We want to know answers to things, so we can label them, square them away, destroy the natural aspect to understand them to fit how we have been programmed to precept them, <- I got this from Mr. Watts, but i seems to me, a child who is raised by wolves would have the most fascinating conceptions imaginable, pure mental essence, untouched by the "matrix" if you will, i wish i could have met Alan just once

@romanianskill It happens by itself

@maycock1878 complimenting or slating... or simply stating.

[maycock1878]

@romanianskill are you complimenting or slating.............don't really understand your take, I will say something though, he was talking a lot of sense and I don't hear toi many putting this across to the mess that we all allow to take place on a daily basis. I can see whats happening can you!!!!!!!!!

Do not become confused by physics or religion as these are terminologies which can be little more than lenses through which one can choose to experience or perceive the world we share. The world obviously does not become only red when I wear red lenses in my glasses though.

[Earthenenigma]

Energy (Inner~chi) is neither created nor destroyed.

Form and formlessness cannot be quantified only observed in dynamic movement.

This world is built out of myths used by us to explain ourselves to one another. To justify our actions and inactions, as role models to aspire to be more like or despise.

@DNAblues

your the one who does not understand physics.

"Your body rots after death and ultimately transforms into other matter. E-mc2 says nothing about you existing after death."

exactly like i said TRANSFORMS so tell me why you belive you dont live on?

and i brought up E=mc2 because it shows that Energy and mass are the same thing and therfore not only do you live on as mass but as energy.

the problem with you is your degyning youself as your personality or some other concept .

[DNAblues]

@topbluffa1 Don't confuse E=mc2 with religion. Your body rots after death and ultimately transforms into other matter. E-mc2 says nothing about you existing after death.

The only thing worse than not understanding physics is to misuse an equation and claim something else to be true that is totally unrelated to the Theory of Relativity. There is no law of conversation in physics. There is a conversion of energy but that in no way implies that you live on.
