  • all i heard was aughhhhhh ehh aughhhhhhh

  • From what is visible it looks like the guy is controlling a mouse cursor with his mind. (Allready been done before). He speaks by moving the mouse onto a vocal tone outlined on the screen. Obviously he wouldn't be able to say much more than a few words.

    Please reply if I am wrong.

  • um longer more descriptive videos plz.

  • um WTF?? was that sounds like pong or Steven Hawking!!!

  • would be more useful if it could translate his brain signals to IMAGES! let me know when you figure out how to do that.

  • this sounds like he`s saying "this i speak"

  • omg lol . i guess i'm such a bandie that i just can't not make that typo . XD;;;;;

  • scuse me . big band theory .

  • satan ? god ? JESUS ? what happened to science ? XD;;;; tell me how a higher being with supernatural powers could possibly exist , huh ? i like the big band theory . XD;;;

  • Ok I will explain you say man is evil yes i agree

    laws are for what the just? no the lawless!

    Ok now the reason he is the root of all evil was cause he caused sin to enter into the world

    now Jesus said i am not here for the good.

    he was here to teach the world to repent and belive in him for he came to save the world of our sins

    cause we are all sinners and no man can present himself before god after death cause you have been corrupted of the devil

  • Well, who decided that the Devil is the root of all evil?

    uhh now i would have to say this is more relevant to my arguement

  • Well, who decided that the Devil is the root of all evil? With no prof of his existence. I personally believe people are the ones who are evil and not some made up guy in red. I had always felt like we made up an imaginary character to take the blame for our stupid hateful acts. This is a subject that has been debated for years. *shrug* but whatever the world is good and bad.
