Then Spirit Science being a cult and all sold me the "You're feeling down and depressed because you're THE CHOSEN ONE! And are special and spiritually enlightened!" Unfortunately for me I didn't snap out of it until years later and it's left me very fucked up. I ended up going years without therapy and care from mental health professionals because I was so desperate to try their "self-cures" via good vibes I guess? Doesn't help that their main cure all is "It's your fault lmao, just think happy thoughts" when I was being emotionally abused. Very glad I snapped out of it eventually. It caused me so much stress.

[@goodpol5022]

@@Daniel-pu6yk I was raised in a blue state by libertarian parents. My neighbors are Catholic and my mom has casual conversation with the mother about everything spiritual… and they agree all the time somehow. I’ve also been best friends with their daughter for longer than I could remember. So I come from a pretty open environment. I did go to a religious school on Saturdays which I found annoying. Their teachings were also very weird, they taught some very “assimulated” form of Hinduism that tried to mash several religions together (Christianity, Islam, Hinduism) and said “no matter the religion, we all worship the same God.” This led to some incredibly dumb contradictions in teachings. I don’t remember the specifics but basically we celebrated Christmas and everything and something that still gets me to this day is them saying “The pilgrims came to America because the king wouldn’t let them worship at the temple they wanted to.” I was 6 and I still find that funny to this day. I started having doubts when I was 7. I just couldn’t find meaning in my praying and whenever I thought of God I thought of some Zeus like figure. I wasn’t’t necessarily uneducated about my religion. I know quite a lot about the systems that make it work. It just wasn’t forced down my throat enough by my right libertarian parents for me to think of it uncritically. And once I started thinking about it critically, it all started to fall apart. I called myself an atheist by ten and dropped out of the religious school by 11. I didn’t want to tell my parents so I told them “I’m not an atheist! I just believe in a god that has literally none of the characteristics of God except omnipresence!” Them with their hyper-malleable view of religion fell for this. It wasn’t until I was 13 that I blurted out that I was an atheist to my mom in an argument about veganism. Her response was a “really?” and not much else. She tried to get an answer out of me later and tried to reconvert me but failed miserably. She is not the best debater and has low stamina for conversations with me. Anyway my atheism had pretty much zero effect with how I interact with other Hindus and other people in general. TL;DR: I just thought it was dumb.

I dated this guy from my tech college for like, three weeks when I was 18-19, which devolved into a stalking/harassment situation for about half a year after I broke things off with him (super clingy, already calling himself my boyfriend, spoke in a way that revealed his very transactional view of relationships). While I was dealing with this, one of our mutual acquaintances, an older lady (~late 50’s) who was also a student at the college confided in me that she’d always sensed a bad energy hanging around him, she mentioned giving him a crystal pendant and doing rituals for his sake to try and give him peace, I guess? Idk, she wasn’t very coherent on a good day. But of course she never once warned me about her suspicions about his character and instead she actively urged us to pair up.

Interestingly, I was a part of the community at one time and have communicated directly with Jordan. At the time I was a moderator for his forums and he was actually very authoritarian and tended to have very cult like tendencies (speaking in grandiose terms, lacking specifics, wanting things in his way and marketing himself as right without proper reasoning). At the time he had a relationship/friendship with an older guy who facilitated his brain-rot further (think his name was Ray). The community of moderators (myself included), challenged him on his views frequently. Eventually, the majority of people started to either leave or split to a movement called the "Bayesian Conspiracy" which I was affiliated with. We worked together to try and be against the cult-like movement within spirit science by spreading reliable science and reasoning (though sometimes I did a fair amount of shit-posting and trolling since I was much younger then). I cared about the people there quite a bit, but not so much about Jordan or Ray. Eventually the original forums fell apart and our whole team disbanded since we couldn't be controlled by him and Ray. No idea what happened after that, but it was sad for me to see a person who was a genuine truth-seeker when he first started devolve into a cult-leader.

56:00 In fairness, the body DOES do all the healing itself. Well, when it comes to bodily trauma, at least. You don't exactly mend the bone, for instance, you merely set it and keep it in its place while the body knits the bones back together. Stitches keeps the wound sealed tight and not leaking while skin and muscle regrows. At least that is what I assumed he meant... But frankly, with these people, you never know.

@@unfollowtheinstructions6360 aye. I've come across so many people using astrology to inform their decisions. Occasionally, someone misunderstands something & proceeds to believe it for decades of their existence; maybe even model an entire lifestyle around their sign. It's one thing to get your element wrong, yet the resurgence of Sidereal means some people don't even have the calendar dates right. Telling a lifelong Aquarius that they're really Capricorn can provoke some severe introspection.

[@VariantNode]

You're correct about the animation expressions thing - I made the same comment about a Prager U video - how the characters were "bouncing around" for no reason other than their mouths were moving - and someone confirmed for me that the type of animation program used for this does exactly what you described (keyframing movements to expressions), except used in the laziest, most amateur way it could be utilized. In the aforementioned video, they had literally keyframed the entire body to the mouth movement, so it looked like the characters were talking with their hips.

1:15:17 but that is what happened... in the middle ages, at least. To get some sort of hegemony, the Merovingian Frankish rulers adopted christianity in order to get the church to condone their conquests, under the guise of "spreading the word of God". This phenomenon lasted until well in the modern era (up to the first world war, I believe).

did you guys know that he didn’t even create the patchman character? he saw a friend draw it and bought the character off of him. patchman. he spent money on patchman. i have a theory that people like this don’t have an imagination in the conventional sense. he can only mix together concepts he’s already seen, he can’t come up with anything new. that’s why his spirituality is a hodgepodge of other concepts.

[@lsmmoore1]

that creation myth Vaush came up with sounds to me like the type of myth you'd see from people whose ancestors were birds or some other egg-layer. After all, egg-layers copulate, an then they see things that get created before them as a result not just babies, actual things out of which things (the babies and needed parts) emerge. And eggs can be used as tools, in a way that placentas and other afterbirth cannot. So if an egg-layer (some kind of alien, say) had a spiritual outlook, that might be a common type of creation myth among them, across cultures on any of those planets where the people lay eggs.

in the old canaanite pantheon, the one which judaism was ultimately based on (that and other mesopotamian myths) there is the cycle of ba'al, every year it would happen that ba'al the rain and storm god and his sister anath the huntress goddess would go down to the sheol, the canaanite underworld (equivalent to hades, they didn't have hell) which was ruled by mot, the god of death, then according to the myth the two would face off mot, at the beginning of summer mot would eat ba'al and kill him, this caused the beginning of summer, then throughout all of summer and autumn anath his sister would fight mot until she would kill mot at the beginning of winter and resurrect her brother, thus bringing back the life giving rains of the winter, mot would then be revived by the end of spring, thus the cycle begins again.
