Mystic-heads? You make it sound like we are freebasing some crazy new drug.

Freebasing mysticism! Woohoo!  :hotidea:

2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

Mod Edit: Flaming is against the rules in PS&P. If this is all you have to add to the discussion, then don't post here.

OK, here is the deal. I have an object next to my computer. Let me know what you need other than my address to locate it astrally.

When you have the image, let me know and I will send the image to both Diploid and Veritas.

Here is what you must get to win:

Approximate size: Marble, ping pong ball, orange, softball, basketball, beach ball. The object is not necessarily round or spherical.

Main color: Red, blue, green, yellow, orange, black, white, gray purple.

Main Composition: Wood, paper, plastic, metal, cloth, glass, animal, vegetable, mineral.

Description: What the fuck is it.

Though I trust Dip and V, when we get closer, I will add some controls to prevent collusion.

Are you down?

Note that I did this once before and opened it to everyone and no on got close.

Why did you not respond to my efforts to discuss alternative explanations for the phenomena listed in Wilcox's "Disclosure Endgame"?  In this thread?

You stop discussing it with me.  Why?


I think we had friendly closure, no?

I made my position clear, that from a logical observation it was not a rocket... You decided to state that you also intuitively believe that it was not a rocket, but it is POSSIBLE that it could be. I felt no need to argue such a possibility, because I am open minded. So what's the problem? Is it that "skeptics" just love to argue and think they can prove everything!? :laugh:

I dont think you understand what being a skeptic means.  In fact, Im sure you dont.

Skepticism revolves around doubt, the very opposite of 'proving everything'.

I'm still confused what this debate is about? Please ask me a question and I will answer it! :etjesus:



First tell me why you are posting this to me? Did I mention mystic heads in this thread? Refresh my memory please. Am I the only one around here who doesn't need meds?


I apologize for being lazy and not using quick replies. I suppose I falsely assumed your highly rational brain could deduce the comment was directed towards whoever said "mystic-head". :cool:

I've been thinking about this, wouldn't that mean that the role "OrgoneConclusion" acts as a force of natural selection.  Selective pressure is being placed on us mushrooms.  I've developed an anaology:  Donsider the fungal lifestyle compared to a mind.  All of our interacting minds act as mycelia--a giant mat of intertwining hypael connections.  And every now and then, amongst all the low grade background activity, haploid hypae collide!  Conflict between ideas and egos!  How will it be resolved?!  The conflict resolves/dissolves it self into the horizontal salsa.  Diploid is fused from the friction and pinning begins.  A fruit body is made--a shroomerite pops up!

By the mechanism of natural selection fungi have developed this reproductive system.

By the mechanism of natural selection shroomerites have developed these forums.

Ecologically speaking, the role of "OrgoneConclusion" plays another role:  as predator--



I can totally accept the need for that role in that sort of biological comparison.

I'm very interested in this statement: "Education is a painful process which brings one into conflict with cherished beliefs."  Is there always conflict with pre-held notions?
