When pathologizing aliens distorts understanding (them).
And then what if we recognize that this scripting happens for everyone? Then that means that we can reevaluate whether we want to continue with some of those scripts, whether we want to operate on autopilot or if we want to analyze why we're doing those things, why we've ascribed meaning to them. Because then that means that we can rewrite them scripts, that means we can toss them out, start new ones. But it's not about who's deficient and who's efficient

Or she's not a really big people person, or I shouldn't invite her to this thing I'm having because she doesn't like being around people when that's not necessarily true. Hopefully that I was trying to make sense of what you were saying. It's clear. And also for those who are listening, they get something out of it too. And as far as something new to think about, thank you for sparking something new for me to consider and think about as well
And I also am completely with you with respect to your initial comments around just using science to understand something. It limits our understanding. I think that there's utility in every tool that we have in order to gain understanding. But it becomes problematic when we say math is the only way, or science is the only way, or religion is the only way, or anthropology, psychology, whatever it is, is the only way. Those things are not the only way
