You know...for the life of me I can't remember. I saw a Japanese film...can't remember the title. Maybe it was "The Mummy Returns". I don't go to the theater very often. It has been a few months. No no no I just saw the premier of "Crushed"! One of my co-workers is a film-maker. His latest work was premiered at the Vancouver Underground Film Festival. Some of us went down to check it out and show our support. That was only a week or two ago. I'm losing it!

So your only complaint was the legnth? You are such an idiot! If a movie is good it can be four hours long (see uncut version of The Godfather), and be perfect. But an awful movie that's only 10 minutes long, is ten minutes TOO long. You come off like those movie critics that seems to sift through a movie, picking it apart piece by piece, DESPERATE to find something bad to say about it. Like that yutz from GMA.

I wouldn't have been so severe with lilmisfirecrakr myself, but I agree with you. It is rather annoying when people with short attention spans moan about good films that happen to be over two hours long.

Did you really love Final Fantasy? I went to see it because I'm a big fan of animation and the games themselves, but I wasn't expecting much in terms of plot. The ending ("we saved the world by using the one weapon they had no defence against... love") was a bit silly. I didn't know whether to laugh or stick my fingers down my throat. Still, compared to Save the Last Dance it was a masterpiece.

On a slightly related topic. For someone that I thought was quite a film fan, I'm surprised you've only seen 4 films at the cinema this year. Or are you a "wait till it comes out on video" type of guy?

My problem with Harry Potter wasn't the length, per se, but the pacing. It dragged. One of my all time favorite films was Gandhi, which was about a half hour longer than HP, but had substantially more substance. HP was basically entertaining, I basically enjoyed it, but it really could have benefitted from a a little editing.

I have more problems with someone bringing a light-stick to a movie theater to entertain themselves-- that sounds distracting to other patrons.

No, my only complaint about Harry Potter was not just the length. I also didn't like it because it was dull, juvenile, and had mildly satanic elements.

Never say Jay & Silent Bob, FF, or Evolution. Liked Ghostbusters.

So there, I'm not just being unfairly critical.

Brian, Brian, Brian. Don't you see? There's absolutely no point in defending what is clearly a book and film inspired by Satan himself. Witches, wizards, magic and incantations are against God's word and it can only harm a fragile child's mind to subject him or her to this evil passing itself off as good, clean, family entertainment.

Far better to let children read a book which features turning water into wine, raising the dead and walking on water (not to mention murder, rape, torture, incest, famine, disease, genocide, enforced slavery, war and political corruption).
lilmisfirecrakr
(reply to icurok) posted 8-Dec-2001 8:51pm  
What on earth...? Are you trying to say that subjecting a child to the Bible is something that could harm him? Man, I am truly and genuinely sorry(and i am not being a wiseass)if that's what you really believe because you apparently have no understanding whatsoever of any part of the book.

I never said children shouldn't see the movie. I said it had satanic elements, which is not deniable.
I don't believe that it "corrupts" children, what I do believe is that there are so many far better, higher quality classic children's stories that actually have morales and values in them and were not produced merely to entertain.
All this "subjecting children to evil works" was something you made up and I don't know what to say in reply because it was never an issue to me.


And another thing: I am so tired of this bashing I receive on SC because of my Christian beliefs. Most of you are self-stated liberals
but in truth, I have not yet seen the tolerant sides of
any of you! I am a Christian. Get over it! I am not afraid to tell anyone that I believe in Jesus Christ, and I will defend my faith until the day that I die. You can knock me down, slander my name, ridicule and criticize me, but I will not be discouraged and my faith will never, EVER be shaken.

Satan is the fallen angel from the Judeo-Christian belief system. To be Satanic or to believe in Satan, one must first believe in a Judeo-Christian God, and then want to reject Him in order to believe in the opposite of said God. Since there is no mention of God in the fictional (I repeat fictional) world of Harry Potter, I find it difficult to see how it can be Satanic. Don't confuse Paganism or the occult with Satanism. Magic (insofar as our desire to affect our surroundings with incantations and prayer) has existed for a lot longer than the concept of Satan. Labelling something as Satanic is an easy way to demonise anything which is non-Christian when it is merely an alternative (but no less valid) belief system.

Satan is supposed to be evil. Satan is supposed to be corrupting. I'm not having a go at you, I just find it confusing when you say that something has Satanic elements, but is neither corrupting nor evil.

To say that Harry Potter has an absence of morals or values is also something I find strange. The whole point of the ending (that love is stronger than any magic) doesn't strike me as being either amoral or immoral.

And for the record, I'm not saying that reading the Bible can harm a child. I was being sarcastic. What I am saying though, is that the Bible contains all of the things I mentioned (some of which are not treated as if they are bad things), so to criticise another book for containing magic using characters is a bit rich.

One thing you'll notice here at SC is that it is a community. We share ideas and we're not shy about voicing our criticisms about something somebody has said. Sometimes you need a thick skin. There happen to be a few Christians here at SC, and I personally don't have a problem with that. I'm not trying to knock your faith. I couldn't stop you being a Christian anymore than you could turn me into one. But don't equate something with Satan just because it's not in the Bible.

The three headed hound, Fluffy, was Cerberus, a creature that guarded the entrance to Hades, but then Hades wasn't Hell either. It was more like limbo, or a collective sub-conscious of independent ghosts, serving as a reminder (being an 'under'world) that there are striations of reality. I instantly dismissed Anton La Vey's books (Satanic Bible & Verses) as teen because they didn't stand on their own. They were merely a rebellion against catholicism.
I dug those Potter door locks, and am thinking to make candles that suspend from microfilaments through the wicks.

Of course Cerberus made a brief appearance in Dante's Inferno as the guardian of Circle III (the gluttonous). I always thought it was interesting that Dante borrowed so much from Greek (polytheistic) mythology in order to describe Christian (monotheistic) Hell. But then again, a three headed beast acting as the guardian to the third circle of Hell. It's just another mockery of the Holy Trinity, like walking under ladders.

Hinduism was full of things like siva-trimurti at the time too. (Jemmy got a postcard from Sri-Zona). Perhaps it was their reference to former civilizations. The top of the tree-of-life is the trinity too. Positive and negative creation. Even the primordial crawfish trident by virtue of binary decision branches creates trinity.

Actually the Hindu trinity makes more sense to me than the Christian trinity. Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver and Siva the Destroyer. Birth, Life and Death. But the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit? I've haven't met a Christian yet that has been able to explain to me what the Holy Spirit actually is.

On a related note, where does the biblical preoccupation with sevens come from?

Father = creator = formative = sattvic guna = Brahma = Keter (godhead) (~ ra & isis?)::
Son = stable = tomassic guna = Vishnu = Chochma (positive cosmic vision) (~ osiris & horus?)::
Holy Ghost = dissolution = rajassic guna = Siva (not the anihilation of kali-ma) = Binah (receptive understanding) ~ (anubis & horus?)::
The holy ghost is akin to shekenah (hebrew spelling?) godliness/holiness/wisdom (much like Gevurah consciousness) which can dispell material concern. The exit-bound presence. You can (or at least i can) see it in some people like an actual candle walking ghost that solemnly preceeds a person.
It's all pretty much the same thing, even if you draw it as the Ur hippo/crocodile. Or we could assign it to angels like Metatron & Gabriel.
7 can only be equally dissected by methods of iterative approximation (unless you build an 8 dimensional compass). It's far short of the Sri-Lantra which requires infinitely recursive co-dependant simulataneities to draw/solve accurately (in other words, only god could know how to draw one correctly). Days of creation, angels, planes, planets, centers, wisdoms, beryllium, hundreds of other spiritual associations, not just in christianity but others too. But still don't know for certain. I could contemplate it with more sacred geometry, or ask for a meditation from the akashic records on it, i suppose.

It took me nearly three years to work up to god taking over my public because I was afraid of what the people they once were would think. I kept up my connection in the privacy of my home through tv and radio's, and (still) in public, talk to people person to person while all the other voices become my connection to the almighty. and honestly, finding that it was all god only increased my relative shame in public for some time. I was afraid to shop for groceries. (That I had the misconception that I should fast from material pleasures didn't help either.) My first turn around was finding it was all god, the second was accepting the person I am. All I suggest to you is look around. You once suggested I strain for connections, when i do so, it is a bit contorted. What really works best is simply relaxing then noticing out of the corner of your eye what your thoughts look and sound like. Some people need to meditate to stop all their churning gears from obstructing that awareness. My awareness dwindles when I'm out of my own element/center, ie visiting mom's. Spiritual people are often loners.
I'm tempted to see 'Apes' just to see why everyone thought it sucked. Everything makes 'some' sort of sense to me.

Maybe you can explain how the ending of 'Apes' is possible. I don't see God in all people. That 'Anthro-pantheist' type belief doesn't gel with me since I see so many walking arseholes and can't believe any of them have God inside there somewhere. I know I don't. My sense of empathy is dwindling for those who I see get what's coming to them. I feel for animals and people who are innocent, but I believe less and less in an interventionist God and I can say I don't believe God is in all living things. Animals and humans are programmed for certain behaviours. Endocrinic chemicals do the rest. I feel a certain way because of the different chemicals flowing through my veins. Perhaps I don't feel or act like the majority, but there are always extremes on a normal distribution curve. I don't think I'm way out on the edges. I can take drugs that will stimulate production of reward hormones to make me act in a different way, but why should I. Maybe people who talk to everyone about everything and are never alone need some behaviour modification. I really don't want to change. If I did, I would.

I will keep up with the dialogue, however.

Look at the movies. We might gawk "oh my gosh, she was in the store right when he was buying the ring". We buy the story although we know it happened because the movie had a single author. The people I meet, and the people you meet are not generally the same. You have a different script on what you will encounter. When I want to move to a town, it turns out the first guy i contact was the former mayor and is more than happy to welcome me to the community. Everyone get's their expectations. You don't want to take responsibility for your expectations. That simple. Look at everyone around you, at work, at SC.. They do not have the same experiences collectivize around them.. To an extent that can not be explained by their body language. Go ahead, have Cody's 'revelation'. Watch your reflection change as we talk. Relish your negative unseen power. I see it. Stop being 'butt-holes'. {'love won't play games with you anymore if you don't want it to' sings the radio now}. Did you know I could converse entirely with you simply by quoting what's on the radio at the moment? I am happy about my interaction with everything. I don't need to change you, it's merely a favor, though I would feel I lost a straggling sheep. I'm foreign to you; that's cool. You don't have to change either, but you have only yourself to blame for selling yourself short when it has been well described that you could have better. Being aware of air won't stop you from breathing, but it might stop you from hanging out near automobile exhaust. {"you can not quit me so quickly" (I'm going to start talking with you radio quotes till you get it)}
("The wicked we lies we tell to stay safe from the pain" "hope it don't take this ship down" "hiding in the bullets waiting for you" That's one you have that most worries me).
"Reach out, touch faith. pass it along, Jesus. You're on.. television. Pick up the receiver he'll make you a believer!!! Reach out, touch faith!!

This frequency has now ceased to be in service. Please re-tune your radio to 94.9 FM" next "So take, take all you want, I know that you want my soul......" next "She always rights the wrongs for me...." Well that's half way up the FM dial. There's plenty to work with there huh?  * smile *

My work is done here for now. Congratulations.
If you ever want something person to person, I'm still here though. When you get used to this conversation, the next phase is bypassing the people facade entirely and speaking vocally with god. This phase is easier; you can speak silently, listen, and pretend to keep your cool amongst 'people'. When you lose it entirely, well be there to pick you up though. Until then, you'll have to bear a paradox of dual realities. I should warn you now, you'll confront all your depths. You're steering now, so keep love in mind. Hopefully the awe of being connected will sustain you for the time being. Sometimes references like 'Sydney' will knock you down a notch. As you get closer, such references won't even exist, until then you'll have to filter a bit. I was hoping you'd come through by Christmas, instead you commemorate the final of my philosophy of religion class. I originally intended to make my final pulling the class through instead.
Thanks for the faith, you're in for an awesome time now (though it requires ongoing practice). There are no limits.
btw ¥ = Alt 157 (hold alt, type 157, release alt). I don't think we need it anymore though.

Thanks for that. I found a few links to Shekinah and I see the connection. I tried reading about Gevurah but couldn't see how that tied in. Holy Spirt=Shekinah=Physical manifestation of God on Earth (eg Burning bush, Metatron), but from what I can gather about Gevurah, it's about Might and the will to do what is right. How does that fit in exactly?

Interestingly, I then did a few searches on "gevurah consciousness" and found a link to a site talking about karma. I read about half a paragraph into it and thought "hmm, this writing style is familiar", and then I realised it was your site!  * smile *

As for the sevens, I'll have to admit that your explanation goes a little over my head (and when I say a little, I'm being kind to my head). One related thought I did have though, do you know of any instances of Fibonacci numbers in the Bible?

My site is so haphazard & out of date.
Holy Spirt=Shekinah - sure, but those are both on the disolution side, earth outbound energy in it's earthly manifestation, like the stratification of earth and mind spirit Jesus was promoting (to his later remorse, after realising that heaven on earth would have been a better manifestation than holy war transcendance). Burning bush is inbetween.
Metatron though is formative, nuclear physics. Related to Solomon and arc of the covenant sort of stuff.
I doubt Fibonacci is in the bible, but I saw an artist at LACMA paint flowing pyramids of the stuff. The work demonstrated fractal like binary creation seeds.
Gevurah is related to justice. In it's pure form, it is the hermit that contains detached wisdom. In practice, it means strangers will simply know at a glance that you can be trusted for deep answers. My knowledge comes from experience compared to text. Some start with text and try to fit potential experience into it. The conclusions will differ. Imagine trying to explain love based on romance novels. You could end up describing lust, passion, co-dependance or anything else.
7. We can use a compass to 2-sect a line exactly by drawing two arcs with a compass and drawing a line between the intersections. To 3-sect a line though requires approximation (dividers a bit wider this time, oops, too much, a hair less now). 7-secting a circle has always required approximation. I have an exact method though. A 2d compass can 2-sect a 2d line. Likewise a sphere can be 4-sected with a scoop-motion compass, and the 3-sected plane of the sphere projected down to a circle. Mechanical compasses of multiple dimensions can be built like an orery by using xyz displacement, timing, or eventually resorting to other codification like temperature or constituent color components. The extent that you can exactly x-sect a line or circle depends upon what dimension of compass you can build and project results down to lower dimensions.

You had enough faith to listen to your radio and discover that the universe is interactively alive with you. If you have a good memory, you'll realise it had always been that way, and that you were suffereng from what hindus call Abhinavesa, ignorance. Ignorance, limitation, is the nature of creation which prevents infinite amorphous simultaneous permutation. If you were to project all possible photos on a screen, you would get everything and nothing. I could lead you to a dozen planes of reality and all sorts of complications, histories, etc. But I recommend you concentrate on using your new tool of perception between God and you to find out who you are and how to make your life more heavenly. Study karma. The instantaneous interaction of thought and matter is what Lennon called instant karma, but you'll still have plenty lingering over year delays. If you want complication, check out my ancient "what level do you hear on" survey. There are lower levels of interpreting the options I hadn't realised when I composed it though.

I really hate to do this but, well you know me by now. Here goes, Songs are always about something. Mostly songs are about human interaction. Also, songs have limited time for lyrics to make their point, so nearly all lyrics must come with some meaning. My point is, listen to ANY song and you will get something from it that you can somehow associate with your life. That's why people who have just broken up with a girlfriend hate music, because everything they hear in songs makes them think about relationships because that's what songs are about. I hate to say it, but I don't see anything extraordinary about finding lyrics that pertain to me somehow. Sorry Kristal.....

¥"delivered directly to your home.. i'm a steak lover.. this message is for all you switchers.. course you can make up your own song.. tuesday stay in bed.. wedensday watch the walls instead." If you align yourself correctly, there will be no doubt.
"It's been a while since I could hold my head up high, since I first saw you, since I could call you, i stretched myself beyond my means, since i could say i loved myself, but all that seems to disappear when i'm with you, the consequences that I've rendered, i've gone and screwed things up again, make this go away, it's been awhile since i've said i'm sorry, i can not blame this on my Father".
If you want to be scientific ("the skid marks where we used to learn, the echoes of angels that won't return")about it ("he says all the right things at all the right times, but he means nothing to you and you don't know why. But you'll just sit tight and watch it unwind. it's only what you've been waiting for. He's everything you want, he's everything you need, i am everything inside of you") then try this experiment: be in a good mood and transcribe all you hear, then be in a foul mood and transcribe all you hear.
¥"If you try to hard to understand it you'll be wondering, is it a dream or what? Is this what they had in the mirror? Keep paying attention and it all clears up. It happens to the best of us. Your doing just fine, hombre".
There are two levels of interpretation to what you wrote (as there is with most anything). "'I don't see anything extraordinary about finding lyrics that pertain to me somehow.'" Good! * smile *

Well I'm pretty ambivolent at the moment so the experiment will have to wait. I'm also really tired. In case you're wondering there is some guy on TV here talking about how women masturbate all the time and "cum out just like a man can".

OK, channel 31 has a transvestite talking to two men who do 'Puppetry of the Penis" where they make things out of their balls and prick like a hamburger or a little man on a skateboard. What does that mean for me?
