i posted my Hybrid thing before i read your your 4-D post pjk.
i guess you answered to everything and then some. i appreciate the time and effort you put into this post. no one on the voy is questioning your sincerity about your beliefs but i for one am concerned about your emphasis on the darkness you see spreading at the feet of the children of the lamb of god.
do you ever wonder about it? i mean where do you find your strength? of all the people on the Voy, you have, in some ways, the MOST to be happy about! where did it all go negative? really. i am curious.
over the time on this forum it has been common for you to be cornered by numerous other members but you always slip away. i feel embarassed to say in some ways this forum is like one extended marathon Intervention.
i don't want you to be like me and god i know you wouldn't want to be [take it from me] but when did it get so dark for you?
to do certain things in the world requires the great endurance of psychic agony. we all know that. some know it better than others.
the challenge is to fight it, use it and overcome the agony.
the Danger is when we accept, embrace and nurture the agony and it becomes our friend, ombudsman, cloak of the transcendent, mentor and mirror.
i enjoy a good fight. i love to watch other people argue. for these reasons i don't mind antagonizing or being antagonized. but i do want to suggest the relative nature of our demise and the existing threat thereof.
on the otherhand, have you ever considered that you are experiencing a taste of Koyaniskatsi?
i mean this out of love and concern, not to poke sticks or criticize: because of the monumental changes you see the world in need of, because you see the state of things with such dark lenses....have you considered that your career choice, the one you describe as comprising of small changes, is not fulfilling you? perhaps you would feel more actualized and in control of your destiny if you were contributing more directly to a global change? perhaps journalism, politics, international affairs, red cross, missionary work? i'm serious.
i don't know how else to respond to the years of fielding the extent of your pessimism. it doesn't offend me but it concerns me as a friend. i know you love your family and you want to nurture a postive world for them to grow. is it viable given your apparent perception of the world? can perception change without a deeper insight into one's life? how does anyone gain that insight? it's a challenge for us all.
dr. mulert has left the building. good night now.
