Creating our own realities

And herein lies the "dark road" that ultimately leads to something like the philosophy of fascism, or worse.... Erhardism has two major philosophic threads woven together, one, to my thinking, is benign, it it their [b:d4c580fd94] "make a difference" stance [/b:d4c580fd94].... the other thread, more closely associated with occultism and weirdo language philosophy, is the [b:d4c580fd94] "each and every person intends their reality into being" stance [/b:d4c580fd94] .... and here is the grand flaw, the blow up in your face flaw, with this half assed theory... at least the way they go about teaching it.... they make the assumption, or perhaps they're too dumb or complacent to sit down and scrutinize what they're talking about, that each and every individual is equally endowed with the power to "intend reality" ... in their model, the mentally retarded is indistince from the corporate CEO, yet, common sense tells us that some, by virtue of their DNA, or their good fortune, are in substantially different positions of "creating reality" than others .... so you see, what this can be read as saying is that each person [i:d4c580fd94] deserves to be where he is because this is what he really intended .... or worse anyone in a position of power over other people, no matter how corrupt, how brutal, how indifferent to the consequences of that power, got there through successful intending [/i:d4c580fd94] .... so ultimately you have a massively elitist, might makes right, "your life if God's plan for your life" ... almost medieval view of how social relations should work....
Somehow these two major social postions manage to co-exist in their thought processes as an [b:d4c580fd94] unstable mixture [/b:d4c580fd94] of fundamentally incompatible beliefs, as if they are arguing for the will to serve and the will to power at the same time.........
