Jung was a student of Freud. Jung said that we all have a 'dark side' which, if we attempt to deny it and not integrate it, will be projected on to others. You can see this on a personal micro level and on a larger scale, where countries accuse other countries of what they themselves are guilty of but cannot acknowledge. Jung loved applying his theories to myths, and John Campbell has written a series of books about Jung.

I too struggle with some of what you're saying. In the spirit world, all that is supposed to exist is love and goodness. We experience suffering on earth because of the duality here. As spiritual beings and parts of God, we are supposed to have created the physical world so that we could incarnate and experience hardship to know what we are not and to discover our true selves as spirits. That's what I've read, and it has resonated with me. But now, after reading and seeing these horrible pizzagate stories, I'm beginning to think that there is a satan, perhaps created by the collective minds of the fuckwits who believe and worship him.

All I know for sure is that Jesus taught us to love one another and be kind. And they are the teachings I choose to follow.

Jung started off as student and friend of Freud but definitely parted ways mid-life. Don't think Freud ever took on metaphysical battle.

Yeah same boat here. Not entirely sure if 'satan' but it's definitely much darker degree of evil than was previously privy to.

There are a lot of wonderful teachings in all religions of the world that can improve not only the quality of your life but the quality of life for those you come into contact with!! I would highly recommend reading Joseph Campbell for his ability to analyze and compare humanities mythology :) A lot of beautiful insights

Absolutely. If you're referencing 'magick' 'holy spirit' 'Christ consciousness'...it's all the same thing. It's the power of intention, and reality manipulation. I know some of you have read about it on /pol/ or /x/ or fringechan or any other site that dives into such theories.

Our focus is what causes the anomalies. Example: We have a population nervous about WWIII. The universe doesn't hear "oh, WWIII will be BAD" or "WWIII is just what we need!". No, it only 'hears' (no other word to describe it) "WWIII". And the universe provides..whether it's inherently 'good' or 'evil' is up to us, the catalyst for it all.

Of course, this is just a fringe theory that's floating around out there. I personally have witnessed such instances on small scales throughout my life, and I am a firm believer.
