skepticism
OK! So what is constructive skeptical philosophy?
OK! So what is constructive skeptical philosophy? My understanding of "skeptical philosophy" would be, e.g., Hume. Philosophy that emphasizes empiricism and is distant from "metaphysical speculation." It might be related to the current "skeptical movement" which discounts or... 👽 aliens and angels 👼 . We’re driving on 620, passing one of those statue places that has a bunch of big metal dinosaurs, big green alien statues, flamingo statues, etc.
Me, to Jack:
What do you see buddy?
Jack:A flamingo!
Jordan:Yes! What else?
Jack:An angel
Jordan:Yeah, where?
Jack:The big green thing
What do you make of this?
I’m starting to take this idea pretty seriously: the universe is filled with subtle energy
beings
that have some overlap with our realm, and some not.One of the strange factors about the beings/energy is that it can’t be perceived directly in the concrete realm through our normal five senses, so we have unique
APIs
that translate these beings into a cultural context that makes sense. So the samebeing
could be seen as an angle, or a hindu god, or an alien, or simplyenergy
depending on the person. My guess is this helps account forplant teachers,
DMT entities, UAPs, etc.; although I realize this is extremely hand wavey on the details.It's hard to take this comment too seriously. How do you "teach" what a "real" ANYTHING is that hasn't been proven to even exist in over 2000 years? Let alone claim to know what they definitely are not. This sounds more like brainwashing and a coherced belief system....
