you have to be very careful when introducing the truth to persons who previously never heard about the truth because they will reject it an make you look as the one who is brainwashed when indeed it's them who is far gone from the truth. you have to drop a little bit of knowledge at a time an wait a while to let that sink in before you advance to the next step of enlightenment .

That sounds really condescending. And it doesn't really help me at all, but thanks anyways.

condescending? but why? It's a simple thing that anyone can do. Have you tried it?

In regards to the question I was asking about how to help wake up brainwashed people, and it seems like you imply I'm the one who is more brainwashed by what you posted which suggests there's a plank in my eye and "specks" in the eyes of the people I'm trying to help. How do you not see that as condescending? They are the brainwashed ones, they are the ones with planks in their eyes. I'm the one trying to help, and I'm not saying I'm perfect or all knowing, but.. In this case, they are the ones with planks in their eyes, not "specks", they are more blind in this specific case I'm referring to. And if they are not, then I'm not referring to them. I'm referring to the brainwashed people. If you're suggesting I'm more brainwashed and I need to figure that out first before I can help the ones who are "less" brainwashed, then I just don't understand and yes I think that is condescending. But hey.. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, maybe I read that ancient quote wrong, maybe you didn't mean it like that.

Isn't that condescending?

Yes it is. I'm not denying that I can be condescending. Though you seem to be denying you were being such, and now you're obfuscating and misdirecting away to something else.
If you're going to be condescending against me, maybe I won't respond in this manner if I think you're being fair or honest or honorable in your judgements.

I think my point is made.
I am not going to argue with you. But take this advice from people much wiser than myself, like Jesus: If you want to change the world, you have to change yourself first.

I think only you know what the point that was made is. Cause I definitely don't get the point you were making.
We all change the world all the time just by being here. I don't so much want to change the world, I want to help people and animals and sometimes that requires being honest and saying tough things when people earn it by their choices.
And you cite Jesus, whether he truly existed or not he was no stranger to strong language. So..To berate me for doing what Jesus did and then telling me to be more like Jesus, is.. A bit contradictory.
“You blind fools!” he shouts during a chapter-long rant (Matthew 23:17). He calls them hypocrites, snakes and vipers, everything — as the saying goes — but a child of God. We all know that insulting people is incompatible with Christian teaching. But Jesus actually did it quite a bit."

By inviting them to watch other sources of new, but if someone does not want to change, there is no helping them, but if they are your family you have to make sure they listen to you and guide them very patiently so they can understand whats really happening.

Well said, somehow we need to make learning about the world more popular than mindless entertainment..

THE NEWS ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR RATING, SO THEY JUST GIVE BAD NEWS EVERYDAY BECAUSE THATS WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO SEE. FEAR IS IN EVERYBODY MINDS AND WE ALL THINK THE WORLD IS GOING TO END TOMORROW, BUT THEN WE WAKE UP AND EVERYTHING IS FINE. IF YOU FEAR SOMETHING PREPARE FOR IT SO THAT WHEN IT COMES IT DOES NOT SEEM LIKE A BIG DEAL. THATS WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO LEARN THE REAL TRUTH BECAUSE THEN YOU WILL NOT BE PARALYZE WHEN SOMETHING WRONG HAPPENS FOR REAL, YOU WILL EXPECTED IT AND YOU WILL HAVE PLAN TO MAKE THE ACTIONS THAT SECURE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Agree with most of that except, I don't think people really want to hear bad news all the time.. I think the people in power want us to be inundated with all that all the time though. Thanks for your thoughts!

Produce, produce, produce. Just keep out competing the old dinosaur. Not that it is easy, but I think that is the way. Create consistent quality media.
Don't forget to support others that do it.

Good advice! I'm working on what you mentioned myself and have been for a lil while now, though I don't reach a lot of people yet.. And maybe I never will, but.. I do reach a few people here and there and that makes it worth it to me cause you never know how that could ripple outwards.
