  1. I think there are a lot of quotes about Einstein going around that Einstein never said but people use to push their stupid ideology.

  2.  @maxonite  Fact ... until something comes along and shatters that paradigm. In science today's fact is tomorrow's old news. Happens all the time. Here's some context, I don't know if evolution is real or not because I haven't studied or researched it myself, but my comment was insinuating that man's high intelligence may have had other influences other than evolution

  3.  Steve Ostrowski  Stop acting like you cracked the mystery or something. You don't know what's going on.

  4.  boson96  if you dig around you can find evidence here and there. I'm not a 100% convinced either, but I never buy the status quo and take the history books with a grain of salt.

  7. I believe that everything sprang from nothing, in places where you agree that the rules are cancelled because you don't know what the hell else to do, otherwise known as black holes, and in singularities, which black holes have at their center, which is an admission of total intellectual defeat because how can there be more than one singularity, but that's what I believe in because it's science

  10. IMO that's great if someone out there is trying but what wealthy person would invest in the poor when there's no return? It goes aginst one of the fundamental principles of investing. So what's your take on the synopsis?

  12. All the ethics that you were taught are sociopathic manipulations, cons and control mechanisms to hide the violence of the psychopath from you. This is the media, this is religion, this is public school teachers, this is everyone in your social circle who continues to praise the state, despite the clear and obvious coercive nature of the state.

  16. Terence McKenna IMO offered the best advice if we ever want to get serious about understanding consciousness: "You see, culture is something that we wear like clothes. We are very much at ease by culture. Our mind is very much at ease by culture. And we gather the language of a given culture around us. Culture is the mind unperturbed. When a shaman goes into the wilderness, and through ordeal, or yogic practice, or breath control, or through the taking of a psychedelic substance perturbs the mind, then we see what the mind is like naked. Undressed by the clothing of language and convention. That's why there will never be a serious discussion of UFOs or consciousness itself until we leave the utterly culture-bound, provincial and hick-like attitude that science has hoisted on us about perturbing the mind. Without the use of psychedelic substances understanding the UFO dilemma is going to be as thankless a task as attempting to understand the nature of the universe without availing yourself with the use of a telescope. It is simply tying our hands behind our backs." ~Terence McKenna

  17.  @jeffforsythe9514  yeah, that’s it

  18.  @jeffforsythe9514  Don't get caught up with labels. I think about the view or theory that the self (or the mind) is all that can be known to exist. Consciousness is really just an awareness of now; what is clear, present and self-evident. So therefore, this frame of reference doesn't really require a label. The fact that it has been labeled is indicative of another illusionary device aimed at aligning the awareness of now to an inventory of fragmentation. Likely to instill and harbor mistrust in the evidence of what one knows to be for sure, in favor of faith or belief in some external factor that is in fact the source of reality. This is no different the belief of a God.

  22. Anyone who pays taxes is funding a war against humanity, ie the occupation of Iraq. What does that say about those who govern us? They take a 25% cut of your pay, and they spend your money killing innocent people. US government = EPIC FAIL

  34. What you consider thinking properly is not spontaneous creativity. The role of schooling in today's society is to compartmentalize students through standardized testing. From the moment you're indoctrinated into the system starting in grade one, you're placed on a "conveyor belt" to become at the other end a lawyer, a doctor, a manager, etc... There is no creativity there.

  35. It's a natural process, however, government schools grades 1 through 12 guarantee that any traces of creative thought are history by the time you graduate.

  45. The accronym o.c.e.a.n. does not stand for contrasting traits, the truth is that we all have those traits and we all exhibit those traits in one form or another. Some people just exhibit them more than others. Most people are somewhere in the middle.

  48. MonkeyKong Okay, I'm having a hard time grasping it, but I think I kinda get what you're saying. He wasn't joking when he said it's counter-intuitive XD

  49. MonkeyKong Okay, but just as a thought experiment, lets say gravity doesn't exist and we can fold the paper instantaneously, how can 50 folds make the paper tall enough to reach the sun when ten folds barely makes it an inch?

  50. For An Angel I still don't get how folding a paper 50 times makes the stack tall enough to reach the sun. I got a regular piece of paper and managed to fold it almost 10 times, I actually got 8 folds, and it was maybe half an inch. So 40 more folds and it reaches the sun? I don't get it.
