Do you meditate?

  • But there is evidence, my testimony.

  • Your thesis amounts to mere convention.

  • No, I do not see the harm. Lol.

  • Have you never been aggressed by the members of an atheist forum?

  • I'm just saying that people are guilty. All people. Not just the guys on the other team.

    Guilty of crass behavior and guilty of sloppy thinking.

    • Do you meditate?

    Jump

  • I have no reason to believe...

    Why not just go with it? For conversation's sake.

    Because the world is large and we are small and stranger things have happened.

  • Replace that cross with... whatever modern, right-thinking, science-believers swing, and that would be pretty accurate too.

    People being people. Tribal, oblivious. Epistemological habits that would offend a dung beetle.

  • I am sperg, which is arguably an uncommon shape of attention. And I meditate. Which is all about doing certain stuff with attention (and studying it, unavoidably philosophizing about it, etc)

    Which is an uncommon perspective, maybe. But surely other people study it too. (So many of us are enmeshed in it after all, and depend on their facility in it for their profession. )

    And yes, it's a big deal. A very big deal. An elephant in the room.

  • But that isn't what I said, now is it.

  • Why not call it a magic trick. I mean, technically it underlays science. So it's transcendent to our scientific way of making sense of stuff. Which is a pretty good definition for magic.

  • Did I say that it is mind-blowing?

    That 3 problems in a row for you. 2 of them misrepresentation of the words.

    Maybe the problem is on your end. Try thinking about it a bit and then get back to me.

  • You could say that people with this personality trait are inclined to become artists, scientists and engineers.

    And you could call this personality trait a magic trick.

  • I'm describing a way of using attention. To put it entirely in one place and to completely remove it from everything else.

    And then the place where you put your attention blossoms and everything else rots.

  • It's more of an ensemble of virtue-signals denoting membership in a certain tribe. Same people tho.
