Thinking behavior - analyzing opinions and how they are developed with specific examples

 Specific Examples of Mental Thought Processes

    Thinking is a part of our behavior, also governed by the same physical laws our physical body is. I am currently performing thought experiments to isolate variables of thinking behavior.

    The purpose is to defeat conservative ideas.

Types of thought processes:

  • Reflection on experience
  • Judge + conclusion implied words
    • usually adjective that carry emotional weight, such as beautiful or stupid
      • When calling someone beautiful that is one's way of expressing it via verbatim, when one calls someone else stupid, what really happens is - is the person who is calling the other person stupid that feels this way towards them, so in reality, the person who was judged according to a set of applied criteria and concluded as "stupid'
    • remember to when your English teacher would make you write a conclusion paragraph summarizing why you think the criteria in the meat paragraphs were justifying the conclusion
    • All justifications comes from (shared) human feelings
      • justifications are literally feelings. This is what enables a feeling of homeostasis amongst each other, excluding psychiatric patients.
    • This is where I derive my conclusion of: no one who takes the time to think will end up with a dumb conclusion
  • Considering why
    • When applying a set of criteria - ex. dogma, justification - 
  • Focus
    • On an idea or a goal
    • The goal is identifying the idea
    • Consideration of certain physical qualities to come to a certain conclusion for some particular goal
      • If someone tells you they have no goal or purpose in pursuing their goal, that is an indication of unawareness of one's own behavior and programming and how the world affects their senses.
    • What factors or qualities or characteristics do you consider to come to the conclusion of identifying this [organism] as [insert name here]
      • Basically, remember what you learned back in pre-school?
      • Usually an oversimplification logical fallacy
  • Perspective = mentally use
    • How we identify factual information based on a set of applying criteria and concluding is called an opinion
      • Yes, technically, identifying an organism as a human being is an opinionated thought process since you are emphasizing certain characteristics of this organism by referring to it as a human being.
        • This is an example of a "hidden," rather overlooked thought process. It is what leads to opinions forming instead of facts forming.
        • by emphasizing certain characteristics of the enviornment, you are now forming an opinion based on the way you identify a particular object/being. You have been taught to identify things based on certain charsteristics in preschool.
    • Perspective = goal in identifying a fact. How you identify a factual theoritical situation is a perspective.
      • What factors are considered from a factual environment to come at a conclusion. Identifying/thinking is a process where you consider certain physical qualities to identify something as such. 
  • By thinking pro-life thoughts you are not considering why one is "moral" to begin with - rather just being dogmatic.
    • No rational person would come to a pro-life conclusion if they completely comprehend the reasoning behind human behaviors
  • Theory: all actions are motivated by a certain level of conditioning out of distraction of curiosity, fear, desensitizing, normalizing new-goals, focus in identifying enviornment a certain way, focus on identifying goals via enviornment
  • Think of people as a part of their enviornment, not apart from it - this will help you understand the cause and effect of your feelings
    • human beings are a part of nature, we must take care of human beings
    • Feelings are what initiate thoughts - without this, we wouldn't even be thinking. Yes, curiosity is a feeling. Therefore, feelings do indeed matter.
  • adjective = measurement of one's own feelings
    • adjectives are pointless without the criteria being explicitly explained. For example, person A calling person B small wouldn't make sense without the criteria for smallness being below average of below a certain height. For example, I can call a 6 foot person small, when a 5'7' person might think of that person as tall, or at least taller. This is proof that all perspective depends on physical stimulation
  • How does it affect your 5 senses?
  • What if we had no feeling?
    • This proves that feelings matter, all of the time
  • All feelings come from an abuse of trust
  • everything makes sense even if it does not you just don't understand it
    • For example, if you feel confused - yes, confusion is a feeling - it is because: 
    • even when a situation seems confusing or illogical, there is likely an underlying explanation or reason that could make sense if you were able to fully understand all the factors involved; essentially, it suggests that the lack of clarity often stems from a lack of knowledge or perspective, not necessarily from the situation itself being inherently nonsensical.
  • Feelings indicate mental limits
  • "know how you will respond to certain experiences" is just another way of saying be aware of your programming
    • tolerating presence of
  • i can't tell you what to think or feel directly
    • indirect communication
    • body language
  • What mental what variable needs to change?
    • cause of feeling
  • All feelings derive from physical sources
  • People don't just develop opinions out of nowhere, it can be explained by how someone learned this particular opinion
    • This can be used to explain how educated people tend to be liberal because when you look at the facts unbiasedly instead of using God, Magic, Free Will to describe human nature, you tend to look at things differently, more in accordance with how reality actually works.
  • metacognition
    • taking the time to identify one's own current describing feelings describing mental processes
    • Also knowing how one will react / respond in certain situations
  • (peer) pressure
    • correlation enviornment to decision making
  • Decision made for us before we realize / become aware of it:


Think of experiences in terms of this: As a teacher, what experiences would you want your students to make them think about mathematical calculations or [insert any topic here]?
