[Hammond] Wrong logic. It's like having a lo-pass filter over your entire sensory system.

[Hammond] WRONG. The first question in LIFE actually IS: Why am I such a loser.. and who are all those winners? And why do they all seem superior to me.. even though I know they're wrong and abusive? And the ANSWER to that is: You are not aware that you have a "growth deficit" and therefore you are NOT AWARE that those people AREN'T who you think they are.. and don't even look like you think they do... the problem is YOU CAN'T SEE REALITY! And THEN... is when you discover what 5-billion people are talking about when they say the word "GOD"!......... because THAT is what "God" is........ the explanation of why YOU can't see REALITY.... and WHY.... and what it really looks like.... AND WHO THE BAD GUYS REALLY ARE....... and why you can't SEE them for who they really are. And without knowing that....... YOU'RE DEAD MEAT, or just plain LUCKY! ==================================== SCIENTIFIC PROOF OF GOD WEBSITE http://geocities.com/scientific_proof_of_god mirror site: http://proof-of-god.freewebsitehosting.com ==================================== Join COSA church (Church of the Scientific Advent) Send a blank email to COSAchurch(a)hotmail.com and your email address will be added to the COSA discussion list (free, no obligation) ==================================== and please ask your news service to add: alt.sci.relativistic-proof-of-god.moderated =================================== > > Nonsense.

Is he the gunsmith? Boot hill? The small twitch? Point A is a story illustrating that long reaction time can be unhealthy. Point B is an alleged Proof of God. Is there any connection between point A and point B? |
