All covetousness is spiritual. …Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 13 hours ago • Problems in Society9 views0 answers0 votesWilliam Penn wrote: “Covetousness is the greatest of monsters, as well as the root of all evil.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 13 hours ago • Problems in Society6 views0 answers0 votesThomas Sprat said: “Covetousness, by a greediness of getting more, deprives itself of the true end of getting; it loses the enjoyment of what it had got.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 13 hours ago • Problems in Society5 views0 answers0 votesEpictetus said: “Covetousness like jealousy, when it has taken root, never leaves a person, but with their life.” Actually, that is probably not entirely true as covetousness becomes a karmic dilemma that grows and rebirth brings around again and again the circumstances that trigger covetousness, but with greater intensity and imperative with each go-around. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 13 hours ago • Problems in Society4 views0 answers0 votesWilliam Mason said: “Consider the evil of covetousness. That insatiable desire prevents present contentment, destroys thankfulness, yes, and keeps the enjoyment of Christ out of the heart…” Can Creator tell us if this is indeed true as opposed to mostly true? Is covetousness truly an INSATIABLE desire—a thirst that can never be quenched? And if it is, how is it that consciousness can fall into such a condition? Is covetousness only a problem with sentient souls, or can lower life forms struggle with this as well? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 14 hours ago • Problems in Society4 views0 answers0 votesFrances Bacon said: “The covetous man cannot so properly be said to possess wealth, as that may be said to possess him.” Bacon is suggesting that covetousness is a form of obsession, and perhaps even a form of possession. Can Creator share with us how interlopers, spirit attachments, and even mind control manipulation can aggravate and take advantage of this proclivity, this vulnerability?ClosedNicola asked 14 hours ago • Problems in Society4 views0 answers0 votesMartha Stout, PhD, wrote about the problem of “covetous sociopathy” in her book, The Sociopath Next Door. She writes, “The covetous sociopath thinks that life has cheated her somehow, has not given her nearly the same bounty as other people, and so she must even the existential score by robbing people, by secretly causing destruction in other lives. She believes she has been slighted by nature, circumstances, and destiny, and that diminishing other people is her only means of being powerful. Retribution, usually against people who have no idea that they have been targeted, is the most important activity in the covetous sociopath’s life, her highest priority.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 14 hours ago • Problems in Society5 views0 answers0 votesMartha Stout wrote: “What sociopaths envy, and may seek to destroy as part of the game, is usually something in the character structure of a person with conscience, and strong characters are often specifically targeted by sociopaths. Sociopaths want to play their game with other people. This simple but crucial observation implies that, in sociopathy, there remains some innate identification with other human beings, a tie with the species itself. However, this thin inborn connection, is one-dimensional and sterile, especially when contrasted with the vast array of complex and highly charged emotional responses most people have to one another and to their fellow human beings as a group.” Covetousness seems to be a form of envy. Is envy really the last “connection” the sociopath has to other beings?

Is it the joy and happiness we feel with each other on account of our loving nature that they do not possess nor understand? By sheer observation they can see how pleasurable and satisfying a healthy love relationship can be, and while they might tell themselves it’s all silly foolishness, deep down, do they “know” it’s not? Do they suspect they are “missing out” on something and does this fuel their hatred? Is their arrogance and self-aggrandizement really a cover for deep unrelenting pain they can never successfully suppress entirely? Really, WHY do they hate us so much? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 14 hours ago • Problems in Society15 views0 answers0 votesWe are once again face to face with a divine-level problem—the problem of healing covetousness. But while the details of healing are carried out by the divine, nothing happens without our intention enabling that healing to be carried out. If divine healing were a pizza, it wouldn’t arrive at your door on its own. You have to order and pay for it. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer, the Lightworker Healing Protocol, Deep Subconscious Mind Reset, and Divine Life Support are the means, really the only means, by which the covetous heart can be healed in all beings, both physical and spiritual?ClosedNicola asked 14 hours ago • Problems in Society7 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Amongst physically incarnated sentient species, are there more psychopaths in the galaxy than non-psychopaths?”ClosedNicola asked 19 hours ago • Problems in Society11 views0 answers0 votesIt’s difficult to coherently discuss a problem when there is widespread confusion and no consensus on definitions. The words “psychopath” and “sociopath” are often used interchangeably, but some professionals and academics say there are important differences. One says, “Psychopathic behavior often results more from genetics or a congenital injury, whereas sociopathy is more from environmental factors.” Google’s AI overview lists these differences: Empathy and Remorse: Psychopaths have a complete lack of empathy and remorse, while sociopaths may show some degree of these emotions. Impulsivity: Psychopaths are more calculated and manipulative, while sociopaths are more impulsive and prone to erratic behavior. Causes: Psychopathy is thought to have a stronger genetic component, while sociopathy is more likely to be caused by environmental factors. A bestselling author would say both are essentially “without a conscience.” Can Creator comment on the usefulness or lack thereof of these definitions, and provide us with Creator’s definition of the problem, and best way to label and describe it?ClosedNicola asked 1 day ago • Problems in Society15 views0 answers0 votesBestselling Psychologist Martha Stout, Ph.D. wrote the bestseller, The Sociopath Next Door. She regards sociopaths as those “without a conscience” – which is how it is presumed Creator would define it. She would likely characterize psychopaths as simply more overtly violent sociopaths. She described sociopaths as possessing “a noncorrectable disfigurement of character that is now thought to be present in about 4 percent of the population – that is to say, one in twenty-five people.” She writes of sociopaths: “Sociopaths have a greater than normal need for stimulation, which results in their frequent social, physical, financial, or legal risks. And sociopaths are noted especially for their shallowness of emotion, the hollow and transient nature of any affectionate feelings they may claim to have, a certain breathtaking callousness. They have no trace of empathy and no genuine interest in bonding emotionally with a mate. Once the surface charm is scraped off, their marriages are loveless, one-sided, and almost always short term.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 day ago • Problems in Society5 views0 answers0 votesSociopaths make up only four percent of the human population, but according to Creator, they make up one hundred percent of all three physical extraterrestrial species interacting with Earth. Since we have little opportunity to study and observe alien behavior and civilizations, would becoming familiar with human sociopaths provide us with helpful and compelling insights into the nature and behaviors of these extraterrestrials?ClosedNicola asked 1 day ago • Problems in Society12 views0 answers0 votesDr. Stout wrote, “Sociopaths have a greater than normal need for stimulation.” She also wrote: “In fact, terrorism (done from a distance) is the ideal occupation for a person who is possessed of blood lust and no conscience, because if you do it just right, you may be able to make a whole nation jump. And if that is not power, what is?” How about making an entire WORLD jump? Dr. Stout seems to have absolutely nailed the entire human dilemma with these observations. People wonder, how could “advanced beings” act this way? Well, they are “advanced sociopaths,” and this is how they are behaving. Apparently, with their “greater than normal” need for stimulation.
