&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; Hi, all,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; I just joined this Yahoo group.  As an aspiring philosophy writer&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; embracing such varied topics as anarchism, direct democracy,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; polyamory, atheism, reality theory, advanced levels of emotional&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; nurturance/maturity, idealism, Aspergian rights, meta-psychology,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; meta-philosophy, educational interactionism, perfection theory (and&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; how it ties in with reality theory), rationalistic subjectivism,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; selfhood/nonselfhood unified theory, philosophical progress optimism,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; empathetic narcissism and more.  For me, all of these (and more)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; topics tie in with each other and, though I can share about any one  of&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; them without focussing on the others, I wondered how this Yahoo  group&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; feels about bringing in tie-in issues when discussing profound,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; relevant issues.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; I love to receive constructive, thoughtful feedback and offer that&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; when it&amp;#039;s sincerely desired.  So many Yahoo groups supposedly&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; about  serious things wind up with lots of very flippant, jokey&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; messages.  I  want to engage people to help develop mutually&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; inspiring ideas and  find commonalities which could empower everyone&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; involved.  Human  potential is more real and more important than&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; human &amp;quot;actuality&amp;quot; as  far as I&amp;#039;m concerned.  Having an&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; ideal is very important, but  developing a practical strategy to get to&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; the ideal is also very&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; important.  I do both, and making the world a significantly better&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;  place requires people working on it together.  I&amp;#039;m looking for&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; more  people with the interest and passion for exchanging profound&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; I seek to understand people&amp;#039;s own outlooks, beliefs and feelings&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; about what is and is not going on in the world.  One could discuss&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;  current events day in and day out for centuries, but I prefer&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; focussing on these issues to put together a real, magnificent&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; alternative for all kinds of people.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; I hope there are no limitations on openness in this group.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt; Zon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is no intelligent life down here Zon.  This is a society bend on&lt;br /&gt;
heading toward World War in a fictitious battle of the gods between&lt;br /&gt;
children of the same God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They have taught the primitive peoples to end cycles of retaliation but&lt;br /&gt;
collectively they employ escalation policies.  Rather than controlling&lt;br /&gt;
their bad children with tough love, as families do, they just kill them&lt;br /&gt;
all as well as anyone else in the way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The social revolution of the sixties was subverted from within by the&lt;br /&gt;
politically correct bullies leaving an economy that is losing value and&lt;br /&gt;
little vision.  They have failed to attempt to built ubiquitous public&lt;br /&gt;
transportation and squander the planets oil resources stopped in traffic&lt;br /&gt;
for hours each day.  Then they war over oil rights.  They have not yet&lt;br /&gt;
realized that petroleum is too precious to burn.  Science itself has&lt;br /&gt;
become political truth.  The information they use for social planing is&lt;br /&gt;
fiction science.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They have crippled free enterprise with taxes on income and sales creating&lt;br /&gt;
an economy that is NOT free and is therefore subject to fluctuations and&lt;br /&gt;
downturns.  At the same time they fail to capitalize on our shared&lt;br /&gt;
resources and do not tax resource utilization in order to protect our&lt;br /&gt;
scarce resources.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They have forgotten the self sovereignty of the individual and the&lt;br /&gt;
strength maximal diversity provides by empowering individuals to be all&lt;br /&gt;
they can be.  The simple ideology &amp;quot;do your own thing&amp;quot;, live and let live,&lt;br /&gt;
celebration of diversity of the sixties has failed.  Instead it has become&lt;br /&gt;
a society that supports &amp;quot;us against them&amp;quot; bullying internally against&lt;br /&gt;
everyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Collaboration so that we all might all accomplish our dreams has become a&lt;br /&gt;
world generally lacking in great vision, even for itself.  Conscious&lt;br /&gt;
evolution is impossible without dreams.  People feel powerless to make a&lt;br /&gt;
difference and therefore don&amp;#039;t bother.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I support your aspirations here, but you may be on the wrong planet if you&lt;br /&gt;
expect intelligent discourse.  Things are much to complicated down here&lt;br /&gt;
for the simple truths to be relevant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome Zon, from a hippy who forgot to grow up,&lt;br /&gt;
