Why you should appreciate religion: Everything is a ritual. Prayer is a ritual, communion is a ritual but so is singing a ritual too, as is walking to school every morning. Driving to work, there’s another ritual you never fail to perform…there’s nothing you do that is not a ritual, not even shitting into porcelain bowl every morning. Even going unconscious every night and sleeping is a ritual. Religion is the only one that doesn’t pretend to be something else and generally speaking its pretty benign and harmless. And please don’t tell me violence pretending to be religion, is religion, it’s not I’m referring to genuine religion which is the ritual of communing with God.

It's 2 am. You hear a knock at the front door. You look at your Ring camera. There is a 4 foot tall alien standing there. What do you do?

@PinoAmericano The same reason you don’t have significant conversations with chimpanzees or houseplants.

I’m watching all of these UFO videos, and I think it’s obvious that they are here and they have always been here. I think the real question is why haven’t they made any significant contact with us?

All of the ops against Trump are from the left, globalists, and our enemies abroad. They are trying to divide us to attack Trump because they can't defeat him any other way. Assassinations didn't work. Lawfare didn't work. Cheating didn't work. Keep the faith, patriots.

Seattle has one of the worst housing crises in the country. I see it every time I’m home in my district. People working full-time jobs who can’t afford rent. Teachers, nurses, and transit workers who can’t live in the city they serve. Families on housing assistance waiting lists that have been frozen for years. This is a policy failure, not an inevitability. We built this crisis by choosing developers over people. We can choose differently. Housing is a human right. We fight for it like one.

You would also have to be able to physically age and de-age, at will or at least appear to. The obvious play is after this mission, stage your own death, presumably on Mars, go into hiding while you grow young again, maybe get some plastic surgery, and some weight lifting equipment and some extra hormones and sequester yourself on a tropical island or something back on Earth, and get jacked and young again, and super strong because you got 40 years of professional super science based training. You re-emerge back into society as a tan shredded super genius with 5 times the strength of a normal person who steps back in to society to thwart impending global slavery, again appearing to start over from scratch, while also completing some crazy side quest to expedite the technological evolution of the species. If I were a 5,000 year old alien that might be what I’d do.

The famous 20th century psychiatrist and scholar C.G. Jung’s most famous contribution to the field was introducing the idea of the collective subconscious, a step further than his mentor and predecessor Sigmunf Freud, who postulated the idea of the individual subconscious. Jung proposed an underlying unity beneath the apparent separation of individual minds, and he coined the term “synchronicity”, which he defined it thus: A confluence of events with deep personal significance and a statistical likelihood so low it may as well be impossible. So to answer your question, it can be quite easily, and unsurprisingly if you invert your baseline assumption that we are separate beings with separated private minds which are disconnected from each other.
