pakua said:Bruce:
"Actually, I agree with this, if belief is pushed to extremes, and ones singular leaves no room for another's singular. I also understand that creativity and insanity share the same space. It is also insanity to fear that everyone with a belief is out to kill you, or that every kid with a toy gun will become murderer. I believe that’s called paranoia."
Chris also said this in the same paragraph:
"It is your singular that imagines but in that imaging, without training re the properties and methods of the particular we can wander off into gaga land and that can be threatening ;-) (creativity and insanity share the same space ;-))"
I was trying to say, in any argument we have, we are threatening and/or are threatened by the other. It doesn't have to be as extreme as you mention above, although it often goes there. I don't think paranoia is relevant to the concept as a whole.
autumn said:Interesting. Well, why in the world have you kept your brilliance from Dr. Chalmers? Why have you not allowed him to see the error of his ways? When he could be doing real work like investigating IDM ABX8TY. Certainly this is a travesty for the species if the knowledge is kept hidden. I say allow Dr. Chalmers to see the work! Bring it to him. Let him see the light and make adjustments to his research, so the human race can stop floundering, for God's sake.
martin said:Pakua, I can understand your concerns. But if you are worried about my debates with Chris (I cannot speak for others) then well, how shall I say it, I often use 'pepper' and so does Chris.
That's how we do it and it is less serious than it may sound. It's just our way of communicating (!) with each other.
Think of it as a game of chess.
It's okay because Chris is not easily offended and neither am I.
I appreciate Chris and I like him a lot, I'm sure he knows that.
lightofreason said:I was asked by an academic to do a paper on this for the Journal of Psychological Type and when it is in an acceptable form, I will (I have a draft sitting on my system for a while but it needs updating to cover the XOR material and has to conform to APA style for papers etc and I got pissed off with it all and so have not done things for a while)(d) Properties of categories of human emotions. This work is progressing well and its integration with the IC through the Emotional IC is going well. When combined with the MBTI work we get into emotion-driven 'types' etc. These types are of course coming out of the realm of the PARTICULAR within which develops the singular and so a 'randomiser' allowing for 'novel' behaviours of a type.Chris.
autumn said:... 3) There is no such thing as understanding what another person is thinking or asking about the future. Such things don't work.
lightofreason said:Thus the MBTI etc picks up our particular natures but not our singular natures. Same thing with the IC categories. (it is possible, with analysis of personal emotions, as in those developed with one's sense of self and so dependent on that sense for expression, to singularise this but that area needs a lot of work!)
bruce_g said:Meanwhile The Wall just keeps on truckin'. It is amazing, really.
martin said:Anyway, I have other things to worry about at the moment.
I move east next week and they were playing(?) with bombs there recently. Bombs that might not only elicit a spectacular paradigm shift but also cause an involuntary and unfortunately quite real out of body experience ..
