If the FI suddenly partnered up with us, I would think, it's influence, would be immediately apparent.
Despite popular misconceptions, no such sudden jump in capabilities is apparent.
Whilst on the subject of SI, I feel it should be pointed out that, selfishness, is the inviolable rule, in nature. Our genes, are so selfish that, they do,nt even care about us, as individuals,........,merely, the genetic line.
In this sense, |spirituality" could be viewed as anti-evolutionary.
A couple comments after reading this Serendip~!
First, I missed the post that said the FI "suddenly partnered up with us."
Also, I think that a distinction needs to be made between selfishness, as that of our genes, and self-importance.
And one more thing, I think, when looking at studies etc done on the human population, it should be noted that, while these studies may seem to have proven a thing to be true or untrue, sorcerers, as a rule, at least in my view, don't necessarily fall into the same category as the avg man and so these studies are pretty much irrelevant to us, that is, the same rules do not (always) apply.
Of course, if you do not consider yourself a sorcerer, then y ou are more than free to limit yourself to what the studies have shown to be real, true, or possible.
