What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control207 views0 answers0 votesThe HBO special “Life Afterlife” was another story, however. Dr. Schwartz wrote: “HBO had made a beautiful, inspiring show. But the science was sandwiched in the middle and lost nearly all its impact. We had expected that the show would leave the audience feeling ‘Science can be brought to bear on these issues,’ and ‘Wow, those mediums were tested by science and actually were found to be doing what they claimed.’ Instead, the show was good entertainment but little more. We had thought HBO really cared about the science, but discovered what the producers most wanted was to see how many people were crying when the lights went up. After all, HBO didn’t really care about making a scientific statement.” In fact, HBO had given almost as much air time to skeptics, as they did Dr. Schwartz’s experiments. The producers apparently believed they were being “professional and fair” giving equal time to skeptics and therefore creating a “balanced” presentation. But in this case, it seems a “balanced” presentation is simply sinister. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control220 views0 answers0 votesDuring the experiments, at one point Dr. Schwartz’s own mother was trying to come through and was overpowering the other dead people who were scheduled to make an appearance. This seemed to convey how little actual “control” the medium had over the channels of communication. It seemed the dead were more successful at establishing and controlling the boundaries of communication than the medium himself. Is this one of the reasons why divine partnership is so critical when one works with non-local consciousness?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control225 views0 answers0 votesAlso, during the experiments, there were a few occasions where one medium or another simply could not communicate with the dead people associated with a particular sitter. They simply got “nothing” the way most people would. Yet, a different medium would have no trouble with that sitter at all. It was summed up as the particular medium simply “wasn’t right” for that particular sitter. Yet that medium would have profound success with other sitters. Can Creator explain why this “all or nothing” anomaly occurred?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control210 views0 answers0 votesOne thing notably absent from the experiments was the entire notion of reincarnation. Nor was there any distinction made, or awareness of different states or conditions the dead might be communicating from. We know that one of three who die end up in limbo. Yet all the dead communicating appeared to be doing so from the same “place.” What was the reality of the dead in that set of experiments? Were all in the light? If so, were rescues performed for some prior to the experiments, and if so, by whom? Did the experiment itself act as a kind of “rescue entreaty” that enabled the divine to step in and “set the table” ahead of time? Or, indeed, were some in the light and some in limbo, even though there was no indication of such status during the experiments? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control225 views0 answers0 votesThe question of corruption is a compelling one. The mediumship on display and being tested in the experiments was “garden variety” in the sense it was focused on family and personal relationship issues more than anything, and therefore presumably of little interest to the interlopers. However, if the experiment had attempted to explore more expansive issues, such as GetWisdom explores, would extraterrestrial psychics have “jumped in” and taken over the channel much like Dr. Schwartz’s own mother did?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control225 views0 answers0 votesDr. Schwartz wrote about what he called “skeptomania” and “voodoo skepticism.” He wrote, “It’s one thing to be skeptical – open to alternative hypotheses. It’s another to be devoutly skeptical – always ‘knowing’ that cheating, lying, fraud, and deception are the explanations for any not-yet-explainable phenomena.” Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help reduce the ranks of the “devoutly skeptical?”ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control202 views0 answers0 votesIn addition to prayer work and the Lightworker Healing Protocol, what other practical advice can Creator share for people who find themselves entangled with a psychopath? What if the psychopath is a parent, or a sibling, or even a child?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs235 views0 answers0 votesHintjens posits the idea that society has developed ‘psychopath detectors.’ One of the principal ones is humor. Hintjens writes that we instinctually trust people who make us laugh. “It’s not enough to just laugh, either. Both parties must laugh at the right moment, not too soon, not too late. The laugh must last long enough. It must not be too loud, nor too soft. A good joke makes both the teller and the listener happy. A failed joke disturbs and irritates us.” He further writes, “What we have evolved with humor is an empathy detector. If the listener has no empathy, they are baffled. A psychopath cannot laugh ‘right.’ He does not laugh, or he laughs too much, or too long. We are more wary of people who laugh too much, than of those who don’t laugh at all. What is he hiding, we wonder?” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs224 views0 answers0 votesHintjens writes about art: “Art serves no functional purpose except to stir emotions in the viewer.” He further writes, “Psychopaths have many curious traits. One is their lack of interest in creative acts. They do not draw, paint, sculpt, or carve. They do not take photographs, except of themselves and their possessions. They do not cook for pleasure, invent recipes, nor make their own bread as a hobby. They do not create music, though they can be excellent performers of others’ work. This lack of creative drive is a curious thing when you first see it. It matches their generally empty sense of humor. Their hobbies are travel, shopping, eating out, meeting new people. This is consumption, not creation.” Hintjens says, “I’m certain creativity is another secret language of empathy.” And as such, another effective psychopath detector. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs228 views0 answers0 votesHintjens suggests that we have an incomplete view of the psychopath. The general assumption is that they are broken people, but he suggests that they are in fact human predators. “Psychopaths hunt other humans. They attack and capture them. They feed on their time, resources, power, and energy. They dispose of the remains. And they move on. Every relationship between a social human and a psychopath follows the same pattern. There seem to be no exceptions, no nice psychopaths. To be a psychopath is to be a predator.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs204 views0 answers0 votesHintjens wrote that arranged marriages evolved from the need to safeguard against predators entering the family. He writes, “The rate of arranged marriages will correlate with social status of the pair. The higher their status, the less free choice in marriage. This seems true in all societies. Between societies, the weaker the state, the higher will be the rate of arranged marriages. This is because weak states cannot protect a family’s wealth from predators.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs217 views0 answers0 votesHintjens speculates that psychopaths have only one true fear, and that is of being unmasked and exposed. He suggests this is why they can never accept responsibility. “If a psychopath gets caught, he always denies the facts, and blames someone else. It may be the victim. It may be other bystanders. He denies responsibility even when confronted with material evidence. There will be no remorse, no attempts to make it right, no apologies.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs221 views0 answers0 votesHintjens suggests that “The psychopath lies to confuse, manipulate, and hide. She does not seek truth, only control. Her mind constructs magical theories in a heartbeat. She describes them with complete sincerity.” What is Creator’s perspective on the psychopath’s liberal use of lies?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs224 views0 answers0 votesHintjens speculates that psychopathy is not a disorder, but a maladaptation. No one becomes a psychopath just through trauma, which is the idea the psychopath is simply a broken person. Rather, it is always about survival. Hintjens doesn’t think you can be a little bit psychopathic. Whether you play the social game, or the cheater game, you must play to win. The psychopath is competing with other psychopaths, and with their victims. Is psychopathy a predatory skill set? And does this explain why psychopaths have no genuinely close and intimate social and personal relationships?
