The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride...” But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus - murdered; Martin Luther King - murdered; Malcolm X - murdered; Gandhi - murdered; John Lennon - murdered; Reagan... wounded. But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

that says leave god out of it

so till you find a

nonreligious argument i agree it should be legal

hey at least he got SOMETHING..its about time

He's not getting away with anyone. You know what the good book says.

What you sow you SHALL reap.

Ahhh, a Bush apologist? Do your thing. Convince me he is not the worst President ever.

No spider I was not addressing you at all. I just threw that out there. This thread has been that way. Look at the initial poster.

Why do you ask?

My goodness. Those pants are quite buoyant!

we would have them do unto us? Are we to just blindly love all people we come into conversation or close proximity of? Are we to pick and choose who we care about and don't care about? How do we decide who is worthy of our love? Is it up to us to figure out a way to feed the human race or is it each and every person for themselves? What possible good could come from these questions if no one knows what the answer is? Does anyone know the answer? If you do, are you willing to say it? If not why not? Should man continue to guess at the proper way to deal with murderers and such to get the rest of man not to become murderers and such? Who could possibly know the answers to all of these questions? Is this too many questions to post? Why? Why does there have to be questions in the first place? What was the first Question ever asked and who asked it? Why did they ask it? Who did they ask? What was the answer? Was the answer correct? How do we know if the first answer to the first question was correct or not if there were no other questions to compare it to? Why am I asking these questions? What made me think of all of these questions I am asking? Is it just a curious nature? Am I just trying to be an ass? Am I being successful at it? What exactly is an ass? Is it a donkey? Is it a thing of necessity to sit on? What are we supposed to sit on if we don't have asses? Are we supposed to sit at all? If not, why do we do it? If so why do we bother standing up, so we will get tired and want to sit again? Why are you wasting you time reading this? Are you that bored that you will do something just because it is there to do? Quit.
