I mentioned the psychosomatic problem recently.
And a bunch of so-called scientifics have spent the time and space since then shovelling **** on it and, moreover, **** of a constant consistency and viscosity as if this problem is of no importance and thus worthy of burial.
And what is it of such overwhelming importance that is on their shovels? It is the "will she-won't she?" of the members of a school board, itself split, in some small corner of a state, famous for its hanging Chads and the mass illusions of Orlando, where average incomes are $4,000 below average US levels.
That is what this thread's so-called scientific members have brought into service to try to bury any mention of the psychosomatic problem. There are but two explanations of that.
1- Anti-IDers are scared witless of the subject.
2- Anti-IDers are incapable of ordering priorities and belittle anything they don't know about on the basis that what they don't know isn't worth knowing. And they don't even know that-
Quote:It's a complete cop out to talk about ideas in that way and skip out the ideas.
And aspects of the psychosomatic problem are what this topic is all about and the only scientific approach possible. Even accident proneness is linked to psychological states.
Psychosomatic affects, I'll not call them effects in this context, are the first priority in our sad and sorry lives where physical want has been eliminated. In all our lives. What happens in St Petersburg school board meetings is so trivial by the side of that that if there was a Richter scale the latter would not raise the needle from its position at rest. Even in St Petersburg itself the matter will hardly create a stir except among those who want it to for their own reasons all of which are directly linked to psychosomatic considerations of one sort or another.
So the shrinking of anti-IDers from my introducing the subject tells me, as a certainty, that there are no scientists on that side of the argument. And their strategy of burying the subject, the only one of any importance, tells me, as a certainty, that they are totalitarians and incurable ones at that.
They obviously have never heard of the physiology of laughter or other excitable cells and when they have heard a sport's commentator mention adrenaline pumping, as they must have, they do not wonder, as any scientific person would, what such things mean. Riding the Grand National winner and scoring the winning goal for England have both been reported on TV by the only observers we have to be "better than sex". Sex being an activity anti-IDers can only consider as copulation.
The affects of psychosomatic states, and religious ceremonies and contemplation cause them to be altered, have a direct influence on health and happiness. Even winning the Superbowl causes a rosy glow in a large district of highly intelligent sophisticates none of whom took part in the kicking and biting.
There is a vast range of drugs used to try to get at the positive affects artificially and doses can be mild, as with caffeine or ceremonies of self importance such as school board members no doubt experience, or strong as with mainlining or winning a primary.
The "feelgood factor" and its connection to general tone and health is a most important consideration.
Some people have difficulties with it. They can't watch a 5-day Test Match and feel good about it. They think they are wasting their lives. In the end they can't actually watch anything as they are all over everything they see with their opinions and other simplistic crap and they wind up listening to themselves spouting and seeing nothing.
Meanwhile, in the Mission Halls and Cathedrals others are having a high old time singing and swaying and praying because the Holy Father knows that the best way, the cheapest and least harmful, to give them a shot of "feelgood" in the main arteries is His way, tried and tested over centuries and honed to perfection and when the IDjits emerge into the sunshine in their best bibs and tuckers, with the virgins looking like flowers in a spring meadow, they cut deals and carve up the real estate and the anti-IDer sits glumly in his computer room searching out some drivel about some far away school board's machinations, the important details of which are covered in heavy snow, which has voted 4-3 for what he thinks to be right and he is fulfilled. If they vote the other way he ignores them and looks for one of the other 15,000 which reassures him.
