My qualms with atheism.

[ADaisyChain]

There is no meaning... it's just infinite. One conscious' "life" rippling through the "universe" and effecting others... and the cycle goes on. Vibrations... the meaning of life is to continue life.

Looking for that meaning ((the one that probably doesn't exist)) is what keeps alot of people going, and if the meaning is to keep going, then looking for a different meaning is a really good idea. lol. Physicists seem to think the meaning is to become god, to control the universe. To wiggle the vibratory strings that compose us all in such a way that they can control whats happens in this particular illusion. -laughs- I hope we get there.

I appologize If I offended you or anyone, that wasn't actually my intention believe it or not. I think we've covered the fact that there will always be people believing and not believing in religion. I'm done with this thread though.

It's all so simple really... and there is no improbability of a "Guy" who "Lives" some place in the "Sky". (I really don't know why people decided he would be in the sky and not below ground... more bullshit, ya know? Oh wait, but GOD TODL IT SO... but how? OMG FUCK IT, it's too complicated :P)

I bet there are (or are least were.. maybe) religions that think god is underground.

We bury our dead. I wonder what started that trend.

Its cool. Hopefully one day we won't be able to say there are people believing in religion. It could happen. The day all people think for themselves and create their own realities. Play god all by themselves, with no need to admire an external one. Who knows. Thanks for the apology, as you did offend me, lol. And I apologize too for calling you a kid, I think we both weren't being accepting enough and just fed off eachother or something. peas.

The concept of God is just to hard to fathom, like love... maybe that is why we are always in pursuit of it. but I'm done... that is it. It's the only reasonable explaination, to me.

I was thinking the same thing... we are what we make of ourselfs sub-concsiously. How do you know what you see as red, I see as Orange... or just something radically different. This can account for dreams... seeing into another reality? Seeing yourself as someone else perceives you? I don't know...

Love, love, love.
Love, love, love.
Love, love, love.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

Nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love (all together, now!)
All you need is love. (everybody!)
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need (love is all you need).

Yee-hai!
Oh yeah!
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.

The thing is... maybe certain religions are on to something... I see religious people as being unreasonable because God defies reason. But there is no reason for existing... we just do... I mean, unless that reason is to become God. Goddamn!1

people choose their own meaning, there probably isn't even a universal meaning beyond progress, and each person has their own definition of progress. Timothy Leary tried to hook his brain up to a computer to keep it alive after death, phayld though. I think we'll succeed eventually though, if some clumsy scientist doesn't accidently drop one of the many superviruses we create first.

Two things would make us our definition of god, having an eternal conciousness, and being able to create conciousness at will. We're working on both. Because if 'artificial' conciousness made with a computer imitates 'real' conciousness in every way.. how is it artificial?

Lets play the game matrix style baby.

You and me, man... lol I know exactly what you're saying... that is what I believe adn what I ahve believed for some time now. I was even discussing with a friend (Who talks with me about this shit alot) and said that what if we're in the matrix? lol, I mean, who is to say?
