And how does this relate to philosophy and spiritual growth?
Funology and Pooter started the derail.

I'm merely answering the questions.

You do know don't you that Chomsky vigorously defended Pol Pot long after it was fashionable to do so?
Metapedia is an explicitly anti-Semitic and fascist website. As noted by Hopey, it was originally created as an alternative to wikipedia by far-right Swedish nationalists. For examples, read the articles on how the Holocaust was mostly a hoax, or about the "controversial" legacy of Adolf Hitler, who, while condemned by some is regarded as a hero by others.

Do you see why your noting that some of the Weather Underground were Jewish as referenced by this source is seen by some of us as part of an anti-Semitic agenda? We have two options--either you are too incompetent to realize that you are relying on racist sources for your information, or like metapedia itself, you have an anti-Semitic agenda and so are selectively noting facts in such a way as to suggest nefarious Jewish conspiracies.

I would like to think it is the first, but generally speaking, once a mistake is pointed out, you should acknowledge it if you think it is one. So do you?

Yes it does seem delinquent of me but in a society where everything is censored how do you know you're getting all the information and the truth?

Call me unsurprised that she is completely unapologetic for linking to a hate site and posting quotes from anti-semitic literature.

This is similar to her reaction when she was called to task for posting links and quotes from the NAMBLA site.

She is completely incapable of admitting that she is wrong and/or feeling shame.

I certainly don't owe anyone an apology. If you can't think freely that's your problem or maybe you've allowed an undue influence to gain ground on you.

God never censors the bible though he's more tasteful in presenting the uncensored than the world is.

If everything is censored how could your mind ever learn to sort good from evil?

"Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are blocked in China, which uses a filtering "firewall" to prevent Internet users from seeing overseas web sites with content anathema to the Communist Party."

This is complete gibberish.

Now to get back on topic.

Please consider what it means to be "slow to anger."

I think learning how to think slowly may be a spiritual key to meditative thinking and developing a more godly mind.

People are in the habit of thinking too quickly. As Skylansky says in his "Theory of Poker" to be a successful poker you have to be a quick thinker.

But what if one of the keys to accessing the spiritual is to slow down...slow down and think deeply and drink the thought in...the way one breathes in meditatively in doing Yoga?

There's no rushing in meditation. And if you read the bible God never seems to rush in...

So why do we think so fast? How can you turn from a mistake if you think too fast?

1 Timothy 4:8
"For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."

It looks like she has admitted that she linked from an anti-semitic site while knowing full well that it was a anti-semitic site.

Why is this garbage allowed on 2+2?

Was Jesus a radical non-white guy?

This has nothing to do with censorship--that is unless you agree with the authors of metapedia that there is some kind of Jewish conspiracy to control the media. Is that your view?

So you would rather have us believe that you are anti-Semitic than admit that you made a mistake?

I think you should meditate on this verse for your spiritual growth:

Quote:
Proverbs 16:18
Pride goes before destruction,
and a haughty spirit before a fall.

I'm still waiting for her to explain why the fact that they were Jewish means that they couldn't also be white. I'm suspecting it's because she has some pretty exacting standards as to what she believes constitutes the white race.

No. I've never spent a lot of time on Jewish conspiracy theories.

I think people want to win arguments so much they've lost touch with reality. They won't even allow free thinking or speech any more. They've got to rely on censorship to win. IOW they've become control freaks. Rather like the U.S. government these days.

I will. I think about the whole bible as the Spirit draws my attention to them.

BS. This isn't the first time you've posted about Jewish conspiracies in RGT. For someone who "hasn't spent a lot of time" on the subject, you sure seem to like bringing it up an awful lot.

When you post hateful garbage you're going to get called out on it. Stop acting like you're the victim here.

I was posting on Chomsky.

I merely echoed the encyclopedia statement that I never realized the Weathermen leadership was mainly Jewish.

You need to stop making them a protected minority on here while you take shots at Christians.

There are whole threads on here about Christian events you disapprove of and you take shots at Christians constantly and I can't mention the leader of a terrorist group was a Jew?

Okay, I'm going to lock this thread.
