Reaction to a video



  Here's is a link to a question I posed to brave AI with regards to the beam and the mote.

  To explain further, it is a reaction to a Mindplicit video linked here.

  So, by showing this to an audience here, am I making a mistake of trying to be understood?

  I say NO. The real lesson here is that everyone shares this fault, as the video says. However, knowledge of it does not mean that the effort is futile. If it was universally understood, then perhaps a check can be placed upon the universal tendency toward hypocrisy, and a chance at better outcomes.

  And if it doesn't work? Likely still, it probably WON'T work. Too many people will reject this because the EASIER way is to be the hypocrite. The harder way is the better way.

  That harder way would be to follow what Jesus said. The road to hell is paved with those would always seek the easy way.

  The response from the hypocrites would be that they are doing this "harder way" already.

  But are they really? That is the message of the video. It says something like all folks won't, and even if you DO, you will still fall short. That's true because of the human condition to be imperfect. Actually, the video DIDN'T say that exactly, I added a bit of comment upon it.

  I'll endeavor to not fall into the trap of despair. That would be even worse. So, I will continue.

  Then I'm probably "wrong" about saying that I'm not trying to explain myself.

  If so, I'd rather be "wrong" than right. The "right" ones are the hypocrites. I'd rather not be one of those.

  All the while, I may well be the hypocrite after all. Ok, then so be it. Prove me wrong, and I will consider it. I will because I accept that I'm not perfect. I've been wrong before, and I could be wrong now. It wouldn't be a surprise to me if I am wrong. But I won't be easy to convince. lol
