Adventures in Magical Thinking

Pharisees and Jesus.
The difference between sacrificial, purity and giving, helping.

How people reason with purity.
Boundary monitarying, saliva in the cup

Similarity, the bed pen and lemonade
Because they do things reflexively this causes habits to pop out.
Jesus eating with the sinners, looks bad.

Once something is judged its hard to change back.
Repentence of sin.

Negativity nominance.
When a purity and polutant comes together the polutant is th strongest.
It makes sense with food, but when with people.
Like the. Pharisees as they see Jesus being "contanminated" by the sinners.

Contatc wuth Jesus purifies.


What does this have to do with my major?
We need to stop and think critically.
Think outside the box.

Adolf eichmann
Trivial, banal
Something trite, cliched

The problem with eichmann was that he never thought or imagine or see from another person's perspective.
He lived on cliches.

Evil comes from mindlessness.

We're here to overcome mindlessness.

Stanley milgram.
tested pain, by using normal ppl to administer them.
How far would they go?


Students,
Ask yourselves whether you would play the game?
To step back and look at the situation your going into?
That through critical thinking it can be done.
