so all the people who listen to this song i like it, i respect you, and yet there are those fags who listen to that meaningless crap called pop, well this is fuckin music
"Ignorant fibbers in the congregation"? Really? Should have ended with the quite moving part one. I teach writing at the college level, and I can tell you, I would never accept such tripe from my students. I mean, "trials and tribulations." Can one get more cliche? Love Tool; hate 80% of this album.
@rocinante821 He got the lyrics wrong. The real one's can be found on Toolshed(dot)down(dot)net. Obviously, replace the (dots)'s with actual fullstops :)
Awesome! I even had seizures on the floor watching this (complex partial, I wasn't on the floor) in 2006 when I went in Kansas City! I L O V E T O O L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MJK's mother was religious (you just have to listen to his music to know he is not). That being said, pt 1 and 2 are INCREDIBLE homages to his mother and her faith
death is an extremely peacful experience. there comes a point when the pain goes away the fear goes away. it happens real fast at certain point. for me it was the time to get from kent to harborview. i remember going in the double doors. than just black. woke up hours later i suppose. it was amazing addictive if you will.
It's understandable that MJK would be angry for his mother but I don't see the sense in attacking the higher powers that give us life in the first place. Faith can be a hard pill to swallow but is'nt that the whole point of faith? Sadness,guilt,anger & acceptance are the 4 motions which all people will go through when they loose a loved one but faith is the one thing which carries us all through it ! There is no hate & anger in love but we are only human after all! Songs about acceptance mabye?
@whitelight7733 You don't need faith. You need acceptance and time. Faith is just an act of self confidence, and it's never worked for me. Faith can be misguided and certainly can't be fully proved. All we have is our emotions, memories and thoughts and that is what we should fully believe in. Once you accept yourself and the others in your life, you become your own higher power and nothing can take that away even if you die. You can perserve yourself through memories or actions of others.
@srosko I agree, Faith can't be fully proven as Faith=Belief without evedince, but on the contray ain't that the corner stone as to why people choose to have faith? Just like the song by Clannad-"something to believe in!". It helps the human condition to get through times of grief. Time is a good healer for mourners but it's just one of the many elements that weave through the motions of the process. To remember, think & feel are only some gifts which life gives us but to die, well who knows??
I absolutely love 10000 days. i can't see why people should think a band should stay in one place throughout their career. This album was the perfect move forward the way I see it. "Wings for marie 1 and 2" were the last songs from the album I gave much attention, simply because they didn't jump at me right away - yet I find myself getting so moved by the lyrics everytime I hear them
Well.... I never knew it was such a personal tribute, it makes perfect sense, I loved watching this ...really well made..The Art IS hypnotic! Kickass!
I tear up a little every time I hear "tell them their pillar of faith has accended" and from then on I'm holding back Niagara Falls. Possibly the most powerful song I've ever heard.

@lich1313 i am obsessed with tool and i have totally admitted to people that do not understand them that they have made me cry, only cause maynards lyrics are unbelievable and moving. Listen to the song The Humbling River by him (puscifer) thats a moving song
this song and album are amazing just like any other TOOL song and album, its not possible to say which one is the best, they are just very different about style and thematics. They represent the evolution of the band in time and of course they are influenced by the time they made it.
people just say tool sold out because of the song "the pot." I don't blame them for releasing it though i mean everyone was on their case all the time for not having a "#1" and i guess it just bothered them to the point where they had to release more of a "main stream" type song. Because im sure they all sat down at one point and said hey were good an we could make a #1 in our sleep, so lets do it. I went to see them in 2006 and they refused to play the pot. Im guessing for that reason exactly
iI think it's cool that Maynard my hate god with every thing he has/dosent believe in god...but he made this for his mother and hope she got what she wanted...
@ozzy91562 He still belive in a stronger power than ours, not God, god is a things humanity created to explain inexplcable things... there's no budda, God, Satan.
i only pray heaven knows when to lift you out, 10000 days in the fire is long enough, your going home. your the only one who can hold your head up high, shake your fist at the gates saying, "I HAVE COME HOME NOW!" fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father, tell them their pillar of faith has ascended, its time now, MY TIME NOW. GIVE ME MY, GIVE ME MY WINGS!
This song is about his mom who was very sick for 27 years before she died which is 9855 days.. Hence 10,000 days in the fire is long enough, you're going home. Im sure that most tool fans know that but i felt like commenting anyway.
@bigdaddytorr1 To bad he is talking about his mom in a wheel chair. Kinda takes the power out 4me. I kinda feel bad for Maynerd and worse 4 his mom. She has so much faith and he has none. This must have been one of his most difficult songs 2 write about4 him
10 k days and Lateralus are in my opinion two most spiritual and mistical albums Tool has ever recorded. Adam Jones's guitar is just insane and Maynard's voice is pure awesomeness. Anyone who says that Tool sucks or they sold out is just crippled on mind o.o
Maybe faith is believing that there are worse things in life than dying -- that dying is only hard on those left behind. You don't HAVE a soul -- you ARE a soul. You HAVE a body. Perhaps faith lies in trusting that, even though your body dies, your soul lives on.
yeah Judith from a Perfect Circle is a song i can't help to cry on. It also is about his mom dying, and though she had undying faith in god, he still did that to her, he didn't save her. :[ Maynard has been through alot man.
@BANDJAZZY This song, more or less, is like an apology. Him telling her that although it took him this long, he finally understands why she was so faithful. If you take a look at all of Tool's albums as a whole, you'll see how this one is their "realization" album in some way.
yeah im really in to to tool, im only 17 so im not all knowledgeable about them. But they have brought a lot of joy, and true meaning of good music to my 17 years of life, so i enjoy when im educated on such a great band.
dude, dont take this the wrong way but, the fact this his mom had alot of faith and still died.... is a fact of life. you sound accusational over the fact that his mom went through something EVERYONE goes through at some point. we have no idea of what happened to her.... "energy" afterwards though and thats the whole exestential point of this music in my humble opinion. questioning WHILE moving on.
Its called music and unlike most shit and i do mean shit out there, this is very well put, and just because it does happen to everyone in some point in time does not mean it is meaning less. Its his feelings towards it and has the guts to express them unlike most punks out there who think they are tough to act like its nothing that there parents died. But of course ya must be cool cause ya made sure to mention that you are drunk above so yeah. your awesome and dont feel feelings. punk
dude, you obviously misunderstood what i was saying. I was responding to bandjazzy when he said "she loved god but she still died, he still did that to her". i might be a bit callous but not unfeeling. i was simply trying to state that if god saved everyone from death who was faithful. people would be over 1000 years old. that would also be undeniable proof which takes away from faith. its a paradox. dont hate the sky for being blue
for one if its obvious that i miss understood you why would you get bent out of shape about it, two just wondering whats hypocritical about my comment. what i got from your comments was that you were dissing the music, callin him a cry baby for singing about something meaning full. Found the other comment like sry if i miss typed im drunk was kind out there cause what most punks do, talk about bein drunk. sry if a miss understood you but i do think you pull the hypocrit thing out of your ass.
i seriously cant see how Ænima, or Lateralus is any better than 10,000 Days, apart from the fact that the song got a bit longer, it isnt any better, and obviously any worse, i just cant pick what i like better, and i cant see how other people can
this is probaly my 4th favorite Tool album and thats not a dis that just shows how good Tool is, and any Tool fan who thinks this album is weak or they sold out is retarted!
wow Mcbrinkmiester thats really cool of you to say "why respect the opinion of a child" i happen to be 16 and as far as i know i am a human being just like youreselfe who diservs respect so thats why and no im not entering the religeouse debate its not my place to say anything but i was reading it and thought that that comment was rather uncalled for
"set as I am in my ways and my arrogance, burning all through tossed upon non-believers", Maynard has clearly turned a new page in what he believes in..
But I can't explain it all in a youtube comment.. If you could give me a chance to explain, that would be awesome.
Give me a comment on my profile, if you have any questions you'd like to ask.. I'd love to explain the actions of certain christians who would have chased you away from christianity. And I'd love to explain things like why people are going to hell, and why bad things happen in the world.. I myself have been trying to figure this out, and refused to talk to God until I had answers
I was just listening to this and reading the lyrics for the first time, and it makes me really sad.. I'm a christian.. But not the kind who will shovel shit down your throat.. What makes me sad, is that there are so many pricks out there that call themselves christians, and because of those pricks, people are punishing God, and it's sad because God loves everyone dearly. I know this will sound strange when there is hell, and countless horrible things in the world..
I understand your intentions. But I hate to tell you that christianity makes no sense. I could go on all day. Lets start with the fact that the bible gives three different accounts of the crucifixion. As well as 2 totally separate timelines for jesus's life, that are roughly 150 years apart. Or that the old testament is completetly contradictory to the new one. And don't tell me it's because god was trying to show us something with it. I promise you have no idea what happens when you die.
Hmmm.. The thing is man, that there are actually answers for those questions. This is one of the things used by the devil and demons against God (Telling people that they have the answer and they don't need to ask). There are actually four accounts of crucifixion, one in Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John. And that's because those four books, are all the story of Jesus from four different people/perspectives. So it wasn't one person writing some story, it was four different people, who followed Jesus.
(Sorry, ran out of space). So in a court of law, the story of Jesus would actually hold up, because there are four different accounts, four different people seeing the same person do the same things. Those four books are just things that those four particular people witnessed for themselves. As for the 150 years apart, I've never heard that before, and would be interested reading up about it. And for the old testament contridicting the new one, there are some things that don't apply in the new
Yes there are the four different accounts of his disciples. We agree there, the problem is their stories don't match. As for the 150 years apart, One acount says he lived during the time of Pilot, while the other says he lived in the time of Horaditus(Forgive me if that's spelled wrong) who lived 150 after Pilot. So let's also go over the old testament. It's arguably one of the most immoral books in religion. "Stoning your children to death for being rebellious" is never moral unless of
world, because it doesn't happen anymore. In the books of mathew mark luke and john, Jesus mentions things from the old testament alot, in fact he used verses from the old testament to verbally combat the devil, (argueing with the devil would be pointless) because the bible is the word of God, with which Satan cannot argue. But it's a broad subject, if you have any specific contridictions I'd be glad to find out for you.
Do you have msn or something? It'd be alot easier to talk on.
you lived in Old testament times... If he was a loving God I don't think he would condone that type of behavior. There is no point in history when that should ever be considered moral. Or perhaps Joshua telling his army to go and kill all the men of Cannan and take all the women for their pleasure i.e. rape them is what a moral god would do. If you want to believe in a christian god who can't get his story straight, please just understand that he is a sadistic one.
Sweet dude, I'm gonna do some research and ask around about this stuff. I'll tell you what I find later. (The stoning, the Horaditus(?) and Pilot times, and Joshua)
Hey man, I've been looking into Joshua, can't find anything about rape, I've googled all sorts of things (without the word rape), mind showing me where you found this? And same with the pilot and horoditus(?) times, can't find anything about that either.
actually it was the council of Nicea. so the above comment by xwrongwayx is incorrect. but then again, the bible (protestant version, not the catholic version) has been written and rewritten so many times its unreal.
ANYwho, it doesn't really matter. what you have faith in is what you have faith in. as long as your hypocrisy doesn't smother it, its all good. and I think that's in the message of this song too.
dude, when they finally wrote the gospels the four individuals were in they're 60's or something, of course they're gonna get some things a bit off! give them credit for getting some of it right!
That's the point! If this was the WORD OF GOD!!! then it couldn't be subject to mans imperfection. That would defeat the whole point of making it the word of GOD!
whether or not, it was made by Him, or inspired by Him, doesn't really matter in the end! it still contains intensely usable wisdom which can be used in daily life even today.
If its usable then it isn't at fault!
"love thy enemy"
"forgive/forget"
"love"
"peace"
if it was fully inspired by man then wouldn't it say what man wants to hear?
instead of something that contrasts our very nature?
it's psychologically, counter-active to our very nature!
love, peace, forget and forgive were by no means inspired by god you fool, if they were then how would they have existed before christianity? and forget is a pretty poor example of 'intensely usable wisdom' (a phrase i assume simply means usable wisdom). How is peace or loving contradictory to our nature, or forgetting?(face it 'forget' was a shit choice of word). forgiveness has also always been demonstrated by humans. What would it say if it was what man wanted to hear?
it is still wisdom! who cares if it existed before, its like you complaining about two text books saying the same thing! its pointless!
You can't seriously tell me a grudge is healthy can you? if you forgive your enemy, and forget what he has done to you, then there is no more conflict (at least from your point of view!)
as far as contridictive? it is way easier to hate then it is to love! examples: War, discrimination, segregation, genecide, the first using of atomic technology was a bomb!
you'll find an invalid point located in the first sentence of this post. The last sentence is insidious and stupid, you're welcome to be a natural hater but humans naturally ostracise your kind because all you do is impede the loving way we have evolved, the co operative method we employ to gain the advantages of specialist assistance and protection. and to be honest this whole post does nothing to justify saying it is the word of god.
have I mentioned G-d in the last couple of posts? No! That conversation ended a while ago! I can only imagine you are saying that because you find me to be a close minded fanatic, when really you aren't exactly respecting the idea of someone having an opposing opinion!
'the fool'? who said there was one?, maybe we both are foolish, i certainly feel it for even typing back to you because so little of what you say actually answers what i argue. and yes this is still about god, we haven't just left that as inconclusive we simply deviated for a moment on some ridiculous branching topic. Sorry if this pointless exercise strains your attention capabilities.
well i am 16. Why do you presume i am older?, some more religious logic? haha i used that phrase just to point out your lack of respect for me (very hurtful) is as pointless and unjustified as the whole argument. We've gone so far off topic i cant be bothered, i think im now replying to a reply to a reply that was midway through the argument, this is just gonna branch out and we're not gonna end it, so yes i would argue we should stop right now.
I don't, I simply realized that you were acting in the same manner that I would at that age in an argument! Also you keep bringing up a topic that I had with another guy and you stepped in and called me a fool! So really you act young! That was not your argument to have! We have not gone off topic, that was someone else's topic and we started another one. you simply wanted to have THAT argument. I will stop seeing as the argument was with someone else, it really is pointless to have it with you!
it would say "do what you want", or, "everything's just fine!" from what I have seen in humanity, we don't exactly say, "evolve, and be brotherly to everything around you!"
it's in our nature to:
fear what we don't understand
Hate what we fear
kill what we hate!
if it weren't for any kind of direction from anything
did you have to post so much?, look i'm not gonna read ro reply except for this because all i can see is a few misspelt words and an invalid point. But i still stand by your god whichever one it is being irrelevant.
probably 'or'. I have a sneaky suspicion you're gonna mention my comment on your misspelling, feel free i dont have the time to listen to you any more. And that 'fear what we dont understand...' is bullcrap, they are a chain of qualities more commonly exhibited by faithful mindless fanaticals than logical people, men and women who aren't actually blind to things like cosmic probabilities or the dangers of ignorance(referencing the quote, not religion before you babble)
If you call someone a fool, you better expect a conflict! its a common human reaction! and you still haven't apologized, which means I have no reason to respect your opinion!
burdon of proof tossed upon non believers* but close and yours is pretty deep anyone. Actually pretty fuckin nice :D i prefer burning all through. Assif he's in hell burning amongst non believers whilst his mother was his light. but yeh gj on the song, lyrics and psychadelic image remix mate :)
so all the people who listen to this song i like it, i respect you, and yet there are those fags who listen to that meaningless crap called pop, well this is fuckin music

yeah Judith from a Perfect Circle is a song i can't help to cry on. It also is about his mom dying, and though she had undying faith in god, he still did that to her, he didn't save her. :[ Maynard has been through alot man.

@BANDJAZZY This song, more or less, is like an apology. Him telling her that although it took him this long, he finally understands why she was so faithful. If you take a look at all of Tool's albums as a whole, you'll see how this one is their "realization" album in some way.

FUUPTHEA 2 years ago
dude, dont take this the wrong way but, the fact this his mom had alot of faith and still died.... is a fact of life. you sound accusational over the fact that his mom went through something EVERYONE goes through at some point. we have no idea of what happened to her.... "energy" afterwards though and thats the whole exestential point of this music in my humble opinion. questioning WHILE moving on.

huh? im was just stating what the song was about, so what are you saying???
BANDJAZZY 2 years ago
Its called music and unlike most shit and i do mean shit out there, this is very well put, and just because it does happen to everyone in some point in time does not mean it is meaning less. Its his feelings towards it and has the guts to express them unlike most punks out there who think they are tough to act like its nothing that there parents died. But of course ya must be cool cause ya made sure to mention that you are drunk above so yeah. your awesome and dont feel feelings. punk
churchdcta 2 years ago
dude, you obviously misunderstood what i was saying. I was responding to bandjazzy when he said "she loved god but she still died, he still did that to her". i might be a bit callous but not unfeeling. i was simply trying to state that if god saved everyone from death who was faithful. people would be over 1000 years old. that would also be undeniable proof which takes away from faith. its a paradox. dont hate the sky for being blue

Found the other comment like sry if i miss typed im drunk was kind out there cause what most punks do, talk about bein drunk. sry if a miss understood you but i do think you pull the hypocrit thing out of your ass.

Give me a comment on my profile, if you have any questions you'd like to ask.. I'd love to explain the actions of certain christians who would have chased you away from christianity. And I'd love to explain things like why people are going to hell, and why bad things happen in the world.. I myself have been trying to figure this out, and refused to talk to God until I had answers
Shibby5404 2 years ago
Hey guys..
I was just listening to this and reading the lyrics for the first time, and it makes me really sad.. I'm a christian.. But not the kind who will shovel shit down your throat.. What makes me sad, is that there are so many pricks out there that call themselves christians, and because of those pricks, people are punishing God, and it's sad because God loves everyone dearly. I know this will sound strange when there is hell, and countless horrible things in the world..
Shibby5404 2 years ago
I understand your intentions. But I hate to tell you that christianity makes no sense. I could go on all day. Lets start with the fact that the bible gives three different accounts of the crucifixion. As well as 2 totally separate timelines for jesus's life, that are roughly 150 years apart. Or that the old testament is completetly contradictory to the new one. And don't tell me it's because god was trying to show us something with it. I promise you have no idea what happens when you die.
jlmvp34 2 years ago
Hmmm.. The thing is man, that there are actually answers for those questions. This is one of the things used by the devil and demons against God (Telling people that they have the answer and they don't need to ask). There are actually four accounts of crucifixion, one in Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John. And that's because those four books, are all the story of Jesus from four different people/perspectives. So it wasn't one person writing some story, it was four different people, who followed Jesus.
Shibby5404 2 years ago
(Sorry, ran out of space). So in a court of law, the story of Jesus would actually hold up, because there are four different accounts, four different people seeing the same person do the same things. Those four books are just things that those four particular people witnessed for themselves. As for the 150 years apart, I've never heard that before, and would be interested reading up about it. And for the old testament contridicting the new one, there are some things that don't apply in the new
Shibby5404 2 years ago
Yes there are the four different accounts of his disciples. We agree there, the problem is their stories don't match. As for the 150 years apart, One acount says he lived during the time of Pilot, while the other says he lived in the time of Horaditus(Forgive me if that's spelled wrong) who lived 150 after Pilot. So let's also go over the old testament. It's arguably one of the most immoral books in religion. "Stoning your children to death for being rebellious" is never moral unless of
jlmvp34 2 years ago
world, because it doesn't happen anymore. In the books of mathew mark luke and john, Jesus mentions things from the old testament alot, in fact he used verses from the old testament to verbally combat the devil, (argueing with the devil would be pointless) because the bible is the word of God, with which Satan cannot argue. But it's a broad subject, if you have any specific contridictions I'd be glad to find out for you.
Do you have msn or something? It'd be alot easier to talk on.
Shibby5404 2 years ago
you lived in Old testament times... If he was a loving God I don't think he would condone that type of behavior. There is no point in history when that should ever be considered moral. Or perhaps Joshua telling his army to go and kill all the men of Cannan and take all the women for their pleasure i.e. rape them is what a moral god would do. If you want to believe in a christian god who can't get his story straight, please just understand that he is a sadistic one.
jlmvp34 2 years ago
Sweet dude, I'm gonna do some research and ask around about this stuff. I'll tell you what I find later. (The stoning, the Horaditus(?) and Pilot times, and Joshua)
Shibby5404 2 years ago
Hey man, I've been looking into Joshua, can't find anything about rape, I've googled all sorts of things (without the word rape), mind showing me where you found this? And same with the pilot and horoditus(?) times, can't find anything about that either.

ummm dont forget how the kings of england rewrote the bible as they saw fit.

actually it was the council of Nicea. so the above comment by xwrongwayx is incorrect. but then again, the bible (protestant version, not the catholic version) has been written and rewritten so many times its unreal.
ANYwho, it doesn't really matter. what you have faith in is what you have faith in. as long as your hypocrisy doesn't smother it, its all good. and I think that's in the message of this song too.

Mcbrinkmiester 2 years ago
That's the point! If this was the WORD OF GOD!!! then it couldn't be subject to mans imperfection. That would defeat the whole point of making it the word of GOD!
jlmvp34 2 years ago
whether or not, it was made by Him, or inspired by Him, doesn't really matter in the end! it still contains intensely usable wisdom which can be used in daily life even today.
If its usable then it isn't at fault!
"love thy enemy"
"forgive/forget"
"love"
"peace"
if it was fully inspired by man then wouldn't it say what man wants to hear?
instead of something that contrasts our very nature?
it's psychologically, counter-active to our very nature!
if we wrote it fully it wouldn't be!
Mcbrinkmiester 2 years ago
love, peace, forget and forgive were by no means inspired by god you fool, if they were then how would they have existed before christianity? and forget is a pretty poor example of 'intensely usable wisdom' (a phrase i assume simply means usable wisdom). How is peace or loving contradictory to our nature, or forgetting?(face it 'forget' was a shit choice of word). forgiveness has also always been demonstrated by humans. What would it say if it was what man wanted to hear?
OmnipotentGodOfAll 2 years ago
it is still wisdom! who cares if it existed before, its like you complaining about two text books saying the same thing! its pointless!
You can't seriously tell me a grudge is healthy can you? if you forgive your enemy, and forget what he has done to you, then there is no more conflict (at least from your point of view!)
as far as contridictive? it is way easier to hate then it is to love! examples: War, discrimination, segregation, genecide, the first using of atomic technology was a bomb!
Mcbrinkmiester 2 years ago
you'll find an invalid point located in the first sentence of this post. The last sentence is insidious and stupid, you're welcome to be a natural hater but humans naturally ostracise your kind because all you do is impede the loving way we have evolved, the co operative method we employ to gain the advantages of specialist assistance and protection. and to be honest this whole post does nothing to justify saying it is the word of god.
OmnipotentGodOfAll 2 years ago
have I mentioned G-d in the last couple of posts? No! That conversation ended a while ago! I can only imagine you are saying that because you find me to be a close minded fanatic, when really you aren't exactly respecting the idea of someone having an opposing opinion!
and after reading your last comment...
How am I the fool?
Mcbrinkmiester 2 years ago
'the fool'? who said there was one?, maybe we both are foolish, i certainly feel it for even typing back to you because so little of what you say actually answers what i argue. and yes this is still about god, we haven't just left that as inconclusive we simply deviated for a moment on some ridiculous branching topic. Sorry if this pointless exercise strains your attention capabilities.
OmnipotentGodOfAll 2 years ago
"love, peace, forget and forgive were by no means inspired by god you fool"
you said that, and I didn't even start the conversation! Religious logic? What the fuck does that mean??
I tried to stop that conversation a while ago, but you keep bringing it up! Why?
its not "religious logic"! Respect is earned, but you have done little to gain mine! All you have done is attack after attack after attack!
you are a child because you have not admitted that you are at fault!
you act like a 16 year old!
Mcbrinkmiester 2 years ago
well i am 16. Why do you presume i am older?, some more religious logic? haha i used that phrase just to point out your lack of respect for me (very hurtful) is as pointless and unjustified as the whole argument. We've gone so far off topic i cant be bothered, i think im now replying to a reply to a reply that was midway through the argument, this is just gonna branch out and we're not gonna end it, so yes i would argue we should stop right now.
OmnipotentGodOfAll 2 years ago
I don't, I simply realized that you were acting in the same manner that I would at that age in an argument! Also you keep bringing up a topic that I had with another guy and you stepped in and called me a fool! So really you act young! That was not your argument to have! We have not gone off topic, that was someone else's topic and we started another one. you simply wanted to have THAT argument. I will stop seeing as the argument was with someone else, it really is pointless to have it with you!

it would say "do what you want", or, "everything's just fine!" from what I have seen in humanity, we don't exactly say, "evolve, and be brotherly to everything around you!"
it's in our nature to:
fear what we don't understand
Hate what we fear
kill what we hate!

we would have died out long ago!

probably 'or'. I have a sneaky suspicion you're gonna mention my comment on your misspelling, feel free i dont have the time to listen to you any more. And that 'fear what we dont understand...' is bullcrap, they are a chain of qualities more commonly exhibited by faithful mindless fanaticals than logical people, men and women who aren't actually blind to things like cosmic probabilities or the dangers of ignorance(referencing the quote, not religion before you babble)
OmnipotentGodOfAll 2 years ago
