Right on!


You get it. Never mind the noise. I just finished building a beach for my pond and a trench to feed it from a spring. Watching my daughter playing in the sand....priceless

we are part of the universe. We have been here as long as it has. Every fiber in your body is the universe.

2012 came and went and nothing happened. There always have to be some die-hard Millerites after the Great Dissapointment. Someone with so much invested in doomsday, that after the big nothing, they go, "see, see, something happened".

I just wanted to say that these are good practices regardless of what is happening. Experiencing true silence is extremely awakening.

That is true. I don't recall saying we aren't (However, I will contest that human experience has been here since the beginning. We are merely a blip in that timeline). But you said somehow that is our"soul".




The soul is connected to the universe and defines what you feel or don't feel. The soul is our connection to the universe and allows us to communicate to the higher powers if tuned well enough.


So is our "soul" made up of the universe? If so, what are those ingredients?

I am saying the "soul" is nothing more than your imagination. See, we can prove our bodies consist of the same things we find in the universe, but you can't prove your soul is because it doesn't exist. And since it doesn't exist, how can it be connected to the universe? And you claim our imaginary soul allows us to speak with imaginary higher powers. I am simply saying that is nothing more than you trying to make yourself feel more important than you really are. The universe doesn't care about you no matter how much you try to make yourself feel like it does, it doesn't. It was here long before you and will be here long after you. I know it's hard to fathom that one day you will cease to exist, but that doesn't mean it isn't true.

Man not this again.
Always someone yelling the end is near.
The world has always been screwed up.
It will remain screwed up.
This world isn't perfect.
It never will be.

We have been trained to value property over lives, order over freedom and to hate more than we love.

It is disheartening to see that the one's who have a soul are considered to be weak.

He has no point.
It's simply nonsense.
Nonsense about becoming soulless.
Same nonsense in different form.

I think you are wrong Roman. All the emotions, empathy, altruism
that are part of the experience of being human. All those feelings
of love, hate, sorrow, sympathy, charity and joy that have no texture.
Anyone who's ever felt them has done so with their soul. Your soul
is like an invisible avenue to all these invisible places. Just like the streets
you can drive on take you to physical places. If we lacked a soul we wouldn't
even be alive. Did I say I think you're wrong? I damn well do and you shouldn't
shrug it off because it might burden you.

Just because you do not understand the point does not mean that there is no point to get. You don't get it...yet you felt a need to respond. That is the noise he is talking about. Get it now?!

Who is he to define noise?
He is a mortal being.
What does he know of perfection?
Why does the flawed preach to the flawed?
Noise can be beautiful.
Silence can cause insanity.

So can noise. Boom trucks drive me insane. A stupidly heavy bass is not a beautiful noise.

You had no idea what he was speaking of, yet you felt obliged to respond negatively. that kind of noise benefits no one but the one who cannot stand himself in silence.

I don't see how the people inside don't get headaches. I get them just hearing that stupid boom thump booooom. They must not care about their hearing.

Not as much as they care about attracting attention.

Hey...the "law of attraction". So it's on topic. Sort of. I guess.

a reply to: randyvs

I can appreciate your approach randyvs, and I can see this going into some philosophical discussion. However, I am responding to the topic of the thread that is basically saying the end is near because people are becoming soulless. I am saying that people have always been soulless yet here you and I are having a discussion.




All those feelings
of love, hate, sorrow, sympathy, charity and joy that have no texture.
Anyone who's ever felt them has done so with their soul.


Anyone can say it's because of anything. Like I can say the same thing ... All those feelings of love, hate, sorrow, sympathy, charity and joy that have no texture. Anyone who's ever felt them has done so with their "luos". What is a Luos? I don't know know but it's true because I felt it. Now does my statement have as much merit as yours? I can just use the same explanation as you though. Your luos is like an invisible avenue to all these invisible places. Just like the streets you can drive on take you to physical places. If we lacked a luos we wouldn't even be alive.




If we lacked a soul we wouldn't even be alive.


Prove it. Has anyone ever had a death prognosis of "bad soul"? Soul failure? Cancer of the soul?

Come on randyvs, you're being childish here. Your response is literally, "You got to use your imagination." Who else do we use those words with? Children randyvs, children.




you shouldn't shrug it off because it might burden you.


Yeah well, okay, but I doubt it. I appreciate your concern, but don't condemn those of us who can separate reality from fantasy. If a doctor ever told you someone you cared for passed due to complications of the soul, you'd be all over that doctor for being a quack. Fantasy is great, until it gets to crunch time. Then it's time to get serious. And serious has nothing to do with imaginary things.

Start a cult.
Follow his teachings.
Just don't drink the strange tasting kool-aid.

Sometimes they attract the wrong attention. Then it's the end of the world, for them at least. Hey, still on topic.

Hearing your baby speak for the first time is beautiful.
One bad noise doesn't have to cancel out all other noises.
