A viewer asks: “Rational Thought is the one aspect of consciousness widely held to separate predominantly intelligent species from predominantly instinctual ones. Is it safe to say that rational thought is actually a creative thought process engaged in novel problem solving (novel for the being doing the problem solving) versus conditioned response (via instinct or behavioral modification perhaps)? The former is viewed as a predominately conscious, self-aware activity, while the latter is viewed as a predominantly unconscious activity lacking or at least not requiring self-awareness. How would Creator characterize this distinction in consciousness? What are we missing?”

A viewer asks: “Observing humanity, a large spectrum is on display. From people who seem to operate mostly from conditioned responses, to those who truly seem to actively analyze everything around them consciously, enabling them to respond in novel unconventional ways that can be unpredictable and surprisingly effective (at least from the perspective of others). Emerson said, “foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.” Those who operate largely out of conditioning will struggle to find novel solutions to unanticipated and vexing problems, and rather, will keep applying the same conditioned response over and over again in spite of its continued failure or poor performance. With this postulate, how does Creator explain the difference in these two approaches to problem solving?”

A viewer asks: “Rational thought appears to have a lot of enemies or potential obstacles or impairments to overcome. Karmic energy is clearly one of them. (As recognized in Creator’s recent revelation that “karma” was the cause of my complacency and feelings of futility when failing to act on my raccoon problem in a timely and rational fashion.) Fear of failure, and harsh judgment, and penalties is clearly another obstacle (which can all be heightened by karma created from past failures – including past life failures). Strong negative belief is yet another potential barrier (which also can be reinforced by karma). Then there are the physical, energetic barriers: fatigue, poor cognitive memory, lack of spatial discernment, dyslexia, etc. Rational thought has a LOT to overcome. Can Creator comment on why the deck is so stacked?”

A viewer asks: “While consciousness in the light has fewer barriers to rational thought, there must be some, otherwise, how could there ever have been fallen angels? Even though emotion is likely more balanced in the light because there are no “secrets,” and therefore fewer opportunities for misunderstandings, nevertheless, if a being decides that it does not “care” what fellow beings think and feel—all the while knowing of their consternation and disapproval, is that the beginning of their fall? Becoming a disease of the conscience? Where one continues to provoke suffering in others while having full knowledge and discernment of the suffering being caused, yet not caring? Did fallen angels discover through trial and error early on that being troublemakers was FUN. Can Creator comment on this problematic linkage between depravity, bullying and fun? Is the feeling of fun or deep satisfying pleasure partially a byproduct of life energy absorption stolen from the victims? And is an addiction to this rush of pleasure the principal fuel of the fall from the divine realm?”

A viewer asks: “Another barrier to rational thought I would characterize as “entitlement belief” regardless of its genesis, and “expectation and anticipation equity.” Having just done a sports show, this is conveniently illustrated by the fan experience. Fans are not direct stakeholders in a sports franchise. They don’t own the team, the intellectual property, trademarks, the stadium, or anything of a tangible nature. They even have to PAY to consume the product, buy tickets, pay for parking, or suffer through commercials on television when watching a sports event. Yet, fans everywhere feel ENTITLED. They feel the team “owes” them something in exchange for the INVESTMENT the fan has made with them. And the more time the fan has spent being a fan for a particular team, the MORE they feel they are owed.”

A viewer asks: “This same dynamic of belonging would seem to apply to a lot of entitlement beliefs fostered by other human relationships. For example, two people agree to a business partnership to be shared “50/50.” The rational expectation is that both will be 50% responsible for making the business successful. But the reality is often that one partner will do the lion’s share, and even worse, have to actually compensate for the lack of action or even deleterious actions on the part of the other partner. Succeeding in SPITE of the other partner in fact. Yet, that deadweight partner by mere dint of the original agreement and being part of the enterprise in their head, will feel entitled to HALF, in spite of the fact they contributed nothing or next to nothing to the success of the operation, and may even be a detriment to it. We see this same dynamic often when a parent dies. A friend of mine was forced to liquidate the family sign business even though he ran it with his father for decades, was promised it in fact, but because there was a flaw in the will, the sister got half when he died, and immediately ordered its liquidation. She knew the business was promised to her brother but felt entitled to it nevertheless. Can Creator comment? Where does this unearned-yet-expected entitlement notion, which seems to be a major foundation of the evil mind, have its origin, and how is it best overcome?”

A viewer asks: “Is having karmic debt where this feeling of entitlement actually stems from in most cases, which appears unearned and inequitable? The entitlement is actually real, and earned, but was done so in a past life and denied, and so, therefore, is still owed and the debt consciousness actually manifests as actual expectation and entitlement emotion in people— towards people and things that outwardly appear to have no actual connection?”

A viewer asks: “How much is the physical brain needed for true rational thought. We know that while being stuck in limbo the capacity to think rationally is GREATLY impaired. How much does the amount of life force energy available contribute to or impede rational thinking?”

A viewer asks: “Of course, many will equate rational thinking with atheism – which is frankly irrational and a refusal or inability to weigh and factor ALL the evidence for the existence of the divine that becomes self-evident for those who successfully partner with it. How much of atheism is actually attributable to the fear of being punitively judged by a harsh and cruel divinity?”

A viewer asks: “We observe how difficult withdrawal from addiction can be for humans. Depravity is a true form of addiction. Can Creator share with us how truly difficult withdrawal from depravity is for fallen angelics in rehabilitation, and what the recidivism rate is?”
