A question about bears?
You asked people if they remembered the Berenstein Bears. Your first misstake was assuming that people instantly understood that you were refering to the spelling of the Berenstein Bears and it's related propaganda of some Mandela Effect (Which I have never heard of or about until now.)
Your second misstake was in getting offended that people didn't understand your assumptions and, after tossing two links, expected people to instantly engage in some philosophical discussion about it...
Is this how you engage conversation in real life? Person?
Instead perhaps...Had you of started out with the Mandela Effect and referenced the Berenstein bears and Asked us if we knew about or had thoughts towards the theory.....You may of had a better response from everyone

Throwing the blame on us is a bit unfair....don't you think?

Day after day
Alone on a hill
The man with the foolish grin
Is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning round
Well on the way
Head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices
Talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning round
And nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning round, oh oh oh, round round round round
He never listens to them
He knows that they're the fools
They don't like him
The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning round
Oh, round round round round, oh

As suggested earlier the SCIENTIFIC METHOD is wasted on me! :laugh: :woohoo:

I think this gets to the core of the problem. Pardon me for sounding like a Moderator, which I am not, however I don't feel these forums are the appropriate place to be conducting scientific social experiments, as their very nature necessitates a certain amount of obfuscation, at the least, and deception and manipulation at the worst. I have no problem with you BryanJerome, sometimes we all approach things without completely examining how our approach could pan out poorly, and I am sorry if the responses make you feel the Temple may not be right for you. That would be a shame. Still, I just felt the improper nature of conducting an experiment on others on the forums without their foreknowledge is not in accord with the spirit of the doctrine.

I would like to say that I do not feel offended, BryanJerome. I do understand that you want to talk about the Mandela effect. But now I ask, did you ask about the Mandela effect, or did you demonstrate the Mandela effect?
Wonderful thread, wonderful posts.. Wondering about what would come..
BryanJerome wrote: I am not "throwing the blame" on you.... it's equal parts. Yes, my original question was perhaps misleading. My follow up reply should have corrected everything. Instead I was chastised for being short with someone. And yes, I do talk to people like this in real life- it makes for a great sifter, and thus avoiding the Time Warner Cable of People, who, while are me and I them, I have no desire to interact with at this stage of my journey. To do otherwise suggests this is the next logical step:

Night after Night
Together on a mountain
the man with a smile
the stranger with no face
stands there enjoying
every person want to know him
understand that he is trying
giving his words of joy
that man on the hill
likes watching the moon rising
sees himself spinning around the world
on his path
he watch the moon
understand the hart within
and the smile out, bags of love coming home..
No person did not know him
And he did not know a person
he could share, they shared back
he could ask, they asked back
he would link, they would reflect
Oh wonderful forum
Oh wonderful moon
Why is it that I feel like a spoon?
Oh, square, square, square, square, oh
wonderful spoon. Do not bend the spoon..
Why do you not tell, the movie, well, well, well
You know it right? Know what they try to yell?
The blue, or the Red. It does not mater, ey, ey, ey.
Choose blue to do not go back
Choose red to go further back to your roots.
Ask again and understand, I do not know how this thread went.
I do not forgive, what I can not forgive. Happy to share know

Oh .. Oh... my little spoon.. where is my lovely moon?
