Re: Cyberpathology

Thank you Jerry for your thoughts.  I symphatise with them and
you.

Just to mention, that there is a time-lapse, which is also a
considerable difference, and also that here is going on many
conversations at the same time, this, if we compare
cyber-conversation with real conversation.

I have found that, in addition to new ideas that I receive now
and then, e-mail postlist is a good place to get feedback to my
ideas / theories.  Just think, if I have a thought and I want to
get 100 , specialist to talk about it, it would require a larger
auditorium and at least a month for organizing it, not to mention
that some of these persons might be living abroad.  E-mail lists
are virtual aditoriums not depended of time and place.

Steiner folks, antroposophists, talk about Ahrimanism, if I have
understood correctly, it means that spiritual matters are drawn
into matter and mechanizing things.  Computers seem to have a
record in this; people work through machines, communicate,
experience, relax, now even most of used to be brain-functions
have manged to move in computers - namely thinking, computers
make decisions, etc.  etc...

It seems, that first God created Man as His Image and now man has
created computer as his image.  This is not matter of good or
bad, just a fact.  But sad is, by my view, that some people get
so deep hooked on computers, without first learning to manage by
themselves, that it might take lots of incarnations to learn the
other side.  But I also think that we have created this situation
by ourselves and knowingly, so this phase is obviously needed.

How much deeper we can evolve into matter?

   Peace.
