it comes from a different source than where I am from.
Wrapping this post up, please remember the fact that we work within the physical, which means there is an opposition - to everything.
So what I am honest about, will seem to have a flavor of dis-honesty somewhere.
Well, ultimately the totality of what is, is what one can know totally is.
So any result of our mutuality is a sharing result.
100% responsibility.

In the beginning was the Word... John 3:16-21 KJV For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. {17} For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. {18} He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. {19} And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. {20} For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. {21} But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Let's get this out of the way:
• No fake neonazis/Jewbashers -- and yes, you're all fake.
• No fake flat Earthers -- and yes, you're all fake.
• No bootlicking, fake or otherwise, until you can explain why YOU believe it's immoral for YOU to be the highest authority over... (are you ready for it?) ...YOUR life. (If it *is* your life... *is* it *your* life?)
• No preaching or quoting Babble verses at me. Odds are a quadrillion to one that I know more about it than you do. ...And we need to have a word about all the inventions, such as "God", that somehow end up inserted without comment into every "translation" (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) of the original Hebrew texts. Because those contain not a single supernatural concept. Period. Not sorry. Deal with it.
👉 For the record:
I don't think either sex is "better" than the other • I comprehend that "race" is meaningless to any practical purpose in life • I comprehend that all religions are invented • the only authority I recognize is my conscience • I'm not a member of any group or organization.
Also, I don't believe things.
👆 That is the most vital thing to understand. If you can ennumerate for yourself and understand all the ramifications of that, we'll get along just fine.
By way of explanation, it's about being self-honest and disciplined of mind.
I've yet to ever meet anyone whose brainpower appeared to approach my own. I'm just going to say that from now on, being a little bitter around the edges from waiting nearly half a century to meet another like me and it still not happening.
I'm just not "your average guy". Never have been, never will be... can't be, in fact. I couldn't be normal if I wanted to. Thankfully, I've never had the slightest interest in being anything other than whatever I naturally am.
Sorry in advance.
Anyway, I'm The Archivist; I archive things. I always have.
If I make any kind of statement, I already have good information to back it up, ready at hand. I make up my mind about things very slowly and very carefully, usually after a deep and thorough investigation... so I'm not an easy person to argue with.
Again, sorry in advance.
That being said... I actually *live* to be proven wrong. Because being proven wrong means I become less wrong, or more right. And I want to be as right as I possibly can at all times... don't you? I have no resistance to changing my mind. But to prove me wrong and change my mind, you have to bring the only two things I pay attention to: evidence and logic.
Opinions and beliefs are fine for trivial matters like one's personal preference of ice cream flavors. For any serious subject, they're worse than worthless.
