Earth is a story being unfolded... we are working our way to perfection. From a massive rock to trees to bacteria to mammals to conscious human beings... we are just taking steps toward "it". Quantum physics, anyone?
Hopefully we don't all get crushed before "it" happens, eh?
[align=center]There is no such thing as Matter or Energy.
Those are all just ideas able to be perceived with the senses this body is meant to perceive with.
As Stoner Shadow Wolf said, there are many small awakenings along the way.
Once you awaken fully and can leave your body and return to your bodiless state at will, you are truly awake.
That's a big step so you might as well start small.
Perfection cannot be achieved if perfection is your goal...
think about it[/align]
Now tremble before me, as I have a huge font!
apparently some of you think yelling will get your point across. fools.
Anyways, my point to Ermitonto would be this:
You're right. There is no scientific evidence for there being more than what our senses can tell us. But our senses do in fact deceive us. We don't see half of whats out there and yet we think we can construct the entire picture from what we do infer. Think of the human visual spectrum for example. Such a relatively insignificant portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. You can't even hear the same sounds that the majority of the animal kingdom can. You have no sense for the electromagnetic fields that can guide birds south during migration... etc.
Scientifically, we know there's more to life than just what we can rationally describe. But, in order to live life, we have to have beliefs concerning the rest.
So then, choosing to believe there's nothing is fine... But it's just as much a leap of faith as to choose God.
I think some people on these boards have had experiences which demonstrate some of what's out there that hasn't been quantified. It gets worded differently everytime, and some people call it god, other people call it energy or prana, chi, etc. But there does seem to be some sort of experience in life which we simply lack the language to describe in a materialist (physical) language... Haven't you ever had such an experience?
I just started reading...this energy is measurable. It all starts in your Brain.Quote:

Okay, just kept on reading it, and seeing how you're referencing my post...hold on.
Ok, where do you get the energy to process your thoughts into a "post", amino acids?
How do we have any energy to synthesize amino acids?
Everything has a gravitational pull. EVERYTHING. We can't just go up to someone and measure their gravity. Of course, a fatter person would have a greater gravitational pull. Moisture rises and falls over the Atlantic, and when the fronts make their way across the United States, they combine with the Moisture Patterns over the Atlantic because "water attracts water". If you place a drop of water near another, they will attract each other and it's an unmeasureably energy that causes them to attract (unmeasurable by my standards, anyway). I'm still asleep.
T. J. was a "Confederate" President. No? I'm not into American History, besides what I've learned in Elementary School.
This is true. All men are made up of snakes and snails, and puppy-dog tails and women are made up of sugar and spice, and everything nice.
My goal is to be perfect at the "free-throw" line and when I hit 10 out of 10, guess what, Perfection Achieved!!!
