So coincidental that when viewed by nearby intelligent life forms it appears as a modest representation of themselves — a great calling card saying “Hey You. Yes you down there. You are not alone”. I pity those creatures, but I pity that planet’s lonely sceptic more because in the vastness of this universe such a coincidence could occur. <BR/><BR/>As we look into the source code and tags of the universe, a programer is not eluded or reveling itself, a universe is reveling itself as we see it. We are the brains in the indifferent vat.<BR/><BR/>Waking up to the indifferent vat can be equated to taking the red pill of The Matrix. <BR/>Neo’s brutal awakened world was like a scorpion kick to the head. No wonder critical thinking is on the decline. <BR/><BR/>There seems to be a rising tide of nonsense (Intelligent Design, The Bible Code, Deepak Chopra, James Van Praagh, etc. etc.) and a declining interest in pure science in America.<BR/>The word “science” is developing a negative connotation. It donates a cold world of white coats, detached technology and big business. Science is merely critical thinking. It is “Faith”, a sheer willfulness to believe in what we wish to be true, that should be the word in disfavour. <BR/><BR/>It may be a pie in the sky hope, but I wish critical thinking was taught of our schools.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22705470.post-1142814679156696802006-03-19T19:31:00.000-05:002006-03-19T19:31:00.000-05:00Hello, I am an entity that does not exist.In a ser...Hello, I am an entity that does not exist.<BR/><BR/>In a series of not so incredible flukes, nothing happened to create sentient beings.<BR/> <BR/>In my universe, the laws of physics did not come together “just right” to produce physicists to explain why my universe is so incompatible for life to exist.<BR/><BR/>..and then nothing happened to create a media to exploit a public’s hunger for meaning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22705470.post-1142803028646927772006-03-19T16:17:00.000-05:002006-03-19T16:17:00.000-05:00Hello, I am a entity that does not exist.In a seri...Hello, I am a entity that does not exist.<BR/><BR/>In a series of incredible flukes, nothing happened.<BR/> <BR/>In my universe, the laws of physics did not come together “just right” to produce physicists to explain why my universe is so incompatible for consciousness and nothing happened to create a media to exploit a public’s hunger for meaning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
