Brother, maybe others have gone through enough in their lives, or they have observed it in others that - when, people are young and enthusiastic and approach serious matters in a very impulsive manner, they can make substantial mistakes.
So, if someone gives advice based on that, or comments on A1's situation, which he himself posted on a public board, why would you call their thinking STS. What if they genuinely wanted A1 to do a bit of introspection, about the impulsive way he approaches spiritual interactions, and then very casually shares them on a public board, which in turn can influence other young impressionable minds. Have you seen his other thread about possession, fearlessness, love from the universe etc? Or, his past thread about impulsive conclusions about negative densities and such. What if a new spiritual seeker was to be affected by his opinions, his quick conclusions?
Which is absolutely fine. That is the point of free will, free choices. No one is stopping A1. No one should demean him for the sake of love. But, you cannot say that others commenting on his impulsive opinions with their advice, or love-based-sarcasm are doing STS thinking.
Even if they were, would your love, compassion filled approach not let them do it? This whole attitude that all should be love-love-love, and if it is not, I am going home with my ball, and not gonna let anything else be discussed is basically trying to control the flow of thought in others. Just love-love-love at the cost of wisdom can restrict many others' paths.
For example, I personally believe that couple years back (I just found this forum last year, but I have gone back and read past threads), so couple years back Unity100 used to post here regularly. And, he provided invaluable discussions on topics, which most spiritual love-love-love people would not dare touch. Basically, in his own unique manner, he provided wisdom. His tone may not have been appreciated by some, but he never tried to shut others up, just presented his own opinions. yet many of his threads had multiple responses, where other spiritually advanced people simply didn't like him discussing challenging topics, and his ideas that even higher densities can make substantial mistakes, and third density has to suffer. Slowly, the love-filled basically drove him off, cause they did not like the idea of challenges, questions.
I saw this throughout my growing up in India. Corrupt people did their natural stuff, and created a poverty, suffering filled environment in many places, which was not allowed to be challenged properly, mainly because of lots of blind spiritual adherence to just talking about nice things, and not calling out others' corruption and mistakes. Which created a very docile society with lots of suffering and being controlled by very selfish people on the top. Love was used to crush wisdom. I can go deeper, but very few people outside India really understand it. For most its just Gandhi, Yoga and the stark poverty-porn. But basically, spirituality in many parts has simply turned into blind worship of higher powers based on just love-No-challenges-No-questions, and many individuals messing with occult stuff without proper understanding.
Basically, brother, please let others have their say. If their benevolent sarcasm, playful advice seems mean to you, let them be. They have got their freedom to explore in wisdom, and to give advice to a young person like A1 as they see fit. Maybe their words have little sarcasm, but they mean to genuinely comment upon A1's many musings, which he himself puts on a public forum.
Forget about A1, just take some random guy SpiritualExplorer007. Assume SE007 has recently found Ra's writings, and likes the ideas of channeling and becoming a spiritual expert. SE7 tried to learn a lot in a short duration, and during an intense moment in his mind, he decides he is suffering from severe pain deep in his soul, which is a pain of 1000s of lives. Now if someone on a
public board advises him to take it easy, and dwell more on basic understandings, rather then rushing to be an expert, why should that advice not be allowed and referred to as STS, even if it includes sarcasm? Would you want to just offer love-love-love, and see it as good situation that SE007 now believes he has got more pain than millions of entities in third world and prisons, and then make fast-food style impulsive conclusions about it, especially when SE007 is messing with channeling? Wouldn't others also have the right to express their opinions on SE007's musings, so they may not distort thinking of new users on these forum.
All my life, I have not given a flying **** about occult and stuff, but I remember, when I first visited this forum after reading Ra, and I read one of A1's many threads, which created a little apprehension in my mind, cause I am new to all this higher density stuff. Lots of that stuff just did not seem right. With time, I read others' posts, and more of Ra material, and got a better understanding. But, I concluded that young people posting impulsive opinions about serious channeling, occult, spiritual stuff should be criticized, so there is balance in information, and it may actually help that young person ground himself more. I have been to other forums, where people, who seem to be good, kind souls, and they throw out spiritual advice like free pancakes, and many others may get influenced, if there is not criticism and sarcasm to counter the one-dimensional thought flow.
Sorry about the length of this post. I post very rarely on forums. I personally find the whole focus on just love based musings and nothing else very suffocating. It leads to lots of empty platitudes, spiritual circle-jerk, and very little of value in practical advice. This third density maybe primarily about love, but things can be very, very harsh for unlucky souls, and a bit of criticism, questioning, challenging would definitely help the third density social thought process. This is not directed at A1. As long as he is a loving and kind should, all my love for him. This is about the general throttling of critical analysis by those, who think they are the love experts, and know how all can be solved by love alone. Maybe from infinite creator's perspective, but not from our limited societies and lives in third density. I would never dare to reduce the love filled voices. Cause deep down I love people, who are kind, compassionate, and love is the basis of my desire to exist in this infinite creation, and find my own little path. But, then those professing to be love filled should have enough patience to let others express themselves through critical analysis, questions, or even the terrifying sarcasm on a
public board.
You may have learned from your life that love, compassion are the best. Others may have learned through harsher conditions that a bit of wisdom is necessary too. Their expression is essential to the beauty fo this creation too. Even if they challenge Yahweh, Guardians, higher densities etc. Or, even if they advise someone to be more modest, and thoughtful before they present their impulsive conclusions in multiple threads.

Brother, there are infinite worlds beyond yours, and in many a bit of vinegar helps too. Infact, I think the beautiful lesson of love is just not about your liking of honey, but others liking of a little extra vinegar in their advice, in their critical analysis. An individual cannot dictate the recipe in a situation involving other-selves too, but the circumstances of the situation. And other people's perspectives of that situation, even if it involves a bit of sarcasm and criticism. If their criticism is wrong, counter it with your wisdom+compassion. Btw, sarcasm in this thread was 0.2 on a 1 to 10 scale based on normal human discussions.
This existence gives every soul full right of expression, and there is a reason that wisdom is considered as important as love in this long spiritual path. You may wanna ignore wisdom, your choice, but others have full right to wisdom based exploring, even if it leads to questioning higher densities' decisions, or throwing a bit of sarcasm here and there. No wonder, so many love obsessed New Age groups just end up being authoritarian, with love-experts leading others like nursery school children.
For any unlucky soul, who read this long post, I apologize for the rambling. But then, I have noticed, in general posters here do ramble, which is beautiful cause atleast most of them seem to be genuinely kind inspite of differing opinions. A bit of zing int he arguments helps. Posters like Unity100 help. Existence itself may go for a bit of zing here and there. look at this heavy veil. Someone, somewhere wants it not just for our free will to chose, but for extra experience to the creator. Existence's zing. The zing that has led to destruction of Maldek, ruining of Mars, and a very uninspiring status quo on Earth. creator appreciates zing, inspite of its infinite love. Look at the STS that has arisen in this same creator's playground. Look how much zing are they adding to life.
I actually worry about future Earths in other galaxies, who are gonna be governed by higher beings, who have got abundant love, but an approach to wisdom that leads to millions suffering torture of the most horrible kind, with spiritual experts healing everything in third density with honey, while STS comprehensively rules third density lives. I just hope, I am in a really high density, maybe post mid-sixth, so i can look back, enjoy the zing, and finally believe in "All is well".
Btw, I am well aware that the kinda thought process that I used in above post is not going to be of much interest to many, who suspect they are high density wanderers and just focusing on love. Which is totally fare. Everyone has got their unique path, and if someone wants to just focus on love, totally beautiful. But, others have the right to express too.
The above post was not directed at A1. Just my general musings on how I see many on this forum approach ideas, which involve criticism and questions, just because some are trying to figure out, why is there so much random pain, inspite of us being helped by billions upon billions of higher density beings. I'd rather have higher densities using wisdom alongwith love. I'd rather they listen to our experience on the ground here, understand our perspective, from the third density's dirt and mud, and then make their decisions. Cause, you bet they make lots and lots of decisions that dictate our lives here.
Creator has given me the full, infinite right to question situations, people around me, and the infinite creator itself. And, if I am right about my very limited understanding of the infinite creator, then the creator itself wants us to question. Creator itself has made vinegar, wisdom, STS and so on. The infinite creator wants us to question as much as we want, challenge as much as we want. Our path's structure is pre-defined by the creator (the narrow path, densities and so on), but our expression is not. Creator wants you to express yourself, and learn the deep value of love combined with wisdom. So, let us not use love to suffocate others' expression and wisdom.
