Fusion 

Sentience Part II: Childhood's End

The last two provide the most comprehensive perspective on the whole bewildering complexity of our madness.  I would recommend reversing the order.  Childhood's End may prepare you best for Fusion. They cover everything of import except the long journey to arrive at clarity and the many minor clues.  

Rutting coitus trains men to become selfish, lie, seek conquest, and remain animals.  Loving coitus teaches men to be Human.

The human race has overcome everything but its own insanity.  There is no greater puzzle.  I unraveled it all.

I have only provided a link to Childhood's End on Amazon on the home page.  It should become available on other major online websites for books soon.  

This book wraps it all up.

the mess

  People are not born fuctup.  They are conditioned to become so.  It can even be seen with animals.

That is one of the first branches that occurred within the human race.  Most cultures developed some form of coping mechanism to avoid raising the issue caused by the realization that Loving Coitus did not exist.

All of them created the disastrous assumption there was nothing to be done about it.  Pride, shame, and guilt were at stake.  What a shame.

The first rule was: don't talk about it.  Unfortunately, that led to the presumption, over time, that there was nothing to be done about it.  

Each culture reacted differently.

In the East, the developed that into a way of life referred to as Saving Face.  India's culture seems to have come the closest to accepting openly that something needed to be done (think Kama Sutra).

The west, very early on, had to cope with the realization, like no other culture, because of Sappho (and maybe others) who would not remain silent.  They would not shut up (to put it in misogynistic male terms). It drove certain behaviours.

All praise possible should be heaped on Sappho.  The destructive force of rutting coitus cannot be overcome without confronting it.  If the male gender of most of the world (excluding, at least, the early acceptance in India) had confronted the issue earlier, admitted there was something to be learned, the human race could have avoided a lot of destruction and progressed as a sentient race thousands of years ago.  What can be done to succeed at Loving Coitus could have been accomplished any time in the last three millennia, at least.  It seems so unlikely to happen that way as to be classified as impossible but the human race was capable all along.

Considering the apparent scarcity of sentient aliens, maybe it is even worse (I am averse to using 'intelligent aliens', since it takes more than intelligence to fulfill the sentient state. far more).  Maybe most sentient races wipe themselves out.  There is another alternative that does not need to be considered at this juncture.  We are almost there.

Can you begin to see how fascinating this would be to knock around with someone?  I hope you get the chance.

I have often suggested that the Human race, once it becomes wholly Human, may decide it is not worth the effort to delve into the madness that their predecessors inhabited.

I am no longer so sure.  That may have been just due to bitterness at my own lonely struggle.  Or, it may be true.

What I just wrote, though, goes to the heart of it.  Maybe straightening it all out will make it more palatable to consider, though always completely appalling to accept.

The quandary of Women is another story entirely and this begins to clarify the picture of our past thoroughly.  It leads to their own version of fuctuppedness.

Try as they might to love a man, the love is diminished if not totally rejected by almost every man.  It is subverted by unseen forces.  They try and try and try, many for their whole lives.  They will blame themselves rather than give up.

It is truly stunning. 

Of course, it wears them down.  Of course, some will get so worn down that they will succumb to the male mania, the male madness, accepting that there is nothing to be done.

This is one of the reasons I consider this all so urgent.  The male madness seems to be winning.  

I could be wrong.  If there is not a return to wholesale viciousness and male dominance in the immediate future, then, maybe, just maybe, humanity has already turned the corner.  It won't be because men didn't try to turn the world upside down, once again.

There are signs this is true.  We are about to find out if it is so.  The hate is boiling over as it has so many times in the past.  Will humanity let it boil over or will they need to take a stand to the last man?  We will see shortly.

Shame

 Shame

I have not stressed well enough in any on the books about the most disastrous effect of men of failing at Loving Coitus.  Shame.

It is being played out in the headlines every day.  Shame replaces men's self-respect in the absence of Loving Coitus.  The most direct result is the fear of the individual's shame being exposed.  The more heinous the depths of shame, the more desperate the person becomes to hide their shame.  Do you understand just how warped the situation is?  Honesty is long gone.  Anything but a desperate desire to hide that shame is suppressed.

This can and is leveraged by the most despicable.  It leads to madness incomparable.

The next most direct results of that shame are the lies (which begin with lying to oneself), fear (to the point of paranoia), and self-hate.  

The usual disclaimer applies.  The effect varies according to the individual man's circumstances and environment.  Make no mistake, though.  It affects all men that do not succeed to some extent at loving and it prevents all but those that do succeed from even attempting to become wholly Human.  I am not certain even those that succeed can truly be considered Human under the circumstances of being surrounded by madness.  They can hide away or participate in the attempt to right the madness, but they cannot succeed until they realize that every man can succeed.  If they think there is something special about themselves, they have failed.

In the worst cases, it is transformed into severely toxic masculinity and is, then, twisted into hate for oneself and one's existence by a bizarre set of beliefs including delusions of grandeur that leads to the most bizarre desire to portray oneself as master of the universe rather than master of oneself, and the belief that existence itself owes the individual for its pain.  

Do you see how that works?  His own failure "isn't fair".   Most haven't the slightest idea that their pain is not unique. All because the animal's lead has been followed flawlessly in order to fail at retaining the slightest trace of his Humanity.

Even in the best cases, it still wears away at the soul.  Why can't I succeed at Loving Coitus?  I am just guessing here, but it seems the most likely outcome, once a man openly asks that question of himself, is success.  It is, at least, success at loving by some means.  It is those that hide from every truth that are truly mad.

Clarity is required for all.  

It is of primary importance to realize that it is no one's fault.  It is a matter of initial conditions and the inertia of the past.  This is a key point.  There is no need to "badness" as it is currently defined.  There is no curse on humanity, other that the inability to clarify the problem.  Evil is a crock created by the stupour.  "Bad" people do not need to exist.

Do you also see the scale on which this works?  The most primitive, illiterate, uneducated man can be Human.  It does't take book learning to learn how to love.  It is just realizing that we all can be masters of our bodies because we think differently from animals.  We can really think things through.  

I'm not sure how this applies to women, since they do not even need to be master of their bodies in order to love.  Will they want to anyways?  Is there any benefit?

Once a man has confidence in himself that he can love, all doors are opened.  A man wouldn't stoop to coercing a woman in any way.  Coercion may be a much better word that misogyny.  It describes the gentlest to the most heinous version of that which toxic males do to women.  It is all coercion.

Once the male gender has confidence it can love, the Human species begins its journey as a sentient race.

The problems are all due to shame.  The resolution has all to do with retaining self-respect.  Which, I guess, could be considered the antithesis of shame.

What makes it even worse is that shame wants to hide.  It gets so bad that people bend their brains to justify their shameful thoughts, words, and deeds.

From the point forward that men have no shame, the conman or grifter won't have a chance to exist.

I call it informed innocence of a sentient species.  You'll have to look elsewhere for further explanations of informed innocence.

The next step

I've mentioned before (many times, probably) that our brains have been developing, since the beginning (like long before humanity ever existed) due to the inharmonious, but reconcilable, state of coitus.

I've always worried a bit whether it was possible that our brains would cease to develop once the conundrum so unkind was eliminated.  This has to do with the thread of the Trajectory Of Life and the speculative supposition that the state of coitus was a central aspect of the brain's development.  

Duh.  I finally realized the answer is in the resolution.

In order to perform Loving Coitus, the human male must use his brain like never before.  Well, except for my own effort that was required to unravel the gordian knot of our madness.  

He has to use his brain as a sentient being, finally.   He has to learn to master his body to an extent never before considered.  The flood of honest male confidence that will occur will also have a beneficial effect.  

This is, of course, in the remaining presence of the other beneficial factors of our sentient state and the liberation of the inherent loving nature of the female gender that has always been awaiting its release.  The released energy brought on by Human confidence will be incomparable.

The ripple effect is extraordinary to contemplate. 

It will really help in extrapolating our Sentient Reorientation.

What went wrong

  Sometimes, I think it had to get this bad to get to the answers.  In some ways, at this late date (and I think all the way through), I have had to rely on the blatant madness to articulate what was wrong.  It is becoming more obvious, day by day.

I have always relied on observation.  So, maybe the madness had to become so blatant that it was easy to detect to detect in order to determine its cause.

Right now, it is like a flashing neon sign or a solar flare:  (Some) men hate their existence so desperately because they have lost their ability to love.  they turn to hate, dominance, greed, obsessions of every kind rather than face their failure to love.  It breaks my heart.

The remarkable solution

 The Remarkable resolution

I've hinted at this before in ASP.  I think it is in the post The Road Forward.

You could sit a man in front of all of the education material in the world.  You could provide the best, most congenial, engaging teacher in the world to learn all about, well, everything, and the most intractable men, the ones that have gone down the road of delusion, anger, violence, and dissipation the furthest, would not be willing to learn a damn thing.

But, Loving Coitus is different.  I admit that the most dissolute and delusional might not be able to see their way through to learning Loving Coitus and fight against accepting the concept; but everyone else, once they are convinced it is possible to succeed, will be knocking the door down to find out how.  

Unrestricted love is the most fundamental desire of a sentient being.  When it cannot be obtained, well, look around.  A tentatively sentient race, makes a mess of its existence in its absence.

ghost site

 Ghost site

I've been off speculating further.  I had some really juicy insights that I had popped off.  After a second read, I realized that they were not ready for primetime.  So, I put them on the ghost site, where I expect those really dedicated to seeking our humanity with a will that have acquired a fair degree certainty that we can be more than a grubbing animal wreaking havoc are present already.

The reason I did so is that the discourses emphasize what I could have accomplished if I had found a single person that had on open mind, that was willing to speculate without purposeless bounds that prevent wide open thinking and innocence to flourish.  It still remains true though, maybe, I have pried a few minds open.  I can only hope.

For those whose minds are pried open and can see, then the site might be useful as a basis for extrapolating the future.  Or not.  I haven't put that much effort into it, yet.

There is a lot left to reveal about our Humanity.  I call it reorientation, a Sentient Reorientation.

Whew!  It is a nice step to have begun linking the stupour to what happens once it is revealed.  In other words, I've begun to paint the background of a sentient existence.  

It still drives me crazy that I have no one to share it with in a more personal setting, in which such a dialogue could exist.  It would have accelerated all of this to an extraordinary degree.  

It also pretty much represents what I have sacrificed.  A life that is bare of sharing in an informal setting.  That hurts.

I'm ready to settle into investigating sentient reorientation.  This will either be a total bust or the most accurate portrayal of the future of a sentient species in its reorientation phase ever.

Of course, there is no competition regarding the subject of an accurate portrayal of the human species, because no one has ever really tried before.  There are the vague maunderings from our distant past but they seem like something from a meth-head or a mental patient.

Mine will be different in another way as well.  It is going to attempt to address each of the points very specifically.  It's no god rising from the clouds in a booming voice and saying, "bad boys! shame on you"(finally; guilt never helped at all; see Shame)  

As I've said before, no one is coming to save us.  It is up to us.

It is a step by step projection of the state of increasing orientation on clarity.  It is of an exciting level of complexity and clarity as one necessary component is linking the past to a sane future.  By a human being attempting to project a rational future for a sentient race that is finally reaching for its sentient state.  I don't believe it to be of critical importance.  Informed innocence will show the way, sooner or later.  I would just like to accelerate the change.  Call me impatient and you would not be wrong.

Humanity will orient on clarity, bolstered by confidence in its informed innocence.  That is the focus.  

This almost freaks me out.  I don't know that I want it published until it is already accomplished in life.  It is too much for a single person to suggest all on his own.

The horns of a dilemma.  I almost feel like making a new site for members only to discuss what I would like to suggest rather than publish a book.  I would have to name it, Scenario Planning, because that is what we would be doing.  But, no.

I'll put that with which I feel comfortable here.  Hopefully, excluding those that are not intent on seeking our Humanity by doing so, since there is no easy way to discover this site any longer.

I'd hate to publish and it be said, afterwards, that I had concocted the whole thing.  Especially if it is accurate ... I don't know.  It just makes me a bit queazy and uncertain as to the benefits of publishing it all on my own.

This is really tricky!  I have put together, what I think is, a very good image of our journey to sentience with a few vagaries left that branch out in different directions regarding our sentient future.

Damn!  Exceeding my own expectations, again!  

When I pursued the puzzle of the human conundrum regarding coitus, I did not expect to succeed.  It was just the most important puzzle for a race of our capabilities.  

Now, I feel success is confirmed as I watch the antics in the headlines and the buzz on the street.  Exactly what I have been saying is our root cause issue is raising its head in all of its disgusting incompetence, once again.  It has been doing so for a decade or five.  In this case, though, unlike past instantiations of the madness, the shame of the male gender is making itself much more apparent.  Finally.  

The stupour cannot hold through this.  The male gender has finally shown its hand while, simultaneously continuing to hide from its shame. (think Epstein and that university case of rape perpetrated by seven and shared in silence by fifty-one)

Now, I've gone and done it, again!  This time, though, I do not need to publish.  Sentient Reorientation will happen.  I would just like to coax it along as quickly as possible.  The longer the stupour remains, the more disastrous the results.  

I could just keep it for my own edification and see how far it pans out before I become one with the dirt.  As I've said often, I'm not looking for acclaim.  Just discussion.  But, everyone has been too caught up in the stupour or their own troubles to discuss this.  That may still be true.  Probably is.

This subject, our sentient reorientation, should be a lot easier to discuss than the previous topic, the subject that caused the stupour.  The shame froze us in place for three millennia because it is difficult for an animal to face its shame and realize that there is something that can be done about it.  

This subject is different.  Those that have faced the shame of an emerging sentient race can easily face the scenarios leading to a rational, loving, emotionally mature sentient state. 

It is based in speculation about the future and zeroes in on particular scenarios that work; that make inevitable sense.  

The topic that caused the stupour was a matter of wracking one's brain in the opposite direction, so to speak.  It was matter of tearing apart the tissue of lies that we have been telling ourselves.  No one wanted to do that.  No one wanted to believe it.  Weird that.  

It took as stout heart.  This is far different.  This is the building a future based on clarity down to the finest detail.  It's a build out rather than the demolition of a tatty facade.

So, I will begin by putting a few raw pieces seeking insights on the ghost site (let's call it LP) and see if anyone will react and show that they are willing to participate in moving us along into our sentient reorientation. 

I want to add a couple of the insightst here that I think are rather well thought out.  Tell me if I am wrong.

Innocence

Innocence makes it easy to detect the lie, the deception, which, when you come down to it, is what the term evil is all about.

In some cases, 'evil' just comes down to someone just shooting their mouths off to get attention and lying because they haven't what it takes to tell the truth, to be honest.

The difference between an animal's innocence and that of a sentient race is informed innocence, which is not available to a dim-witted animal.

Masculinity

Another wrong lesson that the human race has adopted is that people are learning to despise masculinity.  They do not distinguish that they despise the sad caricature of masculinity rather than the reality.  In the prehuman environment there is little to distinguish between the two.

Masculinity and femininity are both spectacular, when they are honest representations of a sentient being.

I have seen femininity expressed at it finest, even with the terrible burden that the male gender has heaped on it.  I just wish I could express my masculinity that well, but I'm afraid that may take a lifetime or two more.  I would be incredibly lucky to be able to do so in this lifetime at this stage in life.  To some extent, for certain, it is just impossible.

I finally found the roadblock that will not go away in this lifetime.  It has to do with the composition of a personality, the way we develop.  There is no getting around that development entirely in the single lifetime in which it has been dealt the blow of the stupour, even if the stupour is finally overcome (which I have done, at least, to some extent).  It is also why renewal of the species is so crucial.  At least, until we attain a sentient state.  That is a totally different area to be explored.

The two on the ghost site are attempting to dig towards specifics regarding what differentiates a Human species from a prehuman species.  There is something there.

By the way, I'm still not satisfied with the way I express the criticality of Loving Coitus.  It should be able to be expressed in a single sentence that can penetrate the stupour with ease.  At worst, the Human, wholly sentient species will be able to do so.

Shame and fear

 Shame and, then, fear

This seems redundant to "Shame" but I'll leave it any ways.  I haven't reviewed it umpteen times, either.

It is just such a mixed up reaction, that could only happen to an animal beyond its bounds and, yet, still bereft of its sentience, that it is hard to describe.

I almost wrote the title as "Fear and Shame" but, then, realized, especially in the context of Loving Coitus that the shame is what leads to the fear.

For a male, life goes along just fine (except for the inevitable effect of previous generations of men causing even the youngest male child to question his place in the world) and, then, puberty hits.   

Sooner or later, shame begins to creep up on the man.  He begins to realize he is deficient in the art of loving.  Of course, he doesn't put it in those words, since he has never been introduced to the concept properly.  In fact, the male gender's intent has always been to condition the male to avoid this discrepancy in his life at all costs.  He just begins to get the creepy feeling that something is wrong.  He begins to feel shame.  He will spend his lifetime avoiding the notion.

The next step is also inevitable.  This is where the fear comes in.  He begins to fear exposure of his awful secret.

In context of recent headlines, some men go on to pursue obsessions, like money as the most distracting obsession in these days and times.  As he begins to substitute money for his humanity, he is easy prey for those that desire to exploit his fear and shame.  The manipulators.

They turn his shame and fear on its head.  "You shouldn't be ashamed!  You are a master of the universe.  Bend everyone to your will."  Even if all of the pursuits are drivel. This is how the most horrific misdirection of the ages has come about, lately.  

Ply these men with adulation and develop the cruel streak that the absence of their ability to love has encouraged, and you can create true monsters, unless they stand up for humanity and human existence.  

Send them to an island to indulge their cruelty and remove any trace of their humanity and you have a tool to turn the whole race on its head and send them back to their animal state.

You also can play on their fear of exposing their shame, as well as the cruel and inhuman acts that were perpetrated and surely documented in detail.

The worst of the worst can be used as a template for other men assaulted by their shame and fear.

That was the whole idea of The Garden Of Eden, after all.  The longing to return to the stupour of the animal when no one had a worthy thought in their heads.

There is still the slight chance that they can turn the tide, if they acknowledge their humanity and responsibility to the human race and dispel the mesmerizing influence that was used on them.  It will prove whether they are willing to remain cretins or show some semblance of their Humanity.

They will have to face their fear and shame, finally, In order to do so.
