airtwardo 7 #58 November 7, 2003 QuoteAre you speaking in Spiritual or Temporal terms? Cuz they mean different things at different times. *** ...and yet you are always the same thing. TB99- Kind of a bitch when you start to question the hype and look for the lowest denominator isn't it. What am I? I'm a narcissistic realist. A bug on a rock that's spinning through vast expances of nothingness, that through a freak chance of chaotic evoloution...became 'self aware'. A tiny piece of an ever growing population, that unlike all other species currently inhabiting the planet...can generally, consciously effect the comfort, quality and length of my stay here. Through the process of natural selection, I've been ingrained with the reflex to eat, fuck and look around. Everything else is an advertisement. Personal choice on my part, not fear of punishment has turned me toward trying to make this rock a 'better place' for those of my species I come in contact with. If they feel the need to believe that there is more for them beyond this short meaningless existence, I encourage then to do so. I play the game with a 'Stepford Wives' grin because it allows free use of the field, but unlike many...I've seen the play book and know the rules are rigged, the score has already been determined. When the clock runs out...and life as we know it no longer exists here, another game will begin just like it has billions of times over trillions of 'years'. The introspective self assessment in regard to the lowest common denominator for a narcissistic realist is that in the end we live our lives within ourselves. You may fill your life with love, hate, or complacent indifference...in the end it is of truly little matter. We all are born, live, and die the same...ALONE!

Actually, this is one of the questions for which Socrates was put to death. Good ole Socrates loved to ask this question. It turns out that nobody can answer it. Why? Because we are what people say we are. What is your name? How do you know that? Because somebody told you that is your name. Are you American? How can you verify that? By using someone else's rules. If you use your own rules and definitions different from others, you cannot be understood. Therefore, you only fit into the modicum. This is simply a question that society cannot answer. Read Plato's Republic or the Trial and Death of Socrates. Fantastic stuff. My wife is hotter than your wife.
