Philosophical Quandaries regarding God Delusion

[janev]

Wtf is this shit? Summarize in one sentence please.

I am God, the maker of the universe, currently "arriving" on Earth, which means that a global change of direction of reality-timing is taking place, so that sanity can finally rule the planet, but since I am the source of this sanity, the whole battle concentrates around my person, and that is what we are experiencing here in part.

Oh, well... Good luck with that.

Or even better... THIS?

* Aelita sits down and puts hand on head.

I.. I don't even know what to think anymore. You've blown my existance out of the water and shattered all of my reality.

What is real? What is up, down, black, white? Is it all the same?

When we realize that reality as we know it is an illusion, then we have solved the greatest of problems, and we can move on. You see, there is (in reality) no such thing as time. Rocks and plants, and even animals, are not aware of the passage of time. That's because time doesn't exist for them. Time only exists for sentient beings. It is the invention of a thinking mind. Once we drop the silly notion of time, we can exist in the moment. This will lead to our becoming all powerful. No one I know has done this yet, and even I am barely getting better at it.

A Brief History of Time - Stephen W. Hawking. Good book. Touches on time and perception of it.

A Brief History of Time... [it] Touches on time

Oh really?

[Conzul]

They've been telling me about it, I'd actually give it a go over if I ever stopped playing tremulous.

Srsly my colloquialisms are worse than that. If a person takes the time to capitalize the first word of the sentence, they are usually using that as a first word intentionally. [This happens] In many cases.

Not that it matters, since nothing is real anyway.

You know the reason for that... [] is because I changed his sentence by excluding what I wasn't referencing. So the sentence is now different, and "Touches on time" doesn't make much sense without the context PB previously had surrounding it. But thank you for your response, if it mattered that much to you. I hope this helps put your mind at ease.

I call semantics!

I left it up to common sense. Leaving things out that require an editor to amend with a [missing_word] or a sic is pretty colloquial (at least, in the spoken English (which is not the internet English; I know)).
