What is the light in our existence

    What is this, the light that gives us the ability to see, smell, touch and hear our existence? What created it? Is this light turned off theoretically speaking when we die? The world before us in all its supposed normality, the reality we define as real and yet science tells us today that it is not real. The light which also allows us to perceive our reality through our conscious awareness, also deceives us into accepting that we are a part of an elaborate reality, with laws constraining us within this reality..... chains, the very emblems of materialism which bind us to our imprisoned state of been, at least so our ego believes.

    What is the light of existence and of reality, what is the light that allows us to view our world, and how do we understand a world without this light?

    Many want to ban me. I do not understand, why so angry? Are questions not allowed to be asked, I presumed after hours was an abstract outlet for questioning, not defined like in specific forums.

    You were told something by the mods a number of times.
    There are rules to the forum. Clearly you don't give a rats-arse to those rules or adjudications by those applying them.

    Considering your name is based on a philosopher and you're asking phiolosophical questions I think your topics are more suitable to the philosophy forum....and at least people only want you banned, they could want you to drink hemlock.

    Are questions not allowed to be asked, are questions allowed to be answered?

    Are answers allowed to be questioned, is that the question to be answered?

    Question?

    The migrating swallow sees things on the Internet that are not as they seem. The wise swallow knows to look beneath the surface, and find the truth of a forum's existence. The even wiser squirrel knows to read the forum charter. Have patience and be open to the energies of the universe, my child, and the energies of the internet will flow in you like the blood pumping through your veins

    Know too that this is only a mere thread of the spectral plane of existence in light which will be revealed to you as your spirit grows and soars


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    Jesus, why is everyone so bloody hostile to the OP?

    Fair enough, this isn't 'typically' afterhours bt who cares, AH is a mixed bag and he isn't insulting anyone

    It's a good question OP. The light comes from Gods fridge, he left the door open many moons ago and so we have life


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    There is a light that never goes out


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,751 ✭✭✭Saila


    You need to get laid buddy.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,327 ✭✭✭AhSureTisGrand


    For some reason I doubt this would go down very well in the philosophy forum


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,614 ✭✭✭ArtSmart

    other than that it's usually drugs. or chocolate.

    A wise man once told me:

    haven't a clue what the ould header was on about:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,816 ✭✭✭Calibos


    People are calling for a bannin' because the OP keeps getting overcome by the exuberance of his own verbosity and posts thread after thread of pretentious meaningless drivel prose. This type likes to think they are showing how intellectual they are when in fact they are merely showing how pathetic they are because a true intellectual would post in the correct forum and in concise easily understandable fcuking English. :rolleyes:

    :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,265 ✭✭✭SugarHigh


    Why does this guy bother people so much? Are they just insecure about their own intelligence?

    It seems you are describing what I and others would consider to be the soul, In this world seemingly our souls are mixed and passed onto our children, but with regards to being deceived into accepting reality, Well clearly I dont have a clue but its highly suspicious to me, There must be some purpose to it all.

    Not a patch on this thread. Take some mushrooms and come back
