[00Mayes]

This is one of my favorite songs. Off of both albums. Both great artists

@easyBful More views doesn't mean anything, I don't even know Nicki besides her feat. on Kanye's last album. But I like music which can be rock, hiphop, soul, jazz and so on, just avoid the hypes (pop). That's also why I don't watch commercial tv stations (or all those useless talentshows) and I don't have social media. I'm just on the web to find something special, like The Roots. Not sure if they're nominated for the Grammys, if so, they should win it although they didn't last year.

@TheKt32 I agree with you, but the same reason as to why we throw faith should be removed. Faith is no more than a defense mechanism.It's necessary to make things not absurd, through reason.

@AdventEdge While you may not have existed in 1890 upon your death, existence does not cease, for there will still be memories of your existence. In a sense we are only ever what those remember of us, and this uncertainty is unsettling.

I would agree with that, and I think this is done because of fear of the final liminality. However, I think human nature is to throw faith at things which seem absurd, for living is absurd and therefore life is "validated" when one has faith in its absurdities.

@TheKt32

To put it in the perspective of Penn Jillette, why would I be afraid of death? If I was not afraid of 1890 when I did not exist, what would I have to fear from the same fate?

And I'm frustrated with how people blindly approach things with blatant superstition and paranoia instead of reasoning and logic, I'm vexed by this form of idiocy because it has been proven to be dangerous time and time again. So yes, I'm fucking mad that people are still going on about this 'illuminati' tripe.
