Aleksandar, thanks for the comment on opening the Alliance to the general public without requiring membership. This is a topic under much discussion by our board and we welcome all input. So far we generally agree that it's helpful to have a "container" in which deep discussion and content can occur. Anyone who might wish express a thought on this, please start a new topic in the Forum rather than continuing here on Craig's posting as this isn't the ideal place for such a conversation. Thanks!
When I was a child, my imagination was leading me to some strange places. One such place that kept repeating over and over again was: “What should I do in order to be the most well-known person ever in human history (Singer? Painter? Scientist? …?)?” Take this question from my childhood repeated in this context as an ego-trip if you want to, but the fact is that the Youtube video mentioned about is talking about participating in the biggest challenge ever according to our knowledge of history of living beings in the universe.
Just when I heard that teardrop part (I'm writing this comment at the moment I paused it and still didn't hear the rest of it), my left contact lens fell out (the teardrop that was supposed to keep it in place vanished). A more detailed comment on the discussion topic coming soon.
Considering the quality of content one can find here, I'll write down here a suggestion. I found the Depth Psychology Alliance while I was searching in Google Zachary Stinson psychology (Zachary Stinson's paper was at that moment one of the latest discussion topics). I really think that the Alliance should be open for anyone across the World Wide Web to find and use it more easily. Even those who are active members would then be (in my opinion) more motivated (the number of potential readers would be bigger) to contribute in blogs, discussions, and comments. It's very confusing when I want to tell to someone: "I've just found something interesting there, but I must copy and paste it for you because you aren't a registered member".
