Haha isn’t that the whole point? Self-immolation to allow the already-existing peace-on-earth to become apparent?
Ehm… just step back for a second if you will… you are claiming I have an “adulation of god-like Richard and an ideal of an omniscient actually free person”, and that this has corrupted me, because I, uhm… agree with Richard that the Earth is not flat? That it isn’t black? That it’s constantly rotating as opposed to being fixed/static/unmoving? Exactly which part of the article isn’t factual?
Well 329 is a lot of posts to read but you ought to be better-informed before making such accusations, to wit:
As the premise is invalid, the conclusion doesn’t follow.
Hummm… in effect you are saying that to be in accordance with the facts/aligned with facticity, is equivalent to putting on handcuffs and locking oneself in a cell door??
Is perhaps what is bothering you that you aren’t able to change what the facts are? That the facts aren’t malleable according to your wishes and desires? You do realize that’s just the way the universe works?
Also do you realize being aligned with the facts is what leads to experiences such as these?
I might suggest getting back to a place where you experience the flavor of what you reported here ^, and then re-evaluating these matters.
How is recognizing something to be a fact, equivalent to adorning and burdening oneself with new layers of identity?
Also very salient to me in your response is that you haven’t actually pointed out anything unfactual about what Richard wrote in the article, or what I’ve written here.
If you’ve identified something that Richard wrote that isn’t a fact then now is a good time to bring it up!
