IMO - none of these movements came together by chance. There was a reason for a "Time of Awareness" and "Level Skipping".

Hi kneebiter42,
Depends on why they did it. Suicide for selfish reasons to get back at someone verses terminal disease, one is acceptable the other not. Many young people who do it end up in a self-induced hell because they have to endure the pain they cause to those they left behind. Some are sent right back to earth instantly with a whole new situation to endure.
Those who do it for legit reasons are not penalized, besides no one is “judged”, we are not here to be judged, but to learn and have as much fun as we can squeeze out of this life---or not.
Fun is optional, learning mandatory

What if they do it out of depression? Because that's another thing that isn't necessarily the person's fault. Anyway, interesting to hear your answers!

My real question is, why are there so many replies to a post such as this? Didn't it deserve to die on impact? What a lot of good energy wasted here.

Forgive him Sleeper. He knows not what he says.

Would it be possible to appeal to ET to maybe send a few less serial killers our way? I feel that we have enough of them.
Could we negotiate a treaty :p You know, we make you look like the good guys in movies,
and in exchange, you don't keep sending serial killers here. :p

Don't many (if not most) serial killers have serious mental problems though? Like Richard Chase for example, he was completely delusional and insane and did terrible things to people. Is he really held accountable in the same way that a less insane person is?

I measure my responses to try and keep them in the somewhat acceptable zone.
What is sanity? Certainly not something prevalent here on earth---lol
Sanity is what the majority agree on; it’s a kind of click. In reality sanity is something that exists on other planets and other places than earth. We are all a bit touched down here; otherwise we wouldn’t be here---
Whether we like it or not all will be pardoned and released from this third rock. Age has nothing do with when we get off this rock; some are here a few weeks others are stuck here until they literally fall apart in some hellhole nursing home.
Now, there are some who are assigned the gruesome task of grim reaper like the person you mentioned above, but many chose that path out of shear hatred that accumulated in their souls, and two birds are taken care of in those situations---they act out their rage and in so doing perform a dreadful and perverse deed---in the minds of us humans.
Death is the bane of loved ones left behind but it’s freedom for the departed---for some anyway.

life is a never ending circle of the same thing---change---problem is change is elusive and never really happens.

Hi sleeper, OK, so life and all the things we perceve are elusive. Why is it so real to us?
Why do all of my friends and I agree about the reality of this illusion?
Why do history books agree about what we think is the past?
And why should it be important for us to learn lessons based on experiences that are elusive? Tks!
