  1. At this point if aliens have been visiting us we should have better footage of them than that. Those fuzzy videos and pictures don't prove anything at all. The thing in the video could be anything. There are reports from around the world.
  2. Omg. So when the cop has a bullet in his head, then the cop should start using his weapon? Don't even answer..
  3. He had a gun in his hand. And he started lifting it up. Of course the police will shoot him then. The police must react fast when a suspect is about to shoot. If he had been over 18 then there wouldn't have been any news at all about this incident.
  4. @machiavelli The core problem is of course that they believe that hallucinations are real. And their answer is: "Make yourself hallucinate something by for example taking psychedelics and then believe that whatever you hallucinated is true/the truth. Problem solved." You can't win a debate when it comes to personal beliefs. Group A believes that hallucinations are real/the truth and group B believes that they aren't real/the truth.
  5. My opinion: If the fighters like the job, and the customers like the product, then what is the problem? Yes their bodies gets damaged, but what if that's a cost which they don't mind paying? People should have the right to do whatever they want with their bodies, as long as it doesn't harm others against their will. Let's play with the idea that I want to be a MMA fighter, but I wouldn't be allowed: that would make me pissed. And also the customers would get pissed.
  6. This is the best book I have ever read. I haven't finished it yet though. How is it possible that our society doesn't know this stuff.. All our "brilliant scientists" are wrong. What the fuck.. Stuff makes much more sense now.
  7. That idea is deeply problematic, and the implications would be crazy, and it would go against all intuition and against everything. It would mean that I could torture people and they wouldn't feel anything, etc.
  8. You don't always lucid dream.. But okay, whatever. I think maybe the biggest difference is that there are no other conscious beings in dreams, while here there are other conscious beings.
  9. In this waking state you know the existence of this waking state+dream state (because you remember previous dreams). In dream state you can only be aware of what's happening right there and then. You don't have a memory of this waking state, you don't even know that this waking state exists. So that should show that this waking state is higher than dream state. Because here you know the existence of 2 states, (or 3 if you count with deep sleep state), while in dream state you know the existence of only 1 state (the dream state itself).
  10. This is what happens if you aren't a Nato member.
  11. Sanctions and words, I don't think west will start ww3 over Ukraine.
  12. Yeah, in dreams "other beings" are completely unconscious, and in this reality other beings are conscious.
  13. Yes and maybe Santa Clause exists. Anything can be claimed without proof, and it's basically impossible to disprove it. Oh well, maybe you are right, I don't know. (I'm not allowed to disagree with anyone here, if I do I will get accused of gaslighting.)
  14. In my opinion that argument doesn't work because we are now talking about "the fact that we are dreaming". So it should be possible for me to wake up now simply by making a effort to realize that I'm dreaming. So now I will spend a minute on realizing that I'm dreaming and make a effort to wake up..... Nope, nothing happened, nothing changed, I didn't wake up. I've tried this many times. In a dream this little exercise would instantly wake me up. I've done it many times in dreams, it takes a few seconds to wake up once I've realized I'm dreaming. And also: into what kind of real reality would I wake up into, if I wake up from this dream? But what do I know, these were just my 2 cents. I just wrote this during my boredom.
  15. Weird things start happening when you go meta on even the teaching. It's like killing Buddha on the road. You become alone.
  16. Oic I should accept that thought. We accept some thoughts and don't accept some other thoughts anyway.. But yes maybe it's good to be aware of that stuff.
  17. Of course racial bias in dating preference isn't racism. “Racism is a disease in society. We’re all equal. I don’t care what their colour is, or religion. Just as long as they’re human beings they’re my buddies.” — Mandawuy Yunupingu The people I dislike most are criminals, people who harm other beings, and people who are super racists, in short: bad people. "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." Then why do you accept that thought?
  18. Unfortunately, that quote seems to be a fake one. But there's other real quotes from other scientists.. Always need to do some fact checking on quotes..
  19. You just sent a question to the universe. And this is your answer from the universe. (This is a different take on it.)
  20. People need to buy their quota of junk food. If McDonald's would disappear then there would be a huge hole left, and something else would take its place. There's not much potential for McDonald's to evolve on the junk food area, because junk food is junk food. But they do lots of other good things, they care about and take action in: environmental stuff, tenable meat production, packaging and recycling, undertaking for families, possibilities for young people, people, how the food is produced, organic coffee and milk, well being of animals, employees, more vegetarian food, support local farming, support sports for young people, environmental friendly transports, charging for electric cars on the parking lots, minimal food waste. So McDonald's is a excellent company. It's better than most other companies. And no I'm not hired by them.
  21. I guess my point was that there is more people like me. There are many people who like eating McDonald's food. So why would McDonald's be bad? People only do stuff which they enjoy doing. If McDonald's wouldn't exist something else like it would exist. If selling junk food would be completely illegal then people would make junk food at home. The only way to stop people from eating junk food would be to kill all people. Then no one would eat junk food.
  22. I'm pretty sure some people in this forum say that. Maybe the thing about my bloodwork is true, but I don't care, and I would be glad to die prematurely. So from my point of view, why would it be foolish?
