Since you've made a forum for introductions, I suppose I should make one. I'm a metaphysician and a fan of Linda's work for many years. I walk a strange and narrow path, and like many of you, I don't always know why I'm here. I would tell you more but it's been a long (though bright and beautiful!) day here in Cripple Creek, and I'm late for a date with the Sandman.

I saw in another thread that you study law -- which intrigues me because I've studied it a bit, myself.

Now, why?

I took the question to
mean spiritually...

I noticed how gracefully
you were maneuvering through
the forums, and it made me
feel that you had been here
for a while..

The Truth is Mighty
and above all things!

What I got from
a few definitions..
Is the belief that
you must observe,
experience, and
then with logic and
common sense you can
find Truth...

Meaning there is no
Truth in the unknown,
or unseen, lacking
material experience
No Truth in the metaphysical!

Yikes!
giggles

I could not find your
definition...

I love Learning and Growing!

I would disagree with that last statement, Randall -- though I expected a response in that vein from a Capricorn. Positive law is as concretely defined as are words themselves (though definition is an endless circular morass, in itself -- to my everlasting consternation). Natural Law is too "ethereal" for an Earth sign's tastes. That's basically what you've said, is it not?

I wouldn't say "perception and biases", I would say "commonly-held perceptions" -- commonly held by all but sociopaths and psychopaths, that is. Empathy is intrinsic to all healthy and fully-functional human beings, and it is empathy that is the basis for morality. Call that a bias, if you like, but it's still unquestionably within each one of us -- which means it doesn't need to be pedantically defined by words (which are finite/limited and can never ultimately contain reality, anyway). No one needs to be told that murder is wrong; no one needs to be told that rape is wrong; no one needs to be told that theft is wrong (again, sociopaths and psychopaths excepted). Conscience is intrinsic to humanity (and conscience is the voice of empathy).

There is a man named Kal Molinet, in Virginia, who regularly goes out into the streets and helps others realize that Man's laws are not needed and are actually a hindrance rather than a help to natural, productive self-actualization (life). He does this first by asking individuals if they, too, share these commonalities of empathy/morality, and I seriously doubt he has ever received an answer in the negative. He speaks very quickly, but if you pay attention closely to this interchange, it demonstrates what I'm describing very well and in a very *ahem* down-to-earth way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1-yCYtvt10

Don't get triggered by the social baggage that's attached to a particular word, mmmkay? I'm expecting better of you here. Mad Max is just a movie.

There is a contact option

Let's describe a sick situation plainly:

For years I've watched j.w.hop emotionally abuse those who are intellectually slower and emotionally softer. And this is done under the banner of, and besmirches the name of, Linda Goodman, who doesn't deserve to be associated with anything so vile. Randall ennables this while satisfying his cold-hearted Capricorn ambition: to own the biggest Linda Goodman site going, as he swore he would when he and his nasty little troll cohort were kicked out of CE.

You know what I've discovered about myself, over the years? There's no "give up" in me. Not a drop.

And goat-boy's biggest mistake has been to try to rudely ignore my sincere concerns. He thinks he's in such a safe position of power that he can get away with it -- that he can get away with all the wrongness I just described. They both do. How short-sighted! Like too many, they seem bent on refusing to see the Truth until they're given no option.

Rudeness, is something
Linda wouldn't approve
of!
Global Unity 2.0 is
basically the forum
That has this kind of
conversation, and I
blame it on politics...

I've been here since
2005, know about CE..

Over 13 years Randall
has earned my Respect..

I found
me
here, in Lindaland, not CE

Why lower yourself to
a level of disrespect!

Our actions have re-Actions,
undertake to do all with
Love and Understanding. ...

And again this sounds personal!
There is the
Contact Us option at the bottom
of the forums...

But -- why do you not ask this of jwhop? Why is he the only exception to the Golden Rule here? Why is he untouchable here?
