Warning. This might change your whole idea of who the “Father of Psychology” really was.

We encounter psychology in our lives mainly through dysfunction. That is, people generally go to see psychologists…
Rabab is a psychology major and she isn’t married. I am accepting marriage bids on her behalf.
I was resting in bed around 10:30 AM. I had arisen at 06:30, ate breakfast, and performed a few communication and organization chores using my personal computer.
As happens more often in the last few years, I need to take a brief rest from the many tasks I continue to assign to myself…

It’s only a month on, and the election of Emmanuel Macron is still being celebrated in France and around Europe. Le Front National have been repelled again. There’s a new beacon of hope for liberalism; an indication…
The Outsider: July 2005
“Look, if we are both single by 30, we’ll just marry each other, okay?” When you are 17 and your best friend makes such a romantic, unconditional pact with you, with a nonchalant, careless voice, you certainly feel the fear of…
Human beings, like all creatures, are designed for action. If they have talent, opportunity and desire they become architects, doctors, scientists carpenters, plumbers or musicians etc. It doesn’t much matter precisely what one does as long as there is some major elements of…
Elegant. Thanks.
A few thoughts…
I think that due to the imprecision of language, the lack of a specific way to convey certain things due to the failure of words a a device of true understanding, the seriousness and experience of psychotic depression is lost on many people…
Why don’t you come to my house and tell me that.
A good spark of interaction Jon.
The brilliant spark of the whole person is interactive with the world and beyond. We all make a difference and have equal value. We are never alone in this design of life. We have to go through it to know it, to learn and believe it. Participation is required.

well, this in a different level of “Demon” but yes, I did face it down!
In 1987, on a mountain side doing a Spiritual retreat by MYSELF, not one of those fad things …. I was given Revelations 2:17.
Now 1st off, you can only get that “spiritual object” by standing on the Spiritual Realm with the…
It is interesting the way history records someone’s life. Jesus’s stepfather, Zebedee, was a successful designer and builder of ships. Yet, some people believe that Jesus was a poor carpenter.
I am in no way comparing Nixon nor Trump to Jesus. I am merely pointing out that people will pick and choose what attributes they…
Rant on Social Media
Yet another blast in London, UK. The world freezes for a few moments, media goes into a tizzy and in pubs and homes round the world, experts spew out strategies to eradicate terrorism, yet they cant control the two year old…
Everywhere you look, our society is lying about the most common subjects in our lives:
Failing, but being OK with that.
Humans are born winners. We started naked, gathering fruits and now we rule the world. There was a part in our DNA that…
Like so many other people in the United States and abroad, I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder. It took many years of reinforcing the fear before it grew into its more hostile cousin, panic disorder, but even before that unfortunate turn anxiety beat me constantly.
When poison is delivered gradually over a long time, like the poisons in cigarettes for example, the effects are not noticed until the end when the lungs and arteries are consumed. Same has been, and continues to be, in society. I think Orwell get it spot on, only how this current reality has manifested has been quite insidious. We are living like…

One word to describe what wearing swimwear feels like to me.
— Materialism? — Here. — Cognitivistics? — Here I am. — Speculative realism? — Yes, here, here. — Free will? — Absent…
Everyone has their wants and desires. Not everyone comes from the same background wanting the same things. Often individual clarity is found through diversity. I judge nobody for their beliefs. I’m sure in time everyone finds their groups of likemindedness. One of my favorite quotes:
Passing judgment is harmful because that…

Psychiatrist Thomas Szasz labeled psychiatric coercion as medicalized terrorism.
Read books that psychiatrist Thomas Szasz wrote. Read his book Psychiatric Slavery or read his book Suicide Prohibition: The Shame of Medicine. Thomas Szasz…
I follow the argument, but is it ‘good’ to accept just any new idea? There must a ‘quality’ threshold, particularly in an evolutionary system!
So, I think there is a ‘matching function’ for new ideas that match better or worse than other, competing old and new ideas and the space for (new) ideas is more limited in…
X and Y reproduce (preserve) a circle.
