A call to all NF's and NT's (Myers Briggs)
by becca1 inok, some of you may be sick of these personality type issues but here goes.. i've noticed that whenever these topics come up, nf's and nt's come out of the woodwork.
in case you didn't know, these are the minority of the geneal population.
in a random setting you will have only 2 to 5% of n's (infp, infj,enfp,enfj,intp,intj,entp,entj).

INTJ/P
It does seem both a blessing and a curse to need to put some semblance of order upon this world.
Or mine at least,......:-)

What rebellious things did you secretly do while still in?
by Paisley inonacruse and mouthy said something very interesting in becca's thread and it got me thinking..... did you intentionally do certain things, either to assert yourself, even though privately/secretly, or just because you strongly felt it was the right thing to do?
things that were not in keeping with the organization's teachings?
things that if known, could get you in hot water in the congregation?.

Long time ago now but what the hell,...
Listened to "satanic" music, went to R movies, had "bad" associations, drank, smoked (everything), dropped (stuff), partied constantly, chased girls, all the things a teenager does to rebel.
'course, i was on my way out at the time; one of the lives had to go,......lol
ahhh, good times,....:-)

A quick question:
by Vinny ini disassociated one year ago.
no meetings, no memorial no nothing since then.
there was one jw young man that talked to me continuously and who also lived right next door, 25 yrs old, a best friend of my step-son, (we all fished on my boat at least a half dozen times together).

Discussions in Schopenhauer: On Thinking for Oneself
by onacruse in"reading and learning are things that anyone can do of his own free will; but not so thinking.
thinking must be kindled...it must be sustained by some interest in the matter at hand.
this interest may be of a purely objective kind, or merely subjective...".

Subjective
Everything is relative to the observer.
Perhaps to move from subjective to objective is growth.
Perhaps the only "pure" observer is god/chaos.
Just an objectivist opinion,....

'What the (bleep) do we know?'
by Twitch inhttp://www.whatthebleep.com/whatthebleep/.
not your average movie in that car chases do not seem to exist, such as to be perceived anyways :-) though i wouldn't agree with some of the more "new age" viewpoints, it's a nice piece of mind candy, that quantum mechanics/metaphysics thing.
and a few interesting opinions on the nature of god,...... a day in the life,...... .

Thanks Kudra. Great review actually. I have much the same opinions on the "experiments" and historical events\myths. My radar caught a few blips such as the tie-ins between physics, biology and consciousness but especially with how the various sources seemed to be edited together to support the rather mystical, pseudoscience viewpoint of the movie which by the way seems to have a nice marketing and distribution system in place.
What appealed to me about it though were the existential undercurrents, the uncertainty principle and naturally the speculation on the nature of god from the non-believer, per se.
Hesitant in joining the "bleep" community,
