It's good to know that, as they say, "we can disagree w/o being disagreeable" and there's no hard feelings. I'm not a pure academic and had about a 15 year honeymoon with the Ra Material that you guys speak of by delving into everything New Age.
But I've gone into a combination of esoteric & academic research since I think it may benefit the early 4D period here. I think that various types of 3D/4D people with academic University backgrounds may also benefit.
That's covered somewhat in New Age Research and New Era Development

The ideal from that thread is to have a University style of education which welcomes diverse viewpoints -- the purpose and meaning of "University" -- and something the Confederation would encourage since they are a diverse coalition of 53 planetary societies.
I do disagree with Gary's word play perspective which, as he says, is coming from a limited viewpoint which I do agree. We all have limited viewpoints and styles of thinking and believing and Gary is right to admit this.
I definitely don't think there is word play going on in Ra's Fundamental Postulates. It's about conceptual clarification and consistency and I'm open to questions and critique from those who want to post in that thread.

But if there's no responses that's fine. New visitors who relate to the diversity of the Confederation may someday take interest and participate.
This is still great place to share ideas ie the new thread:
A Person's Ethical Focus, Range and Volatility

This came to me partly as I was thinking of what the OP student Julie is going to ask and contribute from her background in Psychology and her focus of Ethics in Philosophy. It also came b/c it is what I see as an overdue re-evaluation of the STS/STO dynamic esp in light of what the Ra group state in session 17.
Quote:You seem however to enjoy a certain approach to this material, a certain type of play. One that has, as you indicate, an academic flavor, but which involves, I would add, what looks to my limited viewpoint like a lot of word play. I can speak only for myself in saying that it doesn't add clarity to my study of the Law of One, or deepen my understanding. But then again, I'm not an academic.
