Less than a month

[zenmaster]

I don't think real or imaginary is as important as what 'good' you get out of holding the belief that you're going to be harvested within a month. And then, what good does this do when this belief is shared?

Is it important as to whether it increases or decreases distortion when shared?

Is there actually anything more important? Some distortions are obviously burdensome on society, pushing society backwards - because they are rejected, or disowned, aspects of self projected outwards (as allegory) for others to 'fix'.

Here's an example: the championing of ridiculous ideas such as "NASA covers most of their findings up" - all for the satisfaction of the weak ego. And so you do things like vote for leadership, efforts and expenses, which will also champion such ridiculous ideas. Meanwhile this calumniation serves to suppress real, genuine efforts of others - real people working in earnest - to learn and to teach. Ironically, the conspiracy purveyor is the one who is suppressing social progress.
