Man
XtremeHOHA
The Neandertal and Cro-Magnon were essentially modern human beings.
Primitive Homo Sapian. At the zenith of apedom. They met up in Northern
Israel. No coincidence. They served a purpose in their genes.
When the Almighty said; "Let us make man in our image and our likeness."
We think he was talking about the man outside the Gated Garden. Who were
genetically 'mutated' through certain stages of development. Up to the zenith
of their intellectual; and physical nature of a primitive.
He took specific genes from the primitive Homo Sapien. And genes of the
Kingdom to make a new species of mankind (Adam) that was more in their
image and likeness. A hairless, intelligent, sentient, genetically perfect being,
non umbilicus, with the knowledge and ways of the primitive Homo Sapien
not yet awakened. The new male was a clean slate. Put in more or less an
environment where his pro genitors lived. But severely controlled.
Anyway.......
The Almighty made a female with genes from the males rib. A new addition to
the equation. They were both nude. And were not ashamed. Clean slates. The
woman would be the virgin in whom He would bear His son in flesh. The reason
and the motive for the physical, natural, Creation.
It didn't work out that way for Him. But it did for us. Because we too have the
genes of Cain and his parents, as well as all of our primitive Homo Sapien genes.
The genes of swill that corrupt and kill, awakened, dominant, and running amok
with the knowledge of the Almighty and His hosts.
It makes us rocket scientists only, with a missing particle, and makes us capable
of arguing an Omnipotent Creator.
The Almighty had His son born to a virgin anyway, Albeit a hybrid virgin.
There is a method and a motive behind the Almighty's "madness."

Going along so far;
21 - NEANDERTAL'S FATE AND THE ORIGIN OF OUR KIND
WHERE DID ANATOMICALLY modern human beings first appear? It may have been in
Africa, to judge from fossils recovered in caves near the southern tip of that
continent at a site known as Klasies River Mouth. The dating, dependent on
geological markers, is far from precise, having an upper limit of 115,000 and a
lower limit of 85,000 years ago. Anatomically the Klasies River hominids are
fully modern in appearance, but the tools they used are not very different from
chose associated with more archaic types of sapiens in Africa and Neandercals in
Europe. Very early remains of anatomically modern sapiens have also been found at
Qafzeh Cave near Nazareth in Israel. There the dating is more precise, 92,000 ą
5,000 years, based on the emission of electrons trapped in stone tools that had
once been exposed to fire. Again, most of the tools themselves were not much
different from those employed by archaic sapiens. In contrast to these early
African and Middle Eastern dates, anatomically modern sapiens did not appear in
Europe and Asia until after 45,000 years ago. But by that time, they were using
tools that were quite different from tools possessed by archaic sapiens and were
already at the point of cultural and linguistic takeoff.
One interpretation of these finds is that modern sapiens originated in Africa and
then spread to Europe and Asia via the Middle East. But given the lower estimate
of Klasies River, at 85,000 years, it is possible that modern sapiens appeared
first in the Middle East and then subsequently dispersed to Africa, Europe, and
Asia. Whether the migration went from the Middle East to Africa or from Africa to
the Middle East, it is hard to understand why the spread to Europe and Asia seems
to have taken 50,000 years while the spread between the Middle East and Africa
required an interval of only about 5,000 years. Perhaps with the northern
latitudes in the grip of the Ice Age, modern sapiens lacked a motivation for
leaving their homelands.
The alternative interpretation of the Qafzeh and Klasies River cave materials is
that the transition from archaic to modern sapiens took place not in one but in
several world regions. In this view, which is defended by Mildreth Wolpoffofthe
University of Michigan and James Spuhler of the University of New Mexico,
Neandertals were not a separate species of hominid but the direct progenitors of
modern humans who lingered on in Europe and the Middle East as racial variants
and who had their counterparts in other transitional archaic races in Africa and
Asia. Both sides in this dispute have turned to the analysis of DNA obtained from
different modern races to bolster their positions. Theoretically, one should be
able to tell from the number of changes that have accumulated in the DNA of the
cellular organelles known as mitochondria in what order the major regional
populations diverged from a common female ancestor, and how long ago.
Unfortunately, this work is still in an experimental stage, and one should remain
skeptical of a widely publicized claim made by Rebecca Cann and her associates at
the University of Hawaii that our kind's "Eve" was a woman who lived in Africa
140,000 to 290,000 years ago.
Another part of the puzzle is the coexistence of Neandertals and modern sapiens
in the Middle East. At Mount Carmel not far from Qafzeh, archaeologists found
bones and tools belonging to Neandertals that date to 60,000 years before the
present. This means that in the Middle East, unlike in Europe, Neandertals and
modern sapiens may have coexisted for 30,000 years (from 65,000 to 35,000 years
ago). And not only did they coexist for all those millennia, but they
manufactured and used the same kinds of tools for the whole period.
I am prompted therefore to raise the question of just how "human" the
anatomically modern sapiens of Klasies River and Qafzeh really were. Did they
possess the program for human linguistic competence? My hunch is that prior to
45,000-35,000 years ago the linguistic and cultural capacities of anatomically
modern sapiens were not yet fully formed and were no more advanced than the
Neandertals'. This would explain why the tools associated with early African and
Middle Eastern modern sapiens are very similar to tools used by Neandertals in
Europe and the Middle East and why it was possible for Neandertals and modern
sapiens to exist in close proximity for at least 30,000 years in the Middle East
while their coexistence in Europe did not last more than 5,000 years.
When modern sapiens suddenly appeared in Europe, their technology was a quantum
jump ahead of the Neandertals'. The basis of stonework was no longer cores and
flakes but long, thin, razor-sharp blades detached with great precision and
economy from carefully selected flint nodules. At the same time, they had become
masters of cutting, carving, and drilling in materials such as bone, ivory, and
antler. They had invented needles and were probably sewing garments to fit the
shape of their bodies. They were using throwing boards that extended the range
they could hurl spears and darts, and their projectiles could be equipped with a
dazzling choice of ingenious barbed and tanged points.
Aside from one or two isolated sites in France, Neandertal remains have never
been found in association with these advanced tools and weapons, implying that
our kind had become much faster learners than the Neandertals and that the
Neandertals were never able to achieve cultural and linguistic takeoff.
I don't want to say that direct armed confrontations caused their demise. Both
the invaders and the Neandertals lived in small, mobile bands, and neither
possessed the political organization necessary to wage wars of extermination. But
it would have taken only an occasional skirmish with the newcomers to make the
Neanderrals retreat into areas that offered diminished opportunities for hunting.
This would have led to undernutrition, elevated mortality rates, and an
accelerated decline in what was at the outset an already sparse population. I
cannot help thinking that a very different kind of scenario would have unfolded
had the Neandertals been the equals of our kind in their capacity for language
and culture.

They can't all be right. But they can all be wrong. It's all speculation.
I think she lived at the same time as the primitive Homo sapien. But she, in a Gated
Garden.
Our genes show very little evidence of the Neandertal. Scientists suspect the gene
we have, that causes Multiple Schlerosis, came from the Neandertal. We are supposedly
more Cro-Magnon. One thing is for sure. We are over 99% chimp genes. It's that other
less than 1% that gives us the ability to become rocket scientists and enables us to argue
a Creator and evolution.

If they were hybrids of Cain, they had a language.
As stated earlier. The Neandertal had our vocal chords. They were passive and more
caring than their counterparts. They cared for the old. Buried their dead with flower
petals.
And one 'theory' is, they interbred. A new hybrid. A Cro-Nean? Still just a primitive
modern human. Not any smarter.

There it is. Suddenly. The missing link. Rouge offspring of Cain. They probably had
a language.

That's pretty arrogant. Aren't you diversified? Look at the Neandertal still alive on

The beginning of the genetic engineering, in stages of development, of our
Homo sapien pro-genitor(s).
"Beginning about 125,000 years ago, a handful of our human ancestors
lived in a handful of caves on the Tsitsikamma coast of South Africa, near
the small stream called Klasies River. The site located at the very southern
tip of Africa provides evidence of the behavior of Homo sapiens at our very
earliest moments of existence, and a slightly uncomfortable peek into our
distant past."
That peek, is the Almighty God. At work.
>
<<<SNIP>>>
>
"These bones were unequivocally modern human; at a time when no other
modern humans are known--only Neanderthals and early modern Homo
existed outside of Africa."
With genes from the Klasies River clan. And lots in between.
>
<<SNIP>>>
>
"While archaeologists and paleontologists continue to debate whether modern
humans are descended only from the Homo sapiens populations from Africa,
or from a combination of Homo sapiens and Neanderthal, the Klasies River
cave populations are still our ancestors, and are still representatives of the
earliest known modern humans on the planet."
Homo sapiens interbreeding with Cain is our take.
http://archaeology.about.com/cs/humanorigins/a/klasiesriver.htm
And those primitive 125,000 year old 'modern' humans are back in Africa. Doesn't
mean we evolved from them. Or mutated into civilized mankind from them. Or one
of their woman were the mother of all mankind .They still exist. The Neandertal and
Cro-Magnon, don't.
The 'huge' jump to modern civilized man. With improved weapons of death and
preservation. Popping out of nowhere. The missing link. The hybrids of Cain.
From working in stones, bones and wood. Cannabilism and scavenging. To working
in brass and iron. The start of the iron age.
The lineage of Cain is given but no life span recorded until Eve bore a third son,
Seth. Long after Cain's offspring were well on their way creating, populating and
dominating.
Then A&E bore many sons and daughters after the birth of Seth. The second wave
of hybrids. And they were spread all over the globe.
Our hybridization was complete. Then came inbreeding and perversion. "The sons
of Almighty God (hybrids) seeing the daughters of men (other hybrids) took to
themselves many wives."
"And there were giants born in those days, the men of renown."
And then destruction of the corrupted species but for a few chosen.
Every time a 'man knew his wife' in the Torah, it was copulation. They were 'auto
married.' No ritual performed in a marriage ceremony. Just take her and copulate.
Lust it's called.
We've come a long way from spear chucking, cave dwelling (primitive) Homo
sapien. And became a lot smarter through the genes of Cain. What happened
to the Muslims? They're still living in caves.

Team Satan had to change their name when they became international TV

...the weight of the evidence does not support the catharsis hypothesis. At first
glance, catharsis appears to be a reasonable idea because it does seem to square
with casual experience. That is, when somebody angers us, venting our hostility
against that person does indeed seem to make us feel better. However, venting our
hostility does not reduce our feeling of hostility. What could be going on to
contradict this prediction? With humans, aggression is not merely dependent on
tension-what one feels-but also on what the person thinks. Put yourself in the
place of a subject in the previous experiments: After once shocking another
person or expressing hostility against your old boss, it becomes easier to do so
a second time. Aggressing the first time can reduce your inhibition against
committing other such actions; the aggression is legitimized, and it becomes
easier to carry out such assaults. Furthermore, the main thrust of the research
on this issue indicates that committing an overt act of aggression against a
person changes one's feelings about that person, increasing one's negative
feelings toward the target and therefore increasing the probability of future
aggression against that person.
Why? As we have seen in the preceding chapter, when a person does harm to another
person, it sets cognitive processes in motion aimed at justifying that act of
cruelty. Specifically, when we hurt another person, we experience cognitive
dissonance. The cognition "I have hurt Sam" is dissonant with the cognition "I am
a decent, reasonable, good person." A good way for me to reduce dissonance is
somehow to convince myself that hurting Sam was not an indecent, unreasonable,
bad thing to do. I can accomplish this by blinding myself to Sam's virtues and by
emphasizing his faults, by convincing myself that Sam is a terrible human being
who deserved to be hurt. This is the mechanism that underlies the phenomenon of
blaming the victim-convincing ourselves that, somehow, the victim deserved the
negative events to which he or she has fallen victim. This would hold especially
if the target is an innocent victim of my aggression. Thus, in experiments by
David Glass and by Keith E. Davis and Edward E. Jones (discussed in the preceding
chapter), the subjects inflicted either psychological or physical harm on an
innocent person who had done them no prior harm. The subjects then proceeded to
derogate the victim, convincing themselves that he was not a very nice person and
therefore deserved what he got. This reduces dissonance all right, and it also
sets the stage for further aggression; once you have derogated a person, it makes
it easier for you to hurt that person in the future.
But what happens if the victim isn't so innocent? What happens if he or she has
done something to make you angry and therefore does indeed deserve retaliation?
Here the situation becomes more complex and more interesting. One of several
experiments performed to test this issue was a well-conceived study by Michael
Kahn. In Kahn's experiment, a medical technician, taking physiological
measurements from college students, made derogatory remarks about these students.
In one experimental condition, the subjects were allowed to vent their hostility
by expressing their feelings about the technician to his employer-an action that
would probably get the technician into serious trouble, perhaps even cost him his
job. In another condition, they were not provided with the opportunity to express
any aggression against him. What would psychoanalytic theory predict would occur?
That's easy: The inhibited group would experience tension, a good deal of anger,
and hostile feelings against the technician, while the group that expressed their
feelings would feel relieved, relaxed, and less hostile toward him. In short,
according to psychoanalytic theory, expressing hostility would purge the insulted
subjects of their hostile feelings. Being a good Freudian, Kahn expected these
results. He was surprised and (to his credit) excited to find evidence to the
contrary. Specifically, those who were allowed to express their aggression
subsequently felt greater dislike and hostility toward the technician than did
those who were inhibited from expressing their aggression. In other words,
expressing aggression did not inhibit the tendency to aggress; it tended to
increase it-even when the target was not simply an innocent victim.
What Kahn's experiment illustrates is that, when people are made angry, they
frequently engage in overkill. In this case, costing the technician his job is a
serious form of overkill compared to the harm the technician perpetrated. The
overkill produces dissonance in much the same way that hurting an innocent person
does. That is, there is a discrepancy between what the person did to you and the
force of the retaliation. That discrepancy must be justified, and just as in the
"innocent victim" experiments, the justification takes the form of derogating the
object of your wrath after you have hurt that person.
But what happens if you can arrange it so that retaliation is not allowed to run
roughshod over the target? That is, what if the degree of retaliation is
reasonably controlled so that it is not significantly more intense than the
action that precipitated it? In such a circumstance, I would predict that there
would be little or no dissonance. "Sam has insulted me; I've paid him back; we're
even. I have no need to retaliate further."This is what was found in an
experiment by Anthony Doob and Larraine Wood. As in Kahn's experiment, Doob and
Wood arranged things so that their subjects were humiliated and annoyed by an
accomplice. In one condition, they were given the opportunity to retaliate by
administering a series of electric shocks to their tormentor. In this situation,
once the score was evened, they had no further need to punish their tormentor.
But those subjects who had not been given the opportunity to retaliate did
subsequently choose to punish their tormentor. Thus, we have seen that
retaliation can reduce the need for further aggression if something akin to
equity has been restored. There is a major point here that must be underscored:
Most situations in the real world are not as neat as the Doob and Wood situation,
where retaliation can be made functionally similar to the original act. In my
opinion, the world is usually closer to the situation in Michael Kahn's
experiment: Retaliation typically outstrips the original act by a great deal. For
example, whatever the students at Kent State University might have been doing to
the members of the Ohio National Guard (shouting obscenities, teasing, taunting),
it hardly merited being shot and killed. Moreover, most victims of massive
aggression are totally innocent. In all these situations, the opposite of
catharsis takes place. Thus, once I have shot dissenting students at Kent State,
I will convince myself they really deserved it, and I will hate dissenting
students even more than I did before I shot them; once I have slaughtered women
and children at My Lai, I will be even more convinced that Asians aren't really
human than I was before I slaughtered them; once I have denied black people a
decent education, I will become even more convinced that they are stupid and
couldn't have profited from a good education to begin with. In most situations,
committing violence does not reduce the tendency toward violence: Violence breeds
more violence.
Causes of Aggression
As we have seen, one major cause of violence is violence itself. When a person
commits an act of aggression, especially with a force that exceeds what the
victim may have done to elicit it, this sets up cognitive and motivational forces
aimed at justifying that aggression that opens the door to increased aggression.
Let us look at some of the other major causes of aggression.

Cognitive distortions are logical, but they are not rational. They can create
real difficulty with your thinking. See if you are doing any of the ten common
distortions that people use. Rate yourself from one to ten with one being low and
ten being high. Ask yourself if you can stop using the distortions and think in a
different way. If any of these hit the mark or address your problem below them is
an introduction to REBT or rational-emotive-behahvior-therapy or "Cognitive
Therapy" for short. This is just one successful method used right now for
interfering with thoughts that ead to such emotions;
ALL-OR-NOTHING THINKING: You see things in black-and-white categories. If your
performance falls short of perfect, you see your self as a total failure.
OVERGENERALIZATION: You see a single negative event as a never-ending pattern of
defeat.
MENTAL FILTER: You pick out a single negative detail and dwell on it exclusively
so that your vision of all reality becomes darkened, like the drop of ink that
discolors the entire beaker of water.
DISQUALIFYING THE POSITIVE: You reject positive experiences by insisting they
"don't count" for some reason or other. In this way you can maintain a negative
belief that is contradicted by your everyday experiences.
JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS: You make a negative interpretation even though there are
no definite facts that convincingly support your conclusion.
MIND READING: You arbitrarily conclude that someone is reacting negatively to
you, and you don't bother to check this out
THE FORTUNETELLER ERROR: you can anticipate that things will turn out badly, and
you feel convinced that your prediction is an already-established fact.
MAGNIFICATION (CATASTROPHIZING) OR MINIMIZATION: You exaggerate the importance of
things (such as your goof-up or someone else's achievement), or you
inappropriately shrink things until they appear tiny (your own desirable
qualities or other fellow's imperfections). This is also called the binocular
trick."
EMOTIONAL REASONING: You assume that your negative emotions necessarily reflect
the way things really are: "I feel it, therefore it must be true."
SHOULD STATEMENTS: You try to motivate yourself with should and shouldn't, as if
you had to be whipped and punished before you could be expected to do anything.
"Musts" and "oughts" are also offenders. The emotional consequences are guilt.
When you direct should statements toward others, you feel anger, frustration, and
resentment.
LABELING AND MISLABELING: This is an extreme form of overgeneralization. Instead
of describing your error, you attach a negative label to yourself. "I'm a loser."
When someone else's behavior rubs you the wrong way, you attach a negative label
to him" "He's a Goddamn louse." Mislabeling involves describing an event with
language that is highly colored and emotionally loaded.
PERSONALIZATION: You see your self as the cause of some negative external event,
which in fact you were not primarily responsible for.

A Brief Introduction to Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy
By Wayne Froggatt
http://www.rational.org.nz/prof/docs/intro-rebt.htm
Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) is based on the concept that emotions
and behaviours result from cognitive processes; and that it is possible for human
beings to modify such processes to achieve different ways of feeling and
behaving. REBT is one of a number of ‘cognitive-behavioural’ therapies, which,
although developed separately, have many similarities – such as Cognitive Therapy
(CT), developed by Psychiatrist Aaron Beck in the 1960’s.
In the mid-1950’s Dr. Albert Ellis, a clinical psychologist trained in
psychoanalysis, became disillusioned with the slow progress of his clients. He
observed that they tended to get better when they changed their ways of thinking
about themselves, their problems, and the world. Ellis reasoned that therapy
would progress faster if the focus was directly on the client’s beliefs, and thus
was born the method now known as Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy.
Theory of causation
REBT proposes a ‘biopsychosocial’ explanation as to how human beings come to feel
and act as they do, suggesting that a combination of biological, psychological,
and social factors are involved.
The most basic premise of REBT is that almost all human emotions and behaviours
are the result of what people think, assume or believe (about themselves, other
people, and the world in general). It is what people believe about situations
they face – not the situations themselves – that determines how they feel and
behave.
REBT, however (along with most other CBT theories), argues that a person’s
biology also affects their feelings and behaviours (an important point, as it is
a reminder to the therapist that there are some limitations on how far a person
can change). Also involved are the events and circumstances faced by a person as
they go through life.
A useful way to illustrate this triple approach to causation is by using Ellis’
‘ABC’ model. In this framework ‘A’ represents an activating event or experience
and the person’s inferences or interpretations about the event; ‘B’ represents
their beliefs about the event; ‘C’ represents the consequence – the emotions and
behaviours that follow from those thoughts and beliefs.
Here is an example of an ‘emotional episode’, as experienced by a person whose
history indicates a biological proneness to low mood and a tendency to
misinterpret how he is viewed by other people:
A. What started things off:
Event: friend passed me in the street without acknowledging me.
Inferences about the event: “He’s ignoring me; he doesn’t like me.”
B. Beliefs about A:
‘I could end up without friends for ever – and that would be terrible.’
‘For me to be happy and feel worthwhile, people must like me.’
‘I’m unacceptable as a friend – so I must be worthless as a person.’
C. Reaction:
Feelings: lonely, depressed.
Behaviours: avoiding people generally.
Note that ‘A’ does not cause ‘C’: ‘A’ triggers off ‘B’, ‘B’ then causes ‘C’.
Also, ABC episodes do not stand alone – they run in chains, with a ‘C’ often
becoming the ‘A’ of another episode. For instance, the person above may observe
their low mood, telling himself: “Oh, no – I’m getting depressed again and I
couldn’t bear that”, then feel anxious. Human beings frequently observe their own
emotions and behaviours then react anew to them.
Note, too, that most beliefs are outside conscious awareness. They are habitual
or automatic, often consisting of underlying ‘rules’ about how the world and life
should be. With practice, though, people can learn to uncover such subconscious
beliefs.
What is irrational thinking?
We have seen that what people think determines how they feel. But what types of
thinking are problematical for human beings?
A definition
To describe a belief as ‘irrational’ is to say that:
1. It blocks a person from achieving their goals, creates extreme emotions
that persist and which distress and immobilise, and leads to behaviours that harm
oneself, others, and one’s life in general.
2. It distorts reality (it is a misinterpretation of what is happening and is
not supported by the available evidence);
3. It contains illogical ways of evaluating oneself, others, and the world:
demandingness, awfulising, discomfort-intolerance and people-rating.
Contemporary REBT often refers to beliefs as ‘self-defeating’ rather than
‘irrational’, in order to emphasise that the effect on a person’s life is the key
criteria for deciding whether a belief is irrational.
The Three Levels of Thinking
Human beings appear to think at three levels: (1) Inferences; (2) Evaluations;
and (3) Core beliefs.
Every individual has a set of general ‘core beliefs’ – usually subconscious –
that determines how they react to life. When an event triggers off a train of
thought, what someone consciously thinks depends on the core beliefs they
subconsciously apply to the event.
Let’s say that a person holds the core belief: ‘For me to be happy, my life must
be safe and predictable.’ Such a belief will lead them to be hypersensitive to
any possibility of danger and overestimate the likelihood of things going wrong.
Suppose they hear a noise in the night. Their hypersensitivity to danger leads
them to infer that there is an intruder in the house. They then evaluate this
possibility as catastrophic and unbearable, which creates feelings of panic.
Here is an example (using the ABC model) to show how it all works:
A. Your neighbour phones and asks if you will baby-sit for the rest of the day.
You had already planned to catch up with some gardening. You infer what will
happen: ‘If I say no, she will think badly of me.’
B. You evaluate your inference: ‘I couldn’t stand to have her disapprove of me
and see me as selfish.’
Your evaluation comes from the underlying rule: ‘I need love and approval from
those significant to me – and I must avoid disapproval from any source.’
C. You say yes.
In summary, people view themselves and the world around them at three levels:
(1) inferences, (2) evaluations, and (3) underlying rules/core beliefs. The
therapist’s main objective is to deal with the underlying, semi-permanent,
general ‘rules’ that are the continuing cause of the client’s unwanted
reactions.
REBT places greater emphasis on dealing with evaluative-type thinking than do
other cognitive-behavioural approaches, which focus rather more on inferential
thinking. REBT especially underscores the centrality of demandingness over other
types of thinking.
Two Types of Disturbance
REBT suggests that human beings defeat or ‘disturb’ themselves in two main ways:
(1) by holding irrational beliefs about their ‘self’ (ego disturbance) or (2) by
holding irrational beliefs about their emotional or physical comfort (discomfort
disturbance). Frequently, the two go together – people may think irrationally
about both their ‘selves’ and their circumstances – though one or the other will
usually be predominant.
Inferences
In everyday life, events and circumstances trigger off two levels of thinking:
inferring and evaluating. First, we make guesses or inferences about what is
‘going on’ – what we think has happened, is happening, or will be happening.
Inferences are statements of ‘fact’ (or at least what we think are the facts –
they can be true or false). Inferences that are irrational usually consist of the
following ‘distortions of reality’:
Black and white thinking
Filtering
Over-generalisation
Mind-reading
Fortune-telling
Emotional reasoning
Personalising
The seven types of inferential thinking described above have been outlined by
Aaron Beck and his associates (see, for example: Burns, David M. Feeling Good:
The new mood therapy. Signet, New American Library, New York, 1980). In REBT, a
person’s inferences are regarded as part of the ‘A’.
Evaluations
More significantly from the REBT perspective, as well as making inferences about
things that happen, we go beyond the ‘facts’ to evaluate them in terms of what
they mean to us. Evaluations are sometimes conscious, sometimes beneath
awareness. Irrational evaluations consist of one or more of the following four
types:
Demandingness. Referred to colourfully by Ellis as ‘musturbation’, demandingness
refers to the way people use unconditional shoulds and absolutistic musts –
believing that certain things must or must not happen, and that certain
conditions (for example success, love, or approval) are absolute necessities.
Demandingness implies certain ‘Laws of the Universe’ that must be adhered to.
Demands can be directed either toward oneself or others. Some REBT theorists see
demandingness as the ‘core’ type of irrational thinking, suggesting that the
other three types derive from it
Awfulising. Exaggerating the consequences of past, present or future events;
seeing something as awful, terrible, horrible – the worst that could happen.
Discomfort intolerance (often referred to as ‘can’t-stand-it-itis’). This is
based on the idea that one cannot bear some circumstance or event. It often
follows awfulising, and leads to demands that certain things not happen.
People-Rating. People-rating refers to the process of evaluating one’s entire
self (or someone else’s). In other words, trying to determine the total value of
a person or judging their worth. It represents an overgeneralisation. The person
evaluates a specific trait, behaviour or action according to some standard of
desirability or worth. Then they apply the evaluation to their total person – eg.
‘I did a bad thing, therefore I am a bad person.’ People-rating can lead to
reactions like self-downing, depression, defensiveness, grandiosity, hostility,
or overconcern with approval and disapproval.
Rules (core beliefs)
Rules, as we saw earlier, are the underlying beliefs that guide how we react to
life. What specific events mean to someone (how they evaluate them) depends on
the underlying, general ‘rules’ they hold. Ellis proposes that a small number of
core beliefs underlie most unhelpful emotions and behaviours. Here is a sample
list of such ‘rules for living’:

and rationally plan your reform or escape.
http://www.seinan-gu.ac.jp/~mew/philos.8.ethics.stoicism.html
The majority of mortals complain bitterly of the spitefulness of nature,
because we are born for such a brief span of life, because even this space
that has been granted to us rushes by so speedily and so swiftly that all
save a very few find life at an end just when they are getting ready to
live.
That was the stick. Then came the carrot.
Yet the life we receive is not short, but we make it so, nor do we have any
lack of it, but are wasteful of it.
And he added, "our life is amply long if ordered properly."
What Seneca meant here was that people would do well to have more concern
for the values and priorities of life. He was urging his readers to
reconsider their goals, to reassess themselves, to give the truly important
things more time, and to act now.
By way of example, we can we look around us today and see many people living
life on what might be called the "deferred payment plan." Children commonly
say, "Just wait until I grow up." Students can't wait until they finish
school and leave home so they can begin to live as they like. When young
people date, they look forward to the time when they will be married. Then
they'll be happy. When married they look ahead to owning their own home.
Then they'll be happy. When winter comes, they look to Spring, or to the day
they can move to California. If they have children they say, "When the kids
grow up and leave home, then we'll be able to do what we want." Of course
there's still the job. So they look to retirement as the time to live.
Seneca denounced this attitude in the strongest language:
Are you not embarrassed to reserve for yourself only the remnant of life,
and to set apart only that time which cannot be devoted to any business? . .
. What foolish forgetfulness of mortality to postpone wholesome plans to the
fiftieth and sixtieth year, and to intend to begin life at a point which not
all have even attained!"
Seneca believed that we can live now, every day, can find our meaning and
joy at this time, not some other. Don't wait for happiness, he argued,
create it.
For the irony is, when retirement comes, people tend to look back and wonder
what became of the "good times." The remedy is to always remember that today
is the day you will be nostalgic about tomorrow. These are the "good old
days." Make them good before they get old.
Postponing happiness, however, isn't the only problem. People also lose much
of their lives seeking to gain the approval of others. They live their lives
for others, not in a charitable way that might bring mutual happiness, but
in a slavish way, putting their happiness in others' hands. They often worry
about what others might think and say.
Albert Ellis has written much on not worrying about what other people think.
So did the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius who, in his Meditations said:
Constantly observe who they are whose approval you seek, and by what
principles they are guided. For if you look to the sources of their opinions
and appetites, you'll neither condemn those offenses they give nor desire
the approval they withhold.
Elsewhere he added that one shouldn't listen to the opinions of all people,
but only those who we can respect.
Of course there are also those who we seek to impress, get even with, and
compete against. How much of our lives do we allow them to rob from us? And
among how many such people does each one of us distribute his or her life?
Seneca argues:
People do not allow anyone to seize their estates, and they rush to stones
and arms if there is even the slightest dispute about the boundaries of
their property, yet they allow others to trespass upon their life -- nay,
they them- selves even bring in those who will eventually possess it.
Clearly, then, efforts to live our lives by the measure of others turn us
away from ourselves. So, we would do well to choose with care the standards
by which we wish to live and the standard-bearers we wish to follow. If we
are finding life short, this is evidence that we have chosen wrongly and
might better reassess our goals, and perhaps even our values. It is so easy,
after a promising start, to become sidetracked and lose sight of our reasons
for doing what we do. Things that were, at first, means to worthy ends can
become ends in themselves. But these are not our ends, the ends we started
with. They are ends that take us away from ourselves and render the time we
really spend for ourselves shorter and shorter.

REBT is a therapy growing in popularity (thousands now practice it), but
also a very old one. It owes at least as much to the Stoic philosopher,
Epictetus, as to Sigmund Freud.

1988 Negative event 1:
James Schnabel's duplicity. Obsessed with proving all of the
markings are hoaXed.
1991 Negative event 2
Dave Bower and Douglas Chorley. "THE MEN WHO CONNED THE WORLD!"
With the help of the Murdoch international media. And the elite mainstreams
duplicity. Those two pathetic clowns were duped into their buffoonery, because
the crop markings were becoming a thorn in the side of the ruling and mainstream
elite. People were taking notice.
Negative event 3:
Bower and Chorley retired because the markings got too compleX and couldn't possibly
have been constructed by those two crop clowns. And their clown tools.
Along came a bunch of college boneheads to demo how the more comleX markings
were hoaXed. The WesseX Skepticks. They used real construction equipment to do
a live demo. Staging, garden rollers. Surveyor equipment....etc. Took them longer,
but the marking looked decent from the air. Albiet small. No more than 300.' At
ground level. Nothing but crap of the floor lay...
Today, the hoaxing clowns say they use only what Bower and Chorley used. Because
they could never carry into the field what the WesseX Skeptics did. So the tools of the
two fools is what they claim they use. A piece of string, a board, and a baseball cap
sighting device that was used to make the the rectangles and straight lines that were
appearing, shortly before the two buffoons retired (SIC). Some, three stalks wide.
And modern day hoaXing jackasses claim they construct every marking in 4 hours.
(The total length of darkness in the English Summer.) A self imposed rule that they
now stretch to twilight. 6 hours, for 3 crop clowns for the maX of 300 feet.
But when markings started to appear that were football field, and larger, in size. They
claimed 15 to 20 hoaXing jackasses in the field to complete a 1000 footer in 6 hours.
What the fuhk do they take me for...?
Negative event: 4
Team Satan and Teams of Satan. Now that hoaXing was firmly entrenched in the
psyche of the simple minded (unfortunately a majority on the planet) Jim Scnabel
had his dream team assembled. On the Team Satan web site. Which became the
Circle Makers website.

I made a decision to not force the shutoff under the bathroom sink.
I wanted to close the hot water side. I had a running leak from the faucet. I couldn't it get the
valve to turn. One hand, no movement. Two hands, no movement. A towel and one hand, no
movement. Two hands and a towel, no movement. I made a decision to take a pair of pliers
to the shutoff. But then I thought negatively; "What if I break it. Or break it off. It must be
rusted"
I put the pliers away and called a plumber. When he came into the house, I was to sign a
document that held me to a $415 minimum before he looked at, or touched anything. Okay. It
had to be done. The leak had to be fiXed. While he was getting his stuff ready, I told him about
the shutoff and went into the living room. if he couldn't get the shutoff to work, he would have
to shut the water off for the entire buildning. I had to put a notice on the bulletin bosrd 3 days
before the plumber would be here.
A minute or two later he eXclaimed; "I got the valve to close." I went running in and said; "great."
He used an adjustable wrench. He said you still have to give me a check for $415. I said, "get to
work and install the new faucet....."
My conclusion to not use the pliers. Was the wrong conclusion. Because of the negative thinking
of the valve breaking off and water gushing out.

I don't know until I see how it turns out
The night before I was a scheduled for a dentist appointment, I had a dream that I was
reclined in the chair. The woman who develops X-Rays came into the room carrying a
clip (vertically) with a white piece of 'paper' clipped to it, and asked, whoever it was
standing behind me; "What is this...?" I said: "Over eXposure.."
End of dream.....
The neXt day of the appointment. I had X-Rays taken by, what I think was an incompetent,
black hygienist. With a lousy bed side manner. She had a fuhking attitude. She took my X-
Rays. When they were developed the technician did and said eXactly what I dreamed. I
was so confounded I said nothing. My mouth dropped opened. The doctor, standing behind
me, said to her; "I'll be right there." The technician turned and walked out. The Doctor put
down her tools and left. When the dentist showed me my X-Rays. It wasn't a complete set.
At my neXt appointment I asked the technician if she remembered, on my last visit, coming
into the room and inquiring to the doctor; "What is this...?" She said, no.
I should have asked her, do you remember the black hygienist that worked on me at my last
visit...? That she would have remembered. And I could have proceeded to ask about what
the Doctor said to her in the development room. The black woman was the token yearly black
to work there. Diversity. I think she graduated with a 20 point advantage....
And they sicced her on me. Fuhking socialist Liberals. They have high grade morons going
to Higher Institutions of Learnig, and graduating as doctors, lawyers and dental hygienists.

Working in a jet engine plant isn't boring. I look at the parts before they
go into an engine. Have to take dimensions within 63 millionths of an inch
on some.
All kinds of gages to measure high speed rotating parts. I work for the
government. Gas turban and jet engines. I accept or reject parts for both.
New and spare parts that go into the Black Hawks...et.....al....
I inspected the first engine parts from a new outsourcing plant in MeXico.
One look, and I said, WHOA...! What the fuhk is this. The weld beading
was so fuhked up, I rejected every one of them. Finished up and went home.
Had a shower, smoked a joint, and got on here.
NeXt day, the first shift inspector said: "T, what the hell did you do last night?"
"What...?" I said. Where are the parts from MeXico. He said, the military
was in here. All in uniform. High ranking. Taking pictures and shaking their
heads. And they took the parts.
Now I have to shoot you....Harlow.....
Do you know what a gas turban engine is....?
A 'Least Square Circle'.....?
Bite me........

I smoke half to a whole joint a night. It's kept me off of liquor for

Ooops..going to watch All in the Family. Archie Bunker. A great American.....
Tells it like it is.....Spics.......
Then I'm going to bed....
Good morning, lettuce head........
I despise those who just leave the border wide open knowing that our way of
life will be squarely in the hands of the traitors. Our culture destroyed.
Islam is recruiting gang members. They're using AK47's in CA against the police.
And neXt, mortars. RPG's. Xplosives. Grenades. Shoulder launched heat seekers.
Those members don't give a schitt about human life or American values because
we have no more values. It's lost in political correctness and diversity. Spics, Niggurz
and Muslims. And they'll praise Allah when they hit the switch and blow up an Elementary
School. Or make a big kill by launching mortars at a shopping mall....
They can become very well organized like the hoaXers of the markings....
And carry out attacks at the same time around the country and/or the globe....
like the hoaXers.....
50 wild asses can infect themselves with Small PoX. Get on a 50 planes. Desitnation...?
As many major airports as possible. Get off the plane and go to movie theaters. Shoppng
