Spiral Dynamics - Stage Green

Sean says:

I’ve watched all three of your spiral dynamics videos, and I’ve found that the blue stage doesn’t describe my beliefs at all, maybe a couple things in orange, and a few things in green. I am also an atheist libertarian. I believe in individualism, such that it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from, that you can become and do anything you want regardless of race or gender or other pointless classifications. I am against affirmative action, it’s discriminatory to make it easier for blacks to get into college, but make it harder for asians, it takes away opportunities from asians and whites just because those ethnicities have statistically done better. Race is a useless categorization, it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, whoever does the job better gets hired. I am against the government telling you how to live your life, if you wanna smoke some dope, smoke some dope, if you wanna marry someone of your own sex, do it, it’s not the governments job to stop you. I don’t support environmental regulation of companies, as in forcing them to limit things like carbon emissions, etc, but I am for providing incentives for companies that are more friendly to the environment. I am of the opinion that the global warming issue is more of a priority problem. Is controlling pollution worth the jobs and the growth the we will lose? In most cases I think it is. I support gun rights, the second amendment is a doomsday provision, it is the right for when all other rights fail. The second amendment protects our other rights, when governments have gone tyrannical, every single time, they have taken away our guns first. In terms of school shootings, guns are not the problem, in the 1970s, before any school shootings were happening, gun ownership was over twice the rate it is now, the problem is social decay, not guns. If gun control worked, cities like Chicago and D.C. would be the safest cities in America, but they are the most dangerous. Gun control takes away guns from law abiding citizens, not criminals. I don’t believe there is a god. However I am spiritual, thanks to Leo here. There is no creator, nobody designed us, there is tremendous proof the evolution did happen and is how we were developed. I’ve probably gone on with this bit far longer than I probably should have. I am looking forward to your next video Leo, I haven’t connected with the blue, orange, and green stages so far, and I would like to see how much I connect to yellow. If you disagree with anything I’ve said, be polite please

Yes, as much as I’d like to go down that path of green, I’m blue now when my previous moving house was me at the orange stage, blue when it was Luciferian, given all this confusion I don’t know whether I’m an individualist but I know I’m a conventionalist and anti-perfectionist, with Leo you weren’t meant to be an atheist, of course atheists cling to atheism like any religious person clings to religion, it’s what feels safe. My religion doesn’t feel safe but it feels like letting go of it isn’t important, there’s no good reason to let it go. All my beliefs have a lot of defending to do, I constantly have to tell people I’m not perfect and that it’s OK, I know who I am and it’s going downhill fast, changing my life makes me feel uncomfortable, and for the record I’m not feeling good, that stomach ache is the result of junk food from trusted companies, that’s why I get chimp beliefs and concepts, it’s because I’m a chimp in a tweed jacket or a chimp in cheap clothes. Yes, I heard society is screwing me in the arse but I don’t believe Leo in what he’s saying, society is rooting you in the arse, but not to the extreme of sports & corporate greed and religions in general, it’s Christianity and the Eucharist and holiness of one god that’s chimp behaviour. Enough said.
