Another "Indigo Child" Thread

But...you can't replicate gold-pressed latinum.

Not with a food replicator, but you can replicate gold-pressed latinum with a gold-pressed latinum replicator.

Now you're just making things up.

Also, the replicators used for food can replicate most anything.

One of my children was an Indigo Child.
Soap, water, ink pad confiscated - cured!

would the parents of an indigo child be maroons do you think? Can't stop thinking about ice cream now, Ben and Jerry's must do an Indigo Wonder?

I see it as a potentially harmful hobby. More special snowflakes and kids growing up with a distorted self-image.

@Fnord: haven't you worked out yet that this was a pointless poll for you (personally) to make, because your aim may have been to rubbish the subject (maybe you ran out of stuff in the PPR ) but it looks like a significant number of respondents are claiming indigo status just to annoy/confound you...

Therein lies the moral of the tale. "Never sneer lest ye be sneered at".

I have always been an Indigo Child. Since an early age, I could relate to people's feelings in a way my peers could not. I was wise beyond my years and some adults would even listen to my advice. Although I have always been diferent from the other children, people began to accept me for my obviously superior knowledge and charisma.

Things became clearer once I discovered my true calling: as an Indigo Child, I was destined to use my abilities to help lesser men. After I realized that, I began a journey of self-discovery to improve myself for the good of mankind. During my travels, I have met a very wise and ancient monk who revealed to me what I had suspected for as long as I can remember:

I am the Avatar.

Fnord, you state extraordinary claims extraordinary evidence.

What is the criteria for something to be extraordinary?

What if I see something as extraordinary and you do not and vice versa?

Can you give an objective criteria for something to be extraordinary?

Can you tell me how it is possible to even develop this critieria if what is extraordinary is based upon subjective interpretation?

Why can't something be possible to exist without anyone understanding it?

Why can't something exist without leaving collectible evidence?

Why can't evidence for something exist but is open to subjective interpretation?

Therein lies the problem with your thinking. You're forgetting the human element in science. Scientists and skeptics can have biases as well. They have their own fears as well.

One of the qualities of a psuedoskeptic is "Cannot think in terms of possibilities, but sees their paradigms as fixed and constant."

Fnord, you see your own paradigm as fixed and constant and not subject to questioning or change at all.

Part of being a true skeptic is one who "Applies critical examination and inquiry to all sides, including their own."

Whirlingmind and I on the other accept there are possibilities and we critically examine and inquire all of the sides. Shoot, I'm always 2nd guessing myself.

Whirlingmind and I, "Accept that there are mysteries and revels in trying to understand them." There are things in our existence we don't grasp nor understand yet. Let's try to understand them. Wouldn't you want to know if a ghost, indigo child , UFO actually exists? The bible and other books I believe mention unicorns as well. Did they truthfully exist? Were they some kind of dinosaur? If they did exist, where did they go? If they did not exist, where did the legend come from?

For vampires, it may be based upon some truth. There are people with a certain disease who need human blood. They receive regular blood transfusions today.

Whirlingmind and I both View science as a tool and methodology, not as a religion or authority to be obeyed. We understand the difference between the scientific process and the scientific establishment. The scientific establishment are still made up of human beings with their own agendas, biases and their own interpretation of things. The peer review process is a part of this establishment Fnord. They don't go purely by science but by politics as well. Certain experiments may pass peer review or fail it not because it truthfully fails or pass but because of political agendas. If there was proof or disproof of God, would certain politicians allow it either way or cover it up?

Are some of the claims being made against Randi's paranormal challenge really true? Fnord, can you refute what this article says against Randi's Paranormal Challenge? Is it ever possible for James Randi to be biased himself and have his own agenda?

I believe myself to be of average intelligence and I still make mistakes. I have a 98 IQ. Some of you are intellectual giants compared to me. I am prone to lapses in judgment and my own biases as well. I just experienced this a few minutes. I had to give my two younger brother in laws their medication. I carefully read the label on the bottle. Guess what? I gave him one more extra pill then I should've had. I thank goodness he pointed this out and questioned my judgment on this. I thank goodness he second guessed me. He is 16 by the way. Isn't it possible for scientists to make simple mistakes like this as well? If a person can make a simple mistake such as this then shouldn't it be possible for people in general to make complicated mistakes and have lapses in judgment including those who do the peer reviews?

I know I'm not the most sharpest knife in the drawer maybe this is why I ask so many questions.

That is nonsense.

I can't believe people would believe in this.... And makes me really sad too... I feel anxiety because I was treated like and Indigo once.. And I was worried to be fitted in another thing so people would mistake me for something I'm not like that time I was mistaken... No why it's just too much pressure!! !

Hello Sanduru, don't be sad, laugh instead.

Sorry I just couldn't control myself...

When I was treated like an Indigo I remember being confused for almost a week and crying for 2 hours... I was really frustrated....

Now if I had a family with these beliefs I don't know what I would do because maybe I wouldn't have a diagnosis and would feel really trapped into a cage...

That's because I believe this is nuts, it woud be a very difficult situation for people with Autism having to handle with relatives and fit in a description that isn't exactly a help for them. They wouldn't be able to receive the understanding required for their needs...

I can't joke because I can't understand why people make up these things that would affect a lot of individuals severely...

It's not a medical diagnosis and so you can't be affected by it in any real way...it's like someone believing people with red hair have super powers...it can't be proven and it is not accepted by the establishment so, try not to worry.

Indigo child is a new age belief and I don't know, it's too esoteric for me to really judge it...but to me it's another way for people to feel they are chosen or special.

Don't let people slap labels on you, if you feel it doesn't fit, ignore it...

I feel pressure putting myself in the place of people who might be autistic and have a family with these kinds of belief so they wouldn't receive help or treatment, living stuck without being understood.

I've known of families that don't even go to doctors because it's 'unnatural'.

When that cult gave me the "Child of the Seventh Chakra" label, I had much the same reaction (I was much younger, then). At first, I thought "Wow! I'm special!" Then I asked for guidance and training, and they quoted me tuition costs for one month's training that would have put me through two years of junior college!


Because they're greedy, illegitimate, sociopathic, anal sphincters that would just as soon exploit a relative for money as they would call a child ugly, stupid, and useless.

I bet that they drown kittens, too.
