Title: The Fourth Turning...Rise And Fall Of Societies And Kindoms/Empires
Post by: SAMSON123 on February 25, 2010, 12:18:03 PM
A great bit of information about how societies and kingdoms are built up then thrown down and what happens within the societies (people) as these things are brought into being. There is too many pics and graphs to post it so you must view it on its site. Here are teh four turnings that happen in societies....read the rest to see how it works

    *   The First Turning is a High, an upbeat era of strengthening institutions and weakening individualism, when a new civic order implants and the old values regime decays.
       
    * The Second Turning is an Awakening, a passionate era of spiritual upheaval, when the civic order comes under attack from a new values regime.
       
    * The Third Turning is an Unraveling, a downcast era of strengthening individualism and weakening institutions, when the old civic order decays and the new values regime implants.
       
    * The Fourth Turning is a Crisis, a decisive era of secular upheaval, when the values regime propels the replacement of the old civic order with a new one.

Symptoms of Schizophrenia

Emotional & Behavioural Changes:

An early sign of disturbance is often social withdrawal, as the individual finds interactions with people and things progressively more difficult. One such common response is inability to take an interest in personal hygiene and appearance. Lack of energy, interest and motivation or decreased levels of activity, movement or speech should alert friends and family that something may be amiss. Similarly, behaviour patterns that are unusual in the particular individual, or responses that are clearly inappropriate (excessive laughing or crying in inappropriate circumstances, or excessive talking to oneself) may indicate the approach of an episode of schizophrenia.

Sampson, have you noticed that these people who keep accusing us of being one & the same are never around when we are both logged on at the same time?

I guess because they are to busy switching "proxies" and pretending to be others.... Like I said, should I be a mod, I will have a BIG BAN BUTTON and/or a BIG DELETE ACCOUNT BUTTON... I hate stupidity.

What i don't understand is why you won't come clean on the samson gimmick.  it's retarded to hide behind another name to post thoughts that you might get flamed for.  IMO you should be banned until you come clean.

LOL... KC, ...you obviously haven't seen me post long enough.
Do you honestly think I have a problem making posts that will cause me to be flamed, or disliked?
If you do... you definitely haven't read enough of my posts.

I don't know who Sampson is. I, like many of you here am working on figuring it out tho.
If and when I do figure it out, ...I won't reveal his identity. That'll be something between me, Sampson & Ron, because I'm pretty sure Ron knows who it is. I already know his ethnic identity, as well as his nationality. i think I have a pretty good idea about his background, as well as the region of the US he was raised in, and I think I know who he is... not quite sure yet, ...but I think I'm close.

Samson must be a very intriguing, interesting kinda guy though he is HATED TO DEATH here, since everyone is trying to figure me out. I have told everything about myself on this board over time, so there is no mystery...I don't think. What does everyone want to know about me?

I don't hate you. I actually kind of like you. I get a huge kick out of the conniption so many people have as a result of many of your posts. I like your content. no matter how ridiculous or outlandish many of your claims, there is always enough of a ring of plausibility to provoke thought and spawn ideas. I don't like it when you make racist comments tho.  :'( not too fond of your sexist comments either, but those are somewhat tolerable because I know they are not meant punitively... that's just how you are and it reflects in some of your statements.

but yes... I am curious about you. I'll PM you what I want to know.

Right.  He thinks you should be pregnant, barefoot, and in the kitchen.  Also, you should know your place and know when to keep your mouth shut. 

But, he's still a good guy and doesn't mean those things punitively?  Of course he is, because he = you!

Please stop, you are embarrassing yourself.

ps: Are you still sore about that "Police Behaving Badly" thread?
