note: i have no idea which forum i should post this in. i figured i'd post this in the religion forum since religion puts alot of value on our existance in this world. if you can think of a better forum to move this to please do.

whether you realise it or not your a prisoner. what are you a prisoner to? your own existance in the physical realm. why would i say such a thing? well lets consider the facts. we all go day by day living out our lives in society. first and foremost we are driven by our "need" to survive. in order to survive we must participate in society through work which leads to money which can be used to buy food and shelter. and if we dont choose to participate in society, we wither away and die. but is there realy any need for survival in the first place? there is plenty of evidence out there that supports the idea that there is another world beyond this one that we enter upon death. also in this side we can be free from our slavish existance here. but on the other side there are also alot of forces that want us to keep reincarnating into this world but for what reason? some say we are here to obtain enlightenment. but why can't we just obtain enlightenment on the other side. some say that we are here to become stronger, but why can't we become stronger on the other side? some say we are here to obtain physical desires, but who's to say there aren't other realms out there where we can obtain physical desires? when you get down to it, life is a pointless concept that is designed to keep us in slavery. so how do we free ourselves from our existence. reject everything you have ever been taught about life, religion and spirituality, don't listen to what these so called spiritual guides on the other side tell you, and make up your own damn minds about what you want to do with your eternal existance.

now dont get me wrong, while society is a load of bs, there are still alot of good things out there that keep me from ultimately killing myself as a means to escape this prison. also some of you may also be happy living out your life in bondage. i'm not one to say what you should and shouldn't do. if your happy with your life, then go live out your life. but if your one of those who aren't, it dosn't have to be this way.
