The 'F' bomb carries no more weight than the words 'puppy' or 'baby' anymore.
I've met one or two Americans and never heard them swear. Some of the modern Australian teenagers swear using the f-word, but that is not Australian, it is an imported influence. Most grow out of it. Colourful language is frowned upon in Australia, well at least the parts I have lived in.

Not for me to say, but I do like to try and understand where other people are coming from and how/why they have the views they do.
I did feel that the subject of creating the fairy double might be confronting similarly to the subject of sex, which is one of the Victorian taboos. However, people do need to understand how babies are made, so it is explained to children at school. Perhaps a similar thing with how fairies are made?
Nudity, is perhaps offensive sometimes. Yet the idea of clothes is essentially a human thing. The wood-nymphs are always naked when visiting here. The older fairies wear clothes, yet that is a human adaption. There is also a link here to the transfer of knowledge, Lilith for example still keeps dropping gossamer fabrics upon me. That is her way of sharing her memories, and in the fairy world memories are knowledge. Humans write and print books as a way of sharing knowledge. The fairies simply do it organically and more efficiently.
Another bone of contention in the fairy thread is the subject of the demonisation of the fairy and other unseen Beings by religions, and in modern times psychology. One of the central themes of the fairy thread was the unjust labels of "demon" and "demonic". I wanted, and still do, to educate people. Contradicting dogma is still humanity's biggest taboo.
To understand trauma and memory, one has to understand the methods used. My understanding was obtained working with deceased children, so that is the context I use to explain it. One must understand the causes of pathology in order to treat it.
The history of human and the fairy relations in recent times is a very dark one, recent meaning the last six thousand years. It is a history of genocide and erasure, and it was not the fairy that instigated that.
In the final analysis, it is always up to the reader to accept or dismiss what was written on ATS. Which I may add was a platform for discussing conspiracies, cover-ups and hidden history. The history of religion has always been a bloody one. ATS always had its 'gate-keepers', and still does.
Quote:While much of what you've shared isn't resonating with me, a great deal is and I'm thankful for the time you've shared. Knowledge is one of my most highly treasured things in this world and if it doesn't mean much to me today I've found it can be most valuable years down the road when I've collected more pieces to the puzzle.
What do you mean by "resonating"?
Quote:If you mix critical thinking with equal parts of abstract thinking you end up with 'weirdo's' who like to talk about scary things like ghosts and fairies. As the tribe continues to expand so will the resistance from traditional thinkers who aren't comfortable with change.
Abstract? Do you mean the 6D world for example?
A tennis ball rolling on the ground has 6Ds. Length X width X height is 3 dimensions, then add inside and outside to give 5D. The sixth dimension is motion/time to give 6D. It is deceptively simple, so I can appreciate the difficulty. Physics, when it talks of "dimensions" is the abstract one, just toss physics out the window as impractical when it comes to understanding the structure of consciousness.
In the fairy thread, and in general, I try to bring the whole subject of the other world, it's inhabitants and how they interact with humans into plain language. I see no need to use occult or scientific terms. I find when people use Hindu and Buddhist terminology in sentences it has no meaning for most people, nor is understanding communicated. One needs examples, one needs to be practical, if one is to venture 'out there' and survive.
Basically, the initial form of 'little blue lights' aside, the subject of the fairy is very biological, and can be accurately explained in that way. No need for complicating things with scientific or religious jargon. Additionally, if one uses actual events for illustration, well, the reader has some context. If one wishes to understand what a so-called 'shape-shifter' actually is and how they do it, for example.
