Hmm, where to approach this idea. First, I'm throwing in with there is infinite parallel universes. As to why - well though scientists try I've heard some claim yes others claim no, although it seems to be gaining popularity. But doesn't infinity never end? So doesn't that make calculating it somewh...

I have real trouble responding to these threads when they get more than a page or two of responses in any way that fully addresses the original questions and includes the ongoing additions to the material....so I'm going to consolidate my thoughts on death a page or two at a time in segments that hi...

Ok, WOW Wandering - i couldn't really summon a wholehearted look at a lot of that stuff, and it's making my head swim just to think of how you consolidated it in this threat. I can say that all the different little goodies of truth I seemed to notice in it in skimming in it both really neat, and kin...

Oh, a final note and the comment that started my own analysis, not to mention i don't mean to post after myself? But I do have to point out, Hex, when you tell someone they don't comprehend reality, you are rather implying logically, whether you intend to or not that you do. And I think comprehendin...

Oh my, i just can't really help myself today, most things i hear, i'm too tempted to express myself about. First the video held my interest for a good 8 minutes, then I skipped to a few points and heard a bit more. As much as I very much can't agree with Hex's tone (at it again, eh?) or that his onl...

hmmm to that insert I'll say quite full of distinctions between different the different willingness people have to be aware (or not aware, or not aware of being aware) but perhaps the trickest part is that I think there's probably many states of partial awareness and trying to be aware exactly which...

perhaps that issue is small yes, but bob I believe is trying to draw a line in the sand against a government he feels is eroding his freedom - as I said I look at society in general as the compromise between "freedom" -which in it's extreme unqualified form is also complete anarchy and eve...

lmao, as long as I am existing that is a true statement, as I see it one of the way part of us can die is whenever we stop learning - to learn and grow is to live

Hmmm you do raise some intense issues don't you. Starting at the top and quite obviously it is a major embarrassment to any society, military force, culture, and even species that this is not only a behavior that keeps recurring now, but really even that anytime ever it was a behavior that was condo...

I'm going with choice myself too - although though your passion on this one might preclude it I'll admit the possibility of the other view through, though the probability of it is so miniscule, it's beyond the kind of decimal extension I can even remember the prefix for. Either way for me each answe...

Oh, you again hehe :) Well I suppose that's an argument for the constitutional experts and lawyers, but one that thousands of times the government has one and generally always will. Myself, I'm not so worried about it that it bothers me, time marches on, laws change, standards improve, sometimes in ...

Gee....how disappointing...although in all your random 10 word denials it's rather hard to identify if it was an analogy or not - from how you arbitrarily decide which parts of my ideas are glaring examples of how I can't reason and lack some kind of intelligence or insight, why wouldn't I equally t...

Thank you

I was unaware you're a Baptist....but either way in the reference you made you think it's factors beyond people's control that compromise their ability to choose to "suffer evil" as a approach to living?

Hmmmm, religious? not at all, that's where many dislike how I define consciousness, I don't think it comes from God - or from magical "nonlocal" (which is rather gibberish to me) I think consciousness is an inherent quality that expresses itself in different forms through the many highly c...
