Frankly- I don't observe any such exacerbation of "negative yellow" in this thread. What I observe is a group of people who simply want to express themselves and speak their minds openly.
I observe that each, in their own way, has decided to somewhat dispense with the "niceties" and the "pleasantries" and get right down to the heart of the matter. Even those who would appear to be in favor of "niceties and pleasantries".
I don't observe this at all to be a "mistake" but exactly what is intended to occur. This is the time of the awakening. This is the time for all humanity to face the uncomfortable truth of what they have created, and that includes us.
The Plain Jane truth is that, for thousands of years, humanity has operated under some or another form of restrictive code of social conduct that requires all manner of wasted energy and absurdity in order to placate the ego.
It hasn't worked. Why is this so difficult to see?
The bottom line is that everybody in this forum should be given the benefit of the doubt that they ARE speaking from the heart. I am very sorry to be the bearer of "bad tidings" but those who believe that Spirit is always gentle are lying to themselves.
I would recommend (re)reading The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and review how C.S. Lewis depicts Aslan returning to Narnia.
Adonai. <--- This would appear to be more than sufficient of a nicety for the purposes of communication between different cultures within our local galaxy.
