Full Version: 'What Goes Around Comes Around' - The Golden Rule

1/ When fear, pain, privation + ridicule is used as coercion then dishonesty is conjunct due to it's efficacy in avoiding what we dish out.

2/ If what goes around comes around then we don't want to use fear, pain, privation + ridicule even if someone deserves it as a just dessert. (this is the element of forgiveness)

Don't expect people to become open and honest, old habits die hard.

3/ "The Lake Of Fire" = Bliss as a supportive element in the matrix wherein children play e.g. firewood.

4/ Ethical conduct (Golden Rule) supersedes morals. It is vanity to think one's own morals supersedes another's.

People with similar moral expectations will coalesce into sub-divisions much like Nation-States.

5/ A moral sub-division could be considered a "Haven" from the often chaotic state of pure ethics.

6/ The Freedom To Come And Go As One Chooses can be considered to be a state free of alliances. Marriage is a contractual alliance into a state of moral sub-division.

7/ Dreams and portents could be subliminal arguments to the ego, probably best disregarded.

8/ 'Entertainment' is the meaning of life.

9/ If you haven't done it to another it can't be done to you (blow by blow)

10/ We don't have to think about things we find disturbing.

11/ We are involved in the maintenance and expansion of a recreational envelope.

12/ Extra-dimensional Walk-ins often use this environment as recreation.

A state without contractual responsibilities could be considered quite primitive and devoid of entertainments taken for granted in the modern world.

It isn't for everyone.

Most of us will continue on our chosen paths towards goals and destinations prescribed by our accepted moral subdivisions and religious doctrines.

I firmly believe that reality is a harmless recreational drug and should be legalized.

But let's keep that between us. smile.gif

The Holy Ghost/Spirit is a Walk-in from another dimension giving precedent to both other dimensions and Walk-ins.

Is there an unwritten contract between mother and child? Is there an extra-dimensional oversight committee and welfare program? Are they performing their duties?
Burl
One might entertain a notion that tundra lichen would better serve in a capacity of child welfare oversight.
Burl
How would one then go about introducing lichen to the possibility of assuming the role of Spirit? Or how would one go about convincing the Holy Ghost that it is time to move on?
