But leave the Wise to wrangle, and with me
The Quarrel of the Universe let be:
And, in some corner of the Hubbub coucht,
Make Game of that which makes as much of Thee.

Yeah, I was wondering when somebody'd get to that one...


So long and thanks for all the fish!

Yeah, I got that, too...Only problem I have is the term "life force" is just such a pathetically lacking term. I feel like someday I'll learn Japanese and they will have a word that just sums it up so much better. That and Star Wars turned "The Force" into some laughable glam magic trick and I just can't take it seriously now.

I dunno when I developed this idea, but I've always thought time was a circle- there is no beginning and no end, just one thing after another after another and so on and so forth until things eventually reboot. Like the classic egg-chicken-egg delima- the egg is at one end of the circle and the chicken is at the other.

And as to souls, I've always thought all our souls get reincarnated continually- not necessarily "growing", just recycled, and it probably works backwards to our idea of time (populations grow, so you take the number of souls that existed at the time of biggest population before the circular reset and distribute it throughout the rest of the cycle).

Hopefully that made sense and is nonpopular enough for you ^.^

Oooh, I'm sorry, your theory is one vote more popular than that one about snowflakes? and nosehairs? -wha? ...Yours is about chickens and recycling, I think

You don't win our unpopularity prize for today, but thanks for playing! And remember to come back and play tomorrow for a chance to win this nifty new Bowel Disrupter in nickel-plated finish! Thursday's prize is an Empathy Gun!!!

-giggle- Well then I shall retreat with the semi-dignity of being slightly popular, and see if I can do better next time

the matrix has us...


i came up with a similar idea well before the movies...
not the we are batteries for our machine masters part, but that this is some kind of virtual world, and we are all in our own interconnected little pods waiting to "wake up" when we reach a certain point

not saying a believe it myself, but it would explain some stuff...

then there is the paranoid part of my brain where this is some overly elaborate "Truman Show" and I'm Truman"

I have a theory that once the universe is mapped, it's going to resemble, in remarkable detail, a tree's root system and branches, or an animal's circulatory system. Hence, we are all cells in a living universe. :)

On this matter, make no mistake. I want you to go fuck yourself long and hard, as well as anyone who agrees with you. I got no use for you. --Auraptor

This vile and revolting malice - this is their true colors, always has been, you're just seeing it without the mask of justifications and excuses they hide it behind, is all. Make sure to remember it once they put the mask back on. --Fremdfirma

Hmmm... So humanity REALLY IS just a cancer on the ass end of a giant space monkey? It is all so clear now!

And, YES, it really did take me all week to come up with THAT!

We may very well be, Irie...

... or we could be the next step in the evolution of the universe.

Which scenario is scarier?
