It sounds like the term is to imply that polarizing negative is possibly going to cause harm. Is that not what started your thread?
You said:"IMO you can't take the negative path without eventually enslaving others as a matter of course. That doesn't mean it's bad - slavery is a very natural thing and I encourage anyone who truly feels the call of the dark to pursue that."
So salvery is not to be viewed as bad? Huh? Then why do some many fight against that?

Alright - negative, at least you said this much, takes much longer to arrive at the same place being in positive polarity. So there's that negative to the negative polarity.

The key thing is selfishness. Negative polarity is about selfishness and self-love. It just so happens that a strong selfishness will cause people to do acts considered by society to be immoral. But that is just society - what do they know?

I actually posted stuff like this too. All wars are from selfishness motives. But that is what I would call low level of consciouessness, not darkworker polarity.


[quote]Steve's advice on how to cultivate each polarity is IMO exactly right. To cultivate a "dark" polarity you focus on being selfish and on absorbing energy to yourself for your own benefit. But a natural part of this, along the path you travel, is going to be coercing others. Whether or not you know about the path, you are still traveling it.

Steve recommends the exact same practices to follow darkwork that the Church of Satan recommends - and this is what we'd expect otherwise there would be some incongruency somewhere. But the practices are the same - absorb energy into yourself for your own usage and benefit, focus on your own well being and interests entirely.

If the practices are the same, it doesnt matter what you call it or what you predict it will do. The path will be the same.[quote]
Going into the negative polarity of yours is going into darkworker (or low level of consciouessness) syndrome.

My bet is just that it will be helpful to people to know about this path before they travel it and find the obstacles on their own. I think a person with a strong bias towards unity may travel down the dark path for awhile, and may eventually realise it's not for him and then intentionally repolarize towards the positive. We always have free will. So in truth it's not much of a danger, and I hope I don't scare anyone from exploring that side of life.

So you are argueing for the idea that the polarity changes as we grow (become more conscious)? And since you see classical negative polarity as the same as darkworker, it's all just a matter of the level of consciousness - nothing new.

I keep tyring to see that Steve's idea is not LOC stuff. Does he actually say, look, darkworkers are at low LOC and lightworkers are at high LOC? NO, I think so. Your classical negative polarity is the same as LOC axis but not whatever the heck Steve's polarity idea is.
