He is coming to NYC in October and he is going to speak for 8 hours but in order to hear him you'lll have to pay $60 or $70. Would you pay it? There must be enough who would say yes as I don't think he is going to speak to an empty house.
But how weird does one have to get to be like him?
Would those on the Moon allow me to post this?

Well, if our body/mind is being manipulated, why aren't I being affected? Philisophicaly speaking you would not know you wear being manipulated because it has been that way your whole life.

You are not being manipulated, your perception of reality is being manipulated.
I.E. If you think you are in control it is merely the illusion granted to you by the "matrix". You can't prove it wrong without going to the moon and drilling a hole from one side to the other. Cultish, most religions employ similar logic in their beliefs.
Bingo. and one can only act, react, interact to the information they can receive. Wonder how all of us would behave if they powered it down and we could receive the raw data as it really is not how they want us to see it
No Bingo here! I manipulate my reality. I am aware of almost all possibilities and I choose. My world is my own creation. I don't have choices, I make]/u] my choices.
Believing you're free, and being free. What's the difference? I'll happily accept 80 years of thinking I'm free.
Where do you get that a free person is a slave? A slave to what, to who? You obviously are not free for if you were you could never make the statement you did.
That has to be the silliest comment I've ever read. I consider myself 100% free. I'm reacting to my own stimulus, not to any outside force.
