Why the hate for wisdom?

[Diana]

Before the account got deleted, he created an OP where he detailed (22+ reasons) why he believes he is Jesus.

I'm responding to this not to argue or question the decision to ban speedforce. Although as an aside, before you were here Jade, there was one member, 3Dmonkey, who was quite an amusing character. He became argumentative and temper-tantrumy and he was banned. But as I look back on that, the difference between then and now is so markedly different. Emotions and anger and are so much higher now as reflected in these forums. I can't help speculating that this is a reflection of the state of the world, or maybe the state of transition.

What I wanted to say was regarding speedforce thinking he is Jesus. To put this into perspective, I have engaged a lot in the New Age community over the last few decades. It is actually common to think things like this in that community. I had a psychic tell me I was Jesus's sister, and a well-known astrologer tell me I was of the lineage of Jesus because I have Regulus on my ascendant. It just isn't that uncommon for people to think these things. Couple that with a need for validation that many, many people have. And beyond that, consider wanderers who have a deep feeling they are special somehow, different, and they feel isolated, and want to grasp at anything that might explain their lack of fitting in.

I agree with Minyatur that it is contextual. By that I mean certain "craziness" is allowed while other "craziness" isn't. I won't go into what I think the crazy is here, because I'm too polite      

However, it's not my job to moderate, so I'm not arguing against any decisions made. I'm just doing what I love to do and that is express my thoughts, which is one way in which I even get to know those thoughts.
