NLPRN,
Thank you for the clarification of your joke. You really do know what you are talking about.

Discussion of the nature of Ultimate Reality and the path to Enlightenment

You sound like every woman I have ever met.This is exchange is like communicating with an extraterrestrial. I pick up a message broadcast through the vast universe known as Internet from an entity which calls itself BJMcGilly. I decipher it as best as I can, formulate a response in my own language, and beam it back out into the cyberspace. What comes back is nearly unintelligable to me. I sense some form of intelligent life at the other end, strangely familiar, yet terribly alien. I am thrilled and at the same time aghast, despondant, left with a feeling we will never be able to really share our thoughts.
You sound like every woman I have ever met.Here on Earth, I think the average person is more afraid of not having money, a partner, and health (freedom from pain and death), than all the space/time stuff you speak of. On a subconcious level he/she may fear the dark, and nameless boogiemen, but I don't think that can be equated with space, time, wisdom, and greys.
With your prior addition of RFID chips to the list, sounds like simple paranoia to me. Only those who value life fear death, those who value wisdom value neither.millipodium wrote:But fear of technology that can kill you is natural and normal, and wise.

The above post was an acknowledged "reach," written from the perspective of the average person's fears. Although, I think Diebert was closer when speaking on a fear of technology, which implies a fear of intellect.
On the other hand, a sage would appear quite alien to the average egoist.
Though you may consider this fear paranoid, that doesn't mean it's a fear of intellect. It's a fear of a concrete use of something created by the intellect. It's a fear of the basic evil iin men, if you want to get down to it.BJMcGilly wrote:With your prior addition of RFID chips to the list, sounds like simple paranoia to me.

GodsDaughter says: I shall return with my insight on this post after pause interuption ends!BJMcGilly wrote:This is reaching, but could encounters with aliens, assuming none exist nor have visited earth, be a projection of our own fear of wisdom and the wise?
GodsDaughter says: You might be on to something BJMcGilly, perhaps, you should assume aliens do exist. But, the very essence of our fear, is the very essence that brings us to face this fear of wisdom and the wise, by accepting it. And by accepting it, you're facing the fact that wisdom exists, and it is your own wisdom within you which makes you realize this fear.
GodsDaughter says: I believe Aliens are of God, they created us through knowing.
Commonly involved in these encounters, we meet the greys. Considered in light of physiognomy:
GodsDaughter says: I shall read up on physiognomy, Thank you!
They are small and fragile in appearance, connoting but a whisp of ego. If any ego at all, they seem to work in concert, as if their bodies existed solely for their cranium, and their collective cranium for the Mind.
They have huge cranuims in comparison to their tiny bodys, indicating an hyperactive intelligence, often attributed with telepathic capabilities- an act of metaphysical intelligence.
They have huge black eyes, seemingly devoid of emotion, perhaps they are capable of seeing spectrums beyond our narrow band. Perhaps such eyes can track the winding paths of birds.
They analyze without remorse- probing the body of those they encounter. Perhaps these intrusive acts mirror the cold analytical approach of the dispassionate sage, so instinctively feared by the unconscious.
Most importantly, they paralyze the egoist. The egoist further paralyzes himself with fear.
My main assumption is that people have a primordial fear of the wisdom of space, the wisdom of timelessness. Such far off visitors capable of traversing space, of negating the barrier of space necessarily negate time, as space is time.
From the stars to earth, from the temporal to the infinite, is there any thought more feared and more awe-inspiring than this? Is the sage's wisdom any different?

GodsDaughter says: Their greenish grey bodies look like smooth skin which appear like someone wearing a smooth diving suit. The 3 ft. alien appeared to be staring out the window, it knew I was looking at it because it's head made a quick turn to the left staring straight at me, that's when I realized it saw me. I lowered my head and pulled the blanket over my head, and I knew through mental telepathy that this thing was coming right at me, it parked itself to my right side of my bed. Before hand when this thing was staring out the window and while I was under the blanket, I realized at that moment that if this is not true than how do I know what blanket is over my head....this is a true story. It probed my covered face with what I assume to be it's long bony fingers, it made motions on my face like it was extracting something or putting data into my brain. Then it stopped and I knew it was gone, I noticed the electric clock was off by 2 hours, if the lightning storm that occurred during this alien visit interferred with the clock, it would have been flashing, but it wasn't. Two hours cannot be explained. It was like a time warp happened and the 2 hours cannot be explained.BJMcGilly wrote:This is reaching, but could encounters with aliens, assuming none exist nor have visited earth, be a projection of our own fear of wisdom and the wise?
