This is a picture I made with the same concept as a picture I made for my brother a couple years ago on his computer.
I'm not sure if it's interesting to you, but it seemed as if my brother enjoyed a picture with similar characteristics.
Everything in this picture was cut/copied from my pictures from Costa Rica and my Scary Dairy trip.

Suicide
is a person smart or stupid for doing it?
Only a person with a full understanding of suicide should be able to do it.
Human nature is to live, love, die, whatever, and suicide is the opposite, it completely stops all of that human nature.
So, if one decides to commit suicide, one commits an act that is not of human nature. If one commits an act that is not of human nature, one is making an unhuman action.
Unhuman being not a human act, whether extraterrestrial, transcendental, etc.
That persons thought to commit suicide is unhuman, because their thoughts are to commit the unhuman act of ending one's life.
Suicide stops all human nature in that person, so is this person unhuman if they commit it.
This unhuman act is usually looked at as bad, but if it's unhuman and we know nothing about unhuman nature how can it be determined as bad?

History

If we think back in history, religion ran the state. The religious leader or the king would rule over the people making sure that if anyone would question god or question his power they would be jailed/beheaded.
If you look at our world as of now, it is almost a mirror image, it seems as if we always say, "Oh we learn history so we don't repeat the past"
If the leaders of now, learned about how the leaders of the past lead, what would keep them from ruling in the same way, with the same concepts.
As of now we are being told what they want us to hear=Bishops explaining to the people what god was saying.

Hallucinogenic drugs related to intelligence

A big part of our society is based around drugs. Through my perspective it appears as if people who do/have done hallucinogenic drugs are more intelligent than people who haven't. This may be related to my definition of intelligence but from what I've seen and the people I have interacted with who have done these drugs usually have a better understanding on many subjects. Its as if they allow us to see what's not there, causing us to furthermore question what could be there.

Trancending Humanity

This is an interesting game about transcendence, this company makes a lot of interesting/trippy games.

The thought of transcendence came up in ancient, medieval, and now modern times. What I wonder is if we will transcend like our ancestors did or are we done. I question the the thought of us transcending with many factors holding us back including ignorance, religious beliefs, fear, emotion. I believe if we were to transcend it would be beyond any we've ever seen before, the next movement for our species would be so magnanimous that we might not even act as we normally did with languages, courtship, loss of emotions such as fear. I believe if we did move beyond our current state we would have to leave human emotion behind as a whole, things such as fear prevent us from discovering, creating, QUESTIONING.
I don't think people understand where this society can go with the loss of emotion, the scientific advances. The loss of simple competition, when our society learns that competition is a primitive action we will experience great transcendence above our primitive past, this being only a step in a staircase. We need to understand that there are other ways to achieve the euphoria of winning against another, that we do not need simple things such as a baseball game or putting another person down for their flaws. Why not explain to that person what their flaws are using a psychoanalytic approach and explain why that flaw is present and how to fix it.

When I was about 5-8 years old I had nightmares of a man who would try to steal me from my dad at the grocery store, he would stare at me, across from the stacks of fruits raising his eyebrows and making strange gestures with his short mustache. My dad later showed me a book with a picture of my grandfather, I recently found this one on his computer. The man from my dreams was the man from this picture.

Word Up

Hello world, this is an example of how posts should be organized.

This post is ironic because there is no organization of how posts should be made.
Tag with whatever, use genres of what its about philosophy etc etc, try to keep the tags a little more organized. Sorry about the wall of text I'm just trying to fit all of my attempts at rules on one post.
