Classic idea, give it a go and see how it works out, maybe giving the REAL trouble-makers a 3 warning minimum and then handing out a PERMANENT Expulsion could be useful also.

@Storm1752 ...all good until, ‘tell them to kick rocks.’ that is not constructive criticism and is actually a put down! Anytime we put each other down...we are dismissing the other person! Wouldn’t it be better to say up-front...I am at a loss here, and rang-out, discussing this, I need to come back to this/that another time? That preserves the dignity of both parties?!

I don't think he's fundamentally capable of telling the truth, he just can't do it. His biggest problem: to continuously always top himself he has to reach for bigger and bigger lies. His followers don't care, and you're right, a lot of them actually believe his horseshit.

@zeuser true...if it should ever happen...the first words from him would be, ‘I don’t know this person, I never told him to do ‘this or that thing!’

Find a plausible sickness you can have.

Freedompath replies on Apr 29, 2019:

Think about that...that is not really the truth! So next time and time after that...just pretend to be ill? We each have a right and obligation to live our truth, without having to justify it everytime someone asks something of us that we clearly are not interested in. That doesn’t mean that others should throw in the towel...but sometimes we are not that interested in everything that another person is doing ...and we may truely love them! We can still be happy for them, right where we are!

Yes this is true however his trumpets just do not care. NOT at all. They follow a lie, believe in a lie and lie about it.

Freedompath comments on Apr 29, 2019:

I think it could work...but it seems to me that the answer to ‘how are you feeling?’ needs more than a few words...unless people answer ‘just fine,’ which would end most conversations. I can’t see how people will open up and reveal their deeper nature, by asking them ‘how are you ...

@Henrygreen27 to most people it is a routine greeting...and they keep on going! That’s the point...keep having to think hard to a minimum.

@FrayedBear I know...but they ARE part of the fabric of life, wheather we like it or not. We can limit our exposure, as interacting with them, does take the wind out of our sails...but how will they ever be more pliable, if they are not exposed to rational thought process (I think that is what we, ‘others’ think that we are doing). 🤪

Much ado about nothing......

Freedompath replies on Apr 29, 2019:

@Robecology I agree...but coming from my experience, when someone says...’keep your comments to yourself,’ tells me, I don’t value anything that you could offer. You see, there is no where one person can go, when the other one makes that statement. It says...’don’t even speak...whatever you might say will be dead to me!’ It shows no value whatever for the person themselves. Because...who are we, but all the things that we say, mostly! None of us are...just one of our opinions, we have many opinions and OTHER things that make up all that we are. Our ‘value’ as a person, wants to be heard. If someone says...I can’t understand that point of view,’ then there is room for elaboration...and the person has no reason or need to defend his whole nature (or in his mind...all of his opinions at that moment)...which we already know at a deeper level is impossible! This would be like physically pushing a person into a corner...with no escape...this ‘keep your comments to yourself,’ is a kind of psychological ‘corner’. It just seems to me that we must show ‘value’ for the person first...then debate his opinions and assumptions. NOT slap him in the face, with our off-hand comment...then express dismay when that other person is not forth-coming and may even perceive our ‘put-down,’ comment as an assault.

You are correct. You can post anything and it turns into a lefty know it all bash fest. Spewing the same old redundant crap over, and over, and over.......by the ones that are proud they are "free thinkers". Just repeating what they are told. I profess to be a free thinker and don't watch T.V. at ...

Freedompath replies on Apr 29, 2019:

@Bobsuruncle I don’t have a tv, and so do not watch CNN, except occasional excerpts on you-tube. I am a member of that group and do not push my ‘free thinker’ position...but I do strive to get my facts straight. That is because I read several news agencies giving details on the same thing. And I see that you painted all of us with the same broad strokes. But, I am trying to figure out why you would want to be there, in the first place, since it is not your thing. There are several groups that I do not have the slightest interest in and I wouldn’t touch them with a ten foot pole...if something want fit me, I want go there.

Letting someone know they are truly loved before they go is one of the greatest gifts anyone can bestow. I am very glad you got to give her that gift. You will come to treasure it as much as she did. I am very sorry for your loss and you have my deepest condolences.

Freedompath replies on Apr 28, 2019:

Funny thing, it was all good times...and she was a devout Latter Day Saint! Once when I was exasperated over a big mistake on someone’s part, that caused me grief and in telling the story I accidentally said a cuss word and she cautioned me about using cuss words in front of her (it was either hell or damn), and I said to her, ‘then grandma (we all called her grandma) you shouldn’t use cuss words, because they want work for you.’ She laughed. The bomb shell came when I had to reveal that ‘I did not believe in a man made god!’ Then she tried to defend the God, that she believed in and I had to tell her...that they are all man made gods! I expected her to try and justify her position, but she just dropped it like maybe there was something else. We never discussed it again!

Freedompath replies on Apr 25, 2019:

@Tiramisu the GOP, may have won, just as you say...then in addition to that they rigged the districts and the courts for years to come...(back in my area in Ga. even if a democrat ran, he would never win, hell, sometimes you were moved out of one district to another, unknowingly) they have no intention of giving anyone else a seat at the table, no matter how well the Dems play ‘the game.’ It is a life or death struggle to them! I have not immersed myself deeply in any group, but I do pay deep close attention...starting at my local level! And I can assure you, the GOP Evangelicals, which is what most Republicans are...don’t want us and will never give up their power, unless, by some unforeseen probable tragedy! We are ‘not like them,’ and they want it that way! I know these people, the majority are from small towns and all they know is what their religion has INSTILLED in them! That is their only social life, except for their tv! They are not interested in learning other ways! And...their religion want work...without those ‘lost souls, out there!’ (Per most Sunday morning sermons!) And they are not going to let that go...they are ‘willing to die for their faith,’ which they have merged into politics! Personally I do not know any Democrats that fight that dirty! It will never be alright with me and the Dems that I know...the dirty way that the GOP... politics! And, do not forget the Dems (Clinton) won the popular vote! The GOP, as it stands today will never accept the other side...I have not seen that in my life time, and if I had another one this long...I wouldn’t see it! You are free to ‘see,’ what you can...

@Tiramisu ...I would prefer anyone that was just a ‘meddler,’ to an out an out criminal...with years of evidence to show his criminal attributes. There is no perfect person, therefore no perfect leader...but a diseased character...cannot be trusted! I wonder how we would stack up, if compared?

Freedompath comments on Apr 9, 2019:

I have worked on the same thing, off and on many times. It seems to take as long as it takes to clear the memories of their emotional hold. At least that has been my experience. It was reported that even the cells in our bodies holds memories.

Freedompath replies on Apr 25, 2019:

@HankSherman I have had a little experience with Scientology back in 70s. But, that is not where I got my info about ‘cells having memories.’ To my knowledge memories are never erased, maybe quieted down, as in the shock treatments that was sister received at 19, but her memories returned, maybe not as pronounced. The emotional impact of a memory can be lessened, when brought out and re-examined in a different time and state of mind. Some things are not even stored into our memory bank.
