If you X 'it' does 'it' then become 'It' and is the world suddenly a much darker, solipsistic place?

REVELATION! Because I believe in womanhood, motherhood, and sisterhood..I can always be an XX-disciple (and it's easier for me to spell, too!) :mrgreen:

Bravo to the Bison! Wisdom is displayed, for even roads less traveled can come to crossroads, which are often "X"s.

X is the great negation, the end, the close, the "no more" of existence

That could depend upon how well you could stand Meg, I guess. The world could seem a more exotic place. Got to watch those false prophetesses!

Y-naught is the Y-coordinate that is usually found on the X-axis, showing it's enlightened state of being. Y-naught knows you shouldn't stray from the trajectory of X, because it knows "why not"! Just wanted to send that glowing ray of illumination to this dark corner of the internet.

I find your assumption disturbing and lacking proper consideration. It is an established fact that belief is congruent with lifeforms possessed of the five established multi-capable intellects. There is no distinction between life-drama and the elevated state of light-living so long as one is at peace with humankind's place in our three-dimensional world-gap. The clearly, obvious layers through which believers ascend through the spiritual cloud mass of reality is apparent to anyone that bother's to pay attention to the under-field of perception.

These are readily apparent truths not idle speculations and I'll thank you to be more open minded and accepting of spectral cascade divisions.
