When Jewish Kabbalists say that God 'Voided' His own Being to create the singularity, it doesn't mean that He took a Divine Dump :smile:  I rather like the concept of voiding or removing an Infinitesimal Point of His Superexistence, creating a 'portal' or singularity through which His Ideas could then expand, creating a dimension or universe 'outside' of His Divine Essence, yet allowing His Divine Nature (Immanence) to permeate the universe.

lol, Divine Dump was pretty funny.

Yeah, I guess the way you described it sounds better.

Also, Vedantists describe Atman (our souls) to be God Immanent, and somehow connected to Brahman (Who Im guessing is God Transcendent). What do you think?

Probably Ramana Maharishi has done the best job in the 20th century of explaining the interface between Atman, Jivatman (individual), Ahamkara (ego-sense), Manas (mind), and Prana (life-force). Atman is identical to Brahman, so it is difficult to ascribe immanent and transcendent respectively, but Atman is God associated with the embodied awareness of the human being while Brahman is Infinite, Eternal and not associated with form.

Mr.Mushrooms,
Quote:
It's against my religion to have any religion but on the weekends I like to cross dress and pretend I'm Adolf Hitler.


Normally I read your posts and generally concurr with your views or your pearls of wisdom.

But what the fuck were you thinking when you post such stupid shit as this Hitler bullshit?

It's not even funny as a joke.

It's fucking childish and idiotic to bring up such a piece of shit human being, in a joke even.
I am not calling you these things, I know you meant it in jest. I have relatives who died because of that man however. And some who made it by sheer chance it seems... I almost did not ever exist because of that meth head hypocritical bastard Hitler.

Bad kudos to you on this one my friend.

On a lighter note keep up the wit.

Let us hide all those hideous mistakes of nature such as Adolf Hitler! Maybe if we ignore people like that, they won't ever be born!  :shocked:

Personally, I thought it was one of Mr Mushroom's more humorous replies... in a dark and disturbing sort of way.

I knew someone would nitpick what I said and misinterpret it.

I was ambigious on this point, but I did NOT say in any way shape or form that it sould be hidden.

I am a bit drunk so I will come right out and say it fucking sickens me you come up with a defense for it.

I am just saying it is uncalled for to use it in a joke.

A serious conversation, sure, about evil twisted selfish minds who choose to take out their own misery and shortcomings on others.

Maybe if we joke around a bit more about people like Hitler and Jeffrey Dahmer, and Bin Laden, people will realize it's serious, don't you think?

Lets just make it one big joke, life death and everything, lets take not a damn thing seriously.

Maybe you would find it humorous to hear someone jokingly say they like to dress up as an evil bastard who is responsible for the deaths of many fellow intelligent humans, but I certainly don't.

I do not care to respond further at this time.

Have a nice day.

Yes, well it seems that for some drinking and posting do not mix.  Normally we have this problem on the weekends.

Thank you for your sincere reply though.  I am sorry that it offended you.  My point was and is that people accuse any Moderator action with the likes of the Gestapo.  We are called Nazis all the time.

With that said let me tell you a little about myself in the hopes that it will clarify any other words that flow from my keyboard.

I am not now, nor have I ever been, concerned with offending someone with my words.  As a wise man once said, "Offense is in the Eye of the Beholder."

I am terribly shocked and grieved to hear about your relatives. :frown:

Carry on.

I'm going to do my best here to hold onto the play nice rules.
But I can't let it slide.
Wyldlaser,
It's called humour bro.
Yea dude was evil, yea the shit he did was awful.
But check this out homeboy.
Let's pretend Mr. M was serious k?
He's all Hitler'd out, doing his little nazi dance, gettin on with it.
Got the picture in your head?
Good.
You see any dead Jews?
No?
You think it's because possibly (despite his obviously brilliant deception) Mr. Mushrooms is in fact not Adolf Hitler, and quite possibly not even a nazi?

If his joke was one glorifying the Nazi regime, I might agree.
If it was a joke about how Hitler's always been a personal idol of his, I could see getting offended.
But the fact is, that he meant no offense, no disrespect, and certainly did not intend to profane the memory of the poor souls who were victimised in that war.
Chill the fuck out kid.
Living your life with your panties up your crack is a good way to make too many enemies, and live a much unhappier life.

Quote:

That was the wisest thing you said in any of your posts. Too bad you can't see it.
I just hope one day maybe you can figure out the truths in that statement, and maybe see the things around you in a more open light.
(sorry if I sound condescending)

Peace, good will, and good luck bro.

I've decided that Matrixism ( http://www.geocities.com/matrixism2069 ) is the only religion for me.

It's not just because of their use of mushrooms or the causes that they support. I think that their religious laws have merit.
