it will come as no news
that the media and lawyers
serving the industrial complex ...
have created much fear simply to sell us product...

....extract from gone_west

describes this hell

For some time we walked along the bank
of a broad and filthy stream which ran into the great river.

EDITED
we reached a huge city. It was a most dismal place —great chimney-stacks everywhere, and factories and warehouses on every side, and
between them ran squalid, dirty streets.

Filth and grime were everywhere. In and out of the factories moved streams of workmen, and I stopped to inquire what they were doing.

“One replied‘Working; what do you suppose?’

“‘But what do you do with the goods?’
“‘Sell them, of course;
but the funny thing is that as soon as they are sold
they return to the factory from which they came.

That’s why it is all the factories have so many huge
warehouses. We are constantly building new ones to hold the goods.

The whole place seems choked with them
can’t get clear of the damned things.

EDITED

no matter how we try to get rid of them,they always come back.’

“The Officer.‘Why don’t you burn them?’
“The Stranger. ‘Burn them?
Why, we’ve burnt a dozen great warehouses at a time,
but there they are again.

Simply can’t get rid of the beastly rubbish.’

“The Officer. ‘Why do you go on making the goods then?’
“The Stranger. ‘We can’t help it.
We seem driven ...by some strange force.

Compelled/to work and work without ceasing.

There’s no rest.

how about the act of dying?

“I BECAME unconscious and after a time recovered,or so it seemed. Indeed,my mind suddenly became clear,but I began to feel a heavy weight.

Gradually I realized,this weight was slipping away from me,
or rather,I was sliding out from it,as if someone
were drawing his hand out from a wet glove.

Then I began to feel free.at one end,
so to speak,and then I began to see again.

“I saw once more the room and the people in it.
Then I was free! free!

I saw myself,lying stretched out on the bed,
and from my mouth came,as it were,a cord of light.

It vibrated for a moment,then snapped,
and from my mouth came away.

At that moment someone said,‘I think he has gone’
Or if they did not say it,they thought it.

I exhibited all the signs of suffering intense cold.
I shivered and moaned,“Cold, cold,”Piercing feeling of cold.

I was a naked soul,no body,nothing to give me warmth.
I shuddered and shivered like this for many a seeming age.

“Suddenly it seemed to grow a little less.
I was aware of a presence.

our world impinges on yours.
I hate similes,but it is as if we were thrown on to your stage,
our scenery —and our characters
walking about you,but unseen by you.

Just as a real man on such a stage,would hot see the phantoms which
surrounded him,but the audience sees both him and them.

“We are in the same world as you,but not subject to the same laws.
For example,..time and space don’t exist.

This sounds trite,and so it is,
for the truth usually is trite,
because it’s true, ..and therefore always has existed.”

J.W.“But you are here now.How,then, can there be no space? “

H.J.L.“Compare us to a thought.
We are more than a thought,..for we continue to think;

but compare us to a thought;
you may then get some idea of what I mean.

..but your finer senses are controlled ..by your body
and you are unaware of ...

Mr Moderator, please do something about antiseptic's behaviour. You've intervened in OUG's posts because they are too long, because antiseptic complained to you about what he described here as OUG's "gibberish". Antiseptic's posts have been personal attack after personal attack etc etc. Mr Moderator, please do something about antiseptic's behaviour.

Below you'll find antiseptic's contribution to this topic.

"Now if only we could only manage do something with that enormous chip on your shoulder"

"All that petulance"

"I am a part of the vast worldwide conspiracy against you"

"you do that dear, I haven't had an online stalker for days"

"I'm sure you did dear and you're just as silly to do so"

"Feel free to post gibberish of your own"

Antiseptic is trying to "bait" people and "get" at them. Mr Moderator, please do something about it.

In the interests of disclosure I should say that I have complained privately to the moderator about antiseptic's behaviour on this topic. I was told the posts I was complaining about were not "recently" written, and that he would do nothing about them.

So I am left no recourse other than to publicly advocate that the cane be applied to antiseptic.

I suspect this will annoy the moderator, and he'll delete this post and my other post above. And leave all antiseptic's posts untouched and leave antiseptic unwarned.

After my posts are deleted I request that if anyone here agrees with what I've written please carry on the discussion about this and about how one member, antiseptic, gets away so easily with personally baiting other members. I suspect the moderator will just now ban me. Bye bye free speech.

LOL! Good on you samsung! :) I don't think the moderator can ban you for freedom of speech. We can all see want AS as he really is. Do not let his irritating self bother you as he has proven himself time and time again, what a waste of time he is. I can't believe I wasted my time on him.

AS is a good example, of the things we can't change.. the stubbornness and ignorance of adults. Just ignore negative statements, and take in the positive ones. We can learn from both. Because we can tell right from wrong. He has taught us a valuable lesson. That we should not judge others in a negative manner. Every reaction there are lessons. Thus we learn and grow.

UOG: You still haven't answered my personal questions. I can't understand how you can spend so much time debating your theories. As long as you believe it, they(your beliefs) are right. You don't need others telling you that your beliefs are the right ones. What matters is what you belief, as a being.
