Greetings Willblake2,
Oooh, you want to discuss Social Level
patterns. I've disconnected my television, so
maybe you can tell me how they work.

Hi All,
Group reality can be felt, I feel it on a soccer field, I feel it in a movie.
I see it bring the economy up and down, I read about it creating
civilizations and then bringing them down.
We can call them illusional or delusional, all the more reason to
discuss them.
My point is that group reality has it's own consciousness which is
just as real to it, as my mind is to me. It has behavior, it reacts and
modifies itself through interaction and learning. By only focussing
on our inward feelings and reality as is suggested by the End
of Philosophy, seems to me to leave a whole aspect of our
experience out.
As I understand Quality, it encompasses different levels.
It would be a shame to limit it.
Cheers,
Willblake2

Hi Andre,
Or Lila might say it is whatever you say it is, you cannot lie.

p.s. I also read 'The Social Construction of
Reality'. It had me walking around dazed for
weeks. I don't get the referenced link between
the watch and sexual harassment.
