If you could mold a spirit leader out of your hopes
what would he/she say? what would the beliefs be that you would be encouraged to express in your daily life?

I'm a pragmatist these days, but still have basic ideas of how we should relate to each other.

I would first request that people not watch any more commercials on tv. They all are hurtful to the spirit.

what would you have your spirit leader say to others?

1. My "spirit leader" ?
I do not fully understand I think. That it is a personification of our inner spirit?

I do not think anyone wants that dog off it's leash...

However, I am essentially in favor of supporting the Constitution as it is written. That we are entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Without a bunch of other crap shoved down our throats. We should all be chilled out and live and let live.

3. Heh...
because my inner spirit is very very evil.

There is a remarkably good chance that he would want to kill all humans on Earth, just to make things nice for the good people.

See.. if he arbitrarily decides who is "good" and who is "bad", invariably some good people will lose people they love, or they will be apalled at all the others who died, so they would suffer unduley. So he would end it for everyone and let nature have back her precious Earth.

That's pretty messsed up of him, I know. Believe me I have to listen to him drone on about all night...

So I have to walk the line, trying to do what little good I can while surviving. :shrug:

5. I try that...
I ask him to be quiet a lot..


He has been very quiet for the last week or so though.

Maybe he has gone away.

9. I think you may have reclaimed his voice
Naming it takes its power away.

Plus, the mind-coder has been helping you unwrite that programming. Pretty soon, you'll be sane!

6. I think he means "ideal leader"
But again, nobody wants that dog off-leash either.
