A babbling brook flows wherever there is the least resistance. If this is to be a truly safe place it needs to follow the same kind of course. By truly safe I mean a place where one can let his thoughts flow without worry of offending someone, and everyone would choose to let everyone express what flows, encouraging the psycho within to babble without. Sentences, thoughts, words, or whatever he needs the world to see or know. What better place to broadcast when you feel that need? I see way too much fear, pain, neglect the way it is now.
Now if I was to let my own brook babble, http://scriptures.lds.org/en/dc/134 would flow out right now. Why? Because it is something I just read and it is still sitting there in my head, and when I read something that teaches me, I have a burning desire to let someone else read the same. That is the psycho side of me coming out, or the part I can't seem to hold back.
I realize some brooks babble way too much, and flood the lower ground, but if let alone it will generally take care of itself. Have you ever seen a flood plain or a dry river bed? They sit empty, patiently waiting.
Why would anyone build a house on a flood plain? It seems to me psycho babble is a flood plain, with many little tributaries. Why not open it up for a few weeks and see what happens? You know there will at some point be a flood, but surely is has been structured by now to take care of itself. There are enough good people to take care of one another, and if some one comes with the intent to be obnoxious, or erupts with foul language, report and remove.
I look for answers in the scriptures, and this is the first one that popped up just now. Gen. 19: 17
17 ¶ And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
That works. If anyone gets caught in a flood, escape fast.Psycho Babble. Babbling Brook. What happens if you take measures to prevent the flood? PBC, Blocking. Dammed up waters will break. There must be an escape.
1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.Did God inspire you to create Psycho Babble? Those who believe in God probably think He led them to this place. Those who don't found it some other way. The only one who is capable of thinking like everyone is god himself. Not you, not me, not anyone. I have given you some scripture guidelines to read on how to govern, and for some strange reason, I think there is an application here.
Is a block like jail or excommunication?
