I did research and found Skinner is the only person to explain human behavior and be correct 100% of the

time. You are a superstitious moron that will never stop defending the lies you were and are fed, that make life miserable. People behave according to six causes: 1. Genetic Endowment 2. Pre-natal chemical environment 3. Post-natal chemical environment 4. Pavlovian Conditioning: stimulus-stimulus-response 5. Skinnerian Conditioning: stimulus-response-consequence 6. Traumatic factors-brain damage, Dementia, Alzheimer's disease etc... These are the causes for behavior that work through generalization, discrimination, avoidance behavior, punishment, positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, etc.... and function on schedules of reinforcement to determine human behavior. Anyone that researches Skinner can see he assesses human behavior accurately and his analysis is much more complicated then the stimulus response behavior of a robot. Everyone like you never researches anything though, you just regurgitate the BS you were told and conditioned to accept. All you drones make sure Skinner is ignored and people are conditioned to reject the answers that make life better. My facts are the only logic you will experience and being right will always make looking in the mirror pleasant. You conditioned puppets were brainwashed as Stockholm Syndrome causalities that never shut up AND you should ask yourself your questions, not me! I was conditioned to use the science of human behavior to make the world a better place to live, but your brain connections are formed so you will always regurgitate the lies you were fed SO my posts are for future generations, hopefully they can escape the hateful, ignorant, superstition all you sheople swallow. There is no self initiating force in the universe, much less the brain, but I was conditioned to respond so I behave accordingly. I never plan anything andyours and everyone's plans are superfluous before behaving. Thoughts are not causes they are effects. Thoughts are not causes for human behavior, they are descriptions of covert behavior. We have thoughts and they are effects produced by interactions with the environment. Thoughts are side effects. They are not causes for a behavior. Nobody has ever seen a thought cause behavior, never, they are only said to be causes of behavior because they are paired with behavior at times and that is coincidental reinforcement, superstitious behavior AND superstitious behavior causes problems. Causes happen 100% of the time. People many times think they are going to go upstairs and go downstairs, sometimes they just sit there. Thus, thoughts are superfluous. Evolution could never select a thought to cause behavior for every situation, not only that natural selection couldn't select a different thought as thoughts are unique according to every individuals unique conditioning, there is no evidence thoughts cause behavior and undeniable evidence that they don't cause behavior. Humans behave because of their environmental history, evolutionary history and the current situation. NOT descriptions. People behave the way they do regardless of what

they think. You were conditioned to justify being wrong about everything and my rhetoric will never change your idiot behavior SO I will always beat my head against the wall because that is my behavioral repertoire, yours is to be wrong about everything AND even though you morons never stop being wrong, I do hope future generations will learn effective humanism. The reviewer's purple veins are throbbing in his flushed rose' tone mottled prose. ONLY SKINNER he belches wiht fire and disdain. Never once have you observed my reactions, yet you make up stuff and state it as fact. Behaviorism explains your behavior as it explains every behavior. You were conditioned to behave superstitiously while always thinking you are right. Evolutionarily it was selected for people to behave to pass on their DNA was, causes of behavior and events were superfluous and what was important was stating your conditioned worldviews confidently and authoritatively so superstition and always saying you are right even when you are wrong has been selected and people behave how they behave. Your behavior is your behavior and is another reason science, behaviorism, B.F. Skinner is right and superstitious bnehavior prevails. Natural selection has also selected perseverant behavior. Therefore, the brain maintains behavior through intermittent reinforcement so if at first you don't succeed many people try and try again. Behaviorism explains human behavior AND I was reinforced for valid explanations. Therefore as Paul Brunton was not reinforced for the cult of personality, neither was I. I was reinforced for science that is right and only Skinner ever provided the tools to elicit effective humanism so that is why I espouse his behavior. It is documented in the book, The Reluctant Alliance: Behaviorism And Humanism. Get a life. I might end up with one like yours (LOL). Work at a soup kitchen. Telling people what to do is behavior where people need to be tarred and feathered for displaying. Read Paul Brunton and Marcus Aurelius. I have. I do research and have observed Paul Brunton is just another conditioned superstitious animal that trumpeted linking science and mysticism because he was exposed to this nonsense instead of recognizing the value of true science like data driven analysis as done by B.F. Skinner SO I reject his writings. He thought we had a self initiating force in the brain instead of recognizing we behave according to the contingencies of reinforcement SO again I reject his writings. Natural Selection selected consequences as a major determinant of behavior not the superstitions he told us. People behave according to six causes:

1. Genetic Endowment 2. Pre-natal chemical environment 3. Post-natal chemical environment 4. Pavlovian Conditioning: stimulus-stimulus-response 5. Skinnerian Conditioning: stimulus-response-consequence 6. Traumatic factors-brain damage, dementia , Alzheimer's disease, etc... These causes for behavior work through generalization, discrimination, avoidance behavior, punishment, positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, etc.... and behavior is dependant on schedules of reinforcement to maintain or extinguish behavior. That is science and what I value. I don't value Brunton, he paired words like spirituality, which he never observed, but was culturally conditioned to like, and science,. He never observed his assertions so these entities were paired on the correct schedules of reinforcement and we got superstitious behavior (coincidental reinforcement), which again I reject. I was reinforced to be repulsed by ignorance and anyone that does not research their rhetoric and was reinforced by science. Therefore again I find Skinner's behavior trumps Brunton's behavior any day. This is documented time and time again by anyone that learns effective humanism and is therefore my modus operandi. Marcus Aurelius was a Greek emperor before science and it showed. He didn't recognize thoughts and emotions were effects and not causes. He didn't realize there is no self initiating force in the universe much less the brain. He was never exposed to evolution so he ignored the importance of consequences in determining human behavior and certainly ignored how natural selection could never select a thought or emotion to cause each behavior AND he certainly diddn't say how people can behave the same while experiencing different thoughts and emotions, Skinner never had this problem, he was a true scientist so he offers the only road to effective humanism and understanding human behavior. He and those that learn effective humanism are the only people to be studied by educated people, therefore I now read him and avoid ignorance. The best of intentions without understanding the science of human behavior leads to hell on earth (LOL). Yes....Skinnerian Psychology....a modern, secularized and useful but limited psychological tool for certain kinds of patients in certain environments. That is what you were conditioned to believe, but any research shows behaviorism explains every behavior's from hypocrisy, prejudice, intolerance, monetary greed, sexual repression, lying and on and on, it eliminates criminal behavior, it provides psychology with the tools to solve human behavior problems instead of having to pay people to listen to things people can't talk to others about and getting paid endlessly to regurgitate cultural conditioning SO I let people know what works. Behaviorism is tool for understanding that we can't live without, it would allow us to solve human behavior problems caused by superstitious behavior, but people are conditioned to read whatever reinforces the garbage they were fed and ignore and/or condemn the benefits of science. Popularity has nothing to do with

being right. Copernicus, Galileo and on and on easily demonstrate that, but your ignorant questions never stop? Therefore, I pay the price, behavior is maintained through intermittent reinforcement so I do what I do and am what I am. But, people will always accuse me of their behavior, people will always attack me with rhetoric everyone learns is to make a person look "bad" AND people rarely recognize good and bad are relative. What is good for one person is bad for another and vice versa, people are conditioned how they are conditioned. Therefore, I expose people to science over superstition and the consequences are the consequences. It has had a broadened impact on child rearing and classroom teaching.Skinner's insights are not first mentioned in Modern Psychology. Of course, people are conditioned to behave superstitiously and taking away reinforcement gets people to attack the messenger of truth so like other sciences Skinner is rejected, ignored, misunderstood and persecuted, but those that research his work always realize that science must overcome superstition. Read Three Psychologies or Understanding Behaviorism. Skinner is the only psychologist worth anything to anyone that wasn't conditioned to be a tool in a broken down shed AND wants to learn what is right and what works. The Teachings of Gautama Buddha's Four Noble Truths, discusses the same subject with the same goal, from a different cultural psychologicial perspective 2400 years ago. People stand on the shoulders of giants and originality is only espoused by people ignorant of sources SO Skinner and true science improves on those teachings. Why don't you begin your own campain for 'effective humanism' by toning down your rhetoric and getting off your soap box and stand eye... People are conditioned how they were conditioned. I learned to despise people telling me what to do based on your own subjectivity AND that give advice that runs counter to what I learned, but I note everything I experience AND I adapt according to consequences and circumstances. Presence, wonder, open minded willingness to enternain 'the impossible' and form the systems of new paradigms, creativity, novel and unforseen results, are all part and parcel of Science (I think of the old 1980's MTV Video Sience!,'Blinded by Science' with nutty professor running around yelling 'Science'!) You were conditioned to use words like open minded willingness without ever seeing a mind, self initiating force or a will. You were conditioned to be ignorant and regurgitate what this book and other garbage experiences condition you to reject what works and embrace superstitious behavior. The truth and your behavior is pathetic, glad future generations can avoid your incompetence while you defend your perpetyrato9rs that make you such a useless tool. I am a psychologist, 37 years in practice, trained in Behaviorism and many other clinical approaches from CBT,family systems, group dynamics developmental object relations. Mindfulness and 'just plain

listening to patients on the couch with the Eye of the Heart, open and traansparent. That's Humanistic, isn't it? If you help and don't just listen and get paid that is humanistic behavior. The Reluctant Alliance: Behaviorism And Humanism is effective humanism and if your behavioral repertoire improves lives, then Kudos! It's been a humbling career. Your rigid perfervid tone lacks humility....and I wonder how much time you have spent in clinical hours facing the fundamental human condition of suffering face to face. I improve life more then you ever will. But, you never stop trying to use what you learned makes you look good and me look bad, keep trying. Like you will ever stop! I crack myself up. BTW go back to Popper and Kuhn and read some philosophy of science. Again you tell me to ignore the true science of data driven analysis that is documented to improve the human condition and return to the dark ages perpetuated by the superstitious behavior that you never stop defending as it fails. No ignorance is not for me, you love it so you go back in your shed. OOhhh...just read your review history. Lets add Active Imagination and the ability to view the world from more than a Monadic Solipisistic viewpoint that paradoxically you masquerade as ....."effective humanism"???? Thanks for proving my point as always, all you puppets were conditioned to ignore what works and attack anyone giving you the facts with ignorant rhetoric that never once addresses an issue. You just regurgitate the ignorant words you learned and think they make you look good while in actuality your behavior makes a mockery of human behavior AND you never shut up! Therefore, hopefully future generations live and learn from your mistakes AND avoid being a clone of your village idiot behavior.
