[MEGA] God v.2

very cool piece.. Max, you got me hooked on Alan Watts there, I've known of him but never really sat down to listen to him, some very fun lectures of his on youtube
 
Alan Watts was definitely a man who 'got it'. A common question asked at medical school interviews is 'If you could have dinner and conversation with any person living or dead, who would it be?'. Alan Watts was my prepared answer for this one, which I was not asked, sadly.

He sees both the big and little pictures, something key to anyone who "gets it"
 
Wow... just wow. Im convinced, i dont know what it is but something about that convo.. feels wierd. It all makes sense.
 
He then stole every account the writer owned, knowing his secret password.

EDIT: A nice article to think about, I don't want to sound ungrateful, I just found the secret password part a little.. weird.. who thinks about their secret answer or password like that?

I've started as well, passed it on to a number of friends and posted it on facebook, a small step to get young minds working.

Don't think you quite read that bit right. He said he knew his passswords and that no-one on the planet knows that

I do like the play on the authors name though "Harry Stottle"... get it?
 
I'd meant to read this whole thing. Definitely glad I did. All I can say about it is hey, you never know. Even if this is a complete work of fiction, it's pretty philosophically interesting.
 
Why do so may bluelighters love god?

I understand that many people on here have had or still do have serious drug addiction problems. I don't mean to be anti-god, anti-religion but I'm pretty tired of seeing so many posts about god and religion.

I hate it when people say that they were saved by god, and god helped them get through their tough times. That isn't really true. YOU got yourself through the tough times. That was all you. There is no big guy up in the sky helping you become sober and safe. Everything happened because of people. Drastic, important changes occurred because of everyday people, because of ourselves. You may believe that god saved you, but he didn't. You saved yourself, YOU, the most important person in your life, YOU.

People need to understand that the way religion is practiced worldwide os detrimental to the advancement of humanity. I don't think religion is entirely pointless, don't put that in your head. Religion has a lot of important values to take and learn from. A couple weeks ago I was watching a pretty long and in depth program about Buddhism. I thought it was funny at times, because the stories were so fantastic and unrealistic, then it hit me. While some people actually believe the stories as fact, I saw them as tools to learn from. The teachings have higher motives, they may not be completely true at all, but you can learn a lot of good values from them.

I know my words will fall to deaf ears, but I just want to urge you all, don't put faith in god, put faith in yourself. In me, in your brothers and sisters, our mothers and fathers, in YOURSELF. Stop blaming god for bad things and praising him for good things. In the end, it's just us humans surviving through US. If god is so amazing to "his children" where has he been? If everyone would put more faith in humanity, maybe less would suffer because of conflicting religious views? Just some food for thought, I appreciate hearing your responses.
