This is another proof that Skepticism and Critical-thinking is highly needed in today's "anything-goes, woo-woo New-Agey spiritualism" post-modern era!
So people won't be too gullible, naive,...
Just my speculation/guess, but could it be because mostly of the whole "2012" and "December 21 2012" that *nothing* major so far -as very often prophesied/channeled/theorized in this forum- or even...
@recap1: can you please be more specific and detailed what do you mean exactly? thank you.
Then we should consequently also question that. ;)
To me it seems you just keep repeating how...
So...where are the asteroids?
Nothing seems to happen on 3/04/2013..
any other new 'prophecy' (or perhaps better termed: 'fantasy') this time, I wonder?...
@Freed Fox : thank you so much for creating this thread, and being really bold and straight-to-the-point, and also for being critical!
I'm sure if all people are honest with themselves in this...
@seantimberwolf: I'm really glad for your honesty.
at this point of time now, I truly really appreciate real, honest, and bold people like you much more Now, than those who are constantly being...
@zebowho: Skepticism is precisely needed in today's "anything-goes" lack of critical thinking era, because without it, we -humans- would keep believing anything that has no real basis & no...
no, that's just what you *want* to believe,
but what you/we *want* doesn't always have to be a reality.
for example, I always *want* to become a bird and fly to the sky above. but I still...
Fair enough,..I will admit it's my mistake, in this part.
I sincerely apologize.
@Beren: thank you.
I am simply just being honest with my skeptical point of view, because of too many "spiritual B.S" that is the result of all these 'woo-woo positive-thinking LawofAttraction'...
@ulli : Well,..again, critically/logically and honestly/boldly speaking:
1) first, do I sound like a robot or an AI to you? in creating/composing all these well-thought posts and sentences?..
2)...
@Abductee S : very critical comment!
my thoughts exactly.
thank you for sharing your thoughts!
(PS: I have bolded & colored part of your words/sentence, in order to emphasize your main,...
@zebowho : and that's actually the problem.
1. How can I (or anyone) know 100% for sure that my (or anyone's) "profound experience" is not just a mere brain-trick, or delusional, or a mere...
@RMorgan : just want to say I always like your posts. you seem to be a critical, sensible & logical person as well. glad to have people like you in this forum, to 'balance' things out!
My mention of Occam's razor (quoted by Carmody) was made on another thread at (18.38 my time) 40 minutes before this post (19.19 my time). This is hard data.
As someone who is (consciously at...
This is also my main reason for requiring "evidence/proof" , as I have just replied to @panopticon in this thread, here I'll repeat again my main reason/points, for all people in this Avalon forum to...
@Enishi : but, critically speaking, that could also simply be the result of a placebo-effect, where your mind/brain "tricks" you into *believing* what you WANT to believe!
what do you think?
I removed the red "critical post" exclamation point from this thread, and moved this thread from the General Discussion sub-forum into the Spirituality sub-forum, where some (not all) of the...
all the 'beautiful' and 'spiritual' words/jargons aside, in reality, no matter how "feeling good" and Imaginations we're trying to do,..it still won't be able to completely change the *physical*...
