But then that also creates a problem since all religions aim at the same thing but they cannot accept each other and that once again just points out the nature of man. So we found a loop hole within the whole religious tebacle. Ppl believes in this stuff so blindly that they come to believe that they are the only ones that are right and anyone that does not believe in what they do or take their saviour as their own is an antichrist or something something (not that I am not aiming at christianity here I am speeking in general) has no right to live. This ticks me off seriously. They believe in the same things but they condemn each other for believing in what they feel is right. So you see the true nature within us cannot be rooted out. It is there wether you like it or not. It is part of you no matter what you do. We are all a sacriledge to ourselves.
my thoughts exactly.

i think religions is to keep all the wars and deaths from happening at once, it kinda slows the process of elimination down :twisted:

but seriously, anarchy would be so much simpler.

well let's look at it this way.....

1. A Vampire is immortal thus he is death
2. A Vampire is already dead thus he is death
3. A Vampire takes the lives of those that live thus he is death
4. A Vampire can give life to those who are dead thus he is death

there's only one flaw in your explanation, vampires can be touched, death is ethereal. :P :twisted:

Have you ever seen one? According to the "legends" vampires are physical beings with extraordanary powers. Have you ever seen any people with such characteristics? Vampires are only made up stories from who knows when and you claim that they are real.

In stories maybe! If a vampire is immortal, shouldn't it be eternal life instead of death? If it's dead, how can it be death itself? If a vampire is death by taking lives, what are killers, murderers, etc? How can something that is dead, give life? Dude, your logic doesn't make sence!

What do you believe will happen to you when you die? (Definately not turn into a vampire! :lol: )

no man this is a ploy.

oh and by the way a vampir has the choice wether to turn someone or to just leave them dead and in that sence they do give life but a distorted one. And yeah I see a vampire in every human being on the face of this planet. Being dead you are consumed by death thus becoming part thereof. Killers, murdrers, exactly my point man everyone has a vampire in them.

A person, such as an extortionist, who preys upon others

point proven right there. You see everyone preys upon someone else like a leach. Draining that person dry from life.

Oh and all legends are based on fact not fiction.

everyone and everything as a matter of fact. And yes that includes me.

Go talk to Jung and you will find out how important relationships are to our survival. People use each other cuz they would go mad, insane and generally just depro without contact from other things. Imagine if you sit in the same room day in and day out without anything to do but stare at a perfectly dull and blank wall. You would go insane after a while. Also there is the issue of energy transitions. Energy does not just stay on one spot it moves around and through everything. So say you sit next to someone you might indeed pick up some of the energy radiating from that person. So in fact you are "stealing" their energy thus sucking them dry. Although everything in nature tends to keep a balance so you would take up some and that person would in return get some from something or someone else to equeal out the equation again.

what is the relationship between technology and religion?

today i'm a curious_squid, (can i be a pubic knight :roll: ) and i'm wondering what your opinions are.

personally i feel that i'm losing touch with myself. i've compared two people against each other, the one is an engineer and the other is an artist, the first difference i notice is in the lifestyle and they way they react to certain things in life. while the artist shows great insight into life and self awareness, the engineer has a greater understanding of technical details. both of these types have shortcomings. i haven't met anyone yet with both these qualities, both artistic and shoes great insight into technical data.

sorry if this doesn't make sense, i'm dumb when it comes to putting these things into words :)
