From Carolyn Hax, the advice columnist in the Washington Post:You can't make everyone grow up, but you can at least show them how it's done. If nothing else, make sure you would be grateful to have the parents you're about to become. Worry is a way of skipping the waiting for something bad to happen and making yourself unhappy right now.

This about sums it up.

"Nothing"

"the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts"

"Nothing"

The connotation used by temporal beings to describe their sensations of thier moment to moment mental states of ignorance.
-1+1=0 1= awareness -1 = illusions,distractions,ignorance, noise. We experience nothing as noise to the vision of each of our individual truth, for the temporal being inheritantly cannot see the whole truth so it must create a beginning, it's existence is defined by parameters of time and space so outside those parameters nothing exist.

that whole philosophical inquiry runs into the stumbling block of the fact that words are merely a way to convey ideas and images and that they do a p*ss poor job of it. First off, how can you be sure if nothing means the same from person to person if it is impossible for you to truly understand it from a different perspective.

The parameters exist out of the birth of the human mind's instinctual need to rationalize, to quantify, and to give meaning to things that have none. Which further gives rise to humanity need to find meaning in its own puny existance. To give infinite meaning to something that has none.

So to make a generalization about something you cannot hope to completely understand and quantify, other beings, is silly.

Human beings are like circles that can only meet at one point.

If nothing is as you say, nothing, then it cannot give noise to the vision of an individual's twisted "truth". What more, why do you think there needs to be a whole truth. A beginning of what? What's existance?

It would seem you are implying in the end that the answer to the age old question of, "if a tree falls and no one is around to hear it. Wwill it make a noise?" Is 'no'.

And why say "temporal being"? Are you saying "humanity" only in such a way as to convey the air of an 'expert'?

Ah, ignore theoneiuse Fedr, he's a nutjob.

Even nothing is something!

When our minds are realigned with the universal field of awareness then you will know what others truly feel there will be no barrier of subjectivity but at this moment you cannot know that is correct. If you knew all the things that belong to you things you may have had but did not claim because of your ignorance of their existence or the ignorance of the process of having them materialize then those things may have bin great and those great things would be part of whole truth that you refuse to claim by allowing ignorance to take it's place. The beginning I am referring to the creation of time and space. All our ignorance tell a story to read this story we must illuminate those areas of darkness. So before we were ignorant we had a unified conscience, every patch of ignorance is like a scar breaking the true cohesion of the unified field of conscience and that field is the true inherited Jules of our bieng. So because we experience our new form of consciousness in the form of time and space there are temporal events that has cause mass ignorance. Such as the destruction of the tower of Babel. Events as such that take place create gaping holes in our energy bodies now we must repair inevitably we will repair it. Now as we do just that we learn the story of all the events that caused us to lose it in the first place. We live
in the electronic universe -1. So ignorance is caused by undefined forces that distort the code of our perfect logic. If a tree falls and no one is around it certainly makes a sound but due to our ignorance of that sound is did not exist to us.

But there is no universal field of awareness. Just your self delusion.

We have never had a unified conscious. Your romantic era theories are silly and delusional.

Your entire theory speaks to your sense of loss, hopelessness, delusion, and false sense of superiority in a world where you are insignificant.

Your ignorance is incredible.

"Consciousness"

faster than the speed of light

Awareness in humans, defined as generated reaction to an impinging stimulus, takes about a tenth of a second in the brains of the fastest people, and covers at most about 10 cm of cross-brain distance in any given direction. That would be 3600 kilometers per hour, or something in the neighborhood of 2000 mph as a rough estimate.

That's pretty fast.

Consciousness, defined as the generation of meaning (yielding the ability to begin to ask "where am I", say) takes about 1.5 seconds and covers about 20 cm in general, for about 300 mph as a rough estimate.

That's slower than the speed of sound, which may explain why so few musicians can think and play at the same time.

Truly you mean the best and to help me find my way out of my delusion. Superiority is boring why have people if you cannot love them, if you donot understand them. I must humbly appologise if my demeanor came of as arrogant. I am truly humbled and must admit I did not know much about people at first I
saw them as a threat and felt that they must feel the frequencies of the energy attacks they manifested towards my being. The more I understand them the more I realize I love them if they are to be removed I will take no part in doing so. In fact I care about them now and when I am given the chance I will defend them.

For the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts

"Time"

If one was equal to infinity and you were you were .1 then it would take you 10 "times" to equal infinity, if you were equal to one being infinity then It would be no "time" for you to equal infinity, instead you are -1 and will never equal infinity now you must experience it as "time"

"light"

The personified pen of creation

If there was only one word that was not known, and that word was the inspiration of all words, then would you not have to learn every word before you can identify that unknown word? Well if that word was infinity to find it would take time. Now every word is just a transformation of that unknown word. So that unknown word is in every word. Then every word must be infinite lacking true infinite that what is the unknown word.


Well what about the electron? If its position is temporal does it truly exist? If it's position cannot change then is it not real? If you can't find the square root then what's the point? Four points short cutting a corner by way of hypotenuse. Aha I realize but I am not realization.

What do you think that you can learn from that?

Let's not make this about me and focus on other quotes. You acusing me of being a fool means nothing if I have no respect for your intellect. You will eventual get what you want I will leave here at some point when I feel to. When your name has enough value to enter to history books as more than a footnote then at least you may have a little originality. I would rather be a fool just the way I am then be like you, in fact I would sooner experience my own mortal demise than to live one instant as the person you are proud to be.

I do not hate you, I do not hate anyone. The problem is you are boring and uninteresting, you lack the ability to stimulate my cognition. Please don't waste my time if you are as intellectually concrete as your braggard ego then tell me what makes you unique?

When your name has enough value to enter to history books as more than a footnote then at least you may have a little originality.
Ah, another (false) assumption.
What makes you think my name isn't already in the books?

(Not history, admittedly, as that isn't particularly my field, but still...)

When your name has enough value to enter to history books as more than a footnote then at least you may have a little originality

How do you know that it hasn't been done already?

What is your claim to fame by the way? :shrug:

It is better the hold the element of surprise than to give it up just to satisfy my own ego. I need not prove myself to you, I am satisfied with you perceiving me a fool. You accuse me of having no proof to back up claims that I have made. I have looked at all your arguments of so called proof you used to belittle my claims, you post them as if it was the first time that I have seen them. You believe I don't not understand the logic as to why the current status quo perpetuated false conlusions seemingly ignorant of their own flaw. Fair enough believe what you will. now consider this;

Actually, the thought about electricity came before atoms. In about 600 B.C. Thales of Miletus discovered that a piece of amber, after rubbing it with fur, attracts bits of hair and feathers and other light objects. He suggested that this mysterious force came from the amber. Thales, however, did not connect this force with any atomic particle.

Not until around 460 B.C., did a Greek philosopher, Democritus, develop the idea of atoms. He asked this question: If you break a piece of matter in half, and then break it in half again, how many breaks will you have to make before you can break it no further? Democritus thought that it ended at some point, a smallest possible bit of matter. He called these basic matter particles, atoms.

Unfortunately, the atomic ideas of Democritus had no lasting effects on other Greek philosophers, including Aristotle. In fact, Aristotle dismissed the atomic idea as worthless. People considered Aristotle's opinions very important and if Aristotle thought the atomic idea had no merit, then most other people thought the same also. (Primates have great mimicking ability.)

For more than 2000 years nobody did anything to continue the explorations that the Greeks had started into the nature of matter. Not until the early 1800's did people begin again to question the structure of matter.

In the 1800's an English chemist, John Dalton performed experiments with various chemicals that showed that matter, indeed, seem to consist of elementary lumpy particles (atoms). Although he did not know about their structure, he knew that the evidence pointed to something fundamental.

Actually, the thought about electricity came before atoms.
This is incorrect.
The observation of (the effects of) electricity came before the theory (or hypothesis) of atoms.
This is usual in science.


Unfortunately, the atomic ideas of Democritus had no lasting effects on other Greek philosophers, including Aristotle. In fact, Aristotle dismissed the atomic idea as worthless.

Let me guess...
Oh wait, I don't need to.

If it was meant for you to know then you will know. I grow tiresome of explainations I do not require you to believe me. Alas perceptions of the truth will always be an oxymoron. All temporal observers exist only to gain objective clarity some or most completey ignorant of the fact.

In other words it was a non-sequitur piece of nonsense.


Alas perceptions of the truth will always be an oxymoron.
As is that.


All temporal observers exist only to gain objective clarity some or most completey ignorant of the fact.
And that.

Then it is what it is, just be happy that you are not me, because I am happy I am not you.

because I am happy I am not you.
Another fail.
If you were me then I couldn't be me. So there wouldn't be a me (as me) for you to be me.

All the more reason why you should be pleased

I note you fail to understand the point.

If I did fail to get the point then I would be you, as you have said that is impossible.

You're not very good at parsing logic are you?

Are you implying that was not your point so then what was your point? Enlighten me.

The point is that you could not, ever, be me.
Having given you that you may now go back at re-read my post.

Another fail.

Now THAT is seriously profound..:p

There's a similar one (although I understand that I'm not the only one that's come up with it) is when someone (a busybody) declares "If I were you I wouldn't do that" to which my reply has always been "But I am already me, and I am doing it so you're wrong".

The point is that you could not, ever, be me.
Having given you that you may now go back at re-read my post.

Well that about proves my point, that it is you that has missed the point as usual. what I said is what you meant by your comment was it was impossible for me to be you. So if I was you then I would be the one missing the point which you always seem to miss the point. Is that plain enough for your comprehension as you have proven again to miss the point.

Well that about proves my point, that it is you that has missed the point as usual. what I said is what you meant by your comment was it was impossible for me to be you.
Not quite:

If I did fail to get the point then I would be you
Yes, there is another part of that sentence but it doesn't make sense with regard to the quoted portion. Maybe you should work on, among other things, your command of English.


So if I was you then I would be the one missing the point which you always seem to miss the point.
Except for the slight problem (your problem) that the point was made by me in the first place.

Perhaps I lack the ability to communicate but you lack the ability to compensate and comprehend always missing my point. Mayby it is better that way that I am unable to communicate I am also glad you think am a fool, now if even I had the ability to communicate I will never do so coherently to give you a chance to comprehend. The irony of your comment of me lacking a command on english is I would have it no other way. Move on if I am such a fool don't waste your time trying to help me, you are predictable and your buttons can be easily pushed.

Perhaps I lack the ability to communicate but you lack the ability to compensate and comprehend always missing my point.
On the contrary. Your failure to state exactly, and precisely, what you meant gave several possible options as to meaning. After nearly giving up altogether I decided that the first clause of that sentence was what I would reply to, since some of possibilities were mutually contradictory.
One cannot "compensate" when there are multiple possible meanings. :rolleyes:

Well that is the reason as to why I use rhetoric in such a manner I am lonely and angry but making great efforts to overcome my inner demons. I donot want to push the button I know it is wrong sometimes I feel that humanity will deserve it but that is wrong, I am wrong for there is many that are truly innocent and should not share the fate of the rest. When there is many interpretations to a message that has bin transmitted then the correct person will get the interpretation I truly intended but that never happens and I will never change so I am destined to live a life of solitude.

Reportedly from a Czech Newspaper, but the origin of this quote is under dispute with at least one source (http://flattopshistorywarpolitics.yuku.com/topic/1315) claiming it originated on an American blog. Regardless of where it originally came from, I like it:

" The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president".

I feel that it means that you never really know anything about anything until you know all things and that if you stop at what is considered a natural life and/or natural behaviour, then you will never truly experience what nature is.
