Nineveh said:One whole man? Wow. That proves it!But, actually, I keep fidning where he employed occultic practices along with his psychotherapy. Perhaps he tried those first and when all else failed....
And what "occultic practices" would those be?
I was using one man as an example.
Plus, you guys realize that you're arguing over whether someone who has been dead for over 40 years is in heaven or hell.
Disregarding anything jung may have used in his psychological practices, you really have no idea what his relationship was with god as that's between him and god, so who are you to say if he's in heaven or hell? And what does it even matter?

Why would you think that Jung was a Christian? I don't recall reading or hearing him mention being one...Nineveh said:
So, "as before", you have no documentation for your outlandish claims about alleged Jungian "occult practices"...As before, use google, you are a big boy

I don't. That's why it helps to at least familiarize yourself with the convo.
Tell that to Hasan_ibn_Sabah.
Look, I've looked it up and read it. It's you who seems to need the research. So either we can see this like I'm too stupid to read, or you are too lazy to edify yourself. : shrugs :
I think that it is interesting that Jung saw Africa as the Dark Continent, but because he thought of himself as the "other", he became disturbed when he found himself "becoming too black," and felt fear when they began to play drums, and felt that it was overtaking him.
The truth is, he was one of them, as we are all part of the human race.
I have talked to folks in my African Dance class. The drummers sometimes seem to hear voices, their names called, etc. One drummer kept hearing "Grandfather." And when the rhythm is right, it causes you to dance wildly, the same way a good song causes you to jump up and be exceedingly happy.
I think it has little to do with spiritism, if that is the word, except that the human spirit relates to it, and the body follows.
Think of how many people enjoy dancing, working their bodies to such an extreme, more than many sports at times, until they seem to transcend. And on a spiritual level, maybe they do.

Well, that's good to know...Nineveh said:
With a posting name like that, should I assume he's a non-Christian? If so, perhaps the shades of difference between Jung's beliefs and say yours are too fine for him to discern...
You made a, thus far, unsubstantiated claim.
You won't defend your point by providing a single whit of documentation.
You see your vague handwaving as somehow virtuous.
I see it as indication that you are lying and have nothing to substantiate your claim.
So be it.

I seem to remember allsmiles pulling this stunt with you, and you having no patience for it. (i.e. unsubstantiated claims). But, by all means, do what you feel is right.
