Mystical experiences
So, I've encountered a few ppl now who claim to have had mystical experiences, in graphic detail. I find it interesting the level of detail they are willing to go into. My reaction is akin to the professor in chronicles on Narnia. There are really three options. 1. They're lying for attention. Though it does seem like a strange thing to boast of because most ppl will just think you sound crazy. 2. Psychosis, probably some type of schizophrenia. I didn't think they seemed dangerous or anything though. This seems most likely to me. This would confirm they actually believe the accounts they share. Even though it is a split from reality, it felt real to them. 3. They are telling the truth. I'm not quite so arrogant as to deny such things couldn't possibly exist just because I haven't experienced them. Though I believe we would have a lot more objective evidence by now if they were. So my questions: Have you had a mystical experience(ghosts, Astral projection, etc)? Do you remember it in clear detail? Did you run any objective tests to minimize bias/hallucinations? (edited)

Yes astral projection is real, I only did it once and things happened during that experience enough for me to know it was real. There is no objective way to prove any of this to anyone, and I won’t say that some people might fall in buckets 1 and 2, but honestly if you really want to know just do it for yourself. I spent a couple months giving a good effort into studying the methods given online to disprove it for myself and ended up confirming it. This is a potentially inaccurate statement, but I think most people automatically default to believing anyone who says these things exist in buckets 1 and 2 and leave it at that, and therefore only the few who do it themselves know what is actually true.

I think its a comfort thing for people tbh. Death can seem terrifying and reality is unforgiving so having something to hold onto like that gives comfort. Also the brain is very weird and not very well understood. It can do crazy things. Like how hypoxia causes near death experiences.

Not to be racist, but...
All jokes aside and this doesn't bug me, but I find it hilarious. I can promise that at some point or another, not naming any ethnic group, but i can PRACTICALLY promise you've seen in one or more persons bio- "Firey *insert race here*" BUT I write something similar.. 😅

in a trolley problem scenario (there's a trolley coming to kill 4 people and one person can divert it by pulling a lever), where both sides have the same 4 people, would it be ethical for the person to pull the lever just because he has a deep desire/curiosity to see what it would be like to kill?

Your worst fear
What is your worst fear? For me, it is falling in a crevasse on a glacier. Walking on a snow bridge and the horror "trapdoor" scenario occurs. Dozens of meters deep, a dark, cold chasm. Sometimes with a river on the bottom too. That's why you always travel roped and prepared on a glacier, but... read more

Funny how some people reduce relationships to 'being used' vs. 'being wanted'—as if genuine connection isn’t a two-way street

If I've offended you What was it?
Here's your chance to take a shot at me. The debate floor is open. How can I improve if I don't know what it was, right 🤔? I'm a fair ENTP, and willing to make compromises. But you'll have to voice them. (edited)

I’m a little Antilitic but I keep hearing News, Congress, and keep hearing got to protect the Democracy. I’ve read all 6 Constitutions we have in America, and the Pledge of Allegiance the American Flag and I don’t see the word Democracy in any of them. What does this mean to you?

Polyamory is Pointless. Change my mind!
1. Women's periods synch up. No thanks. Shark week i would go into hiding. 2. It's very hard to find one decent person that's worthwhile. Let alone attempt to find multiple. 3. JEALOUSY! I don't care how much you care about all of them you definitely favor one over all of them. Why is this worth... (edited) read more
