Help of crucial knowledge is not free

There isn’t anything wrong with it, were meant to support our Clergy and our Gods above them to really make this community our spiritual home.
Exactly. That's what we need to get across.
Remember, as a life lesson, that nothing comes for free, everything requires effort and sacrifice.
Liking the post , by the way, is not a huge sacrifice, in my opinion.
 
I literally cannot believe that you are making a complaint about something that the Clergy, that works freaking HARD for us and for The Gods, asked to do. It's an easy peasy lemon squeezy like to a post, they didn't ask you to go on a battlefield and lose your life.

I am particularly upset because this is something that is in OUR interest, a lnowledge that can only be beneficial to our development. If you are not interested in advancing and doing something for the Clergy and yourself, I guess that's your problem.
 
@Disciple of the Serpent What victim mentality? I asked "Why 'like' a post if the information is so important?". What is victim mentality in that?

@Aquarius Let me know which of my posts are irrelevant - and saying "all of them" is a cop-out.

@Wotanwarrior I didn't say members participating is wrong. I thought very important information should be given, and those who appreciate it can thank. To everyone - shoot me in the back of my head for not seeing things the same way as everyone else.

@SoulSails13 Is asking "Why need to 'like' to receive information that is very important" bitching? As for everything else in this thread, I just replied.

@hailourtruegod If I'm wrong and obtuse, then OK. I could get better. I don't actually want nor intend to go against everything constantly. That is unneeded, and one individual won't make a difference in that, plus it would lead to such a burnout and alienation, which would just be stupid.

Regardless, the simple question I intended is "Why 'like' to receive very important information, if it is so important? Why not just have it?". It seems to have been answered...

I do ask questions to try and understand. With my past as christian just accepting everything easily and carelessly, I seem to have swung all the way to the opposite now, having become stubborn, even. The burden - and it does seem like that now - feels heavy. It has caused numerous problems, not just here at ToZ.

@Ayleth You're not wrong. I have taken my time when making threads before, but I have been more impatient lately, and like I just said - not just here at the ToZ.

@Soul Wings Speaking of validation - I think partly due to not being validated and receiving many 'likes' here, and when I bothered to try to post on twitter, etc., it fed into me to not bother doing it back.

@High Priestess Lydia In this sense, my thoughts must be skewed, in posting things that don't matter, which I thought do matter. In the Evil thread I did, that is also very important information, yet... there are 0. Zero. Not one 'like'. It might have been mostly before this new forum existed, but the posts are still there. I also post sometimes to upset others - in encouragement to do more Reverse-torah Rituals, in the hopes that they can use the influence to do so. I don't know if that works, though.

I thought, since it being said before, that threads can include other things, not just having to be meditation posts strictly, that it would be OK to post things. I posted about dystopian living standards; I have ideas for showing how governments don't care and giving examples, and whatever else, but since I haven't had many reaction likes so far, I probably won't for them, because it probably would be low quality and uninteresting and unwanted likewise. I don't like leaving things unfinished, so since I've had the ideas and been collecting things, I think I'll get around to them eventually.

@Amethystos I think a quick, simple answer is as I said above - being too easy to accept carelessly what I was told before. Now, the pendulum swung too far to the other side.

@the_eye_of_anubis I didn't say anything about me not being interested in advancing. Very important information needing to be liked to be received doesn't make sense to me. That's it.

At this point, me going and pressing the 'like' button on such posts would seem more like something I have to do now, rather than actually meaning it personally and truthfully. I still hardly ever do these types of reactions to posts anyway, and I'm not up-to-date with reading all posts/sermons, either.

As I have said in some posts before - this is just FancyMancy posting nonsense. Just ignore it. It doesn't matter.

This has gone to far, +40 posts in this thread for your nonsense.
You don't want to give a like? Doesn't matter, we will reach our goal without you then.

I prefer having 150 threads with 40 post per thread about thanking all the active people here, than having one for you who did nothing besides complaining.
 
May I ask why we have to kiss arse (liking a post and asking) to receive help that is very important? Did I miss something? Maybe I should start charging for people to have the password to all my (irrelevant) posts, which I should lock. It doesn't make sense.
That's crazy statement. You want something of more serious nature and you can't show a gesture that you are willing to give, to get? Even one like?

Don't do it, probably to do a ritual for God when you need a help would look for you like a climbing to Himalayan hills if you are this way.

Kiss arse? What the hell. Feeling entitled for whatever reason to get help in advancement for granted for doing nothing?

With this attitude you can go to take what is available for public for free and it will be enough for you because that's how much you are ready to deserve.
 
I mentioned ages ago this place is very religious.
“This place” is religious. We are a religion and the fact that you can’t respect that speaks more about you than “this place”.

Back in the Golden Ages religion took top priority and was a part of a healthy ethical and spiritual society.

Someone who has no religion, has nothing to stand for, is nothing.

If you think you belong here because we are an anti-religion, or we are against xianity only, you are very mistaken and here for the wrong reasons.

You have been here for years, I notice your posts, you bring zero value to this place, I don’t think you even meditate or have anything spiritual going for you. Just some ramblings about politics, xianity, and other stuff no different than an atheist. You have no wisdom.

You need to be better, you have been here for ages and wrote and read thousands of posts, this can’t be your mentality. This is not some random forum that has interesting eccentric discussions that you like as a mental hobby. This is a religion and a path and it needs to be practiced and walked upon.

On one hand you complain that nobody "likes" your posts, on the other you complain about the idea of showing support for the ministry by "liking" a post. You also pretend not to understand why it's important, but the fact that you are so hung up and sulking over your posts not getting reactions shows that you do know why it's important to show support. You say you withhold reacting to others' posts because you do not get reactions yourself. That is childish.

If you don't want to do it then don't, no need to make it into a big thing. But your mentality behind it needs to be addressed, such as your view that liking the ministry's posts is "kissing arse". At least, assuming these are truly your feelings and you aren't just being contrarian for attention and to draw arbitrary lines between yourself and others.

I have seen you post interesting things in the past and you have potential but you must be willing to allow yourself to be part of the community and not alienate yourself or others arbitrarily. You seem to have some insecurities and ego issues that give you blindspots and make it difficult for others to relate with you and for you to relate with others. I hope you take the time to meditate and perform introspection.
