hi everyone, i wanted to start a new thread with a NEW topic heading here, as the active one at the moment with over 700 posts looks like it is all about the Cambridge school. This may confuse newcomers.

Let's continue the debate here !
All newcomers welcome !

I will shortly link our two previous threads on MN for any one new to have a look at.

Davy, could you also give a link to your new yahoo list here please ? Thanks.

"?The brain and nerve system have nothing at all to do with actual cognition....?

Steiner [THE FOUNDATIONS OF HUMAN EXPERIENCE, p. 60.]

Not juts any old walrus, she was an intergalactic one!

Where do the steiner folks think then? (resisting the temptation to say, with their arse!)

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 03/03/2008 14:04

DS not only uses black crayons but is fond of eating them.
Will our local Steiner school reject him on these grounds?

Boco · 03/03/2008 14:11

Has anyone noticed that EVA backwards is AVE and that SUNE backwards is actually ENUS? Well, I don't know if that is a coincidence or what, I'm just saying.

And Sheik has a spiritual booty. I'm not sure if that is relevant.

I use black crayons a lot, professionally, and I am VERY out of touch, spiritually speaking. I don't know if there's anything to that.

I'll never be able to look at jelly and lettuce in the same light ever again.

the whole thing is madder than I thought originally.

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 16:31

Boco LOL about ave enus

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 16:35

Martian, dunno. They go quiet when we win.

Oh so harsh but oh so true.

Then ave enus comes back and posts his personal sites.

then we go- those are all lies

And then he posts to some else's sites, someone pretending to be an intellectual heavyweight, but who looks about 12 and has a base ball capped sprayed onto his head.

And lokks like he eats a big bowl of crazy for breakfast.

Steinerbix.

Rudiflakes.

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 16:37

But swing between finding it hysterical to getting really cross about the racism, because they won't adress it.

The Steiner camp just throw hissy fits and don't discuss.

Blandmum · 03/03/2008 16:38

don't be daft, they obiously all eat Grape Nuts

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 16:41

the devil, most certainly.
Black is not spiritual, so he is in fact imbibing non-spiritual matter.

God knows what this will do to his karmic journey.

And the journey of the non-spiritual matter too.

Eugh!

"I use black crayons a lot, professionally, and I am VERY out of touch, spiritually speaking."

Boco- I use black ink professionally too. Rotrings etc.
And am also unspritual.

Steiner's theories on colour and outlines were very definite.

#There are no lines in the spiritual world, and the colours are all watery and washy, (apparently).

So the children are only aloowed to use thes wishy washy shapes and colours to remind them of the spirit world they've just come from. Help them adjust you see. It's so simple when you understand it.

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 03/03/2008 16:50

Well I am devastated.
I had every intention of crippling his education, but what will be will be.

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 17:03

The devil, does he go to steiner now?

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 03/03/2008 17:04

oops that was a misjudged joke.

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 17:30

This is brilliant.
Someone who can't spell/type ( it's wonderful just trying to decippher what she means- they mixed up Estonian with etonian)
Anyway- she's started a thread on wht these steiner threads are so big, and why people who's kids don't go there are so involved.

MaryAnnSingleton · 03/03/2008 17:31

that's cod - she can spell, she just can't type !

VictorianSqualor · 03/03/2008 17:33

She's better when drunk, or in a rush, even harder to read then.
I think it's something spiritual, maybe she sees it all as a blur like before she came?

Boco · 03/03/2008 17:37

Awww, that is so possible. Cod has no outlines, she's all the blurry shapes of spirit souls, as reflected in her typing. She types with her elbows as spirits don't have fingers.

ahundredtimes · 03/03/2008 17:39

No, no. She mixed up steiner with estonian etonians. Well, she didn't actually. I did. It was fun.

If we come on here do we have to pick our side in the blood feud? Will there be orks and long walks across Middle Earth and things? I want to know so I can accessorize properly.

northernrefugee39 · 03/03/2008 17:40

Hello MaryAnn- Yo, a ripe opportunity to catch up.....
Are you going to cod's thread?
I'm scared cos they don't like Steiner feuds.....

MaryAnnSingleton · 03/03/2008 17:40

they're going to be cross with you I think...

MaryAnnSingleton · 03/03/2008 17:41

hi northern - this is making my head spin a bit ! have you heard about schools up there yet for dd2 ?
