Thankyou so much for this and your many other posts that mean I'll probably need to take a decade off to read all the things you've sparked and reignited my interest in. This one's particularly facinating.
Hmmm, posts instead of AMP? I think in many cases our posts do cause connectedness to emerge, and that this is because individual posts trigger a [compassion] receptor within us that causes us to respond to that message and connect with the author. These are recognised by the emotion that simply pours from the words on the screen and where the self becomes a secondardy consideration.
Other forms of post do in fact have a pace-maker. Usually you it would appear :-) People come together but in a slightly different way, an exciting, stimulating and engaging way but a way in which each individual still holds on to their own opinion and individual position. There is sometimes convergence toward a better and more common understanding.
I guess you could say that I believe that the existence of emergence in people is an absolute fact.
Thanks again alexandra_k
