Are there any honest people over the age of about 3?
Are there any honest people over the age of about 3? Or are they all over about this age playing loose with reality due to dangerously compromising their very being?
My hope is that honesty still exists out there in post-3 year-olds or will come back to those who have apparently prostrated themselves before a world of lies and lying |

Honesty, the pure sort, is not a good choice for this world - do you really want to tell a mother her son she was so proud of in his military uniform ran at the first sign of shooting, was caught by the Taliban and brutally tortured and hung to die on a tree for three days as a warning to other US soldiers, then he died being eaten alive by scavengers. How honest do you really think we should be imagine?

well, symptom777
that's a weird puzzle: 'cause it's almost like you gave an honest answer (taking your post as a whole)- are you the last honest man on Earth? What if lying is an illusion- that truth speaks regardless (you know: in Heaven "everything is made known")... food for thought...? |

Quoting Ben... "Honesty, the pure sort, is not a good choice for this world"
No way. It's the ONLY choice: what exists is all that exists- there's nothing else other than what exists; if you choose "fairyland" you get - well- if you pretend there is no train rushing toward you while standing on a railway track- you get run over -so it is with un-truth- not advisable but how did humans ever become vulnerable (i.e. apparently able to be threatened by others into fudging reality? It should be impossible surely) Quote; " - do you really want to tell a mother her son she was so proud of in his military uniform ran at the first sign of shooting, was caught by the Taliban and brutally tortured and hung to die on a tree for three days as a warning to other US soldiers, then he died being eaten alive by scavengers." You do not have to say this to his mother, unless pressed? No need to lie here. Truth ALWAYS is better: I discovered the secret to everything: reality (its all there is- by definition!) "Seek and you shall find". No earthly power has any hold over what is true. Truth delivers more than you can imagine- I found this. Truth is not subservience to some earthly dictatorship- truth is often highly subversive to those who would dictate! Dictatorships rely on fudging; on obfuscating. Truth is what allows you to make Neo in the Matrix look like an amateur... Quote: "How honest do you really think we should be imagine?" Answer: infinitely. Reward: eternal life. try it! |

Here's a testable theory about Roswell:
atmospheric nuclear testing in the Nevada desert left a "micro shimmer" vibration in the atmosphere. "Flying saucers" such as the well documented group of silvery saucers seen from an airliner are like optical images but are mechanical vibrational patterns in the atmosphere caused by the introduction in to that body of air of the wake-turbulence caused by the airliner. So the "whitewash" by the Saucer Commission was half right: the apparent rapid movement of the saucers and multiplicity of them were formed in a manner like an optical effect; but were according to a theory I thought of actual interference effects between a residual vibration in the air and the turbulence caused by the aircraft. So "vibrational images" of the aircraft were formed near Mt. Rainier (this mountain's profile effect on the body of air also perhaps playing a role) at a distance from the aircraft. This theory says that these "flying saucers" are high energy standing waves. This would explain why an air force jet that intercepted a saucer on another occasion was downed- the high energy standing wave would have earthed (like lightning) to the nearby jet. The official claims re: Roswell were that Rhesus monkeys in a metal cage that had been sent up under a helium balloon (for altitude effects testing on mammals pre-space program) explained so called "alien" bodies? My theory suggests that what happened is: the balloon cage encountered one of these high-energy standing waves which "earthed" to the cage containing the monkeys; causing the metal of the case to become "twitchy" (like it was alive)(as a witness of debris on the ground claimed) and the monkeys' features became stretched (as if they had been in a centrifuge) causing the "alien" apearance. Virtually every reliable witness account of saucers in the 1947 - 1952 or so period may be explainable in this way? Just a theory, but able to be tested (the sea has the shimmer pattern just before it becomes completely smooth when it is calming. An enclosed body of shimmer-sea plus an introduced source of turbulence could be organised so as to see if vibrational standing waves are projected by interference between the background shimmer vibration and the introduced moving turbulence?) |

I came across a very interesting book:
"the Truth About Flying Saucers" by Aime' Michel First published in Great Britain 1957 Robert Hale Limited London |

Actually, I don't really associate lieing with (dis)honesty.
I don't think, for example, that telling someone that there new born baby is beautiful when it's (like all babies) fuggin ugly, is dishonest. |

Thank you imagine; i'm interesting it;i'll find more to read further!

Notes from the book that may be worth googling:
June 24th, 1947 (Not seen from an airliner- mistake in previous post) saucers seen from a private aeroplane; "nine gleaming discs" seen "travelling at a teriffic speed" by Mr. Arnold, near Mt. Rainier. The story "caused quite a sensation" and was reported around the world... other reports from pilots during the war reports occured of"foo fighters" (balls of light that "played tag" with pilots just off their wingtips....) lots of other accounts including Captain James Mantell's (U.S. AIr Force pilot) pursuit of a "gigantic" saucer; "flying cigars"; Professor Clyde Tombaugh's sighting (discoverer of Pluto); theodelite tracking of "cicular objects" at Holloman Air Base Apri 6th, 1948; Lieutenant George F. Gorman case, the "Saucer Commission"; European sightings, Africa; Villacoublay; the Lietenant Plantier theory; "the Marignanne cigar'; Beirut, Lagny; "the Le Bourget saucer"; "whip-lash trails"; "the progression in jerks".... |

One of the coolest things in the book is the Lieutenant Plantier theory; and the idea that if a flying object pulled the air along with it at progessively lower speeds proportional to distance from the craft, then it would not have a heating problem re: the air as the air closest to the craft would be travelling almost as fast as the craft

Beauty is more than in looks
if one knew one was fibbing then that's the answer, surely? What is "tact"? Can it be honest? What about the pressure people are put under to dodge reality? My brother has a saying "you're telling the story"; or how about "it is you who say it" as a way to not have to pretend to agree with someone? Or just "my thoughts are my own" (Frodo?)(um "Our business is our own" is what they said when arriving at the village of Bree in "The Lord Of The Rings: The fellowship of the Ring"). Or why not just say what you think; but do not offend people unnecessarily? (But do not compromise on reality.)(Why shouldn't I say to Hitler: "Excuse me, but I don't think what you are doing is a good idea" ? ) Why are people so afraid of the truth? I hope for a world where it is safe to be truthful. Is "tactful" necessarily dishonest? |

How long have you known about this truth imagine? The first three years holds the promise of a new world - the next seven years requires careful consideration as to why this truth from you is being ignored - the answer is it doesn't matter what the truth is when the vast majority of people can't afford the reality you and I promote. It will take many, many generations to reverse the lie imagine, do what you can but be careful, people won't thank you for bringing them the light when it means being outside the social circles they grew up in and believed - you'll shatter their world and it will smash at their feet and they will blame you for it and so will their family. Be careful with the truth for it is a very powerful thing. They can't handle the truth yet. Empathy and compassion.
