Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

What I wrote is Putin's own justification for the war. Do you believe his justification? What source can you cite about rampant Nazism in Ukraine which Russia controlled most of the twentieth century as a part of the Soviet Union and now has a Jewish President? Here are a couple of Western sources:...

Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

Now threats to Moldova. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/fivepoints/five-points-on-russia-threats-to-expand-its-war-to-moldova It doesn't even border Russia but borders western Ukraine. The rationale is another oppressed Russian-speaking minority. Maybe every country should be allowed to invade another...

Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

No matter what the relationship between the US and Ukraine is, there is hardly justification for the invasion of Ukraine and mindless shelling of civilians. Apparently Russian TV is calling for the invasion of the Baltics too. Certainly you don't believe the opposing view - Putin's rationale of den...

Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

Dana and Jim: You (and I would hope Bernardo) are aware, surely, that there is an opposing view to the Ukraine war, in which the US and its puppet regime in Kiev are the bad guys and the Russians are the good guys (trying to end the war the US started in 2014, with 10,000+ killed)? In attempting to...

Re: New documentary on remote viewing

I have personally had the same experience and believe it to me somewhat remarkable but not supernatural. People from a common background and history engaged in a common activity are likely to think/say things that are similar. There is a difference between "similar" and "literal/exac...

Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

Keep in mind that Bernardo's piece was somewhat a recanting of his own previous pro Putin's views. The flawed mindset and prevailing paradigm at question here has much to do with power, control, and how humanity organizes itself. People of any metaphysical belief can be evil. The Russian Orthodox c...

Re: Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism

Bernardo's latest is Evil abstraction: the psychology of totalitarianism All governments have some evil with the good but some governments have more evil than good.

Re: New documentary on remote viewing

Maybe you should take a look at Rupert Sheldrakes website and his article I personally know for a fact that telepathy is real: once in a while I get the knowledge of exactly and literally what my family members are going to say before they say it. It's like I can "hear" in my mind the phr...

Re: Big bang

I've had a question that's been on my mind for a long time. How can something come out of nothing? Nothing can come from non-existence. What does anthroposophy think about the big bang? Steiner wasn't alive at the time of the big bang theory, and couldn't have said anything about it. :?: The questi...
