it's been a while since i last posted (about 2 years) since that time i've studied Tom's idea's carefully. After the birth of my son back in august its been quite difficult finding a way to express these idea's to close friends and family members, trying to find people open to these ideas is not easy, as i am sure readers will have experienced. after studing Tom's ideas i have found inside a foundation for the way i express my idea's to others. I am far from a big TOE disiple but i have found some great logic in his words. since becoming a father it seems that answers can lie in the strangest of places.there is no real point in this post just call it an update. Damon.

tom's theory probably scares most people, especially if they are religious. the thought of leaving your body might seem evil to some, as if we are flying around in our soul-bodies like a ghost, dabbling in things forbidden to us. at the very least, people will probably find the ideas in MBT as too weird to be plausible.

fortunately i have good friends and family who, although they might not fully agree, are polite and tolerant to my views. i also live near metropolitan city with a lot of progressive citizens -that probably helps. i can not imagine how difficult it would be to live in the bible-belt and have the opinions that i have at this time.

i think people will be more conducive to your beliefs if they see how you love your family and conduct your life in a moral way. i highly respect people like that and i'd be more prone to listen to what they have to say.

keep up the good work :)

There is no particular need to discuss this with others, unless you encounter someone who would benefit from it....talking about it with others is most likely to have a selfish motive

Other centeredness is a universal language that everyone understands
