Wrap your mind around this one

i wanted to add this to my previous post but too much time passes:


For example; if you truly believe a certain god exists and he loves you, your mind will eventually prove to you that this god does exist and he does care for you. Nobody will be able to convince you otherwise (think of any religious person). If you believe that Jews are corrupt money hoarding bankers that are hurting your country, your brain will then prove this to you because that is how you are programed to think (maybe due to clever brainwashing campaigns or your own loathing of the jews) . Then it will make much more sense why a whole country of people can sit around and let genocide occur right under their noses.

man i been trryin to convince people of that for along time. i wrote a paper in school about how man is god and we are the creator. basicaly it said for a god o exist there must be beleif and if noone believes then we have efectivaly killed god. i like to argue with he jehovas witness that come to my door that i am more powerful than god.

Yeah the idea of the holographic universe is pretty cool in my opinion. And IMO it basically explains the existance of a seperate "mental" dimension. We cannot locate the exact points in our brains where specific memories are stored. Basically with holographic theory it explains that our "minds" really aren't here in the physical sense. They exist somewhere we cannot locate but we are connected to.

Its hard to wrap your mind around it and I know I don't explain it well, but once you wrap your mind around it you feel like you know everything?

this thread falls somewhere between the realities of sense, and nonsense, and it definitely exists, unless i dont exist, in which case, do you exist if i talk to you then, tell me, so i will exist no matter what then, because you cant reply to nothing, so if you do, then im not nothing, but you could be.

I can only answer by repeating words scrawled over a wash basin in Midland City, Ohio:

"To be is to do"--Socrates.

"To do is to be"--Jean-Paul Sarte.

"Do be do be do"--Frank Sinatra.

frank sinatra told us to smoke weed, he said do be do be do be do, and if you smash it it says, doobie doobie doobie, he wants us to smoke joints, bowls, whatever we can.

and if you can belive this, i wasnt high before, but now i am.

Jimmy you are so right:thumbsup:
So is Frank:rastasmoke:

It's "Doobie Doobie do?" I always thought it was "Boobie Boobie Boob." I'm OK either way, actually. In fact, I'll take one of each, please!



I think we've effectively derailed this philosophical discussion now...
