If you see the paradox then you see my point, or lack of one depending upon your point of view.
Please bear in mind that this is a dual purpose forum. Philosophy is argument and Spirituality is simply shared.

Yes, your post was a paradox.
Bully for you.
Why chime in if you are going to talk in a circle?
All hippies can talk in deep circles... and many other hippies will respod to such posts with an odd reverance... 'cause they too believe that we are all one... and bla bla bla...
How does this further this conversation?
You used an applause line in the middle of a thread, but it had nothing to do with anything.
I guess some people DO miss the forest for the trees.

There you go again, re-defining words...
Check my posts on the meaning of the words Spirituality and Philosophy. Sounds like you might need a review.

for the first time, maybe ever, we've been close to a miraculous breakthrough in something. Technology is absurd. The next big step HAS to be close.

are you tired of waiting for yourself to step up. whether or not we get to witness a mass ascension does not mean that each one of us cannot succeed, Will i ever reach the totality of myself? even now i witness the beauty of me and my perceptions of this world. Will i become aware of the other worlds that are present in this moment here for me to learn and eventually create other means to learn and advance.
for you see, liquid eternity pulses through my veins. all my wishes will come true.

See that's what I'm talking about, posts like this ^^^ are awesome, a little pointless prose should be welcomed in a 'Spirituality' forum.
Spirituality is the essence of paradox, it cannot be objectively defined, and it can only be apprehended by the irrational mind.
But that's just the most fitting description in my current world view, others may disagree and that's ok.

Fair enough.
The internet and 9/11 seemed impossible to me a long time ago, they weren't miraculous enough for you?
What if aliens landed tomorrow but didn't know anything about God or the origin of DNA?
Nothing 'paranormal' here folks? Just another humanoid? Still no such thing as 'Spirit'?
And what if they caught Bigfoot? "Just another earth creature? No big deal?
What if a suitcase nuke went off in a US major city, marshal law was declared and the internet shut down?
Just World War 3 right? Or 'nothing but' a rogue comet or 'merely' an active galactic nuclei. No 'prophecies' being literally fulfilled.
The miraculous isn't something that's seen, but how one sees...

Unfortunately, the only ones to appreciate it will be the skeptics. The believers never wake up even when hit in the back of the head with a brick.

The other day I was talking to a young girl of 25 who was telling me what and important time this was in history. Now when I look at history 25 years ago it was considered a very important time then too. If this young woman was born today I'll bet my bank account that in twenty five years she would point out what a very important time in history that was.
Why?
Because it's her now and we all (almost) think the Universe revolves around our personal experience. You can extrapolate this to the original post and have your answer IMO.

Whatever... Breathe in love and breathe out forgiveness. I like that... see that is why come on these boards... but I don't see anyone trying to make a point on anything here... only countering someone elses. Like as if anyone were to post a new topic, one would have to scan it to spot any inconsistencies and warn the topic starter and others that said thread is not agreeable only disagreeable. Maybe I little bit of an overstatement but still, I literally see every idea, I like anyway, shot down. Because people are so opinionated here... cause of this knowledge and shit...
