Hmmmm. Well I doubt you're the only one :)
Nevertheless, I do think there tends to be an emphasis on rationality and quantitative research here at the expense of emotional/spiritual and qualitative research. But, perhaps the majority of Tipsters are "quantitative types" and the content of the posts is a reflection of this. Hopefully though, it doesn't stop others posting about the emotional/spiritual/qualitative aspects of human experience and the psychology of such. I would agree that the Eurocentric position has all too often elevated rationality such that it appears to be the be-all and end-all of life. But as most average people already know, in real life rationality usually takes a back seat to emotion and spirituality (whatever they are). After all, no-one claims to be in love after a rational assessment of the "facts". --Mike On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 5:49 PM, michael sylvester <[email protected]>wrote: > > The Eurocentric conditioning and training and perspectives expressed on > Tips all lead to the same road.It is the road that is paved with conclusions > that if a phenomenon can not be scientifically verifiable and if data do > not come from a credible source then the data should be discarded.I am, > ironically ,the only tipster that implements the criitical thinking > guideline of considering other interpretations. > Some tipsters are in a box and unable to demonstrate brain flexibility > function.Reducing > the idea of mindfulness to agey and other therapeutic touchy feely factors > is a disservice to the variety of human existential experience.I have only > one thing to say to the boxed in Eurocentric consensus and it is a quote > from Michael Jackson -"Beat it!" > > Michael Sylvester,PhD > Daytona Beach,Florida > > > --- > To make changes to your subscription contact: > > Bill Southerly ([email protected]) > > --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly ([email protected])
