Feel free to have your philosophical or other-gotten psychological framework slammed down by yours truly

psychology was created by illuminati to sow confusion among the gullible masses

the truth is that we dont have brains

inside our head is where all the water that you drink is stored

Good try but unfortunately you're fucking retarded. :/ Sorry though!!!

Usually when people state that they know the "truth" they have some philsophical/ psychological stance asserted from which to evaluate their validity in communal understanding!
Unfortunately, you're too pleb for this and can't consider someone else's assertion, hahaha let alone make your own. Sorry!

Thanks for bumping though :33333

Er wait you're my protege right?

Sorry to acknowledge your inferior inquiry, but do so in an acceptable format and you'll have my way :P

There is no not. To imply it is not real is to toil with and accept at one time it was real.

Most psychology deals with strengthening of the ego, not destroying the ego.

Show me a man that is empty and I'll show you one that has been filled.

http://www.emeraldbible.com/documents/Phil2_5-8.pdf

1. Flesh says, “I am acceptable because I am beautiful and attractive”
2. Flesh says, “I am acceptable because I am wise, wealthy, or strong”
a. Gospel humility is the forgetting of the flesh, like a body part that is functioning
normally. You don’t notice a body part until it doesn’t work correctly, until
there’s something wrong with it.
b. Your flesh does the same thing: it is always drawing attention to itself, because
it has something incredibly wrong with it, about how it looks, how it was
treated, how it feels.

psychology makes one think more of others, it's inherently humble, beeyotch

hey I've read that before! I like it.

I thought you were gonna post this when I read the beginning of your post:

http://www.theonion.com/articles/psychology-comes-to-halt-as-weary-researchers-say,36586/

No, but if I had seen it, I would have posted it. I completely forgot the Onion existed! Now I know what I'm doing for the next hour or so...

By the way, psychology has to be real. It has to be! Otherwise, I'm just a cheaper, in-person version of a 1-900 number!

*sobbing uncontrollably* I won't let myself go down like Miss Cleo..

(I swear to Smeg, if you're from the US and not old enough to get that reference, I really will cry)

Smegma? OMG. You're so vulgar, rambunctiously even. Well, smegma is coming for you to cash in on your oath and make you weep.

Wait, "Yellow"? ewwwwwww

The question or statement is nonsense.

The same as "is number real?"

That's what we call it "concept". It's a abstract concept to store/ descript/ make/ create the abstract thing, or make huge real things into small and easy-understand abstract concept.

According to wiki:
Psychology is an academic and applied discipline that involves the scientific study of mental functions and behaviors

And all of its relative concept are real. It exist for its purpose.

Psychology is far too subjective to be concrete. Pop-psychology is by far the worst offender.

I think he's wrong. Everyone I know enjoys solitude and social interaction to varying to degrees. Why should balance be off-limits? Who's to say Mike isn't himself balanced? Can we measure his extroversion with a ruler, a stopwatch or a scale? Mike isn't an ambivert only because he doesn't identify as one.

OrLevitate, what a totally useless question. What on earth do we have to gain from indulging in this sort of mental masturbation?

It is an absurd topic and that is precisely why it is worth talking about. Most people don't give this kind of topic a second thought which is why it needs to be discussed imo. However obvious the answer appears to be, there is something worth mentioning why it is obvious or even absurd. For all we know there is a deeper underlying message that the OP is trying to convey and discussing the topic may shed some light on the meaning behind the message. Who knows, I may just be pleasantly surprised. I actually think the obscure sometimes has more to say about reality than the most rational ideas.

First, yes people DO give these sorts of things a second thought. I've already followed a similar line of reasoning before, and it lead nowhere. Why it lead nowhere is almost completely obvious to me now: Ti without Ne can offer no real insight into anything.

there is a deeper underlying message that the OP is trying to convey

So why no clarification? The way it looks to me is the OP is hoping to make a point, but doesn't know what it is yet.

There is no point. that is the point. I'd argue but I haven't slept in over 36 hours for no apparent reason.

I don't believe that. Simply because it is exactly in character for an INTP to ask such nebulous questions.

I clicked that psychology is not real. It maybe something of a phenomena, but our brain is a dynamic system that we study as a philosophy. Ego, superego, id, subconscious, conscious, visual cortex, neural connections. Its all just not real. Its all just nothing. What we really have is a head full of matter and water and each neuron is a electricplant that fires signals that arent even real. What is real is our brain is out there. Its not in the head. Its inbetween those little neural "connections". If you understand what I am saying you will understand.

AND DONT CALL ME LUNATIC!

Well...
On the level it works it does not give exact answers. Anyways it gives some approximate predictability.

There are great manipulators out there. They know (at least some level) some patterns and some of us would like to call it psychological understanding.

[I can say that I'm pretty good at predicting how I'm going to come across with my verbal mastery after some subliminal mind games. However my manipulation abilities are well hidden and rarely used.]


Qualifies as science these days? Nope. Those papers have more holes than brain of GW Bush or cheese. Even then if you can critically integrate the information to your own internal system of human behaviour, it becomes useful.
