'Theoretically vs Realistically'

I keep hammering people to be realistic when reporting observations after pitching a lot of orgonite out in the world. This really pays off in terms of attracting more people to participating in this effort.

We’re all programmed to ignore and distrust observable but challenging reality and to ‘believe in’ popular theory [Image Can Not Be Found] so I’m sharing something Matt Hutchinson in Oz sent me today which clearly shows the difference:

A small boy has a school home work question to answer, so he asks his father " Hey Dad, what’s the difference between ‘theoretically’ and ‘realistically’?"

His Dad thinks for a while and then says “Right-o son……go and ask your mother if she’d sleep with David Beckham for a million quid.”

The boy trots off and comes back saying “Dad, dad, she said she would! She would sleep with David Beckham for a million pounds.”

“OK son,” says his dad. “Now go and ask your sister the same question.”

The boy toddles off, and comes back saying “Dad, dad, she said she would too!”

So then his dad says “Right, son, now go and ask your elder brother if he’d sleep with David Beckham for a million pounds.”

The son comes back excitedly saying “Dad! Dad! He said he would too!”

“Well there you have it, son,” said his dad. Theoretically we could be sitting on three million quid. Realistically we’re living with two tarts and a poof."
