It's surprising the trouble you seem to have with such simple ideas.
And actually, it turns out that the Moon is a protector of the Earth
(the size of our moon holds the axial tilt of the Earth steady, thus
making the ongoing evolution of life possible here). Thus, you have
that one kind of backwards too.
The last 30 seconds of this video is what I'm talking about:

Let's call the moon our 'sister'. :)
: : The last thought recently reemphasized to me is how utterly
: : banal and foolish it is to predict the end of the world.
:
: The world ends and begins again
: 3,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 per second.
: This civilization ended numerous times and is an infant bacteria colony.
Well, whatever you're talking about, it obviously wasn't the end
of either our world or our civilization.
: : It leaves me wondering how many hundreds of times this has
: : been done since Homo Erectus made sharp cutting tools.
: :
:
: As said many time small planet, small galaxy, single lightmach.
Big claims.

: : So that was our morning announcement, class. :)
: : Now back to the news, a few nice short excerpts...
:
: I only stopped by to inject some geometry into the data stacks.
Yeah, point sphere. Wow. :) (You know, I studied multiple geometries
in college - topology, etc. as part of a mathematics degree.)
: I know the tally from the elections already
Ah. Why don't you tell us "the tally from the elections", then?
Yet somehow I doubt that you'll be doing that... :)
: just taking care 8's ant farm.
: He played with the dinosaurs. He'll take that red bridge back if you want.
: You,ll forget it ever happened. There is geometry and momenum. Time is a mirage.
Yeah, sure. Okay. So if "time is a mirage", then am I dead or alive? :)
I can't be both at once. Similarly, does the earth exist or does it
not exist? (It's 4.6 billion years old thus for the first 9 billion
years of the universe it wasn't here.)
: There’s a scientist and God.
: The scientist challenges God to a contest of who can make the better human being. God tells him that he’s on.
: The scientist, in great delight, bends over to pick up some dust to make his human being.
: Then God says, ‘No, no no… you go and make your own dust.
Humans are vertebrates. We evolved from the line of chordates,
from fish. That line goes back a little over half a billion years. :)
So no one - including 'God' - ever actually "made" a human being.
No 'God' ever made a tree or a flower either. Those evolved from algae.
etc.

Most psychiatry is still somewhat soft science.
But several people I've known have seriously benefitted from it.
Speaking of your own beliefs you said:
"My therapist thought that was crazy."
But you didn't seem to think much of that particular therapist.
Do you have any others? If so, what do they think?

Don't waste your time.
Beyond a certain point.
Agony and misery become you.
The point was BPD is not healable.
A permanent structural malformation.
You'll never know, admit or believe it. It's a diagnosis.
You willingness to turn everything to sewage is compulsive.
My lack of need for consensus is galling to you.
Your an animal of the herd in search of fresh grass.
Slider's point was, "you find silence(ego death) disabling."
Your instincts (ID) and conscience (Super Ego) murdered
your self (Ego) a long time ago. That's Borderline Personality.
A healthy ego dies and rises many times until an "authentic self" emerges.
I viewed your relationship to CC as predator to prey, vulture to coyote.
All these years later still clinging to the bones and withholding judgement.
That's BPD.
Cling to others withhold common restraint and courtesy.
Always measuring, judging, accusing, vilifying and condemning.
Portraying yourself a "Atheism's Christ" and Mother Earth's son.
You try to be a narcissist (artist) but can't bear to stand alone.
It's repetitive and predictable, boring.
Go fight that light in the forest again.
IT GOT YOU TO ADMIT the "Truth." ... "It's all about you."
To you other does not exist, there is no boundary between self and other.
