You have to ask yourself, who is more evil: a) A man that kills a bunch of people because he enjoys killing, but in the end it turns out that those people were infected and would annihilate the entire Earth. b) A man that learns of a group of infected people that would make human race extinct unless they are killed. So he kills them. Later, however, it is discovered that they only showed the symptoms but were, infact, not infected.
If Knighty doesn't fix this website soon I'm going to stop procrastinating and go back to actually writing my stories. In fact, I'm gonna do that right now!
Words in a story are like a weight of a plane. The most advanced planes do tend to be heavy, but adding weight to your model plane to make it better, is just silly.
Throwing your weapon at the enemy is like hoofing a stallion and forgetting your horseshoe inside. You might have to go through shit if you want to get it back.
Life is unfair. People are unfair. Justice will never be fully served. Deal with it now, or be forever miserable when you find yourself surrounded by shit.
Examine the crap around you. Taste it. Inhale it. Understand it completely. It is then that you will gain the power to predict shit even before the sphincter opens. It is then that you will see ways to channel the shit in such a way that you won't get crapped upon.
Does throwing stones at an approaching black hole make your resistance objectively meaningful or do your futile struggles only distract you from seeing the inevitable?
Humans. Fairly well educated primates, considering that their their learning capabilities are well below what they could be. Prone to incorporating views of the society they grow up in, while at the same time thinking they decided to hold those views on their own. Oblivious to long term damage of devolution processes, prompted by lack of selection. Thinking they are at the top while ignoring that the genes allow for much further development. Capable of immense perception distortion that allows them to view a misfortune of one as a tragedy while dismissing the deaths of millions.
If I succumb to temptations, I will fade away. All I am would be dissolved, without even leaving a foot hoof print in the universe. Like a puff of smoke that becomes one with the nothingness around it. What I write is what I am. Without that, I'd only be a heap of flash, merged with a couch. Writing may not mean much in the global scale (nothing does), but at least it feels like a confirmation of my existence. I must write!
When God last judged us, He found only one family on the whole planet worthy of salvation. The rest were doomed. With that in mind, we can postulate on His criteria for letting people into Heaven. None of the people you know is likely to meet the requirements. So, when your loved one dies, it's quite safe to assume he/she is going to burn in Hell for all eternity.
Not all is as grim as it sounds, though. When someone close to you dies, you can imagine them screaming in agony at that very moment. Their torture will never stop. That is a sad part, yes, but at the same time, there is a sense of joy. You know that you, yourself, are not yet burning alive. You still have many years before you, too, are plunged in the lake of fire. It's good to be alive.
I think we can all agree that history is set in stone. It is unchangeable. But don't you think that our future is someone's past? If that is so, then our future is unchangeable, also. It just seems fluid because we don't know it yet, but that is only an illusion caused by our ignorance.
Time is like taking a ride in the elevator. You see the floor numbers increase: ...3, 4, 5, 6... and you think that the floors are building themselves as you pass them. You think that the color of the next floor could be anything, but you are wrong. The color of the next floor is already set. The skyscraper does not building itself as you traverse it; it was already built from the bottom to the very top before you even entered it.
I'm thankful that we exist. This Universe should be void of life, statistically speaking. Sure, there are many conditions for life, but for life to actually make a jump-start—that's almost impossible.
I imagine there are billions of Universes with good conditions for life, yet void of it. Life is the most important thing that this Universe has to show for itself.
Do you know that feel when someone thinks highly of you, but you know that that person is overestimating you? Every sweet comment about you, every nice gesture toward you. It's all lies, made by delusions in that person's head. Worthless. All of it.
The hate, however. You can know it's real. People don't love to hate. They only hate when they mean it. It's true and honest. When someone hates you, you know that you've really touched that person. You connected.
I have it better than 80% of the people on Earth (most of us here probably do). If I wanted to end my life for objective reasons, I would first have to conclude that the lives of 6 billion of less fortunate people are unacceptable. The sheer amount of logistics involved in killing off the majority of the planet's population would be too daunting for me, so I don't even venture to that venue.
Life is like an interference in the void. A local maximum on a global minimum. A spark of light, without anyone there to witness it. A well-crafted instrument playing in a vacuum.
It's like walking the stairs of World Trade Center from the bottom to the very top on 9/11. Be proud of your achievement, for it is glorious. Just... don't look outside.
We really should hurry up and finalize fusion reactor technology that would allow us to live in any place in space without being dependent on the Sun which just radiates energy into nothingness. Every second so much energy gets wasted that Billions of people could survive their whole lifetimes on it. It's equivalent to billion people dying every second. And that's just around our solar system. There are about 100 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 more stars out there that need to be shut down as soon as possible. So much energy is going to waste and nopony is doing anything about it. I'm thinking black holes. We need to throw everything into black holes for the good of everyone!
