free will does exist, it was a movie about a whale, wasnt it?

Personally I feel I am servant to those who are asleep. My entire reason for taking part in discussions is to try and help uncover the truth for people and give them understanding. Am I going to beat myself up because they don't wake up? No.

If it's right or wrong is simply a single question - if you were asleep would you want people to try and wake you up? The answer is yes. So how can you look at others and not do so? I can't.

If you are having a hard time waking people up, then perhaps it has something to do with your approach.

If you expect someone to change their mind in the middle of a debate, your expectations are too high. And if you are expecting the person to believe everything you do, then you are still sleeping.

And overall, even if you were right the entire strategy is just keeping the status quo.

Pindar:

"What we are and what we are not?
Man is a dream of a shadow."

So, wake up! Move on! There is a lot more out there than just being a sleeping beauty

This thread is nothing but a pathetic ego infused atempt to justify selfishness. The OP is probably feeling dead inside, having lost the true meaning of his humanity.

People, that are people, owe it to each other to help the community. People, that are parasites (and here we have most of the supposedly 'higher educated') just leech off the system.

Here's the shocker, if your philosophy wins your world will die too. Because parasites can't survive without the host they invariably kill. If the NWO order scenario wins it won't last 1000 years, the tyranny will be so great it will collapse under it's own evil in just a few short generations. You cannot build a civilization on selfishness, it's a negative energy, it consumes. Just looking around with open eyes shows this. That the OP can't see it makes me think he's not as awake as he thinks he is, just leaning towards the dark side because it makes him feel better than everyone else, which is one of the root psychological problems of the current social meltdown.

If the NWO wins then we're back to rubbing sticks together.

Sorry for the harsh words, but you're grasping at straws here.

I dont care what anyone says here, YOU are DEAD ON. This guy talks about how making the right investments and being fine with watching your neighbors burn while you enjoy the luxuries everyone else doesn't even have the time or resources to consider makes me think you and your little friends here are too self centered to see how greedy a mind set that is. There are PLENTY of families that simply cannot invest, no money to do so, and plenty of people who cannot go to YALE or even a community college because they have to work two jobs just to pay rent to stay from living on the streets! ugh, you need a reality check!

If you are truly enjoying your enlightenment and awareness, with no concern for humanity living by the billions under a steep sentence of poverty, infanticide, exploitation and slavery by the cartel, then you cannot say you are truly awake. We aren't being called to wake up for ourselves. Those who can see are on active duty!

I also love a nice piece of Chateaubriand steak and wearing leather. Well, I like it best when the girl is wearing leather, but I'm generally pro-leather.

Compared to those of us who are Awake, those who are asleep feel and experience as little as a cow. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but that's how it is.

Some are born for a life as labourers or as fodder. Some are born to be sacrificed. Cows are born to become delicious steaks and shiny boots. This is how things are, and the sooner those with eyes to see can accept this the easier it will be for everybody.

When its all over, that mentality had better be as simple to remove as a renegade microchip, because truly this nightmare on earth is ending and the renegades will be dealt with, and we, the people will evolve into the cosmos!
This is a promise.
