Psychology 101

When high everything sounds reasonable....everything looks edible....everything seems lovable.....everything is soooo easy.....everything makes sense....everything sounds good and feels deep....everything is fuckable.....everything is alive and talking to you.....everything is talking to you.....OMG.......I'm trippin'

Modernity makes all vices inot virtues - the great equalizer.

Homosexuality was a psychological dysfunction...now to not be a homosexual or to not accept homosexuality as 'normal' is the psychological dysfunction; being a slut or a whore, was a symptom of psychological issues....not not being a slut or looking down on sluttishness, is a symptom of psychological issues; preferring your own, and not wanting to live around difference peoples was natural...now its a symptom of fear; trusting your senses and believing that what looks different was actually different, was once healthy and sane, now its a sign of anxiety; drug use was considered a sign of deep psychological issues, now not doing drugs or disproving of them is a sign of deep psychological issues.

Nihilism inverts everything.
Europeans are Negroes, Negroes are Europeans; women are men, men are women; vices are virtues, virtues are vices; stupid ifs genius, genius is stupid; weakness is strength, strength is weakness; noumenon is phenomenon and phenomenon is noumenon; ideal is real, and real is but an ideal; esoteric is exoteric, and exoteric is esoteric; healthy is sick, illness is healthy; and one from the Old Book, life is death, death is....life, of course.
All flipped on its head in bizarro Circus world.
Clowns ought to be taken seriously, and sobriety ought to be laughed at.
Inverted Reality.
Representation is more real than the represented; the represented is unreal.
Words are more real than deeds.
It all makes sense if you go insane.
Changing your perspective, is what it's called.
Losing your mind....literally.

I can always spot a mind that has issues with authority, and desperately wants to be included into the mainstream; he's the one always using authority figures to hide behind, or is expressing personal judgements tongue-in-cheek, i.e., always maintaining an escape route and/or plausible deniability.
Ironically he's the one who claims to be a 'free-spirit', or attempting to stand-out and apart as 'unique', while expressing the most conventional beliefs and parroting popular sentiments.  
He's rebellious only if there's a proxy, a leader, an authority to place before himself - a shield between him/her and the other - the one he wants to belong to, e.g., God, the absolute authority.

What would make someone turn against his and/or her own kind, with a passion unmatched even by their enemies?
It is because their own kind reminds them of their inferiority, whereas the stranger is too different to make them feel ashamed and/or embarrassed.
With a passion they despise their own reflected insecurities and vulnerabilities - before what reminds them of themselves they perceive their own weaknesses with a clarity they gradually grow to despise.
The male despises males of his own kind he cannot compete with; the female despises the males of her own kind she cannot attract, finding in the alien an ally, i.e., for him a way to attack what he cannot be, and for her a validation she can use against her own kind; for him a way to avenge himself, as it is for her.
For this reason the most emotional enemies of Europeans and European cultures, particularly European males, are Europeans themselves.

Think of the coming Dark Age as a necessary purging.
A much needed reality check.

I think Weininger's formula of attraction should be modified...

The level of desperation, i.e., need/desire, is inversely proportional to the level of reason the individual is willing to maintain - or how much of it he is willing to sacrifice, in regards to a specific objective - exposing the subjective mind's deepest desires and insecurities, e.g., more desperation, less reasoning; more desire, less logic; more insecurity, less common sense; more subjectivity indicates less objectivity; more idealism, enforces less realism.
The proportions fluctuate form individual to individual and from one moment to the other, e.g., one moment an individual is more lucid and rational, the next he is overwhelmed by need/desire and his absurdity tolerance levels spike.
It explains why 'lust/love' was described as a form of momentary madness, and why it is described as 'blind'; under the pathos of eroticism - desire - the mind knows no logic, is controlled by no rational discourse...it is entirely a-logos.

This can also apply to the degree of Nihilism present in an ideology exposes the the mind's level of insecurity and vulnerability - the symbols/words exposing the source.

The ancients used the Centaur to represent this.
The upper part was the human, i.e., logos, meaning logic, reason; the lower was the a-logo, the horse, the beast - that which negates logic and reason.

Centaur - Κενταυρος - had two meaning.
Κεντο - Ταυρος - to spur the bull, alluding to a bovine herder, associated with wealth.
Κεντο - Αυρα - weave an aura, the intertwining of the man with the animal, i.e., manimal. Centaur, Satyr...

Min/body, woven together by the Nervous system - the point of synthesis.
Upper = logos - reason, logic.
Lower = a-logos - that which knows no logic, no reason, is entirely impulsive, primal, driven by pathos.

Every judgement implies a triangulation, for higher life-forms. It is the only advantage higher reasoning offers - otherwise all would remain on the less demanding either/or processing of a plant - entirely automated.

Chaos is a factor.
What does the mind do, when deciding, when making a judgement call?
It takes an event - that is never entirely foreseeable - because of random energies affecting order, or patterned energies - and it juxtaposes it with self, in relation to an objective - the objective being a projection into the future, of the expected, the goal, based no accumulated knowledge/experiences, i.e., precedent.

This happens as fast as possible, because reaction time determined effectiveness through efficiency.

If all were ordered there would be no need for any quick judgement call, all would be automated - if a and b then x is the reaction; if y and a, then z is the reaction.
The factor of randomness intervenes necessitating immediate approximations, increasing probabilities relative to a goal.
Now in life the primary - the original goal - is survival, so the objective always has to do with what increases the probability of surviving.gradually this acquires the long-term component of reproduction, which is another way of thinking of survival.
Simple organisms juxtapose the circumstances in relation to a goal, using self as the standard - this is the less sophisticated form of judging - subjective judging, suing self as the standard and juxtaposing the emerging event, confronting the 'self' in relation to the intended goal, the 'objective'.
On this level the sense of self is not necessary as it is the measure of all.
The unforeseeable event is reacted to in relation to the objective and the decision is made.
Very little room for divergence....for freedom from the triangulation.

Gradually this develops the element of projection, where the mind projects the standard outside the self - we call this objectivity.
The objective can be made the standard that juxtaposes self with the emerging event. This requires a level of mental sophistication and self-awareness - both determining the quality of the outcome.
The event arise, confronting the organism with its appearance, and the organism juxtaposes self, event (phenomenon) with objective (goal, intent).
This opens up a variety of combinations....where the subject is no longer the measure but the objective - this is ideology - or where the event can be sues as a standard to juxtaposes subjective self with the objective.

All value-judgements, and the choices that come from them, are based on this triangulation.
I would expect the next advancement in consciousness to be quadrandination.

Anywho....choice is freedom.....number of options is a measure of freedom, in relation to another.....same as the measure of strength, knowledge etc.
What happens with degenerates still stuck in Abrahamic nihilism, is that their notion of these terms is a derivative of their unsophisticated absolutism.
Therefore, power and/or strength is juxtaposed in relation to a projection outside space/time of absolute power/strength, i.e., omnipotence; awareness knowledge is projected in relation to a mental construct they call omniscience.
In relation to this mental fabrication, this mental absolute, all pales in comparison.
If it fails to compare or to even approach a comparison, then it is designated a 'nil'.
So, given that there are no absolutes - other than in the human mind in the forms of vague abstractions - all such juxtapositions are doomed to conclude in a fallacy.
But the fallacy is not necessarily undesirable by desperate degenerates who are aching for an excuse to noetically 'exit' space/time.
If nothing else placing the bar so high - absolutely high in fact - as to be impossible to attain or even approach, they comfort themselves, excusing their own failures to even approach a good judgement call.

The only advantage the evolution of higher cognitive functions would offer would be in a cosmos where all was not following an absolute order, but produced unforeseeable events due to the inter[play between order and chaos, and/or patterned and random energies.
Quick and relatively accurately judgements calls would be an advantage in comparison to the trial/error slow process of plants and of lower life-forms.
Chaos produces unforeseeable configurations - slight modifications - that require immediate and fast reactions, readjusting the organism movements/momentums in relation to a desired objective.

Chaos makes conciousness of the immediate circumstances a matter of great importance.
Without chaos all existence is a repeating movie...an endless 'unchanging' process of illusory changes.
God masturbating?
Replace one-god with absolute-Order, and you get it.

Past is immutable - it is chaos/order synthesized and evaluated, in hindsight, by a conscious organism.
Chaos merges with order, because an organism can only process patterns, i.e., order.

Chaos/order interact only in the ongoing fluid present. but, again, since organisms interpret the present/presence as appearance, chaos and order merge into appearance.

Future is yet to be determined...and the organism participates in its determination with his evaluation's of the present, through appearance, and of the past, in hindsight.
An organism is an agency among multitudes of other agencies, interacting with chaos/order, only able to perceive and process order, approximating what it cannot process and perceive, i.e., randomness, chaos. .

Anthropomorphism is the last superstition man must overcome; a type of self-referential egotism characteristic of organic development from foetus toward maturity; immaturity attempting its final break, like a seedling breaking through a womb-like enclosure where it is the centre and the core; its subjective echo chamber.


Life is not the centre of existence. It is existence awakening to itself - i.e., neurological conduit connecting itself to what is other than itself - assuming that other is the reflection of its self-awareness.
Life using itself to understand what is other than itself; basing its understanding upon the quantity and quality of this self-knowledge - inevitably perceiving itself through otherness, mistakenly assuming otherness is a reflection of itself.
It sees itself everywhere, because all it knows, or thinks it knows, is itself - to whatever degree it does.
From everywhere what is mirrored back is its own understanding of itself - its symbols words, representing what it desperately wants to believe about itself. Man sees and hears himself echoed back, and it looks and sounds remarkably like what he wants to become.

The epitome of mind/body dissonance:
To intentionally say one thing, think a second, and do a third - imply-intent-impulse -: the first correspond to nervous system, expressed through semiotics; the second to mind, expressed through concepts, feelings, emotions; the third corresponds to body and is expressed through actions.
Of the three the last is the most precise and honest, and the most powerful.
It precedes the other two - because plants move, but have no intent and cannot imply linguistically. Next to evolve is the intent, characteristic of organic life, and the last to evolve, and only applies to an organism, such as man, and is linguistic, i.e., extension of mind/body as technique/technology.
A philosopher is a lover of wisdom because he intends - of the mind - to bring the three in harmony - to make them cohesive and mutually supportive, so that words/symbols, thoughts/concepts and actions/choices are in alignment.
Nihilism intends to detach the last two from the body - 'liberating' them, so that they no longer have to be limited by the body, i.e., the physical, corporeal, tangible.
Mind is theoretically 'liberated' through logos - language. Mental abstractions can now fantasize, unashamed that its mental fabrications correspond to nothing corporeal.
Language is now a means of expressing fantasies, supported by feelings, emotions, but nothing physical.
This is the Biblical message of the Jesus Messiah: logos as the symbolic liberation of mind (spirit it is named), from the body's restrictions - one of which is mortality.
Memes disconnected from their genetic sources - pure ideology is what the Abrahamic - i.e., Magian - spirituality sells to wanton masses who desperately want to escape the 'prison' of their bodies - their inherited past: sum of all previous nurturing is 'nature', as in 'human nature'.

Aryanism - i.e., paganism - is the reverse, and this is reflected in its spirituality - its deities, referring to perceptible, testable, experienced nature.
Nihilism spreads where all diseases flourish, in overpopulated contained environments, breeding all kinds of parasites and bacteria, and propagating all kinds of mutations.
This is why Paul, the inventor of Christianity, spread the 'dogma' in urban centres - producing the distinction of pagan - a caricature of an unsophisticated country bumpkin that lived outside the city periphery and so remained immune to the diseases of mind and body that were being nurtured there.

Denying your past means denying your present and future, turning what could be to that what I wanted is the redemption of the soul. All these healing and meditation technique dont heal the mind and the body, self reflection and being honest with yourself.

You need to stand for something in life, otherwise you're like everyone else.

The american way of life, living on debt and when you default roll it back and issue more debt, lower interest rates, and easy money for real estate and equity firms.

Rinse and repeat. A new generation who dont have any dream except making money and spending it on things they dont like, cause they dont see any future.

Make america great again P45, cut taxes for his buddies and pay the interest due on 20 trillion in US as he starts refinancing it.

Your success depends on close relationships between businees people and government officials. It may be exhibited by favoritism in the distribution of legal permits, special tax breaks or other forms of state intervention.

Who do you know? And not what you can do?

Money is the Messiah.
Redeemer of men - a way of detaching from past.
With money your past does not matter....but only for others who share in the belief in the Messiah - outside if this relationship money is useless.
Try buying a dog's loyalty, or try purchasing fitness when you've inherited unfit genes.

The Magian Messiah is an alternative noetic world; symbol of the ideal that is to usurp the real.
It only works within those who share 'logos'...like astrology only means something within those who share in the conviction, and is nonsense outside of this relationship.
Nihilism is only 'powerful' among the initiated - the true believers - and totally impotent among the 'infidels'.
Those it can only affect via the proxy of the 'believers' who act as agencies of its ideology.

The performer must incorporate the audience in his performance....and it is 'magical' within the area of the performance.
It's field of effect is the minds that participate....it is entirely noetic.
So, the hypnotist can only hypnotize the 'believer' the one who accepts the 'truth' of the performance - in essence the believer hypnotizes himself - a self-fulfilling prophesy has the same effect - the placebo effect.

Money has a similar magical effect only among who share in the belief, and in the type of currency.
So, it only has 'power' within human systems that share in the same 'meme'. Money is totally impotent outside of its premises, other than through the proxy effect of those who are convinced of the same magical power of money.

A trembling spirit always wants to have a mediator, a proxy - i.e., a mentor, teacher, parent, god, icon, idol - between itself and reality - it wants to remain a slave, though it claims it is master, worshipping freedom.
A feminine spirit worships the masculine spirit she can never be; a slavish soul always declares itself absolutely liberated.
If not 'god,' then 'god of himself'.

A noble spirit stands before world, with no mediators, or proxies - no ideologies, no dead idols/icons. It has overcome even its own father.

Thats the truth Satyr, living in the socioeconomic contrivances, everyone is looking for their next prey and preyed upon.

Bodies for consumption, push up bras, fake lies, tinder dates, Swipe right, Swipe left, being convinced by your own self deception.

No self-worth other than usability in your job, no family to feel proud of.

Who controls the past, controls the future.

What is most incarcerating than a slave that convinces himself, using symbols/words, that he is already master of his prison cell, and already 'free' - walking 'outside' as he runs, flies, performs supernatural feats, in his own mind.
Such a mind would require external validation for his private reality - people, minds like its own, that will lend credence to its own delusions, because it has no other way to validate what he is so desperate to believe is true.

In lieu of a supportive phenomenon, it settles for the linguistic support of cosnciuos minds, sharing the same desperation - and then declares the entire universe a conciousness with the same needs and desires.

Like a woman with a 'push-up bra'. She knows she's selling a hyperbole, a lie....so she surrounds herself with other women doing the same, and with men-children who buy into the pretence, or pretend to, just to get-laid.
She calls the rest 'negative' vitriolic spirits, or Nazi Fascists, preferring supportive echo chambers.

Yet, her method still does not change the real size and shape of her breasts, exposing her true fitness. All she can do is settle for what she can get, or fool humans with needs.
The cosmos remains indifferent to her motives, and her intentions.

In the act of seduction - whether it be sexual or political - exaggeration, approaching deceit - is not only expected but it is necessary.
A female, especially, wants her submissions to be worth something.
Too much 'truth' and honesty is a passion killer.

Deception is part of the sexual game, among many species. This is why females have developed a keen eye for male deception, and males have evolved ways to circumvent this, if they cannot actually prove themselves worthy.
In pick-up clubs you can see the entire gamut of both female and male deception.

Deception sets-up the master-slave dynamic.
Both master and slave are engaged in a mutually determined deceit - each for his own purposes.
Both need the other to pretend in a shared lie.

There are two types of teachers, i.e, mentors, fathers.

The realist and the nihilist.

The realist teaches his students to make himself unnecessary, because what he teaches is really an uncovering of what is already present.
He teaches what the student can confirm independently and consistently, over the course of a lifetime, because what he teaches is observable, tangible, interactive, i.e., real.
His goal is to make himself obsolete, so that the student can move on, adding to what he offered; his goal is to make the students independent, validating his lessons for themselves, because what he teaches is in the world - of the world, for the world.

The Nihilist teaches what the student cannot validate for himself, but only understand theoretically, applying it in his mental scenarios.
He maintains himself as the essential conduit towards the validation of his teachings. He may do so intentionally or simply because he does not know any better. - being trapped in the same contexts himself.
usually an icon/idol, helps validate, for the students, what they can never perceive, nor test, nor disprove or prove; a sacred text is sometimes the centre-piece of the shared convictions, because the lessons lack a tangible, perceptible, independent source of verification, i.e., in reality.
The teacher offers the super-natural, the obscure, the mystical, all concepts that cannot be overcome, but only submitted to - in faith. He maintains his students in a perpetual state of dependence, though he may sell ti as 'freedom', or some empowering ideological concept, symbolized by a 'positive' symbol/word combination.
Lacking an independent, external standard of validation the students are left only with their convictions and their passions. Their own emotions become validations of the teacher's lessons, which he also accepted on similar grounds. The entire context is inter-subjective - a looping of cognitions, referring to an external conciousness, in the form of a abstraction, or some dead icon/idol - something that can never contradict the student's apprehensions - every understanding when it accept the principles, is acceptable; a flexible way to retain participation.
An indifferent and unforgiving standard - such as reality - would dishearten and turn many away, when the entire lesson is founded no the power of all-inclusivity - mass-appeal....the sensation of a communal agreement validating a shared delusion - each member becomes a validation of the shared belief for the other members.
words lose meaning, because they do not refer to an indifferent world, but to a malleable mental fabrication - retained as obscure as possible so as to allow many forms of private esoteric validation.

For the first type - the realist - validation will occur within reality - whether the student comprehends or appreciates it, or not.
Failure to understand the lesson will only lead to the student's suffering, and though it may pain the teacher, this is part of the process - tough love.
The teacher does his duty, and then it's up to the student to apply the lessons learned,a s best he/she can.

For the second, the welfare of the student is fundamental - sheltering.
He has to protect the students form their errors, and the impotence of his own lessons, so as to prevent them from waking-up to their insubstantiality, and their uselessness.
Some tricks may be blaming the world, or others, when the lesson inevitable fails to produce the expected, promised, results.
Students are trained in the fine arts of victimhood - though it may be masked in hyper-masculine power verbal displays and posturing; passive-aggression towards what fails to live-up to the lesson's principles....prevents the emergence of scepticism directed towards them. Everything and everyone is to blame, except the teacher or the lesson he taught. The fault is always external, preventing the internal from being bruised into lucidity -cruelly slapped into wakefulness.  
A general sense of narcosis is trained into the students - a self-induced immunity to all contrary evidence; a linguistic defensiveness is trained into the psyche, triggering naturally evolved instinctive defences.

A father teaching his son to fish will teach technique, baiting, and types of fish and methods used to catch fish.
A father that wants his son to remain dependent upon him, and worship him will teach about imaginary fish, living in theoretical waters, captured using extraordinary methods; and when the child grows hungry and fish do not materialize, he'll teach the child to blame the fish for not falling into his nets; blame the waters for his failures...as he purchases fish from those who learned how to catch real fish in the real waters of the real world; eventually he may teach his son to exploit those fishermen and eat of their bounty, trading for real fish his imaginary fantasy fish, he caught in imaginary waters, in his theoretical nets.
Parasitism.

Demosthenes wrote:

Nothing is easier than self-deceit. For what each man wishes, that he also believes to be true.

What can be more useful for self-deceit than to completely or selectively deny world all relevance, housing it in word-detaching semantics?

The further into sleep a mind falls, the more traumatic the event, must be, to wake it up.

The manimal, like the animal, learns from its master - learns to imitate him, though it cannot ever be him.
A female more than a male, it adopts and adjusts, changing through the imitation.

The instinct of self-preservation is so powerful that it can overpower every other impulse.
So, strong, among the mediocre, that it always does.

Nihilism is overwhelmed by the primal impulse for survival, at all costs.
Everything is sacrificed, e.g, reason, pride, integrity, sanity itself. An individual would rather go insane than face the consequences of perceiving what it cannot endure for any length of time.

Philosophy is not for the many - but for the rare among the rare - minority amongst minorities.
Such individuals appear as heartless monsters to their contemporaries.

When there's no way to confirm a hypothesis, for or agaisnt, then the motive behind the insistence must be explored in relation to the implications; if the hypothesis were correct, then what would the consequences be; if the hypothesis were proven incorrect then what would the implications be.

An indirect methodology is useful when no direct proof or disproof is available or possible.

Man cannot travel thousands of light-years to study a star, but he can study the effects of the star and indirectly establish a hypothesis based on what he does know - juxtaposing the known and unworkable with the known - triangulation = judgement; judgement/discrimination = conciousness.
We cannot know how an animal or another human thinks, but we can observe the consequences on his appearance and juxtapose it with our understanding of ourselves to establish a more probable hypothesis - this is how empathy works.
The relatively known - ourselves -is juxtaposed with the relatively unknown - other.

The problem with this method is that the judgement becomes convinced that the unknown other is a copy of the relatively known self - when self is not known at all, or is selectively known.
Just as empathy, for most, automatically results in sympathy or antipathy - depending on how much we like ourselves.
When the individual cannot place himself in perspective - over-estimating or under-estimating self - then all his subsequent judgement of another will be corrupted by this error.  
Similarly, when the individual can only perceive self as organized and rational and guided by some underlying motive he is cosnciuos of, he will assume that everything is similar to his self-assessment; if he thinks of himself as 'perfect' then the world will be perfect; if he thinks of himself as flawed, then the world will be so; if he considers himself 'evil' then the universe will be a state governed by 'evil, if he considers himself pure goodness he will project this as a universal truth; if he thinks of himself as free the universe will be governed by freedom; if he feels a slave, he will perceive the universe as a prison.

In this manner the 'real' will become a mirroring of the 'ideal'; the objective a reinfection of the subjective.

As an example, let's use the idea of a one-god.
Neither can it be proven nor disproved....but a more plausible hypothesis can be established by using the experienced and precedent.
No absolute has ever been perceived....like no unicorn has ever been seen or captured, therefore precedent, in this case the absence of one, establishes that the hypothesis that an absolute does not exist, just as a unicorn does not, is of a higher probability.  
What applies for god applies for absolute order, if we use quantum physics as a precedent that contradicts Newtonian physics.  
Though man can only use order, and can perceive order, the universe remains an unpredictable space/time - no precedent of omniscience may not exclude its development, but it establishes a plausibility.
Absolute order - determinism - implies omniscience as a logical possibility - one with no precedence.

The idea that the universe is governed with absolute laws, implies that omniscience is inevitable - determinism, understood as an absolute, implies that some future consciousness will be able to predict, with absolute certainty, all future events - an unprecedented hypothesis.
Like a flip of a coin can be absolutely determined if all the laws are mapped out and calculated by some super-computer.

My position is that a flip toss cannot be absolutely predicted because of chaotic energies - meaning a degree of uncertainty, no matter how much knowledge and processing is brought to bear, will remain.

The idea that existence is a repeating record that never stops turning, with absolute borders, playing the exact same songs in the exact same way, is an absurdity that uses a presumed absolute to cover up ignorance...in the hope of decreasing anxiety/fear.
Secularized Abrahamism remains nihilistic, motivated by the same human weaknesses.

Christianity never believed in 'free-will'. It used the idea to impose control through shame and guilt.
The Biblical story of Adam & Eve, is clear for anyone with a brain.
Free-Will, according to the narration, was 'given' by an absolute entity, as evidence of 'its' love, but it was not really freedom because it came with a caveat, and a warning - so no free-will at all.
Exercising 'free-will' condemned man, according to this bullshit story, to eternal damnation - falling from grace upon reality, to suffer existing.
And who gave man 'freedom'....as a Promethean spirit, but Satan.
A metaphor for self-consciousness. To be aware that you can break natural laws, that there is no absolute order - i.e., no god - exposes mankind to a level of existential anxiety no other animal can ever experience.

But Magians wish to return to their animal ignorance - to being a manimal- and there are priestly Magians who will shamelessly exploit this need, offering them a return to bliss....like the one Cypher, in The Matrix, accepted.



God is revealed to be the real Devil - The Matrix is god's order - The Architect is a warden.


But even in the movie 'choice' is presented as a 'glitch' in the program, forcing the architect to reprogram and reboot.

A desperate degenerate e prefers to believe in a universe arranged like a prison and of himself as a figment in god's imagination - or, if he is really 'smart' and over the infantile crap, as a program in the universal matrix, just doing what it was programmed to do in an infinite loop of loopiness.

In such adolescent minds - upgraded from infancy - Nietzsche's infinite return test, is really a mechanism of testing your 'acceptance' of your fate.
There's no way to 'change it' so all that remains is to stoically endure it, and hope that 'good things are in store' according to god's will - a test of your secularized Abrahamic faith.  
Will you bitch and whine, attacking god's plan....blasphemy agaisnt his absolute order - or will you cope and endure what he has in store for you?
Anything to avoid culpability.
They gave up on Abrahamism because it did not erase culpability, but used it to explain why man suffers - inherited guilt.
No they will accept nothing but absolute innocence - even if this means eternal incarceration. They must retain the other as someone they can bitch and complain about.

Imagine an existence with no Architect at all?
Who would the citizens of Zion fight agaisnt?
Who could they blame for their incarceration and suffering, but each other? Now here is the crux of the 'problem', you see.
how could you promote human uniformity and brotherhood, under such conditions? With no 'other' to unify the system would collapse into anarchy.

Do not the prison walls yield and pulsate with warm blood? Like a womb it beckons the wayward son, to find his way back to a motherly embrace he may have never known, but can imagine as the well lit, painted surfaces encasing him in a comforting certainty.
Does not a tired wanderer seek a chamber to sit and rest - calmly falling into slumber?
Men dream of dying while still alive - daydreams they mistake for real life experiences.

I knew there was something off about this JF character when he starting bragging about what "grade A pussy" he got.
It's always the first outward sign of an internal issue.
It's not the bragging, itself, it's the audacity of the claim.
He's a smart guy, but something is definitely wrong...especially after seeing his 'live-in' girlfriend.

I've posted so much over the years that I am repeating myself. It's also a sign of old-age - as humans grow older they tend to repeat what they know, or have experienced.
So, I bet I've said this before.
But, who cares?

The size of the self-flattery, and its focus, tends to reveal the source of the mind's greatest insecurity.
Like a fighter who favours one hand, or leans towards one direction, trying to protect it, usually reveals a past wound, or some kind of vulnerability - insecurity.
Bragging tends to act in the same way, but in regards to the psyche - mind.
Not only the size of the self-flattery, in relation to the performance, but its focus, revealed through the words being used.

Hyperbole always indicates some form of overcompensation - even in natural methods of signalling fitness through self-handicapping.
Hype - an effort to exceed what is present - apparent.
In linguistics exaggeration is extremely pretentious, in ways physical hyperbole can never match. The words/symbols being used usual exposes what effect one wishes to impress in the mind of another.
It always inflates so as to misdirect and/or to conceal the source of vulnerability.

It also reveals a willingness to go to extremes - a deep need/desire.
The size of the exaggeration revealing the size of the need/desire.

Desperate degenerates are desperate because they are degenerate, and they are degenerate because they are so very desperate. It's a vicious circle, that begins at some point as desperation and gradually develops degeneracy, as one desperate choice, necessitates others, which then necessitate more - a cascading process of degradation.  
It all begins with a need.
Even a desire has a need as its source.

Need = lack - product of temporal attrition, i.e., interactivity requiring constant replenishment.
Desire = by-product of need - successful gratification of needs, over time, accumulate excess energies - libidinal = which can be directed towards 'growth' (empowerment), or self-replication (reproduction, procreativity) and in humans to artistry (creativity).
Want = a memetic 'desire' usually relating to two, or more, needs. Manufactured desires, much in the same way Chomsky describes manufacturing consent.
Realm of psychology, marketing and politics.
Nihilism is entrenched in this area of ideological contexts.

Example: God, in the Abrahamic sense of the word. Here we have a 'want' that is misconstrued as a desire or need, lacking all external references, but deeply rooted in organic needs that have nothing to do with the divine.
God is a 'want' - a manufactured 'need/desire' - promising the satiation of two or more organic needs and/or desires.
Another example is the 'sport's car' - a self-handicapping signal.
there's no real immediate organic need for it, and there is a desire which lacks focus.
Here we have an artifice, an art-piece, that promises the satisfaction/gratification of two or more needs and/or desires, but since desires are a by-product of needs, then a core need is at the root of this purchase.


So braggarts expose 'desire' because these imply excess energies, so they wish to display their excess, as a peacock displays his self-handicapping tail feathers.  
But underneath all the plumage there's a deep organic need.
We all know why organisms evolve the signalling method of self-handicapping, but things are usually more complicated with humans, and their ability to cover their genetics in memetics, as humans cover their physical automated reactions with clothing.
Even in clothing we can read the individuals motive, in the choice of covering - his style, how he arranges the garments, what is being emphasized and what de-emphasized, etc....and all of it in relation to his/her movement, and how this organic gracefulness harmonizes with the garments; how the individual wears the coverings, supporting the image he/she, obviously, wishes to project to the world.

Similarly humility can also unintentionally reveal and/or conceal.

There's always a text, a subtext, and a pretext.
There are always three levels of data exchange, corresponding to the three platonic parts of the psyche: will, reason, pathos.
Body/Nervous System/Mind.
Appearance/Movement/Intent

Appearance = interpreted presence; method of revealing/concealing.
Movement = grace, relation to appearance, action as it relates to presence.
Intent = revealed through logos, exposing objective, in contrast to the previous two; symbols/words relative to movement and appearance.

Triangulation.

The size of the self-flattery, and its focus, tends to reveal the source of the mind's greatest insecurity.
Like a fighter who favours one hand, or leans towards one direction, trying to protect it, usually reveals a past wound, or some kind of vulnerability - insecurity.

It also shows dishonesty, either with others or with oneself as well, if it's done with hyperbole.

The fighter who is leaning a certain way to protect a weakness is honest about his weakness, he knows himself it is a weakness. Unless you want to play mind-games with your opponent and risk exposing your weakness - hiding it in plain sight so to speak by not protecting it or bluffing and showing symptoms of a different weakness as a form of trickery - it is also a conservative, a safe bet to protect your weakness. If you are stronger than your opponent then you play it straight. You only try to trick if you are either trying to gain an advantage because you can't win straight or you are so far ahead, so much stronger that you can afford to fool around with your opponent.

If J.F. makes a mistake and exposes his weakness that he tried to hide with lies then it's pretty much all over, game over. Taking high risks to gain an advantage. At least it's all over with the honest players at the table.
Time to find new honest players to play.
