Pseudoscience based on concepts from the 1970s that may well have been from the 1800s.

Confusion between biology and astrophysics for convenient apologetics. Hasty generalizations and false equivalences are used to entertain "cosmic biology" and a mystic universe. A blatant misunderstanding of astrophysics and electricity.

Obscurantism and god of the gaps. Confusion, mysticism.

Awesome comment by checkmate :)

The big bang was not the singularity, but we call singularity the moment before the big bang began, where current theoretical physics break. A break doesn't mean non-psysical, just outside of commonly understood physics. Even time is considered to only be meaningful when the big bang begins.

Humans love delusions that allow them to deny the fact that we die. Before the scientific method and continuing, there are endless philosophical currents. Many people are stuck into these seemingly forever, without much access to reality.

Today neurology and its success in identifying an increasing number of neurological-experience correlates, suggest that conventional physics, biology and neurology will still continue to help us understand the brain.

In relation to consciousness and psychology, a number of impressions may really be delusions up to some point. Our thought processes also allow us to entertain convenient fantasies and concepts that don't need to be limited by physics. It doesn't mean that what allows that is non-physical.

This post features god of the gaps fallacy: behind what the poster doesn't understand must absolutely be the spiritual and divine intention. There are claims of evidence of the divine, without being able to provide any whatsoever.

What? Next you'll inject oxygen in the spinal cord?

Or is this influenced by pranayama and susumna pseudoscientific metaphysics, with breathing exercises and "energy" visualisation? Where it suggests some kind of mystic christian gnostic syncretic cult...

Well, sexy women are sexy women, it's difficult for them to hide it. It's also normal for them to seek to attract. You may not be aware, but there's also a variety of porn centered around clothing, including non-revealing, it can be part of teasing. Then healthy men, like healthy women, have libido, it's normal. What may be abnormal and unhealthy and even leading to perversions are obsessions and puritanic related ignorance.

It's possible that there's a problem with you and that education and therapy could help. It likely affects your social and personal relationships. It also makes you intolerant of some social settings. Admitedly, humans are strange and so are their traditions. I personally find gospel dancing churches hilarious. Well, I'm not into that either. It doesn't make me demonize it.

Then I'm a musician who can appreciate a little of everything in terms of music. Including the ritual music of various religions. Some of them are very rhythmic and exploit some human sensitivities that permit to have strong sensations. They also use that for strong social cohesion and to promote mystic experiences. I don't believe in spirits so understand those experiences in a human and psychological way.

Why not stay home or go at another church, instead of imposing your own bigotry on everybody and limiting their experiences? It's like people who can't tolerate noise, perhaps because of a condition. They can't always get their way and quiet society around them.

As noted in chapter 15, the prince must appear to be virtuous in order to hide his actions, and he should be able to be otherwise when the time calls for it; that includes being able to lie, though however much he lies he should always keep the appearance of being truthful.

WTF? WTFed. The confusion is strong.

The only choice for me was to homeschool

Cult mentality, where everything is a good excuse to isolate, indoctrinate and control, where society is evil, etc. Especially false conspiracy theories based on ignorance and lies.

It also leads to the obvious question: what is your actual motivation to cut her from the world and make her captive? What do you think is likely to happen when in a few years she feels the need for some independence? What will your relationship be like in the future? Will she agree to still be manipulated by your selfishness as an adult?

not at all bigotry on my part

It's not because you're in denial that it's bigotry, by denying facts, that you're not a bigot.

But this also deserves a question, excluding from what? If it's the false conspiracy theory that you're obliged to sleep with someone you don't want to, it's stupid nonsense.

Declan Finn #transphobia

every mass shooting was led by someone diagnosed as “trans.”

Boderline #psycho as such a claim could only be made for persecution...

Then of course this frivolous scapegoating distracts from the fact of the major gun proliferation problem.

separate ourselves from a failing modern society

AKA usher the fall of society

“But when I say, ‘you’re gonna have to wait for that new Hitler to arise’, I’m not saying you’re going to have to wait for a new person to start a new Holocaust. I am saying you are going to wait for a charismatic leader who is going to advocate for your interests because that’s how a lot of people see Hitler”

Sure, nazi...
