We are one person then. constantly at literal and figurative war with one another. This, at best, is a psychotic, individual. I reject it, unless someone comes up with better reasoning, Whatever Bruno came up with, it seems unrelated to this conclusion. Unless the Microsoft slogan refers to MWI?
What if we were all one person? Jung said "we are each of us, the eyes and the ears of God." Now, hold that thought in your, ahem, mind for a while. Add to that Bruno's notion of the dividing, self-replicating algorithm, the amoeba's eternal rhythm of self-multiplication. Each of our various selves both in our lives as the various selves (roles) we embody as much as our multiversal signature are to us as our children are to us. You recognise yourself in your child, yet you call another person stranger. Yet that is only proximity of bloodlines. Look hard and you may see a tiny piece of yourself in someone you are not related to. But it might not be in the physical. Can anyone place a Yellow Hat on and give me the benefits of making "as if" we were all one? Didn't Lennon or someone write a song about the world being one? Why do people stumble over themselves trying to write this idea off as New Age ditzy nonsense? What if life really was like that ancient Microsoft slogan "where do you want to go today?" Helps maybe to have lots of selves all going in different directions. Each one comes up with a piece of the big picture. Kim Kim Jones B. Mus.

Lol, really Brent? If you read the post without hunting instincts you'll see that implication chain collapse on itself. Nobody claims any of that with the strength you frame. I refuse to play this game where you get to knock down such generalization with partial edited posts, pretending they are held by anybody here in these strong forms, when you appear to needle and provoke the same complex of ambiguous topics over and over; it's almost as if you want to hear some immaterialist fairytale story sometimes, and then knock down anybody that takes bait. If you want to see your relations to people as some derivative of materialist flavored evolution or some cosmic holistic thing... go ahead. No bite here. Your point is what concerning person, identity, or difference? If they aren't ambiguous and we don't believe the Bee Gees, then fine, no problem. I guess you have something clear to offer. Blow our minds then :-) But you overlook that the fascists regarded the state as a superorganism so that each person was part of the same "being", while the liberal democracies held that individuals are the locus of values. No. I said that identity etc is unclear. PGC -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
