I love humor, just not infantile penis humor, or repetitive memes.

What kind of berry is always sad?
The blueberry.

So unfunny, it's funny. No real need for jokes, you guys are always funny.

I've highlighted the suppositions in purple so that they stand out. I've also changed the categories a bit. There's now "Ideology", "Entities", "Reality", "Forces", "Practical Techniques", and "Topics for Further Development". The core of t...

You need a message then, not a force. If you could create something like a Bible, that was actually useful on a practical level, that'd do it. People already ship Bibles all over the place. It takes evangelism to beat evangelism. You can't expect your "good" virus to beat their "bad&q...

But theory isn't the same as fiction. There is a line in the sand between theoretically and hypothetically. We can imagine the world hypothetically being made of cheese. But that is just science fiction, because it makes no goddamn sense. The world isn't made out of cheese, but in 5 billion years, ...

Welcome aboard! [yay]

Your original post failed to resonate with my sense of humor. I found it a bit childish, but your effort is noted. Regardless of rules, it really didn't fit with the theme of the site. I go to this site for learning about the occult, and I go to other sites for humor. It's best to keep things on top...

You might say that you for, it would be unethical to not do random stuff just to gain new information. It would be unintelligent not to. I see that as different from ethics. Also, the fact that you bend your will to the surrounding standard of right and wrong for your own survival means that you ar...

I never lost you I spoke to you moments after I forgot you But it took me a millennia To make my way back. You gave me a letter To find you But there was no address And you were dead too early. Little did I know A thousand years later To my own experience It was me who handed myself that letter. Whi...

I see where you and I think differently I'm not sure what you mean by this. Electricity was not science fiction in the 1200, we just didn't have the technology to harness it, but we were aware of it, and some attempts had been made. Probably, but I didn't actually make any effort to do research. Th...

Deductive Scanning If you just raise your area's MP by a lot, I think it's useless to try to do magick after that kind of scorched earth banishing. You're making it extremely hard to modify, in general, by raising the MP, so any sort of magickal effect you want to create will have to be a lot stron...

Desecrated, But that's just science fiction. Then we might as well just build The Matrix. I fail to see how that's a valid argument. Back in the 1200s, electricity would have been science fiction. Given modern developments in neuroscience, I find it quite reasonable to assume that we might be able ...

It's not so much about length, as it is about quality. Most lengthy articles tend to have a lot of filler, and very little actual information. I tend to avoid videos, because there's a lot of click bait out there, and because people talk really slow. For example, if you post a "Ten Ways Your Li...

My unmderstanding of what makes a self righteous pereson is not that they intend a good outcome, but that they think they are better than someone else for believing that they do so.

I agree.

You have an interesting perspective on life

Really? How so? I doubt it's that atypical at all.

Shinichi, The appropriate contemporary term for "industrial magick" is "advertising." You might be right. That's a very interesting line of thought. Desecrated, If I knew what human consciousness was, I wouldn't be here, I would be at the Nobel gala receiving my prize for solvin...

In your karma system you say that you are rewarded for helping people. I am not rewarded by other people for helping them. I reward myself through helping them. The difference is that I am not following a standard of ethics, but am simply choosing my tools. There's no authority. That would indicate...

Ethics is all about what is fair and just, and cruelty by definition denotes an act that is unfair. I literally don't understand the concept of ethics then. I'm not sure how I would define "fair and just". Is that like, some person's arbitrary decision? Maybe I'm out of the loop on these ...

Anything is possible with the right procedure, and the right amount of force. Space generally isn't an issue.
That being said, it takes A LOT of force to do some things (as in, you might be dead before you get enough training to walk on water.)

Sentience / External Entities Agreed. Mega Events Now, if I were working towards a desired outcome, generically a Minor Event, and it coincided/aligned with a Major Event, rather than absorption and nullification I would think it would be more like complimentary absorption, where it accelerates the...

Well then, by your definition, you might as well be cruel to everyone, because it will always give you good karma to spend. Not necessarily. It's just a weighting of resources. Helping myself instead of others is always cruel to others, and nice to me (unless someone else benefits by accident.) Hel...

That doesn't really make sense. I'm not choosing to be nice over being mean. Being cruel to one person is a way of helping another person. It's impossible to be kind to one person without being neglectful towards another. Even something like making a friend could be seen as cruel to other people, be...

Human consciousness is vastly more complex than a rock or camera. What is it then? Human consciousness might be more complex than a rock. But who's to say a rock isn't conscious? Is it because it can't express its consciousness? In that case, is a completely paralyzed person with no ability to expr...

First, you say you have no ethics, but then you say when you believe in karma, and that when you hurt another persons feelings you need to make up for it by helping someone else feel better. This would imply that you actually have a moral point of view and believe in an ethic, because the ethic tha...

I've been thinking about the prospect of industrializing magick. Look at another field of study: movement. First humans walked, then we had the wheel, then we had boats, then engines, then planes, and now we're going to space ships. It seems to me that magick is still at the walking level. We know t...

In a world of billions of people, with even more billions of small things occurring every minute, and every second, one would wonder what separates them from another? From an overview, we would all appear the same. Every action- no matter how large or small to us, would seem to be just another mund...

Shawn Blackwolf, And I am purposefully answering your post , not Blindwake's *because* I am one who despises arguing , and he has made it clear he loves it... Thus I refuse interaction with him , due to that... I am here to share , not argue , discuss , or converse... It would seem that you're done...
