This thread seems pointless. Saying words just for the sake of it?
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe

It's about our human limitations, to think smaller is the way we been thinking all along,,, all post I've seen here are small minded in a sence.

Being as we're the only things we know that think as we do, I don't see how one can ascribe the term 'smaller'. Smaller than what? We seems to just think and be governed by our thoughts as they are, and I'm fact I find what is talked about here to be anything other thank small minded. I come here as people here tend to discuss the big questions, not the small ones.
Is there another point that I'm missing here?

Smaller as in not the smartest, human pride in intelligence I find over rated, i guess I can see your point in not calling any one's thoughts as "small",,,but my point was that they are certainly not "big"

Do you have any suggestions for how we might change that?

To change small thoughts into big thoughts? I guess it would take a non-dual approach, just forget I ever started this thread and see stupid people and wise people with equanimity.

It's probably my Aspergers talking but I don't see what you mean by that last line. Could you expand upon it please?

If we're all equal, than all are big/wise.

Not quite. The unknown can become the known in time. So the correct answer would be the unknowable

There is something humans cannot know. And its "what happens after death". Shoot some 4-aco-dmt into your vein and you will get an idea.
There ya go. Fucking smart ass.
-------------------- Something there is mysteriously formed, Existing before Heaven and Earth, Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging, All-pervading, unfailing, I do not know its name; I call it tao. If forced to give it a name, I call it Great (ta). Being great, it flows out; Flowing out means far-reaching; Being far-reaching, it is said to return. It's just a shot away..
