Philosophy - February 2007

I am probably the most mediocre person in the world i live in. Not too rich, not too poor, not too smart, not too dumb, not too handsome, not too ugly... I always get B-grade marks, never an A... Always comes up second or third in love and competition... Although i'm not last, am I still a LOSER? what is the advantage of being a slightly-above-average guy?

I believe that mankind will never be free until we reject morality and religion.

Religions are simply false tales told about imaginary invisible men to keep people mentaly sedated while the powers above us make off with our hard earned money and riches.

Not that money and riches are much better - mankind is also being held hostage by his desire for wealth, status and riches - which coincidentaly is the driving force behind Capitalism.

Do Not Covet your neighbor's possessions?
ISN'T THAT WHAT CAPITALISM IS ALL ABOUT? Isn't purchasing of well advertised products (or keeping up with the Jones') what keeps America's well oiled supply & demand system afloat?

Reject your belief in whatever invisible man you believe in.

Reject your desire for gold and spinning rims.

Reject the lies and BS that you've been handfed since you were a child ( Santa Clause, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, etc)

Take a minute and dream it up. Is there anything that is currently keeping you from accomplishing this vision?

What kind of effect has our evolving technology had on the environment? Our resourses? Human morality? Family values? What has happened to our society?

TECHNOLOGY - and it's pervasive impact on everything we do.

Let me simplify and explain.

Our society has come farther in the last 100 years, in the realm of technology, than any society of mankind in the history of the world. Statistics will dictate that when you have a rapid rise in any area, eventually you will hit a "peak" and after that the tides will turn and what was a rise, will be a rapid fall.

It is my belief that technology has stolen just as much as it has given, and our ability to create and use anything we wish to attain whatever we want, as a culture, will back fire on us and be the utter downfall and obliteration of what our society has become.

What are your thoughts on technology as it applies to environment, social ability, and morality in America?

Do people ever stop thinking? If you are dead, do you still think in the afterlife? Eygiptians believed that when you died then you were in an afterlife with your stuff. Can people stop thinking? If you stop thinking then apparently you forget how to breath. Do people ever stop thinking?

do you think it is weird that a lot of people dont talk? like when you sit in your college class and you see people walk in and they walk by everyone in total silence? or when you pass people on the street and nothing is said? or when people ask people out and they just ignore them and dont say anything?

Is it possible, with relentless determination, to reach a constant state of zen? If so, would that be healthy? Does one need to experience all emotions randomly, including periodic chaos, throughout life in order to achieve the real zen?

Let's assume, for a moment, that everything that happens is destiny and there's nothing you can do to change it. Would someone suffer consequences for recognizing that, and altering their behavior in a negative way based on that opinion. Would it be okay because that is the destiny of that person, or would it be inappropriate ignorance?

Perhaps it would help if you're able to figure out for yourself what a "Yahoo" actually is.

of course the more the better

but if you are single , as for you

to be happy how many dollars you need monthly

people tell " money shouldnt be your goal of life ",

"money cant buy love "

" money is not necessarily needed (indispensable) for happiness"

but nobody tells frankly and specifically if you earn monthly 1000$ or 800$ or 20000$ , its enough.

if I MAY , I WANT to hear honest frank answer ,

I AM SINGLE, 29 old I earn about 1800$ monthly ( I open first. ) and I am not happy enough.

so I always think about money and try every day , but sometimes I WONDER I became already the slave of money.

Is it all a meaningless comedy being played out on a small planet speeding through the universe? Why do we bother? Why do we care?

should limitations be set on how far you will go to find 'it'?

Why or why not? What are YOUR limitations, realistically speaking?

A man enters a grocery store in china and orders egg noodles,but there are no chickens at the front counter due to a shortege in feathers, would the pillow company in fact switch to synthetic fibers or would Al gore stop them and order wool pillows in triplicate under section 33A-b4t of the paperwork reduction act , until the folks at greenpeace put a stop to that and have several stoned hippes handcuff themselves to a log in Wilimina ,Oregon,
