A quest for a new think-tank from the brightest DTV members

[Gonzo63 Profile]

As interesting as it may seem, it is the atheists-only rule I would have a problem with. Now I'm not part of any religion what-so-ever, and I am drawn to a higher power that does exist in the universe. I know its there. I have felt this power. And simply subscribing to science is within itself a religion. Religion is an instrument of control. Science tries really hard to distinguish itself from it, but the practice is the same. Find those that will follow, tell them the rules, and chastise those that break them.

So it cannot be a think tank. A think tank is made of up of individual members drawn together to find solutions or truths. The need to disagree on points is indeed necessary to find it. If all the members are exactly the same it is merely a clique. And no truth will be found.

So I guess I'm out.

But you see, this site is a think tank. We challenge each others view to find truth. It is in exploring our differences that will achieve this. I think John would have agreed with me.

why are people so scared of rednecks we all arent stupid like some people thinck we are.i have a very high iq so i think i can carry on an intellgent converation.

Then why can't you punctuate or spell correctly? Not hating, just asking.

Has anyone heard of an integrated design charette(or process) IDP its basically a think tank that includes all community stakeholder together to have a quasi educated brainstorm drawing out the pros and cons, wants and needs...throws out the rule book...no ideas crazy...its an amazing process...I was fortunate enough to be a team player in idps for net zero housing, a net zero faCtory and eco industrial park...its amazing how at the end of the process..some of the cons turn into assets..and some of the wild ideas become viable...never underestimate the brilliance that lays within...there is very little we can't overcome if we put our heads toghether...and drop some of the brash ego talk...expansive thinking requires taking your blinders entirely off...

I find it funny that this thread is not only 3 and a half years old, but that the OP hasn't even logged in since last year.

No kidding. But I did like the OP. Whether he is truly passed or not, he was/is a good person in my books. Hence the bump

However, the OP could have gotten a new name and avatar.

The OP never wished for a genuine "Think Tank" but a club of people that agreed with him on every subject.

No hope in expanding your knowledge base in that.

Your Marklar is wise and true...


Although... "officially" forming any type of group now days only raises flags with the internet po-po...


And we don't want "the man" shutting down something they are already thinking about shutting down because we started "forming groups"....



Next thing you know we will be wearing headbands and doing virtual hits...



No no no... we *must* not form any kind of group...

To dangerous...



Think of all of the virtual avatars...their little baby avatars...who will login to take care of them?
