What was the point of this post? Get it, get it? 0d, point? Ahhhh I'm hilarious.

...oh yeah. I missed that bit. So, whilst by my measuring, we are heading towards higher states of being, there already exists a highest state of being. So why is anything??? :storks: (the answer is: anything because everything and anything more than nothing)

Err... I guess it could be like... infinite dimensional space? Sort of relevant but I have this conception of a dimension that goes straight through a thing's center, like if you picture the centre of a sphere, this dimension lies completely in the centre but goes infinitely more inwards...

Well, no one is participating in the thread today, so I will post the answers.

That could just be an example of different approaches getting at the same thing, and relevant is the fact that a similar process is being described, and it is broken down in the natural way that the task is broken down... Either way, don't let that particular example detract from the main point...

I'll just mention that the "place" bit is a reference that only some users would get.

Also Sinny. I wish I didn't have to make a riddle, but here I go... (that was the first one, now for the second one) A place for a colour; a muller for a face.

I guess that at some point there would have to be perceptions... however, there can be pure/abstract judgement which I think would just reference the more a priori forms of the given function and needs no stimulus. However, the point of function order, from what I am understanding, is that in a...

From what I've been observing, everyone does things in a sequential order associated with their function order. So because you went external to internal to external to internal, and specifically Ne to Ti to Fe to Si, this reflects the ENTP function order. -- Also regarding your example of your...

Just did a quick survey of some of your posts and ENTP sounds very likely. To give an example, see this post: http://intpforum.com/showpost.php?p=568105&postcount=71 You start by describing an objective stimulus, and describing it in abstract terms, followed by a judgement concerning...

eventually you will learn that the answers are not there and that is where your journey begins

But you do think we do actually have an objective/absolute type, in like, reality, right rb? RIGHT? :eek:

INTJ, for example: The first paragraph is descriptive i.e. perception based, whereas the second is expressing judgements*, and they are extroverted judgements, and logical. The first paragraph is probably intuition rather than sensing, for whatever reason - like, deals with...

Science comes no where near giving a comprehensive picture of reality as experienced by humans (and probably the rest of life). It is therefore necessary to supplement the rationalist viewpoint with a spiritual one, or rather to have a mindset which captures both - and even then, I would say...

That's the/an ultimate challenge: finding a way to make it all seem worthwhile on a day-to-day basis. I would suggest first realising that such a thing is possible, and so to always keep in mind the light at the end of the tunnel, and the beacons spread sporadically throughout it. Can I say that...

I generally eat 2 meals a day and it's the same sort of food at each. I don't eat like cereal or whatever.

this must be the thing that that one guy i asked if i had found yet and i was like wut

YOU RUINED IT, COGNISANT, YOU RUINED IT! :mad: (I took it to be a "you da man!" thing)

I would say this is pretty accurate. I let loose in real life too at times, but that's becoming less of a thing. I would say that a lot of my posts that I made last year were faked (not done necessarily for entertainment*... there was a "deeper" process regarding self-development) but that my...

had quite a laugh at this :P I get out of bed just waiting to see if I offended anyone the day before! -- As for OP, you've made too few posts thus far for me to have much to go off of, but INTJ wouldn't surprise me. -- As for how I have confirmed my type for myself, I use the principle...

What's the difference between space being infinite and distance being infinite? I believe that things are essentially infinite, in the sense that we can never see everything, but that as things get infinitely distant (in whatever sense of the word) from us, they become infinitely unimportant...

Ok I have an avatar now

Given the high level concepts you regularly bring up, I would guess you're somewhere in the top 1%, which would be what, 140?

Cognitive functions apply to pretty much anything we do. Posts may not reveal too much of our personality, but what they do hypothetically reveal is the order in which we use our functions. So, what I try to do is map the sections of a post to a cognitive function order. It works in theory but...

Our own minds reflect the mind of God in a certain way, but so does the mind of an atom. See what the two have in common and you will get a clue as to how the mind of God works. God is whole and unified; its paradox is that it is all of existence yet has the universal drive to go further, and so...

Yep dat's me! I am smarter than everyone but oh so polite and modest. My mind is so next-level that I have special access to the spirit world and intuitively understand quantum principles. The mental health system is evil and is oppressing me for following the shamanic path.

I'm not saying you can't know what your type is - I'm referring to the kinds of quizzes that are purported to be able to determine type. It's certainly possible to determine it though, For example Pod'lair has developed methodology for it, although it is to be noted that they disagree with...

Who are you? (in like, the deep kind of way) Maybe they are mice. Who are you to decide what's a mice and what's not a mice!!! Micist!! HOLY SHIT!!!! THEY ARE HERE!!!

In general, the method of "do X at time Y" doesn't really appeal to me; I've had psychologists offer the same advice. And yes, there is something to do with the medication with this... but it's definitely that Se in general is being rejected. Is it being rejected because the medication makes...

I don't think alcohol and cigs really require more to get the same effect... my smoking rate has stayed basically the same for the past few years, and yeah there is tolerance with alcohol, but it's not that drastic. However, the novelty wears off pretty quick, and it just becomes a crutch...

What sort of things could I replace it with? As much as I know that smoking is damaging my health, the rush that I get is so addicting, and so... easy to obtain. I feel that it is because I am weak that I find it hard to quit. If I weren't weak, I would do things like exercise, but I've not...

I seem lately as though I am beginning to reject my Se. I am not including the Se element in my posts as often as I used to, I am not listening to Se dominant music and enjoying it like I used to, and I am becoming very negative towards things like alcohol and smoking which I tend to enjoy...

It is probably better to do things in a different way rather than partitioning, but I just wish to show people that such a method exists. And if you can see the mode, then it can allow for a way of looking at which function the person is using at the forefront at the time. However, I have only...

I don't think it's necessarily emotion or empathy based? I see it as a focus on other people, whether they are physically present or not, or not even real people. It is fundamentally social, and when I engage in Fe on my own, I am basically engaging in a conversation in my head as though it...

Originally: I could tell that I was an introvert, dominant T or N, and Ti/Fe user, and as I read more about Ni I related to it more and more, and could begin to see that I had auxiliary Fe use, but that it was suppressed by my environment, or rather, the way I had come to interact with my...

What lol? The basis is in our psychology, how the brain is wired. Our psychology works by having a dominant function, auxiliary etc. as described by function order. If you think that it's all based in things like tests, and isn't actual reality, then yeah, maybe give up on it. \(o.O)/

What, you don't wanna admit that your primary method of reasoning is social rather than mechanical? Ni seems to be associated with "genius", probably because Ni types value intelligence the most (or do they?), just like any type is the most X where X is what the type values the most.

What lol? I have practically the same number as you and I've been on the site since 2010. I don't get it.

u wot m8? the tests are BS xD

Yeah sometimes I just state my view without explaining it. The pseudo-science term was specifically because, I think it was Karl Popper, that said that such a view is pseudo-scientific, but here's what I think the argument could consist of: - everything an organism does is done to increase...

I might be assuming I could do it out of natural intelligence whereas it probably requires a more educated strategy to actually do well. I mean, I'm not gonna try and play chess (and expect to win) with someone who can actually play just because I'm "smarter" than them. Either way, the idea of...

So you don't think I'm really that good?

Well, I have the potential to be the best... but I'm a bit reluctant to try for some reason. If you think you'd wanna send me I'll think it over. I'll just say, that in the second mafia game where you, rb and cheese were mafia... I had written down on a piece of paper pretty much who mafia was...

The idea that things like empathy and altruism are selfish is pseudo-scientific as fuck. May as well say that every single thing is selfish, because it comes from a self, and that view gets us absolutely no where lol.

I'm still looking for someone who can see that this approach actually works. I've seen enough to know that function order manifests as an order, but applying it to reading others' types is a more difficult matter. So, once again: Divide the text into sections, as paragraphs do Connect each...

I also vote TMB, for this cinematic masterpiece. And in my timezone this thread was posted at 10:10 which means 10 out of 10.
