1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    Reality is not perceived the same way just similarly experiences help shape and define each persons view of reality. That how we have likes and dislikes . You are trying to oversimplify perception and reality in correlation to the brain and how it develops over time with experience.

    I perceive myself much the same as anyone else. Learning to accept that I am not truly a singular entity is a continuous process

    Our identities are inherently the same. We simply force distinction. Why that is I am not certain

    When faced with the concept of unity the one often closes it's ears and shuts it's eyes.

    that's an illusion. every familiy is more unique. if they weren't, every child would understand the same things in school, find the same things easy and difficult, and that just ain't so. and its not even so of children of any one ethnicity either.

    unity depends upon diversity. without it, there is nothing to unite.

    I would say that the childs understanding is based off of several factors. First is the acceptance of the singular being, this is done by observing the reactions of those around the child and then simply asking why. In other words this singular identity is formed because it makes the most of the accepted reality we find ourselves in. The second is the acceptance of our parents perspectives on this reality. The third is acceptance of manmade law at its base form. As such we are taught to believe in the self and we grow this belief through living it.

    I believe unity to be inherent to all things. It is the acceptance of diversity that makes unity seem hard, necessary, and acceptable.
