And if it were, the religitards would be the first ones running for their lives.

If they've read the buybull, they want no part of that monster. It would make them harvest hemorrhoids to dip in gold, and might even make them eat their children.

It would be just like seeing a child who instead of being told Jessus loves you, was shown the words of Leviticus 26:29. That child could not be drug back into Sunday school.

There is a significance to that you will ignore.
No, it was the words that were used on the freaks answering machine. That would have made it rather easy to "intuit" meaning. It was education which gave the pawn shop owner the ability to discern the meaning of the words he heard playing.

How liberal and progressive and humanist of you.

You are a fraud, "counselor".

Please skip the gym and go make some money. It makes me nervous the government may not be able to send me my social security checks. I think they should raise your taxes.

It's not an imaginative concept, atheists do this everyday (of course most of the time without warning, like in a movie theater, in a high school hallway, malls, university campuses, etc, etc).
To not warn about Hell would be a lie of omission. You would be throwing a shit fit if you were in Hell and never told about it .....but you have been warned .. Your ignorance is your fault.
Chief Joseph of the Nez Percee Indians and a governemtn commissioner on having a government funded school:

"Why do you not want schools?" the commissioner asked.
"They will teach us to have churches," Joseph answered.
"Do you not want churches?"
"No, we do not want churches."
"Why do you not want churches?"
"They will teach us to quarrel about God [translated Great Spirit in other places]," Joseph said. "We do not want to learn that. We may quarrel with men sometimes about things on this earth, but we never quarrel about God. We do not want to learn about that.".

You haven't seen me say anything about magic and those forces. This is indicative of your obsessiveness. It is interesting so much money has been spent by so many scientists and they still haven't been able to tie the forces together.
If you could note, you would realize what I am proposing would tie them together, and actually makes more physical sense than something like the Higg's boson as presented. The simple fact is we had to emerge from another dimension, a branch of something else in order to have what we have. It is most amusing to read your rants about religious magic when you claim matter and energy just popped out of nowhere.
I have been presenting an alternative perspective of what those forces are and how they work. They are based upon those forces of modern science coupled with the physical logic we use all of the time. Far, far from complete, and they tend to come off the top of my head as I post on here. This forum is a doodle pad for me. A few good brains applied to what I am trying to describe and within a very few months things would never be the same. It is just too much for one tired old head and soul. I have the ability to walk out and release energies from this earth of significant effect. But I don't know where to channel them. Be thankful I have progeny.
You worship books, lovey, and fanciful imaginations. You are more suited to those esoteric and mystical groups than true science.
Don't take my fascination with you so personal. I tend to do that with most any woman that isn't fat. Probably some evolutionary thing.
Back to physics. It took an injection of energy from beyond what we can see to get this existence going. As I have said before, we are the result of a seed or egg being fertilized at the end of the day. Right now were are like a chicken getting ready to break out of its shell. Lots of confusion and energy being expended, and slowly being focused to crack the shell.
Or something like that.
Man, a theory of everything, a unified theory, birthed right here on topix. he's not even trying either, he basically just shat out the most important discovery in the history of man - and right after the higgs, this is too much for me. Imagine if he tried! We are witnessing history guys!

Honey, it doesn’t work like that, people don’t take the word of some anonymous guy who is know to fly from the truth a bit (lot).

What you are proposing is pure pseudo science no better than the thoughts of some stoned kid fascinated by the wallpaper. Fine ideas, we all have them, it was said of Churchill that he has 1000 ideas a day but only 2 were any good. How great would you feel if you had even 2 good ideas a lifetime?

Wrong, I read books, quite avidly but in no way worship them, however you are welcome to dream. As for fanciful imagination, I am told that I am a realist although I do not lack imagination I tend to use it for reality based imaginings. But I see from your posts (and your last paragraph here) that your fanciful imagination can get pretty wild.

I hear masturbation can help, probably some evolutionary thing

Fanciful chicken and egg thoughts, meaningless in reality, what was that you were saying about my immagination?

Societies and civilizations are systems. If they aren't put to work with some goal, working in harmony to achieve that goal, the unfocused energy of them is then directed to dismantling that system. A sort of overheating problem.

"I am told that I am a realist although I do not lack imagination I tend to use it for reality based imaginings"

Drop the "based imaginings". Then you are believable.

You are way too emotional to be reality based.

I was quite the avid reader myself. Exhausted more than one library. In high school I read at near 400 words per minute, with no speed reading training, with almost perfect comprehension. In fact, the lowest I have ever scored on comprehension of any sort is in the 98th percentile.

I grok what you are about.

Put down the books and start collating what you have seen. The act of reading stirs some thought in the mind, but it preoccupies it to the degree where you can't really put things together. Such would allow you to even gain a better perspective of how that reading affects you.

I didn't say stop reading, just back off from long writings where the writer's memes take over your thoughts. Those things can be like a bird following bread crumbs. Stop and look around. There may be a cat in the bushes.

Or something like that.
