Perhaps its a small accomplishment that you need. Fuck, everyone needs those lil landmarks in what they do (the absence of clear ones has created a generation of clueless wastelanders.)

So maybe alter your focus not on just miraculously GETTING IT ! :D
But accepting that you have to just "get" a small thing, that will build into better understanding.

yeh little goals are a good plan to have.. SMART goals haha. :rolleyes:

i agree about the swimming and running being very freeing activities. ball sports are usually more fun for me though. well, swimming is comparable. running is kind of like torture... but its also amazing for that fact and after you finish it, it feels incredible

My example.

Is there an easy 2 or 3 chord song that you know inside out from listening ?

Let your fingers rest on the memorization of those chords until you phase your SELF out and just let the fingers walk.

You say that you do this from time to time. Fuck, maybe making chord/guitar music isnt for you. Is that ok ? What drives you to wanting to play music so much ? I mean...maybe making music in this fashion just isnt the medium you need.

Exactly! You are given a choice of god or science, but why can't they both be intigrated.

Dead-Air and Adam, those are the reasons I have sex with boys.

I'd let a dude fuck me in the ass and cum on my face. I don't think I'm attracted enough to guys to want to fuck them back though.

Interesting. You're a peculiar man, Mr. Cooley. That is why you're one of my favorite people ever.

"I'm just honest." I don't care who knows it or what people think; I'm sure 90% of people have similiarly "bizarre" feelings, they just don't make 'em public. Who gives a fuck.

But thanks, Hayden. I love you too.

Yeah, if I could I would. I'd make a great fag. My many queer friends would be very pleased. It's just not in me though.

be careful with that.. it has only worked out so-so for me..

you don't turn on your computer by force of prayer, do you?

(well, some old machines probably run on that, but that's besides the point i'm trying to make)

how does that example invalidate her point exactly? There is no reason to be needlessly antagonistic when someone is attempting to build a bridge rather than slam shut a door :(

there is nothing that makes bridges intrinsically better than doors. i know "building bridges" sounds more hippy dippy, but each has its proper function, and doors for what they do.

science and religion might meet in philosophy or cosmology, but not invading each other's provinces. that's how you end up with bad science and crazier-than-usual religion.

i like a good door. it keeps things separated like they sometimes should. for example, in a house: the kitchen and the crapper-- definitely a door. you don't want a bridge from the turdpot to the frying pan. or the inside and outside of a fridge--- you don't want to cool the whole state of california. etc.

doors are good for you!

there's also drawbridges-- those are cool too.

doors are not good for anyone. communication is a must.. doors are how shit like this gets started






human beings, when in ignorance and lack of communication, tend to do the worst things to each other..

without boundaries, you wouldn't be alive. peel off your skin if you don't believe me. or have your cell membranes melt. or say 'hey, there's no need for my brain to be confined" and crack your skull open.

you're overgeneralizing metaphors in a hippy dippy way. yes, yes, we need greater communication among humans, yes we are all brothers and sisters, etc, yes, that's nice, "building bridges" is a nice humanitarian metaphor, but if you apply this notion to everything and anything without distinction you cease to make sense.

anyway, i have to close the door on this conversation as it's taking up too much of my time to make a simple point and i have other things to do today.

man i was a fucking wreck the other day.

Let's hang out.

You are Scientifically overgenereralizing things the same way he is hippy dippy.

Dippy.

im not overgeneralizing anything, i'm simply against taking seriously a mishmash of religion and science-- that's what redneck schoolboards do and i'm not for it.
