anyone can write a book.
ideas are spread by word of mouth, by influence, coercion, persuasion, implication.
and people are simply suceptable to these thoughts and the inheritence of these thoughts into our trains of thought.
almost as if the mechanism designed to transform memory into doing is applied widely and any and all information gets stuck in our brains...a building block to our lives our societies our histories. and we have no say. there are no mind erasers, no memory disenhancers, no natural filtration system to weed out the unimportant or unnecessary information. so we are all vulnerable to the capacity of eachothers brain.
like the only restraints might simply be in our make up. in the actual science of our minds, unless you prefer another classification other than science. But thats another conversation.
So what i mean is simply this:
if our brains have the capactiy of something like one cup of water, and we can only think in terms of water, we are self contained as a species to think within certain confines of what we've all been given.
And further, if we are all in this together...even playing field if you will, then I wonder what the restraints are when applied to the actual thinking "in terms of water", since, of course, this is our only guideline. What does that mean? Will different people think in terms of water differently? WIll all people be able to decipher another "thinking" in terms of water? Can your thinking of water affect my thinking of water? If I were to take a large portion of my water and chemically duplicate it, then drain the same amount from your cup of water and replace it with my chemically duplicated water, would I essentially be "brain washing" you (funny...washing...water...) by replacing your thoughts with mine? How many thoughts can fill up the one cup of water? Are we born with a predetermined "thought" of the water already in our heads? Or are each of our waters chemically different though we are all somehow able to share "ideas" of water because we speak the same language?
Have you ever thought about what other people see? I often imagine complete darkness and all of us running around seeing different things...imagining different masses then physically being aware of them...maybe when the brain creates a physical image it correlates the imaginary physical image and its "visual" reproduction (which is really just a tought of a visual image) to a "touching" sensation on all "touching" receivers (fingers, body, short hairs on the back of your neck). So really its all just one big mind fuck with all senses plugged in to the game console...
Remember in the 80's when they thought virtual realtiy would become a new world in which we already exist. Like we can set up a computer program to create a "car" in the virtual reality game, but there's no car there...its just a binary representation.
But what if we already exist in this virtual reality world...and we have forever... and we're just living out the game.
Is that what they think god is? The super IT man...the computer programmer that created this version of SIM CITY...and the universe is actually some clubhouse with a bunch of tech geeks with their own worlds...
Did you ever wonder what kind of societites ants have? And how they view humans? Are we similar to the "giants' we protray in our childrens books like "Jack and the beanstalk" or Lord of the Rings?
I guess if you remove the time/space continuum that we seem to have created as an explaination for our existance, or at least a user interface for it...what remains? Maybe its really like the Matrix. Or maybe this is all happening as some strange dream that is in actuality only a fraction of the "life" of whatever being is creating this dream...in whatever "world" it exists...
I'm thinking of starting a new religion as a way to make money...but also and probably more importantly as a way to examine the ease of interpretation and the power of marketing.
And in effect, as a way to exclaim to the "world"...look at how fucking silly we're all being.
