The personal/testimonial incarnates abstract/transcendent knowledge in the embodied, experienced event.

Applying @jordanbpeterson 's understanding of "belief" as what is enacted. "Act as if". What one believes is what they do. What ideas they incarnate/embody.
This applies to corporate bodies, too.
A text in & of itself is meaningless. This is faith issue: texts or persons.
In my worthless opinion, the misunderstandings come from this "what the text says" vs "how it's lived out".
You see this most starkly, when after Jonathan explains how baptists and other protestants would go to orthodox countries, start their own churches, proclaim their versiin of the gospel and to act as if the people there were not Christians. Gavin responds with something like "you have to see what the writings of protestantism says and not judge it on what you saw."
Meanwhile, Jonathan has been trying to explain to gavin that you can't base everything off of a few texts. You\nHave to base it on how it has been lived out before and afterwards , as well.

Being an icon is being a conduit for the will of God to be manifest.
It’s to participate in being (and that which is coming into being).

When Rogan talks about tech that enables us to read minds as something that will change the world, it makes me think that he doesn’t understand anything about the mind or language.

My son and I built a little bike ramp. Put it out on the street and there was, in short order over a dozen kids with bikes were out on the street; many of whom don’t often come outside. Build something and change the world in big and little ways!!! 🔥

Forgiveness is "beyond" Good & Evil, while not a denial of wrongs endured.
Eucatastrophe requires catastrophe.
Transformation of enemies into forgivers is the "field beyond good and evil". It's not moral nihilism.

I know nothing about the UFO disclosures. & I feel awesome about it.
Almost all big news is a psyop, mind control, propaganda, lies (or a distortion of the truth). News outlets have been using all media for control, not art.
Pay attention to what you pay attention to.

“Authority” that denies conscience is authoritarian power.

Each and every person is a Multiverse. But only the possibilities that are actualized are real, for you.
