Point is, it's not as if the answers have not already been given .... I just don't feel inclined to keep typing them out again and again.
Whether you agree with the answers is one thing. But before that, you must know that there have been answers. Many of the "not-quite" believers have not even bothered to find out what answers have been given - they simply take the view that their questions are unanswerable and therefore the LOA must be false. |
One response you gave me was the link to how you unintentionally manifested your daughter's illness and she wound up in the hospital. You, and everyone else involved, unintentionally manifested it so that everybody got what they wanted.
I understand how that works. But that situation was not a tragedy. And so it doesn't answer the question of how people manifest situations that are tragedies and do not give them anything they want.
The problem with this discussion is, I think, disagreements in fundamental beliefs. I think the person who completely believes in LoA as creating all reality, are going to say that somehow people did get what they wanted in a tragedy, or they created it by being afraid of it, and if they deny that, then they created it subconsciously without even knowing they were being negative or afraid and so on.
I simply don't see the evidence to support that in reality other than some anecdotal stories and quotes, and I don't know how we can ever be sure if somebody created something subconsciously, because how can that be proven, especially if it's something which is so non-personal as weather?
