Hahaha! You've just been using the word. Could you be using it without knowing what it symbolizes? Laugh. No, you are the one soliciting for definitions of it, from me and Mtu Biz. What it is. Or who it is. I think you are now evading the question. You have quoted something up there and drawn a conclusion. I wanted to understand what you meant, so I naturally asked what you meant. But you turned the question back to me. Why? Because. Yes, I evaded the question. Slick eh? Laugh From what I put up there, I think 'mind' is 'society', the 'us', the 'people who think of 'this' future'. If that's what you mean by 'mind' then renegades must be part of 'us'. And your assertion is true. What is 'renegade'? ren·e·gade /ˈrenəˌɡād/ noun a person who deserts and betrays an organization, country, or set of principles. adjective having treacherously changed allegiance. treach·er·ous /ˈtreCH(ə)rəs/ adjective guilty of or involving betrayal or deception. I also acknowledge any positive definition possible.

No. Consciousness can though.

I also acknowledge any positive definition possible. Thank you. As the naming word, how then can 'renegade' be part of 'us'? What makes you assume its 'negative'?

Can you count 'us'? Again if mind is 'us', then does a renegade have a mind? I 'assume' it's negative because one of my teachers said, a 'heretic' glories in his 'orthodoxy'. But a heretic who glories in heresy can't be true.

No. Consciousness can though. hmmm..... Isn't it the other way around? By consciousness do you mean the 'I' or what the mind is conscious of ?

If the mind is an 'interface' what can it change to? What's the mind conscious of, if not itself?

The conscious mind can process definitions but can't process meaning.The subconscious mind can process meaning but can't process definitions.
The conscious mind understands structure and parameters.The subconscious mind understands association.
The conscious mind 'quantifying' the subconscious mind and the subconscious mind 'qualifying' the conscious mind.The science of art and the art of science.

But a heretic who glories in heresy can't be true. I think 'us' comprise singularity. One. That further implies count. Numeration. Multiplicity. Hence One is multiple and so negative becomes positive. Renegade is positive. Beautiful!
