Do I get a cookie if I can guess what you mean?
The confusion will become clear to you. But let's simply continue our dialog as if my first post hasn't been written. Let's suppose I started directly with my atheistic description. How would that dialog proceed?findingblanks wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 7:47 pm Cleric, so when your immediate response to my question was:
"You've once again taken a sentence in isolation and try asking questions about it in a way which the whole quote especially warns against..."
You did NOT think you had understood my question?? That confuses me. It seems you at least thought you had a reasonable take on what I was supposedly doing 'again.' Genuinely confused.
It doesn't matter what you call it, the meaning of what you are doing is clear to everyone but you. There should not be 2 pages of comments without you revealing your secretly intended point in the OP. That only comes from someone posting for their own amusement and not to reach a genuine understanding with others. But let's see how psycho-cryptically you can avoid Cleric's last question...findingblanks wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 6:27 pm You don't know what 'psychoanalysis' means. Or you are using it colloquially and then, yes, you constantly are psychoanalyzing. Either way, I stand by my request and my claim that he of course can justify ignoring it. That's how the world works. It can be nice and fun and frustrating, especially if you know the right way that people need to respond to you. Soul recently used the word 'goad' in this group. He talked about his own goading of somebody. I asked my co-workers if they think there is a wide range of interpreting what 'goading' would be. They all said yes. I agree. I love that word. And I really appreciate a good goading, in both directions. It feels very different than shadow projections. But we probably all agree that there can be a fuzzy boundary when the one merges into the other. That's gotta be okay. I know, I know...some will claim they know exactly when one is happening and the other isn't. And, yes, I admit that I think that kind of certainty is an expression of their sweet ol' shadow. And mine. Thanks.

Thanks Ashvin! If you can find another spot for us to chat your style, link me to it and it can be like our old romping grounds.
Yes, it's the latter. My atheist doesn't like the idea of spooky 'beings'. He seeks scientific alternative for the words. Something with energy, vibrations, information.findingblanks wrote: ↑Thu Dec 16, 2021 3:58 am Cleric said,

Okay, it sounds like your atheist either accepts Anthroposophy ("When the Anthro(Man)Sophia(Wisdom) is embraced...") or they are saying something like, "So the experience that an Anthroposophist refers to as embracing the Anthro(Man)Sophia(Winsdom)..."
Before I waste our time I should make sure you meant the latter.
