Ok, well, you don't HAVE to, but it's really intriguing. It's terribly long, and it will take you a while to get to the good part, but when you do...
Here it is:

I know. That's the downfall, and I'm not entirely through with it. It's more like a book, actually, and it gets interesting a few "pages" in.

It doesn't take too long to get interesting but it is a very long page.... I started last night and resumed again this morning and I'm only 1/2 way through but I recommend people give it a read.
If this were a novel I'd probably buy it

Yes! It has amazing twists and turns to it, don't you agree?

atleast give us a hint on what it may lead to. I want to know whether or not its worth reading, because while i would love to, thats some work.
how does the subject change, and what does it have to deal with. dont mean for you to spoil the movie, but...

Fiction, but very interesting to read.
Unfortunately, what I found somewhat annoying was the human emotions and rationalizations that Bob the "alien" had. It would, perhaps, be a much better story in brief, but I still found it rather interesting.
It's a compelling idea to think about alien lifeforms contacting us via the internet, but I really don't find the whole 'immortal being' idea to be very feasible. Perhaps I'd be more open-minded if I were to be able to talk to such a creature, heh.

I feel like the article itself is trying to do just what it talks about-- prepare me for undeniable alien contact. Wierd...I get a really creepy vibe reading this...it's almost TOO possible.

Exactly. That's what was the strange part of it.
For those who want to know the gist before reading it, a supposed "alien" contacts this guy through the internet to prepare him for a "doorway" opening into his world. The idea is that these people live forever, existing essentially as programs inside a large ship/ computer.

I finally got around to reading this in full. It has a nice overlay to the matrix trilogy. Anyone catch that? It has many over lays, to many to mention. I actually did a long reply to what i know about the earth being a game world in the physical with many virtual reality overlays built into it, I dunno, it may freak people out to much, so I scrapped it.
I respect the deniable contact and deniable memory trigger protocols. Best to keep it all in a sci-fi "imagination" context for the sake of peoples psyches.
If many undeniable truths related to a complete paradigm shift were dumped on all humans tomorrow, it would not be a pretty site. Peoples nervous systems at large can't handle such an infusion of light yet. Slow baby steps, mini readjustments and gentile care is the way out. There's no rush or hurry. We are eternal after all. That said, its a no wonder why we invented the game masters and the game worlds. What else does one do with an eternal conscious existence as creative intelligence in pure omniscient and omnipresent love and light force?

I had some of the same thoughts, Jiggy. The really odd thing about overlapping concepts with the Matrix is that this was originally posted in 1996! That was a long time ago for these concepts to be out there.

i think i am in a dream world. i have this memory of deciding to get on a spaceship, and walking down this street with crazy fractals. i think the aliens enlightened me or gave me LSD. just like in that alien contact article!!
so i have a question are you all just in my imagination????
i kinda want this game world to be over, if that's what it is. but i dont know the rules.
