<p>I’m suddenly inspired to write a parody of that Joan Osborne song…</p>
<p>
Aside from the meaning of religion? Well:</p>
<p>If we are “real”, then there are any manner of things that can kill us.</p>
<p>If we are “simulated”, then there are any manner of things that can kill us, PLUS the danger of being “turned off”.</p>
<p>Oh my god, so, I was watching the History Channel last night…and wow, that ***** is crazy!!! It was on a theory that aliens created humans as a slave race…but, wow, the evidence was practically mind-boggling. They were talking about how there were landing zones for ships (well…they also stated that the Nazca lines worked as a sort of air strip…), specifically how certain mountains were kind of flattened down in order to work as a landing zone…but how did cavemen have the technology to do something like that? Futhermore, there was also evidence recorded by Egyptians (I believe?) about people coming from space…and then there was this other program on cow mutilations (here’s an article on it: <a href=“http://www.alien*************/animal-mutilations/%5B/url%5D”>http://www.alien*************/animal-mutilations/</a>). They also mentioned an article on a guy who was flying his plane and was never seen again and blahh…I don’t know if I’d say I believe god was an alien, but after I saw the history channel last night I’m starting to believe that extraterrestrials actually do believe (I’d always believed that aliens did exist, but just not the way most people view them - more like random bacteria growing on mars…).</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>^A thirteen character swearword?</p>
<p>
Must be more than one. Makes the link unusable, and I find that hilarious.</p>
<p>Then the Bible would make a whole lot more sense.</p>
<p>^^ Weird…it blocked out alienc r o s s i n g . c o m/animal-mutilations/</p>
<p>May God lives on Kolob like the Mormons claim…</p>
<p>maybe we’re the equivalent of bacteria on a petri dish</p>
<p>^Earth is a giant petri dish fo sho.</p>
<p>Yea, think about this makes everything seem so weird. If we find out that there is no creator of us, or something watching over us. What would be the point of living when we have no reason. Who knows we may be like mice in a science experiment.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>A specific form of intercourse which gives humans pleasure. </p>
<p>On a more serious note, Perhaps we would be able to gain more power over, well, everything, if we knew how to work our environment. Our spacial environment, mind you.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>lol it’s nice to know the technical term for the situation I was always convinced of when I was, like, ten. Except it was, well, not really by aliens, but some other superior humans. Reading too much fantasy. ;)</p>
<p>There was also this period when I was always suspicious about other people because I suspected them of being actors paid to keep me in a study-able condition of mind LOL.</p>
<p>I was a weird kid.</p>
<p>
When I was younger (around that age), I thought it was possible that other people could read my mind. When strangers would pass me, I would think simple phrases over and over again, so that was all that they could read.</p>
<p>My little kid logic was this: If someone isn’t reading my mind, then no one will know to think I’m crazy. If someone is reading my mind, then they’ll get freaked out that I’ll know. The same with thinking people were spying on rooms I was alone in, and verbalizing my suspicion. Haha, just recently, I saw an xkcd comic with the same logic.</p>
<p>Actually that’s pretty common ^</p>
<p>Sometimes I thought that it was possible everyone else was just an alien when I wasn’t looking.</p>
<p>^^ and ^^^. I did both of those haha. In addition to thinking the same thoughts over and over again to freak the person that was “reading my mind” out, I would also think an extremely odd thought as well, so as to freak them out. I always expected said person to immediately stop talking to me and walk off because they were so freaked out, but it never worked, of course.</p>
<p>I was a lame kid. i thought i’d get superpowers or get a letter from hogwarts or something.</p>
<p>Yea I thought the same thing also. That people can read my mind, so I managed when out in a crowded place to not have thoughts and be silent in my mind. Very, very hard to do.</p>
