Just as racist as I am.
So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

in my dream last night....I was back in the Navy on Ford Island with my Navy SEAL friends and he came into our barracks to take a nap. We were all outside barbecuing and he came out and smoked a cigarette and talked story. The whole time in my dream though his head kept deforming into different caricatures I've seen. The McCain showed up and they were arguing, McCain's head kept getting bigger and bigger, plus he was walking around like a robot....then I woke up got ready for work and walked down to my polling location right down the street from my house.....
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

The same holds true with any race.

Feel free kiss my ass. There are people out there that transcend basic psychology 101. Not everyone fits in your narrow view of the world. I didn't say that I wasn't racist. However, I have met people in my life that were so pure of heart that they didn't even seem human. Originally Posted by DOMS

But, I guess you know what you are talking about. You took psychology 101, so you know.“I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to, too.”

Su-u-u-re there are. There are people that have undone 10s of thousands (more, really) of years of evolutionary hardwiring. Hardwiring that ensures survival from day to day. Originally Posted by KelJu

All of the above links are to studies done with the help of the Dalai Lama, Buddhist monks, and top neuroscientist. These monks were doing things that modern psychology said is impossible. They dedicate their lives to improving their mind and growing past that so called"hard-wiring.
Amazon.com: Destructive Emotions: A Scientific Dialogue with the Dalai Lama: Daniel Goleman, Dalai Lama: Books
This is a link to the book that documented many of the studies. The Dalai Lama worked directly with Daniel Goleman for years helping to explain why the highly trained monks are able to do the things they do, and scientist are trying to figure out how they are able to do it.
If a monk can sit quietly while a gun is fired close to their head with no startle reflex and no spiked brain activity, you think they can't get past something as simple as a preference to their own race?
Psychology will change just as Newtonian physics changed. If you really studied any psychology, then maybe you have heard of cognitive dissidence. If you want to be a proud racist, thats fine. I'm not judging you. But, your projection of your own psychological traits onto everyone else in the world is wrong, and science is proving it. Again, not everyone fits into your view of the world. To say everyone is one thing or another is arrogant and ignorant. You can't possibly know what is in everyone's brain, mind, and soul.
I challenge you to read the book. It is a good read. It isn't eastern mysticism. It is a lot of science and research into emotions.“I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to, too.”

I agree with Kelju, there are far too many intangibles in psychology. In a purely scientific perspective, modern psychology isn't a true science. Nothing (or close to) can be quantified. It is all opinion. You can devise a lot of highly accurate assumptions on individual's minds that ring true 90% of the time. But, the human psyche can't, at least not now, be put into ultimate unifying terms.
To say otherwise is extremely ignorant. I feel very strongly about that statement.
Furthering your knowledge in psychology has many practical applications, but it isn't a science in the true sense of the word. Though, it can still be pursued with the scientific method.
