What is an Other-Self? Are 2D Entities Other-Selves?

[Monica]

could you polarize STO if all you ever did was interact with second density other-selves? Possibly, but it would take much, much longer.

That's very rare...the lady living alone in a house with 79 cats...the man living with gorillas...We can only speculate as to what sort of catalyst they set up for themselves.

But for the vast majority of us, we have plenty of interactions with humans. I wasn't suggesting interacting with 2D entities instead of 3D entities. I was asking whether, when presented with an opportunity to feel compassion for a 2D entity, should we respond the same as we would for a 3D entity?

In other words, would it be appropriate to help the dog who just got hit by a car and is writhing in pain on the side of the road, just as we would help the child who got hit by a car? Is there any difference in terms of our response to an opportunity to serve?
