Skald - I hope she isn't going to or hasn't done so - she seemed almost despondant.
Wombat - I am really concerned. I just hope she is okay.
AGAIN, ABI - IF YOU ARE OUT THERE JUST POST SOMETHING - WE ARE ALL CONCERNED ABOUT YOU!
Mamie - while I hate to think that too, unfortunately the web is filled with individuals like that. (And, I know personally since I was taken advantage emotionally by someone else many years ago who created a persona and who didn't really exist - very very long story but maybe I will go into it in another post)
Quiet One, Sunshine Mariah, MeMi, Zayda - and the others whom I have already acknowledged (and anyone who comes to this post with concern) - Thank you - I am so happy to know that there are such wonderful people on this site. I knew from other comments on other posts that people here were nice - but this just solidifies my opinion.
No - ET, and Sunshine - I understand. If she is a fraud, then I feel very sorry for whoever is behind those posts. That too is a sincere cry for help (or attention). It would be terrible because there are people here who really need the support.
Sigh - it would be very sad either way....
Pickersplock - Yeah, I shouldn't be surprised if it is - I hate being cynical, but I guess it is what it is....
sucks that people feel the need to jerk others around - emotionally, financially, physically. I really want to think that the world is a good place - no, not Pollyanna-esque - I am too smart for that... just hopeful.
now we clearly see who have been rapacious wolves disguised beneath the skin of sheep.
see? the truth reveals itself!
just because abi stopped responding, you guys are now suddenly accusing her for a fraud!
i can't think of any word but hypocrites.
the only thing you care is your satisfaction and your feeling of relief, not her life.
i'm guilty of that too. what we all wanted it the proof that
our advices are so good that it saves a person from a suicide. wasn't it?
i repent. how dare i demand her, a person in bottomless agony, for a response so that
i could stop that tiny discomfort of concern and uncertainty?
yep, i admit. i was wrong to demand her of anything. that was selfish of me.
i repent of being short-sighted and narrow-minded.
HEY ABI !!!
I knew you're alive. you say you don't care about money, work, or boys?
Wow... admirable.
see? it is always those moral individuals who often feel trapped in this world,
because this world if far from being moral. a suicidal thought is the evidence
of a live conscience.
now. what would god want a moral human being thrown to this evil world to do?
suicide? then why would god created that person in the first place?
first thing first. why the hell did god created this world?
my dear friend abi, i have a conjecture about this question.
i'm not saying it is the answer, but it's a thought.
abi, have you seen a movie "Saw?" if you haven't, i highly recommend it.
in there, a man plays a "game" with people he abducted.
the abductees are trapped in a dark, dingy room full of filth and stench.
the man talks to the abductees thru a monitor or a tape recorder.
he tells abductees the rules of the game.
if abductees follow the rule, they can win the game and walk out of the room,
live and free.
if they fail to solve the puzzles of the game or if they violate the rule, they die.
you may think i'm crazy if i make this anology:
god is that guy behind the monitor, the abductees are people in this world,
and that dark dingy room is the world.
yes. god is playing a game with us. all of us.
now let me tell you what i think the rules are:
1. seek pleasure, then you die.
2. seek justice, then you live.
heaven? hell? in my opinion, the existence of heaven and hell are provably unprovable.
now that you know of math, let me present you a semi-formal proof of this argument:
argument: the existence of afterlife is not provable.
proof)
Assume afterlife exists. Then a person X must die in order to observe it.
Assume X dies and observe an afterlife.
Since X is dead, X cannot convey that knowledge to the people who are alive.
Hence, the existence of afterlife cannot be proven to live people even if it exists.
Assume afterlife does not exist. Assume X dies.
Since afterlife does not exist, X does not exist after death.
Hence X cannot convey the knowledge of afterlife's nonexistence to the live people.
Hence, the nonexistence of afterlife cannot be proven to live people even if it
does not exist.
Q.E.D.
have you heard of Kurt Goedel? it is no shame if you haven't cuz you're not in college yet.
Goedel is the guy who proved that phenomenal and historic "Incompleteness Theorem."
the theorem basically says that:
"there exist a true mathematical statement that cannot be proven mathematically."
curious? google up! i'm sure you're smart enough to read-and-understand.
see? it's fun stuffs. there are lots of fun stuffs in college, especially for intelligent
people like you.
anyhow. back to that god-abductor analogy.
let us assume that, in this world, bad people get punished and good people get rewarded, always.
Then, who would be bad and who would not be good? right?
every single human being will seek to be good and avoid being bad!
THAT IS NOT THE CASE AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY EVIL THRIVES IN THIS WORLD!
sorry to capitalize-yell but i just had to-- i got carried away ;>
now. let us assume that god is smart enough to hide the truth, which is:
1. a person who lived a righteous life in this world go to heaven
2. a person who lived an evil life in this world go to hell
in the movie "Saw," there are many traps. a door that seemingly lead to an exit actually
leads to death. a door seemingly leads to an enormous pain actually leads to the key to the exit.
got it?
ps: hottips4u, thanks for the compliment if it were. mamie, shut up.
