From Creator’s perspective, how would Creator characterize an open mind, and how such a mind would function, or should function ideally, in this highly problematic world?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society65 views0 answers0 votesHaving an open mind can seem unappealing to some, because it suggests a child-like vulnerability. Children are clearly much more open-minded than adults, and anyone with any experience around children knows how gullible and quick to believe anything children can be. How much is adult closed-mindedness a direct result and compensation for the vulnerability experienced as children?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society58 views0 answers0 votesChildren are not just gullible, they are also ignorant. However, even as children, lack of knowledge and understanding is quickly equated with stupidity. As a result, many if not most children learn early on that it is easier to pretend to know than it is to actually KNOW. As a result, rather than becoming truly educated and erudite, many people focus instead on fostering just the appearance of being mature and sophisticated rather than actually becoming truly mature and sophisticated. How widespread is this problem among humanity, and how much of it is a product of the interlopers versus being entirely human?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society51 views0 answers0 votesThere are two pathways to arriving at a conclusion about a matter. One is to investigate the underlying evidence, testimony, calculations, observations, etc., and the other is to simply borrow the conclusions of trusted others. Hence the overly heavy reliance on acquiring and showcasing credentials—so that one knows whom to trust as well as be trusted about a chosen specialty or body of knowledge. Is this human obsession with credentials only an issue in a free will physical environment?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society45 views0 answers0 votesThe more one pretends to know, versus how much they actually know, makes them increasingly vulnerable to unmasking, ridicule, and shaming from others—others who themselves are just as often pretending as not. Is this fear of being unmasked one of the principal motivators for those who are dedicated to exposing the phoniness of others?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society42 views0 answers0 votesPeer pressure is a huge factor in the development of particular coping skills. Peer pressure encourages individuals to act, to appear, to speak in matching ways with behaviors and beliefs that are not exactly helping one excel at the “art of living” in divine alignment. How much does the admonition “if you can’t beat them, join them” contribute to human complacency and compromise?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society44 views0 answers0 votesHow much is the fear of being ostracized, victimized, and exiled a contributing factor to being susceptible to mind control manipulation?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society59 views0 answers0 votesHow much do people equate consensus with safety? How much do tragic events in past lives contribute to an overwhelming need to seek acceptance from a majority or powerful minority?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society46 views0 answers0 votesThe love of truth, the capacity to have a truly open mind that weighs information dispassionately and without filters, seems like a lonely commitment. As much as the love of truth gets lip service, the reality appears to be that the individual is fighting appearances and pressures to conform every step of the way. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society45 views0 answers0 votesA life of truth is truly a life lived courageously in this world. Can Creator share how prayer work and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help both the individual and society at large to be more authentic in everything they do and express?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society57 views0 answers0 votesAccording to yourdictionary.com, “The definition of Marxism is the theory of Karl Marx which says that society’s classes are the cause of struggle and that society should have no classes.” Leaving Marx’s solution aside for the moment, what is Creator’s perspective on Marx’s diagnosis that class differentiation and class struggle is the primary cause of human difficulty and injustice?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society59 views0 answers0 votesAccording to yourdictionary.com, Capitalism is “an economic and political system in which a country’s trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.” Laissez-faire capitalism is “abstention by governments from interfering in the workings of the free market.” Marx argues that without oversight, laissez-faire capitalism leads to a concentration of wealth, and exploitation of the working classes by the propertied classes. What is Creator’s perspective on this outlook?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society64 views0 answers0 votesSome have speculated that Marx’s diagnosis of capitalism is mostly accurate, and realistically assesses the legitimate downside of capitalism, but that his solution is utopian, impossibly idealistic, and completely unworkable as he envisioned it. What is Creator’s assessment of this outlook on Marx and his contribution to society?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society58 views0 answers0 votesOne of the biggest worries with laissez-faire capitalism is the almost inevitable development of monopolies. What is Creator’s perspective on this hazard of capitalism?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society59 views0 answers0 votesA student speculates that there are in fact two kinds of capitalism in conflict with each other: Entrepreneurial Capitalism versus Monopoly Capitalism. Society itself values entrepreneurial capitalism because it champions competition and encourages innovation. Society, on the other hand, suffers under monopolies as they tend to be anti-competitive and highly prone to engage in anti-competitive practices. Prices tend to go up, quality tends to go down, and workers are exploited as there is no competition for their labor. What is Creator’s perspective on these two proposed categories of capitalism?ClosedNicola asked 4 months ago • Problems in Society64 views0 answers0 votes
