Cause if you don't the time and space continuum will implode, causing a hole to be torn in the fabric of life itself, and all things in the universe will cease to exist.

What colour is your blood, man? Is it the red blood of our Free American Men, Women and Children? Or is it the dark red blood of Communism?

My blood is blue

How about eliminating authority itself, so as to alleviate the need for the questioning of it.

Because why die living a lie, and getting f**ed in the Ass every day of your meaningless life, why not search for freedom and the meaning of freadom itself, i dont need to question authority anymore, because my questions have been answered, now i question reality......................... (please try to forget anything i just said or your head will explode tonight at midnight...................)

How will you ever get anywhere in life if all you do is question everything?

Who said that, in order to question everything, you can't do anything else?  :wink:

I do happen to question everything. In fact I can't help it, it must just be my nature to do so. I question everything that anyone tells me, everything I read, and every peice of sensory input my noodle recieves. Yet I still find time to hold up a full-time job and a fairly intensive partying down schedule  :smirk:

One thing I have NEVER really "understood" is how anyone can possibly not question something. If someone tells you something, do you really just take it as true without question? How could you do that? I guess you would have to trust the person in the first place...but everyone makes mistakes and what if this so trustworthy person has just made a mistake? Now you will go around thinking, and then believing in something that was never true to begin with. In my life, I find even the possibility of this to be unnacceptable. Thus, I must question everything.

Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free.
But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

I am the same way, my friend.  I was just playing devil's advocate.  I recall hearing arguments similar to what I said, as to why some people have to think about stuff and question things.  They have the effect of extreme frustration when you aren't in a position to have a chance of winning the argument :blush:

I havent seen the video, but I have the mp3 of it. I honestly never knew there was a video, but the music alone is enough to do some damage. I wish I had some acid now,  because I think if anyone  can do it, leary has proven it with this audio clip. Now for the lights :smile:
