Sugar Makes You Dumb

[Tenet Nosce]

You guys are constantly talking about critical thinking, science, reason.

Interesting. In another food-related thread I was talking about learning to trust one's own inner wisdom and intuition as regards food choices. You took objection to that as well.

Why aren't you atheists? Doesn't critical thinking and science lead to atheism? Where is your faith? The Law of One says that the importance of faith cannot be underestimated.

Right, so go ahead and add the fake "faith" to the fake "love" and the fake "compassion" to the list. Fake "faith" being the notion that it is good to blindly trust in an external authority. Faith, as described in the Law of One, is trusting that All is Well when it comes to the big picture. This is actually a very logical conclusion, in my opinion.

What about resonance? You guys talk like evolution from 3d to 4d is based on the person learning reason and science and subordinating their lives to the dictates of scientific elites. Isn't this incompatible with the Ra material? Doesn't Ra suggest that people follow what resonates? Ra says this is not the density of knowing, so doesn't that mean science and reason are useless?

I don't see any reason to, nor do I resonate with, the notion to whittle everything down to an EITHER/OR situation and then duke it out, whomever takes the most extreme view "wins".

Scientific "elites" which use only logic and reason, to the exclusion of emotion and intuition are just as stunted in their consciousness as those who do it the other way around. I get just as irritated with both extremes.

The aversion of some "scientific elites" to anything which cannot be catalogued and quantified limits their ability to grow as human beings. The aversion of some "New Agey types" to anything which can be catalogued and quantified also limits their ability to grow as human beings.

One thing they do have in common is that both of these "types" are probably eating too much sugar. The rational-type because "it's all just calories and the second law of thermodynamics". And the intuitive-type because "I feel so good when I eat sugar, that it must be good for me!"

I don't see how Diana, Tenet, etc reconcile your views in this thread with the Law of One. Especially Tenet--you talk like a standard atheist. Do you believe in The Creator? Do you believe in God? What place does God have in the classroom? What place does God have in your suggestion that the rational scientists rule over society and control the irrational sheep?

Luckily for me, I am not relying on you to reconcile this on my behalf.

If I had my druthers, the world would be governed by a body comprised of intuitive scientists and rational mystics.

But to speak more directly to your concern, which I think is totally valid, about the people being controlled and manipulated by the intelligentsia of the world, I would submit that this occurs because the average person is so easily hoodwinked by logical fallacies. It's not the logic part that is the problem, it is the fallacy part.

Unfortunately, many people who have been previously hoodwinked by another person's fallacious thinking tend to reject logic altogether, rather than develop their own reasoning skills to exceed those of the manipulators.
