Either it exists or it doesn't. If it exists it can be measured. If it doesn't exist, it can't be measured. Therefore, metaphysics is a pile of doo doo. Simple as that. If I said that George Washington was sitting next to me while I write this, would you believe me. Well, I suppose that you could, but if you did, you would be goofy.

well, the term used in theosophy is "levity", the polar opposite of gravity.
theosophy has ventured into gravitational field theory?

Blueblades, just like you I have no idea as to what I am talking about, but I am going to talk any way. Well, as time goes on, as we know it will, more knowledge is accumulated at an exponential rate, in other words, real fast. Now, where does that leave us? I have no clue, but I will continue anyway. Since no one can know everything, I guess we have to settle for learning the stuff that most interests us, and/or stuff that gets us a better job.

Indians are the nicest people...
by DanTheMan ini recently was pulled from my regular job in customer service to help work on our company's "global transformation project" which involves getting all of our company's disparate software systems onto one system.. most of the programmers that i am working with now are from india.
i tell ya, they are the friendliest, most polite people i've ever come across, they are such a pleasure to work with.
i wonder if it's hinduism, or their culture, or maybe i'm just meeting the "cream" of a nation with something like a billion people, but i think the western world could learn a lot from these humble folks.

I think a Cleveland Indian lesbian, playing first base would be really something.

Dan, I especially like the Cleveland Indians. Sorry for the bad joke. I just couldn't help myself. I do not know enough India Indians to make a serious comment.

I want to ask her out...
by DanTheMan inthere's a girl in my math class at community college who...omg she is such a hottie.
a babe-alicious babe.. i am very inexperienced in these matters, i guess you could say i'm relationship challenged.. how do i approach her?
she seems to struggle a bit with the material we're covering in class, and it comes pretty easy to me.

hey Dan, I guess your term is over, and I don't know if you will see her again, but if you do, tell her this: I do understand that you have a boy friend, but if the two of you break up, please give me a call. Always leave the door open. You never know what will happen. In the mean time, use your door-to-door Watchtower and Awake sales skills to find other women. "Many are called, but few are choosen." (From some place in the Bible.)

Who Is Responible??
by Satanus inthis is a bit of meandering about my life.
in my life, i have undone most of the wt memes, i have worked on overcoming the negatives resulting from the abuses of my parents.
the emotional emptiness resulting (i think) from my mother's aloofness, noncomunication, nonsupport can't be deprogrammed.

I had a similiar experience. Two brothers came to my door about two years ago. I was nice to them and gave them a contibution for the magazines. They came back again in a month. Well, this went on for awhile, One time I was busy, and didn't have time to talk. The last time I saw them, I invited them into my house, beause it was cold out side. They did not come in and indicated that they were pressed for time. At any rate, I have not seen them since, and I am not sure why.
