  1. Depression

    Since the original 'perma-ban' got lowered to a 7 day suspension - I am pleased .
  2. Depression

    Errr ... I feel a bit disappointed that Seeking got banned . The one with me and three leaf was one of those ongoing forum arguments where one chooses to use 'tactics' instead of reasonable debate, Q & A , response, citations, etc . And eventually 3 leaf did a fake misquote as an extension of his ongoing tactics . Seeking just seemed to be in a smarmy mood or something and was posting a bit gnarly and probably went to far ... the 'comic' could have been posted UNDER the quote box instead of in it ( and I hope it wasnt a mistake that it went in the quote box ) . But I dunno , maybe you guys talked to him about it ? But 'ban hammer' doesnt really sound like a discussion . I have done it myself , to save space ; sometimes I will quote a whole post and highlight one small bit of it I want to respond to , other times I will just delete it and add ................. either side . In other forms of writing this signifies 'part quote' . What is worse is my dodgy computer has 'cursor jump' and can randomly insert part of text elsewhere , happens so often and for so long I just get used to correcting it . And yes, sometimes , some of my text I am trying has jumped into a quote box I had up on the page ! I have seen that twice and a third time , weeks after , I had missed it when it happened and saw it on a reread later . Ummmm .... so if you see something like that from me .... maybe check first instead of 'instant ban hammer' thanks . here is what 'cursor jump' looks like, uncorrected ; You have been happily typing away , you look down at the keyboard and keep typing and all oen cursor has jumped to another part of the text. f a sudden the frigg ( ' and all of a sudden the friggen cursor has jumped to another part of text. ' )
  3. Depression

    Ahhh, thats becasue it doesnt make it go away . The situation I described above seems more like a transitory bribe . 'Children of millionaires' ..... My Ex ! I know all about it . ( She dumped me in a nasty way , lost her inheritance and then I got one , totally out the blue Thats how things seem to work in the 'my' Universe . ) . Yes, many humble people are happy , I think the vacuum left in their ego allows a space for happiness to enter ? The happiest ( I mean Happy / fulfilled / at peace / excited / ' naturally suited to' .... that unusual combination of things a 'satisfied being' manifests ) people I have met are people that are doing the thing they love the most and are getting paid for it ie. as their career ). Or indigenous people, that seem to have not much materially , but have a deep spirituality and know their individual place in the world . However displaced indigenous that have this stripped from them can sink into deep depressions ( just like 'westerners' do under the same conditions ) .
  4. Depression

    Perhaps transitory . I remember watching a movie long ago . Some guy was working on an emergency hotline, people would ring up that had 'dire need' . One night, someone rings up ; ' I have had enough, I am going to kill myself ." The other offers him $50 bucks not to do it . No . So he keeps upping the amount until ..... ' Yeah , okay . " But thats a movie . This solution is more of the band aid type. It would not last IMO, and if the person is still depressed and unbalanced , what are they likely to use that money for ? IMO the root of depression is 'soul fulfillment ' not knowing and not practicing/fulfilling the reason / path / expression we came here for ; one's 'True Will' , Khvarenah .
  5. Story of Atlantis Part 1 - Ice Age and Deluge

    Mario Dantes ! One of the best crazy discussions ever on Atlantis was on Unexplained Mysteries Forum . Mario used to insist that Atlantis was in the middle of the Atlantic, then took off under locomotive plate tectonics and became Greenland. All based on an old map that showed south American continent upside down. Ooooo , the discussions about that !
  6. The Abyss

    I do. And also I say we understand the subjects you mentioned and alluded to . Your problem seems to be that you present your personal and unique take on certain things pertaining to your own psyche and then attribute them to those things . When we say, no, that is not the correct definition of those things and processes , you seem to think we are denying your experiences or not understanding the things YOU are attributing them to . You cant seem to get this , so i will offer an example . A; I wake up each morning with a stiff neck , I think I have impetigo . B; Impetigo is a skin rash / syndrome. You probably got a sore neck in the morning from the way you are sleeping , try changing your pillow . A ; No. Its impetigo ..... impetigo means a sore neck. You dont understand me nor believe what is happening to me . A; (being 'nice' ) Ummmm, no, stop being stupid, read up on it, get an education, and try and address and fix what is actually causing the suffering . OR A ( being an arsehole ) Ohhh , you probably right , here rub some of this impetigo ointment on your neck ( he he he ) .
  7. Evidnece for the super natural

    Hmmm .... okay lets look at the supra-natural then . I guess then this thread will be ; ' Evidnece for the supra-natural'. But first , Draco-San , it appears the mods have finished their deliberations and you have been 'restored'. Welcome to that rare club . Anyways, yes, I have evidnece* for the supra-natural . . or is that 'ultra-natural ' . . . eeee urrrmmm , I'll have to get back to you on that . * 'evidnece' is nw a term in the Oxford Dictionary , its meaning is ; a collection of processes that one feels validates their personal belief systems
  8. The Abyss

    Ohhhh we understand all right ! You aint the first puppy in this rodeo .
  9. Story of Atlantis Part 1 - Ice Age and Deluge

    ... and it is very disingenuous to pretend that Atlantis was in Dubai when it is really in the Bahamas ! Atlantis Bahamas You can read all about it here ; ABOUT ATLANTIS https://ssqq.com/travel/bahamas2010atlantis.htm The one in Dubai is merely an unusual and complex geological feature built by ancient corals in the Mesozoic Era ;
  10. Story of Atlantis Part 1 - Ice Age and Deluge

    Its not that I dont like the idea .... If I could I would love to live ....
  11. Story of Atlantis Part 1 - Ice Age and Deluge

    As much as I dont want to criticise EVERYTHING here ..... ummm that isnt in Dubai ... so WRONG ! .
  12. Evidnece for the super natural

    Only if the ghosts are doing drugs .
  13. The Abyss

    Because we dont pander to your prejudices ? If you remember back to when you first started posting here, it mostly about your feelings and your difficulties you have with mental health and stability . That was fine , and people responded in a helpful way , or tried to be helpful . But then YOU warped it and started putting esoteric terms on to your experience and insisting your experience was THE valid definition of those esoteric terms and then advising US , who where formerly sympathetic to your condition on these subjects that you seem totally confused about and some of us a fairly well learned in . Then , of course, you started 'playing the posting game ' ( evasion, distraction, not answering relevant questions , etc . ) Do you realise how many times we have seen this pattern ?
  14. Evidnece for the super natural

    Then you are back to my question - which you won't answer - James Randi has good experience in exposing supernatural claims - so do 'ghost hunters' . Both are 'professionals' .
  15. Evidnece for the super natural

    Thats the thing he doesnt want to address or answer me about . Do you know why ? Because what he desires to be reality was filmed and witnessed by 'professionals' and that was always touted as giving the claims some validity . But 'professionals ' in WHAT ? Doest matter .... one had a PhD . Most people realise this as well , in that they dont call a plumber when the friggin lights blow out !
  16. Evidnece for the super natural

    Qualified in what profession ? - the question he dare not answer !
  17. Evidnece for the super natural

    Ooooo ! What a giveaway !
  18. Evidnece for the super natural

    Well, this thread is all about ' evidnece ' .
  19. Evidnece for the super natural

    Now its the old 'edit previous posts' tactic and 'bump the content '
  20. Evidnece for the super natural

    Unfortunately , I dont have to imagine it .
  21. The Cool Picture Thread

    I went to a sacred thangka exhibition at the Australian Art Gallery once . A special exhibit that showed rare and special pieces , some needed special permissions to go on public display , they where considered ' psychologically volatile ' and the viewer was pre asked to consider things before entering the smaller area where these particular images where in isolation . Wow ! One was all black and painted only with red yellow orange flames , it was huge menacing skeleton with bones of flames . Anyway , thing is there was a printed rave in there and it said in some meditations and the reason some of these thangka where special , the monk is isolated in total darkness for some time doing their meditations and then they are led out and the first thing they see is a huge wall size 'startling' thangka . I am imagining 3 days in a totally dark place and then suddenly - light , and being dazzled by that above 'revelation' . Zap !
  22. Evidnece for the super natural

    Wow, thats what we need ! A 'blank post form ' , just fill in the minor details but follow this strategy ; Appeal to authority; ... ( insert your own appeals and authority here ) False Dichotomy .... ( list them here ) Strawman arguments .... ( and so on ) appeal to hypocrisy ( you refuse to acknowledge the points that nullify your argument) ...... Special Pleading (Moving the goalposts in this case) .... Confirmation bias ..... Belief bias ..... Backfire effect ...... In group bias ....... and tie it up with a big bow of Psychological projection . now click on 'submit reply' .
  23. Evidnece for the super natural

    I certainly reject it , if this is the best you could do . You have avoided , shifted subject given irrelevant examples and totally ignored and refused to answer the pertinent questions that challenge your theories . But still go on with them asserting the unproven points in them , eg. 'team of professionals' ... again ! And I know full well why you dont want to answer this point .... I am way ahead of ya ! Anyone that HAS TO discuss or debate like that - immediate rejection of the points they are trying to make .
