Little Acts Of Kindness

[Dirk]

Well, I was in Edinburgh on Saturday. I was waiting 2 hours at the station, between trains. Anyway, a Jew gave way for an Arab Muslim family onto a train.

It's little, relatively meaningless acts of individual kindness that will overcome sectarianism.

I don't usually notice these things, I only thought about it afterwards. The reason I did, was because I was the Jew.

Did you get on the train at all, or did you give up a seat and stand?

I would have selfishly barged onto the train. Your act is probably an act of self-betrayal and motivated by guilt and personal inferiority. This guilt is likely to be suppressed and/or denied. I cannot fathom doing such a thing.

I notice you cannot help and mention the family unit derangement. The Truth is that these were several individual human beings, and their perceived and dictated position in any illegitimate societal decree should be irrelevant.

I also notice that you mention the specific races/creeds of the parties involved. Well, again they are just human beings. The race of the humans should have no bearing on your decision making process, and to mention such seems to reek of your own self considering racist elements to be important.

Incorrect. It was a an act that is most likely motivated by other factors. Virtually all acts of "kindness" are motivated by guilt, selfishness, denial, personality faults and so on.

I notice the trend that you have to try and modestly minimize things. Modesty is not a positive trait, in fact it is inferior.

I don't usually notice these things, I only thought about it afterwards. The reason I did, was because I was the Jew.

This shows Me the inferior way you creatures handle yourselves. You should have thought about it before making any such decision, not after.

I just let them get on first.

I would have selfishly barged onto the train. Your act is probably an act of self-betrayal and motivated by guilt and personal inferiority. This guilt is likely to be suppressed and/or denied. I cannot fathom doing such a thing.

Nah, they were just in more of a hurry than me.

I notice you cannot help and mention the family unit derangement. The Truth is that these were several individual human beings, and their perceived and dictated position in any illegitimate societal decree should be irrelevant.

Why bother listing them? They were together.

I also notice that you mention the specific races/creeds of the parties involved. Well, again they are just human beings. The race of the humans should have no bearing on your decision making process, and to mention such seems to reek of your own self considering racist elements to be important.

It had no bearing on my decision-making process. I only realised afterward. And the reason i noticed was because this divide has always been an undercurrent of my life.

It was mainly the symbolism i was commenting on. In regards to your point, maybe guilt in that i didn't want to get in their way.

That's because good big things don't happen very often. Haha.

This shows Me the inferior way you creatures handle yourselves. You should have thought about it before making any such decision, not after.

Why? I don't really notice peoples' racial heritages, i don't find it important. It's just interesting to think about, looking back. Well, interesting so far as i'm concerned, anyway.

You may be right, but I don't think you are. So every time I am kind to someone it's for something other than trying to be nice. Rediculous

Your not one of us "creatures"?


Anyway, I think an individuals acts of kindness won't change the world, but if everybody did it, maybe it would be a better place to live. I'll continue to do what I think is the kind/right way to do things. That's the way I want to be treated and I would ask somebody to do something I wasn't willing to do myself.

Don't bother using logic with Truman, he thinks civilized life is fake, never mind that we and most other life forms evolved as social creatures. And you'll have an even harder time getting him to realize he's human. :giggle:

Truth is not ridiculous. Of course there is a reason and motivation behind your behaviour - that is how psychoanalysis works.

To say that you are "kind" is because you are being "nice" is simply circular justification and logically fallacious.

Kind and nice are interchangeable and the same thing in that use. You answer is ridiculous, not Mine. And it is wrong.

I am a human being, but I am not a Truth-hating, broken citizen-slave.

Quote: Anyway, I think an individuals acts of kindness won't change the world, but if everybody did it, maybe it would be a better place to live.
Again, circular, but this time you contradict yourself. The world can't be made better without change.

The requirement for making the world better to live in would be simply for humans to embrace and recognize Truth. However, this is impossible in real life because you citizen-slaves are hopelessly broken.

Unwise, but do what you will. Those who treat others kindly are more often targeted as poison containers.

Your above position does not represent Truth. There is no universal "right" way to treat others.

 

[Seer Travis Truman]

Don't bother using logic with Truman,

I am always perfectly logical and rational, unlike you.

he thinks civilized life is fake,

All human societies on earth are a total genocidally deranged and utterly perverse and immoral disease. Society does not represent Truth, nature, logic, reason or sanity.

never mind that we and most other life forms evolved as social creatures.

I never suggested that humans are not social creatures, nor being social is unnatural. However, being a social creature in no way challenges or changes any of the Forbidden Truths I reveal.

And you'll have an even harder time getting him to realize he's human. :giggle:

I have always clearly stated I am a human species. Strawman. That is all you have?

Acts of meanness always spread, don't they. What's stopping acts of kindness from spreading around as well?

I really think it's a shame that people in general are getting less and less kind. Hopefully, we can really change that.

Really? Because I don't see civilians getting indiscriminately killed in war (Israel/Palestine and Dafar excluded obviously), tyrannical gov'ts being the status quo, rape being condoned, ect. We humans have gotten soft, so much so that any example of 'meanness' is taken to be reactionary rather then the old was simply not being completely eradicated.

 

[Seer Travis Truman]

Really? Because I don't see

That is because you are blind to Truth.

civilians getting indiscriminately killed in war (Israel/Palestine and Dafar excluded obviously),

The Truth is that war is a mass-murder event. Citizen-slaves are being murdered every day, regardless of the lie-based labels they are given such as "soldier" and "civilian". All wars do take so-called "civilian" casualties, but that label does not matter.

tyrannical gov'ts being the status quo,

All societies are utterly fascist and tyrannical, some to the point that individual citizen-slaves are blind to the brutal oppression they suffer due to denial.

rape being condoned, ect.

Society generates most rape-acts via its societal policies.

We humans have gotten soft, so much so that any example of 'meanness' is taken to be reactionary rather then the old was simply not being completely eradicated.

No, the "Old" is not being eradicated. In fact, human failure, derangement, violence etc is increasing. You wrongly equate meanness with nature, where the Truth is that genocide and sadistic cruelty are a product of society that only exist in the human societal realm.

After working at a McDonald's, you should have seen what some of the customers were doing. What's worse in Canada is Tim Hortons customers.

I did. They pigged out on too much food, made a mess of things and occasionally complained about the food (What did they expect, it was McDonald's!), so I'm not quite sure what your point is.

No. They demanded for refunds of orders they made up and complained at our managers and held up lines until they actually scammed us. There were times were they would complain at us for the sake of taking advantage of us. It's disgusting what happens these days.

I didn't have to deal with that but then the other businesses around me were easer/more profitable to scam.

It is not the case of religion there it was basically Humanity. I think now a days media has played an important role in changing people's perception about different religions.

Little acts of kindness are always remembered with gratitude by the humanity in general. How many times they are retold even after generations?

kindness is always big.. little or huge.. kindness is a sign of humanity.. you noticed it becuase you did it yourself.. each day alot of people do the things which are kind and notice-able but you dont give a thought to them, cause you dont do them.. open your eyes and look around.. you will find many inspirations.

I don't think we should be separated like this. I have absolutely no problem with anyone, whether they're any other color, religion or sex orientation. We're all HUMANS so our acts should be kind to anyone. I should do something nice for a darker colored person, for a gay person or for a muslim too. Who cares who's what? We're HUMANS.

If only everyone felt that way. If politics is any indication we are far from it around the world.
