1. Have you seen Thank you for Smoking?
In the movie he makes note of a very basic understanding that no argument can be absolved through the immaturity of basic opinion or black and white social consciousness moral identity.
"If you argue correctly, you're never wrong."
So I ask you this: How can a human being understand Anything outside of it's own mind, without first completely understanding the ACT of understanding, itself, as well as the nature of it's own psychological progression, mental roadblocks, or lack of empathy?
If philosophy or religion was so "right", then why are there so many? Do you really think that so many people would worship something unless it made internal sense? What about holy books? Why would someone go around writing lies?
Everything you've read or learned in school first originated within the mind of someone else. Why would they want to lie to you? What purpose does it serve to spend hours upon hours writing falsehoods?
If I asked you directly, honestly, why did you seek out religion, what would be your answer?
Be honest with yourself. Were you afraid of something?
What desire led you to castrating your own brain?
Psychedelicious chemicals such as thc or *whisper* lsd are hardly a normal empathic experience. If you were 9, never had sex or drugs of any sort, could you empathise with someone's description of a high?
Like the matrix, noone can tell you what it is or what it feels like to be High. You have to experience it for yourself.
So, If am telling you, right now, that psychedelic chemicals can lead you to actual intellectual revelations beyond anything your normal waking consciousness can "visualize" or empathically imagine, and that all the universe can be explained within the period of the hour/s your awareness goes through "ego-death", and that the divine flesh of our ancestors was nothing at all like a peice of bread and some fermented grapes, but instead a multitude of chemicals that naturally occured on the earth, that rather than induce hazy addictive euphoria, helped you learn the very actions and interpretations of your own brain, the metaprogramming you indulge on automatic most of the time, to better deal with and understand reality and death and time and love, will you seek them out?
Or will you aspire to the fear that leads you nowhere but where you've always been, right behind those eyes, questioning, insecure, waiting for the inspiration to live life exactly how you've always dreamed?
