there, I posted it, now tell me the demons name.

I have a story for you, a brave little mouse came into the garden, ran right up to me, an hour ago. I gave it some bird seed and a apple core. The cats are outside now

Everything is possible just not controllable or masterable . Most times when it happens its either in a moment of stress or a point of sleep. I've had my wife tell me about dreams of things I had planned and not told her about I've had things come true years after I've warrened of what was to happen It's not blatant some times it can be something as small as a few words spoken in the past that come and change your life in seconds many years later but then it clicks in your mind that you warrened yourself years before.

Yes, dreams of things to come.

I have family members that can see the near future.

It's quite surprising.

Mine were not even on topic,  it was highly unusual.  I’ve had the ability since I was a child.  I do enjoy working with the public because I see so much.   It’s quite the learning experience. 

I have had some serious danger signals coming from some people that I preferred to not even make eye contact with, have you ever had that?

Yeah, I get that feeling with people sometimes.  I can sense that kind of stuff.  I always had that sense, but when I was young tried to suppress the feeling because otherwise I would not have got along with some of the friends of my friends.   They used to call that the sixth sense when I was young.  

I did hang out with some liberals when I was a liberal back in the seventies, I went to protests half a dozen times, but found that the people inciting the protests were mostly not good people.  So I just stuck with the tree hugger protests, they were not pulling any angles usually, they just wanted to protect nature.  Not too many of them were doing it to gain wealth or just to promote hate.  But at one protest there was a guy who sabataged the equipment of the loggers after we left, and I talked to him in the bar afterwards and he offered me a job causing conflict, you see he left the caps off the equipment, dumped sugar down the tank, and did stuff like cutting hydraulic lines...little stuff.  What job was he offering me...he worked for big business, he was hired by the logging association to do that to get public sentiment against the tree huggers.  I told him I had a job and was not interested in traveling around the country.  In that case, his employer was the logging association, but he worked for many organizations and businesses sabatoging sentiment against those kinds of businesses.  I talked to a local cop I knew well about it a week later, and he said they knew about it already, their police force was notified about it beforehand I guess.  I think the guy was heading down to Georgia after that, the company paid travel...but on a bus...and paid for meals and lodging.  In the early seventies there were not many people flying around.  And license plates could be used as evidence if linked to a crime.  I do not know if local police were notified everywhere, but they were in my home area.  The few hoses that needed replacing, and draining the fuel tank didn't cost much to do...he said he did pour sugar down the tank, no faking that, but nobody started the logging truck.  Insurance did cover the damage too.

I know how liberals think because I was a liberal for many years, but I got out of being a liberal when I saw it turning more into anarchy and overshooting slow and steady progression to a better society and started seeing lying and deceit take hold in the liberal movement.  I am almost ashamed to say I was once a liberal.  I hate the phrase you are either with us or against us....I will not be intimidated into doing things that are bad for society.  Lying and twisting things out of proportion is not what I feel is right, and just because I believe one cause is right, I will not back a cause that is not what I think is proper.

I liked being in the middle for years, but as the anarchy and deceit by the left got much worse I have gone to the right conservatives more now.  I cannot believe what happened and how the librals got so brainwashed into believing in things that were not right.  I am now almost seventy, and have seen and done a lot, and am wondering if I should have even aligned with the liberals and progressives in the past now because it is destroying our society.  I will never go far right, and also I will not support anything conservative that I think is not right.

Wasn't Jan. 6th anarchy in your mind?

[rickymouse]

Wasn't Jan. 6th anarchy in your mind?

Yeah, there were people there who were trying to fire up the crowd on january sixth.  There was a guy that was filming for the media that was trying to persuade others to juice up things too.  Yes, it was anarchy.  There was hind mindset in that too, but the vast majority of the protesters were peaceful...some acted a little nuts all dressed up.  And some far right were mixed in too, and some did go into places they were not supposed to go to, but in early shared videos I saw a lot of people just going around taking pictures in that public building after the few guards just got fed up  fighting off some of the more radical protesters and let them in.  It is a public place, and once the guards let some in others went in too.

Many of those arrested were not doing anything bad, and they even left when they were told to go  but there are some that  went too far and went into areas not public in nature, curiousity kills the cat.

Some of those protesters should have got charged, but they were going after everyone there, which is not right.  Even a good person can be enticed to join into activities that they would never do, and if their actions are really bad, they still need to be charged.  Many of the people charged did not realize just being there would get them tossed in jail. 

I tried to look at both sides and I tried to evaluate who the troublemakers were in those videos.  The Left was saying everyone there was bad, as they try to do with anyone who does not follow their lead many times.  The left has had many more violent protests than that, yet they used their right to peaceful protests to stay out of trouble.  The Hive mindset is a real term for protests that get out of control, to justify the lefts actions only I guess.

Like I said, I was a liberal, I still have liberal friends, and I know to avoid political talking with them.  I also know lots of conservatives, they are usually peaceful except for the far right.  Most of the people I know are in the middle now, maybe leaning a little more left or right on certain issues, but still in the middle.

No business should align with the left or right, and especially the left, because they seem to throw people under the bus a lot if they say anything negative about any leftist beliefs.  The middle usually stays away from any causing trouble, and like me, most tend to avoid politics in conversations.  You cannot do that with the far left or right it seems.  I had a business and I avoided aligning with either the left or right, my customers were my customers, nothing needs to be politics in building homes and home maintence, avoiding the subject is not hard most times when you have a brain and can steer the conversation away from politics.  But now more and more people are convinced you have to take sides, so I try to stay away from people more these days.  Otherwise I would not be on social media, I would be out at coffee, visiting businesses and friends like I used to do before all this division crap happened.  I have learned that staying away from people who are polarized is not good and because I hate lying, even telling little white lies to appease people, it is easier to try to moderate my socializing.  My daughters have been told by me that if I see they are going in the wrong direction I will try to warn them....because I love them, not because I am mad at them..  I will not back their delusional thinking, and I try to get them to look at both sides of things..  My older daughter tends to think I should stand behind her more than my younger daughter, because my younger daughter has seen that my insight is usually mostly right...especially with personal finance. 

If a friend of mine is going in the wrong direction, I usually try to persuade them to think about the direction they are going in.  I was real good at that before, I talked a lot of people into calming down and evaluating everything better.  But now that I am older....will be seventy this month, I am losing more patients to do that, have been losing patients for about five years or more now.  I talke a lot of my customers into getting more conservative but equal quality work done, to keep their bill down when I did work for them.  People who are just working class cannot usually afford fancy stuff.  And what was the result, never had to advertise to get work, and people were happy their loan payments were less, it gave them extra spending money to buy things they needed and wanted.  You can have more BBQs in a year with friends if you didn't spend ten grand and the extra interest on that money to put something extravagent on your home.  Very few people regretted buying say Anderson windows than some fancy special order windows that cost way more.  My daughter was intent on getting her two windows in swing in special European casements, the price was four times the cost of Anderson medium quality swing out windows, that was last year.  Four grand VS sixteen grand for the two windows, I helped her and her husband put them in, so that was window cost, no labor costs.  No loan needed for that, vs a loan for the european style windows.

Now I got way off track.  I should edit like I have done before.  Others have the right to believe the way they believe, all you need to do is present things to them so they can see they may be going astray, but more often now than years back, the people are brainwashed into believing they know more than anyone who does not agree with their beliefs..

That is what my examples are about, to try to portray there are ways to open others eyes to see both sides of things.

 It does not matter if you like Reincarnation or not, the fact that people get reborn with memories of a past life are just a fact of life. It might be nothing to do with Karma. Karma makes good sense because if you try to avoid shit you get a chance of a more harmonious existence, looking for trouble brings trouble.

What matters is proof, can you provide that?

Nope.

Provide me with proof that's not an anecdote, people "get reborn with memories of a past life"?

And its not about like or dislike, logically, reincarnation does not make sense.

How can a person be the "same" across different lives if there is no continuity of memory, body, or personality?

If you dont remember past lives, in what sense are "you" the same person?

Where is the testable or observable evidence for reincarnation?

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Reincarnation lacks consistent, reproducible data.

If souls are reincarnated, where do the new souls come from as the population increases?

Is it fair to punish or reward someone for actions in a past life they don't remember?

What would be the point?

It's not punishment if you don't know what you did, never mind impossible to make up and atone for actions you don't know you committed. 

And if every soul is reincarnated endlessly, when and how did the process begin?

[annonentity]

The example I gave was quoted from a case looked into from a reputable universities dept of Para psychology. 
 Trauma from past lives , usually the death experience seem to be the reason for a lot of health conditions in the present life. Which if treated seem to clear up. In many but not all cases. So cultures who have studied it. Have a lot more insight into the whys and wherefores. Reincarnation is just accepted in most of the world.. we might be a bit to materialistic to look seriously at it.
