Mr. K makes a good point by shifting the responsibility to the military. Who's to say what has been developed in the last 10 years? The war gods have not been idle. Saw a recent video where one technician is controlling a flock of quad drones while they maneuver like a flock of birds. Wouldn't it be cool to have a glimpse of life a hundred years from now? -rrb

Awesome perspective, thank you Sir!

My view is Mike is completely free to have been a seeker who just decided. However, that's not what Mike's role as an activist for promoting all things Wierwille, PFLAP, and the associated written collateral materials... ARGUING (incredibly poorly) for that position. Last night, I tried to pin him down and get him to justify his position. He replied with what I read as extreme frustration, expressed with emotionally immature and accusatory language. I realized at that time the only way for me to reasonably respond to him when he does that is with compassion. I maintain that his advocacy for all things twi is worthy of reasonable and aggressive pushback. When he seems to go off the rails, that signals to me he needs to be responded to with compassion.

People used to tell me that the birth of my son would change my life. However they described it, however they explained it, that was not it. Their words were insufficient. You are a mother. You might know what I'm talking about. It is something that cannot be explained or contained conceptually. It is indescribable, is it not? We are so eager to have someone else provide answers. We want someone else to see it for us. We want someone else to tell us what to do. No one can see it for you. Trust. But don't trust me.

Hi, If you can see truth, then have you found it? And what do you do with truth once you see it if you can't hold onto it? Does the truth you see lead you anywhere - are you able to follow it and apply it to your life? Is truth personal to how one sees/perceives it and therefore cannot be said to be THE truth?

Truth cannot be found. It is not to be attained. Truth is nothing to be possessed. But all the priests, gurus and teachers will happily take your money, honor and devotion in exchange for a comfortable package of knowledge you can hold in your brain or in their books. Then you say, "I've got it! I found it!" Truth cannot be held. The one claiming to HAVE the Truth is surely the one who does not. Truth is to be seen. It can be seen by anyone with eyes to see.
