cheetos anyone?
I dont know about the glue thing but pot makes ya paranoid and give ya the uncontrollable urge to eat a bag of cheetos. The point you make about telling the 6 year old "goddunit" is a good one. So many people I know tell me that I should not bother with all the inquiry about the nature of reality and the search for a reason de entre'
I am met with people quoting Deuteronomy The secret things are mine says God. But the very next line is: Except those things which I reveal to you, which shall be yours and your childrens. That sounds to me like God wanting human kind to search and desire to know how conciousness came from matter, how the universe operates and how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. Happy New year Lam.
