Re: Children Covid Vaccinations

I’m confused as to what lung damage which shows up on imaging but has no symptoms would be, but other than that I don’t find it too surprising I guess. It's called homeostasis. It is most often a factor in trauma. The body tries it's best to keep the balance and hide the damage. Most dangerous in c...

Re: Chappelle's The Closer

It is simply a matter of getting to them young for queer ideologists. A brainwashing, just like in a strict fundamentalist Christian upbringing. To what end? What is this so-called "agenda? Fully automated luxury gay space communism obviously. https://cdn.pastemagazine.com/www/articles/UBIMain...

Re: Chappelle's The Closer

I don't think being trans is well understood, particularity by trans people I know. It does seem to have stages and periods of growth if the abuse is not too bad. It doesn't really effect me and I think in the first special Chapelle was punching down. In the next special his rebuttal was rather deva...

Re: Children Covid Vaccinations

I call brain and heart lesions that can be found in imaging major organ damage. I consider those organs very valuable and both can be damaged permanently. Covid often has a neurological component. Some put CNS involvement at 80%. Loss of smell, etc are often the first symptoms. Kids immune systems m...

Re: Children Covid Vaccinations

It should probably be mandated for children. Doctor's exemption only. Kids are just better at maintaining homeostasis. A deeper dive with MRIs still finds massive organ damage as the above study of college athletes indicates. https://i.ibb.co/Zzt96kz/247383745-6449218095148145-8058121533288026861-n....

Re: Children Covid Vaccinations

In the Netherlands children from age 12 to 17 can get vaccinated. If I had children in that age bracket I would indeed get them vaccinated. I understand children under age 11 are soon eligible for a vaccine in the US? Intensive care units here are full of the (adult) unvaccinated. The Dutch bible b...

Re: Children Covid Vaccinations

Based on the chances of children having an adverse vaccine reaction versus the current probability of them catching Covid and having a major complication the vaccine is the right choice. But I get many people don't understand math.

Re: When does one "steal"?

Aren't you the one doing all the work and making all the money?
Wouldn't that mean the owner is the one stealing from you?

Re: The Eightfold Path and CBT

To those in the know, I would guess that doing CBT on one's own (with no therapist) is about as ill-advised as doing Buddhism on one's own (with no teacher), yes? The doc disagrees. The luxury to take tons of therapy is incredibly elitist. How many 175$ sessions can you afford per year? There is a ...

Re: The Eightfold Path and CBT

I am a fan of CBT. So much better than the therapy they forced us to take in the military with all the drugs and psychological manipulation. I take it for fun now since we get free therapy.

Re: There's a reincarnation of Chogyam Trungpa and emanation of Padmasambhava?

And now we have the wait and see whether the paternity test for Karmapa OTD proves to be positive or not, should there be one. How many Karma Kagyus will refuse to accept the results if they are positive? And if there isn't one, because that case in Canada is settled out of court, how many Karma Ka...

Re: Having sex with someone's partner

It's an interesting talk but I think the missed point is how different people can be. You can be in virtuous multipartner relationships that turn into lifelong friendships. Never seen it happen. Someone always gets burned. It works well for bisexual women. Especially ones who want to remain in the ...

Re: Importance and Benefit of Ngondro

I think there is a lot of doubts now. The old generation of Tibetans were unique. When they attained realization it was a personal transcendent experience that they then tried to teach others how to achieve. Now it seems different to me. It feels like an ego acting how they imagine an enlightened be...
