I like that kind of logic Avatar.
And yet, in this case, I'm sure that you are the one that was made for my reality. So I guess that you exist, it's just that you exist for the benefit of my reality. That might mean that you exist only to reply to me in this forum and that everything else you do is simply to take up resources as a number in the population of the planet, which is to say that you are free to respond or not and that is the only direct interaction that you have with the "Neo" of this reality, me, and the rest of your existence is just as any other, free of outside interference and continuous until this universe is completed.
Even if it isn't true, I'm still responsible solely for my own life. Nothing that anyone ever does or any drug ever does to me can free me from being responsible for my actions, my words, even my thoughts. What I live for & how I live that life is only my doing. So whether it is my responsibility or not, every time I do something wrong or something right it is because I've made a choice, even when I do not choose I still have.
Fun circles to contemplate.
Well then, take this!!!!

I agree completely. If only more people realised the extent to which they chose the "reality" that they have to live through. Everything is perspective and choice.ZefaLefeLaH wrote:Even if it isn't true, I'm still responsible solely for my own life.

Zeph, Your last post on the 16th, a long one, was very interesting to me, as was the others. I can't say that I agree with the whole thing, but that doesn't matter. What I do agree with is the fact that you are a "free-thinker" and a "seeker". I like that, and I encourage it. Your attitude and your words do not offend me or upset me, because I sense you are someone who would embrace an actual TRUTH when he sees or hears it.
Zeph, I HEAR you, or at least I think I do. I have always said, myself, Question everything. Listen. Watch. Observe.
I myself want the TRUTH period. I am not content to settle for what we've been taught for millenia, what mama said, what the preacher said, or what was forced upon me or even suggest to be best.
I simply would like the TRUTH, and if I can acquire an portion of it in my journey through time on this planet, I won't have been here for nothing.
Thanks Zeph for going out on a limb here.
I hope it didn't ruin your rep as a....a.....a....
whatever it is you wanted to be perceived as.
