What is Love - again?
I'm not asking - again - its just the Headline What can I tell? Well, at first, What do I tell? Uhm, how do I do come to write what I write? What is the "Empirical" basis or, whats the point? Well - I've been there that I wasn't so sure what all that Kink stuff would be about anyway, sotosay, which is as good as an "Offset" to get to -the Point-, if there is one. So, like an ordinary person would think that all that Kink is just ... by the way ... I didn't understand it either. What you need to forget though is that this 'intro' is going to be like a Porn screenplay - along the lines of: "Oh, I spilled a glass of Water, now lets Gangbang!" - like - totally arbitrary incident, totally off the ground argumentation ... done. In case it would seem that way - don't look at the reasoning, but try to think of the individual. A Hot woman wanting to seduce a man might be a good example, but, its not unflawed because she might have other reasons but to have Sex, like, fishing a rich guy or whatever else.
As for the Empirical Foundation
It can be explained rather quick! Reading and Understanding the Bible - is Free Love Forbidden? I ask that question to basically getting it sorted that there now is an ideological Background - the Gospel - basically as in Challenging You. In that sense I do know the one or the other Verse that might come up. So, that would take us into an Argument about the Doctrine. While the Doctrine is simple (3 Nephi 11:somewhere) - I have my Verses to tell you my view of the Story. If you can't meet me on that one ... as you are offended from a Biblical Perspective ... I ignore you, here, while assuming that you aren't liking the Book of Mormon I would encourage you to Check the Doctrine contained in the Book of Mormon at first - so - finding passages within the New Testament that confirm it (although the entire 'Authority to Baptise' thing - thats a bit of a hastle - but if you want to you can find stuff!), and then check what holes you think might be left.
Aside of that the stand regarding the Gospel should be clear. As of that I say that it isn't Forbidden - yet what remains is an issue, a simple say so, saying: Its not socially feasible! Envy/Jealousy, vague Outlines - as of unclear restrictions that cause problems, well - things like that. So, we see already that - except I'm maybe missing something - a counter stance isn't really empiric or more empiric than my belief that it can work. To get to an empirical foundation - that much should be evident - we have to investigate. Simply because we don't see one doesn't say that there is none.
But what do we know? What do others know that we don't know yet? I know of something called the Light of Christ. It is a Mormon Term for saying that the Spirit of God works in us at all time, thus allowing us to internally know between right and wrong. Now, beginning the Moment that I say that this to me doesn't mean that Free Love shouldn't be practiced, mingles with ... [to follow] and arouses me in a way that causes an emotion I would relate to Kink. What it mingles with is the 'consciousness' or 'understanding' - that I would express the following way: If I believe that Free Love isn't forbidden, while possibly recognized differently from person to person, and I check in my heart for anything negative and it doesn't show up it might as well be good to the point where I know how I sexually roll in regards to which a confirmation would affirm that in basis and required compliances. What I mean, basically, is that what my Argumentation is mostly founding on. Ignoring any Biblical say so's (which are discussed in the previous, your bad if you think its nonsense right away! [ergo -> The Seal of the One is about adding significance to my argumentation - PERIOD]) I would simply found on my belief and start investigation there. Encountering odds puts me into an intellectual conflict that I may either resolve by realizing how a counter-oppinion would remain defendable in context or otherwise Asking the Lord for guidance. To otherwise say: While all the counter-stances to my belief don't satisfy/convince me I'm eventually pushed to ask God for a Testimony although it would seem unreasonable (Saying that I needed a Testimony as emotional 'support' to my intellectual stance). To push forward to an empirical base wouldn't mean to allow myself being influenced by equally unfounded oppinion as mine - but likely that nobody has ever endeavoured far enough into that from the right angle/perspective.
In the idea: The previous Paragraphs were to introduce the concept of investigating a matter. If though this Paragraph once more were polluted by issues to stop doing so, it stands clear how this investigation wouldn't happen. "Again and Again, over and over". While all of it 'speaks' against it, none of it is really founded. IF something is really founded, then the direction I'm taking in response to the Testimony of God! At some point it might be a matter of Logic that when I believe "so much" (although the Truth was that I didn't - I was utterly uncomfortable) - that it would have to come down to me investigating that matter. What I came to encounter 'now/previously' has fed the simple endeavour of testing the Light of Christ. What I realized though is that there is an 'odd zone', regarding the Light of Christ, which is between not doing so and doing it the right way. Well, who would have guessed?
Back then I realized that a positive result would be appreciated by various sub-cultures, although, I then later had to realize that it doesn't bridge the most sever and by the way universally existent Gap - that between the individual and God. I had to realize that any sub-cultures stance to the Gospel wouldn't change just due to the fact that the Gospel in-deed supports it!
What did after all turn out to be the most valid - and closest to Empiric - foundation in this all is ones own self. "By the Rod you're measuring with you will be Measured!". So the idea: That after 'warming up' the individual is in a stance where it makes sense to further think of how that relates to society, and no sooner! Warming up means that within a society like the one I grew up in the own self started to adapt and furthermore sophisticate various social forms that are at potential odds with "the Sexual Self". What would you be like in a world where Sex were as common as shaking hands? Its not a question I'm going to answer here - I'm trying to tell that we impose our own rules but aren't likely to do so while restrained by social norms. Warming up may otherwise be described as "Finding the own Self" or other things that sound as though it were a process of changing into something we're not. The more you know though that you like something, the more you make it to a rule. Like for instance trying to prohibit Sports - does cause what? It would impose a new Norm, in which context the one who likes Sports is metaphorically 'the True Self' that contradicts to it. It may sound ridicolous, but if our civilization would in majority consist of "slimsters" - so - slim folks to which sport is an inacceptable drain of energy, thus being a source of intellectual stagnation - it could become socially feasible. [Not even accounting for all the bad side effects of it, like, Aggression or - Sports as a Gateway Drug to Militaristic Activity]. Thus I want to point out that phrases that pronounce the positivity of Freedom, Individuality and Variety don't only sound good! Saying that Free Love can't work is like saying that Freedom can't! (I'm sure there are those that would defend that, but I'm also sure that they'll get outvoted! Thus I'm sure the discussion will turn into a discussion of how the ordinary citizen is incapable of making decisions of such magnitude - in which place we might just be sarcastic and shout "HEIL HITLER!" - as you may as well come to understand my frequent sparks of anger where I'd express my willingness to add - if must be - significance to my arguments using a Baseball Bat myself ... but so as well, finally, how it isn't an actual violent intent but just more or less a figure of speech - although sometimes ... [Homer squeezing Barts Neck] ... sotospeak. Thus I will have to add that the matter is so an issue of whom we are going to trust in making the right decisions. Because I assume that the whole back and forth about the Testimony has been chewed to death and yet not peacefully settled - as me beginning to write about it might become too much of a "convulated hustle" at this point - I'm back at the point where I propose we take advantage of Democracy, and the virtue so called 'Liberty'.).
The imposing of Rules (as the 'matter of the own self') did at some point turn out to be even more significant than just Free Love. Free Love 'might' in the end just remain to be a marginal thing - however so the imposed idea to see it from a less Sex-Centric perspective. Imposing Rules yields Righteousness. Because it is a 'common sense' that a peaceful society demands adaptation, it is the one who imposes a rule that demands so to begin with. This means that as a living Human Being we 'should' have the Right ... otherwise formulated as "Freedom of Speech". (The American Spirit is a nice thing! Its just these Morons that break it!). If this is yet not empiric enough for you, it is at least yet a Universal Good! Naturally this also means that not every demand can be comforted - but like Particles behave entirely "unphysical" on a Quantum-Physical Level, there are Levels and Spheres wherein this Principle is again individually significant. This also is the 'Hard Core' of the Science where a Quint-Essential demand of making it right is to also align to God! God in that sense is like the Perfect Mirror, thus also while aligning individually to the individually the product is individualistic - thus - nobody can effectively tell the other "to recognize the Lord" once all are doing it right - since the Lord is individually true to the individual. By Perfect Mirror I say that an alignment to God is an alignment to a Transient being that is furthermore Superior so that an Alignment to Him is equally an Alignment to the rest. So: While between "You and I" we have no guiding reference to what is right; In terms of Demand and Submission; God can for once as personal Guide support us to find what is right for Us - and as Universal God take care that those things work together. [The Concept that God is not to be mistaken for an ordinary individual is a primary Gnostic concept. Though He has features of an individual - He is far more!]
A dead givaway
It should as of that be obvious why or how I'm always comming back to Kink. There is however an issue with that, so, like the mixture of warm and cold is a thing that can cause literal havoc, like, Tornados. It is also odd that when someone I were to be with (or even beginning to say that there is something like a pre-determination) would now project that the outcome must be compatible to mine. Yet I doubt, except the individual is cold like sub-zero, that it will be hard to find. In that general sense I can either be "Luke" - so - somewhere in between for the purpose of being less odd - or just Hot to the point of being a reference. Obviously this reference isn't to be taken as absolute - but still close enough. I have though written of it in extreme detail, well, so for that time at least, (Star Trek Fanfare would do - at least it works for me!), but so all that is 'included' within that initially expressed stance of re-questioning it all. **+Hash+** Yet I'm not questioning the bare essentials, or, that is: When I become aware of them again.
It is of course a back and forth, but this back and forth - so the point - isn't between a Full Yes and a Full No. Its simply not "mind chemically" possible if you understand that I have warmed myself up on something, it would definitely take time for me to fully distanciate myself from it while at the point I have no reason to believe that it were wrong! To -Enlighten- the reader on a bit - lets say 'Prostitution' would be a nice example. What do you know of it? Well, I know, that the word 'Spectrum' is a nice way to start. Some might see horrible images of female suffering, others might see Sluts at their best - what is right? Both! From the one into the other extreme - including the sad middle that contains a bit of both. So an initially one sided image becomes a slide-show or movie - we might say - or so a book with a beginning, a core and an end. Each page is different from the other - and so - is it not a question whether or what how Kink who - but in the most part a matter of positive alignments.
I have previously mentioned a physical analogy. The imposition of Rules when regarded on a civilian Level could be compared to the Macro of Physical Particles, so, Resources or whatever. But when withdrawing all possible demand from the Picture - just saying 'Paradise Now' - the upcomming of Demands is the very basis of Social co-existence. Thereby I don't mean to say that I demand anything, but that Logic demands 'something'. Now is it so that while I'm alone with God there is the simple demand of Growth - to possibly comply to the needs - but so it is implied that it isn't my demand. It may not even be His, yet is it the demand of Righteousness that we be preaching the Truth! I might want to compare that to an echo. If I shout 'Truth' into the Forrest and out comes 'Bullshit' - I can draw my own conclusions. Its like 'Testing' my Environment - it also shows the state of this world.
So, I have this one friend - and with him I can basically talk like I would imagine a conversation with an ordinary person - within our own realms of interest - which is different to being blatantly commented as a literal idiot. He shares my experiences in that regard. He had a nice anecdote about it as well. They had a cat, and that cat had a bad stomach so it would constantly throw up. So his girlfriend suggested to mix her food with rice and potatoes and it worked. So, telling his mum that this solution worked she simply replied that its nonsense - so leaving the discussion with said perspective that whatever he said is nonsense because it is he who said it and not because its nonsense. There also is a racist joke - that goes like: How many [....] does it take to screw in a bulb? Well, 5! One to hold the bulb and four to twist the table hes standing on. Now comes along some person who suggested that one might be sufficient. But the [....] know it better - its just ... a scenario. What I mean in terms of the state of our world is that! It isn't the Truth that matters, but it is who sais it. Since I'm of those guys that are always wrong - I can't be the one to speak the Truth - ordinarily. How to measure intellect? Just going by the IQ? Is the IQ Safe? Who sais that?
This person I mentioned did also point out that smoking weed would not make someone smarter - thus - landing somehow on the discussion regarding that. He pointed out that with no other drug people are so - 'Religious' - and advocative. So I concluded - it may possibly be because there is something good about it, just for the ordinary pothead to legally express what it is he would have to be educated enough. The generic pothead might say that it makes someone 'smarter', but 'smart' is in that case just the closest word to express what otherwise is like on the tip of the tongue but doesn't quite want to come out. I can't denie that there are down-sides, like something I wrote sometime about Memory. I took the idea of 10 Grey Cells that are ordinarily online and all filled up equally. When High, some of them are offline, thus more data is packed into the remaining cells online. Once they turn back online the pothead experiences that in a very genuine way as these packed memories start to unpack - so - some impressions are very intense and others are blurry. What I'm aiming at is that to my knowledge there is another side to the physiological brain - while some might call it Soul, I do generalize and say Spirit/Mind/Consciousness - although it isn't entirely clear where to draw the line, thus, Spirit is OK. Thus I say: My physical inferiority doesn't matter while I am yet Spiritually capable of comprehending a thing. In that case I yet have an IQ of 117 - but an Understanding of - who knows? What I know is that Math is something I do have problems with. I do understand the Logic, but as it gets deeper I have to usually recall by rewriting formulas on paper to understand it for the time being so I can translate that into code (Information Technology). What I do say is that my Spirit (blurry lines) somewhat seems to resist when it comes to accepting the 'naked Math', -Analytical Geometry- as prime example of a Math that is beyond me. It may be strictly coupled to the very essence of my basic self where I did since ever have problems with just memorizing a matter. But which cables of the SNES had to go where, that is simply logic. Or how to construct a Pneumatic Arm (Lego Technic). So, apparently it must be wired into my DNA that my physical Consciousness is simply not compatible to me having a mathematical in-depth knowledge, or in other ways: I do work better with things that are different. Things that I can see while they work. As of my Logic that means that I do by what I am simply come to be better at some things than at others - and at the end I have to be respected for what I am.
Back to Loving
It is a social problem, finally, to Understand where to begin setting up rules. That finally ends when questioning 'whom', if any, to allow having the final word. But as some motion pictures come to sometimes picture the ... Stargate SG1 - The Guardian (or something like that) ... which features an interesting setup. There is a peaceful nation on some planet and they are Protected by a Weapon they call 'the Guardian'. Some earthling however broke it, and now to misfortune bad luck is added and the Gua'Uld come to know about that - thus sending their Armies to conquer that Planet. The Jaffa imposes the Old Man, the leader of said people, with the traditional Jaffa Logic: "You will be enslaved to Serve our Master" - and the response of the Old Man is so simply: "But me and my people don't have any desires to serve this "Svarok"". If people want to eat, and they live in a civilized world, they go to those that provide food. We know how it works. We also know people that are from their own upset about things that seem to be going wrong here and there. After all this is a stub of what we can be, if we get organized. Its, lets say, Logistics is a very important part of our civilization. Without it, we would be in deep shit! But we don't need anyone to rule anything - we only need to get organized! Naturally this won't come over night, but when it does - and I was wrong - then well, at least it was good after all.
In regards to Spectrum we can also say: In how far are we affected by what reign - but also: How far does the Sex go? Err - well! Pardon me that I seem to have skipped out on Love. Well, what is it - can I tell? I think I can't! I can though believe that Passion and Love come together - for I'd say that it is best when my Demands arrive where they are not an odd, but being like demanded for.
The problem to my Understanding here is to wonder in how far I am myself responsible of my Kinks - in how far I may carry these thoughts; Whereto I have a simple conclusion. I am myself ... attracted ... to a specific situation - and - whether that situation is just general, tied to anyone who might be compatible to it, or specific in that the factually attractive emotion is a product of a given alignment. It has been conclusive to me though that without an Anchor of sorts I'm kindof lost. Which is also in about the stand this article is going to end because any further, well, is my own problem I have to deal with. In this situation I feel joy when having Sex, yet that during that Sex my mind knows two forms of alignment. I either believe that I'm being raped, thus enjoying the joys of getting raped, while I can only directly enjoy the intercourse when I say in my mind that I Love being raped. Its like Brainwash because it - it certainly is. This may at first as well only be real for my female side. In terms of spectrum that however needs to align, so, if there were only one person who on top of that might be really busy - this may also only concern a single night of a week. This is naturally as far as I can reach without someone who does enter my realm who fulfills the criteria of being a valid reference to these issues. Thus, while there is nothing new to it, this all is of course simply theory. Good Night!
