I finally managed to log on. I don't know why I had problem unless it's because I'm an IDIOT - always the most likely explanation for anything that doesn't work - RIGHT?
Except I AM at a new IP address. So that's could be it too. You
think?
First off, I didn't post as Neptune. I don't even own a f-ucking phone and why the f-uck would I pretend to be someone else if I could, or wanted to, create a new account? Do I strike you as a SHY or EVASIVE personality? I couldn't post under ANY user. Why? Because YOU BANNED MY IP!
Further evidence for the report that some people are using their EGOS instead of their EYES.
Second off, the reason I wanted my posts restored (see below) was not because I am so ATTACHED to them (peter doth PROJECT too much) but because any witnesses to this fiasco called a thread no longer had the EVIDENCE to judge for themselves IF MY BANNING WAS JUSTIFIED.
At the risk of HYPERBOLE, do you think maybe the NAZIS used the same sort of well-meaning and self-justifying logic? Were they a similar sort of SELF-RIGHTEOUS "SPIRITUAL" CONTROL FREAKS? Instead of just reacting, how about
thinking about it?
Intro to this forum:
Think of this place as a virtual ashram and consider these words by Richard Rose: "We need a spot on earth upon which to meet. A homing ground, but not an intellectual prison. A library and clubhouse of philosophers. A place with quiet rooms where a person can be alone if he desires. A clearinghouse of contacts, or a place where a cardfile might be kept with names of those who wish to be contacted.... Many people with philosophic drive feel no compulsion to mingle with anyone except their colleagues. But these people must be unaware of future growth opportunities for themselves, and they must be unaware that they must help others in order to grow themselves."
So much for good intentions - the noble road ended up here, in a sad little opium den of spiritual pigmies. My brief foray at this forum has confirmed that spiritual seekers are the biggest SQUARES there are, spiritualized tosspots keeping up with the Jones by having a spiffy front lawn while the kids get scabies and all their teeth fall out.
My point isn't to ream out individuals - that would be pointless, even if it's fun. My point is to get at the A-SSHOLE of the problem, which is EGO. The most putrid and slippery kind of ego of all is the SPIRITUAL ego, which is an a-sshole that puts on lipstick and gets you to French kiss it. And what do egos do when they get together? Suck each other off all day long - you stroke my balls and I'll stroke yours. That's clearly what's going on here. Smug, smarty-pants comments and some half-baked civilized "debate." Civilized debate doesn't tear down the lying facade of self-importance. Only head-on collision does that. Not collision between egos, which is just the flip-side of ball-stroking, but when YOUR ego collides with what you actually know is the godd/amn TRUTH. This is spiritual BATTLE, not a f-ucking knitting circle.
I came to this forum for one reason - to promote my blog. That was why I posted this thread in the marketing section, before it was MOVED, MINUS my original posts, to the general discussion area. If that doesn't strike the moderators as WEIRD, underhand behavior revealing some sort of (unconscious) AGENDA, then I give up trying to pipe these rats to reason. I must just be from a different planet.
My intention
wasn't (originally) to expose the spineless hypocrisy of spiritual halfwits - that has been an unexpected bonus. Since it's what happened, I may as well set the record straight so there is the option at least for others to see and address the POSSIBILITY that this is a corrupted, controlling space posing as an "open-minded spiritual discussion group," and that there is another, unconfessed agenda afoot.
The written response to my vaporized posts has been weak. Posts are deleted and the poster is banned. Then a couple of mealy-mouthed penisswingers hurl insults at someone who can't even even access the site to read them, much less respond. Doesn't that about sum up the situation? I DON'T GIVE A FROG'S WEEK OLD JISM for being "treated" this way. No one even saw me or where I was coming from to point a finger anywhere close to my general direction. I am only the messenger.
Comments that make no grammatical sense, suggestions (like I am threatening blackmail - wtf??) that
completely miss the point. It's
painful to see. It's like watching two clueless parents trying to deal with an irate child who refuses to act the way THEY think children should act. When nothing works, they dose it with Ritalin and send it to its room, then cozy up on the couch to watch "Touch" and congratulate themselves on what loving and responsible parents they are (
"O but why o why is our baby so troubled?!").
And then "zenmincer" here wonders why s/he attracts foul-mouthed psycho trolls who bombard the site with 50 posts in a night! First rule of psycho-dynamics: WHATEVER YOU SUPPRESS GROWS STRONGER.
If I come on your forum like an angry brat and insult people - it's for two reasons: curiosity to find out how tetchy and touchy your egos are; and BECAUSE YOU ARE A BUNCH OF WHINING INEFFECTUAL ***** ****** ***** and if you don't make yourself VOMIT, you aren't making an honest assessment of the situation.
