My theories, philosophies and religion is yours to do with as you will.

No one I have met has given me any respect, nor, assistence, aside from my wife, in my most lonely of trade.

I should be teaching at University, people should be interested in what I give you, for free. Even if I am meaningless next to what I actually write.

me 2

I am alone in what I create. I am a pariah. I am a heretic.

I am an absolute heretic.

Your eyes, are almost the only eyes, ever to have seen what I write.


its mostly good stuff.
Very interesting. way deep.


Quote:
I like to remind people of my absolute humanity. I like people to know how agonising my cognitive anomaly is.

I sometimes wonder if Life made me so terribly imperfect, so that the writing I do, somehow has more meaning.

I have to leave these forums soon. I won't be able to come back for a long time. My mind is about to shut down again. There will be no more editing, there will be no more writing for a while. I need to shut down soon and go back to seclusion.


I am sorry you feel that way. Maybe my place would be more your speed.


Quote:
But I'v been glad to share what I know.

I'm torn between sharing what I know, so that one day I can make a living from the writing I do.

I have dreams.

I want to build a worldwide religion based on my philosophies, so I can build temples, and the infrastructure that I need that can spread these ideas of mine across off all humanity.


Me 2

Quote:
I want to build schools, universities, and fund every type of scientific research that is possible.

I'm so ill, though. Can you imagine what would happen if I wasn't ill? It would be beautiful.

I am just as much a slave to my Aspergers as I am a slave to the philosophy that I write.


me 2, BUT, it can become a tremendous strength, esp if we find each other and work together.


Quote:
Until I die though, my work will never end. I can only hope that I succeed. The odds in my case are not high. I have no assistence. I have no one to talk to. People avoid me like I am cursed. The sanest man alive, may die without not a soul ever knowing what I know.


Things just changed, bro.
:heart: :alien: :sunny:


Quote:
But where there is Life, there is hope.

When I do walk away from this forum, and soon I will walk away, and I will be all alone again aside from my wife, I know that no one will be there to assist me. And Life only knows I need all the help I can get.


come on over and come on home...

:D

Tell me what little bit, that I have said that is a little bit to far out for you.

I'll try to rectify it, or explain my position in a little more detail.

My writing is imperfect I know that. But you have perked my curiousity now.

I am about as far out on the extremes of neurodiversity as it's possible to get. I know what I say is difficult to believe in. I am the one cursed, and blessed with the way I think, I understand your skepticism I am a skeptic myself. I will do my best to accomidate you if you tell me what it wrong with what I said.

I am curious now.

You were clear. No need to explain. My views are pretty much identical to yours, but they are my views and I do not feel any need to 'spread' my ideas. But, hey, that's me and you are you. No problems...just stating it's not my particular style.

Nothing wrong with what you said at all, and I happen to dig far out people.

I see.

Yeh I can understand what your saying now. The difference between you and me is that I do feel the need to create what I believe in and then paint that onto the surface of human reality. Even with my broken brain and physiology I am still a leader, not a follower, if only in spirit... There are temples to build, administration to pay for, people to convert, schools and universities to build, scientific research of every kind to fund. There is the very space beyond the Earth to reach out to and explore and learn to survive in. This takes money, this takes power, beyond what I am currently able to attain. I feel the need to be a leader and be an example of what the implications of the philosophies I teach would be like manifested in the flesh.

I believe in leaders and followers, and both positions are equally important. Some people may simply choose to rebel against any kind of leader that rises within human culture. Being a follower of someone's philosophies is nothing to be ashamed of. Rebelling against a philosopher, or more directly someone who writes religion, whose work is obviously of value to the survival of humanity out of stubborness is certainly questionable, but it is not for me to force people to follow what I teach. One isn't converted to Unviersalism through force of arms, one is converted to my religion through the philosophy itself, or not at all. I will not force people to believe in the religion I have created, Universalism speaks for itself. I am merely it's subserviant author. People are free to believe whatever insane information that relates to Existence that they wish to. Of course, with the extreme severity of my Aspergers I am hardly ever going to be a public speaker, capable of rhetoric that inspires the masses and converts them to my cause. I can write though. The thought of speaking to crowds of people is enough to put the very fear of God into me. It's quite something, to imagine, what I would be like as a human if I didn't have Aspergers, didn't have crippling anxiety and coulld speak to crowds with the same level of confidence that I am currently writing on this forum. People would be throwing their money at me, to hear what I have to say. Money I could put to actual use.

You really need to explore the link that I have posted above. It is a further exploration of my philosophies in more detail. Although I have deliberatly left out certain details. I don't want to give away all my secrets unless you all as forum readers make a true effort to engage my interest. I'm used to working alone. I find the process of sharing some of my philosopy cathartic but I am resigned to the fact that I am going to have to work completely alone and quite possibly completely unrecognized as an author.

I am someone who feels that writing opinions, about the nature of Existence and about religion, is simply not enough. Certainly not enough to satisfy my own needs.

I feel the need to take the philosophies I write and the religion I write, and take it to the next level.

I feel the need to paint the way I see reality onto the very surface of the Universe. I feel the need to paint the way I see the Universe, onto the very surface of Existence. And create a definitive presence on Earth, a physical presence in which people can rally around, long after I die. I would like Universalism as the foundation of a religion to have meaning as a concept until the very ends of human Existence. I certainly have designed the philosophy of Universalism so that, that can actually remain a possibility. I tend to think very far ahead. The proof of this concept is hidden in the link I have provided above.

Nothing less than the expression of my philosophies, in being founded as the basis of a long lasting religious institution, is sufficent to satisfy my need, my existential craving, my existential addiciton. Although I also accept the fact that I may die with what I need to be truely satisfied as a living being, having being totally unrealized, by my own failure to create the philosophy of my religion and found it on Earth. And I am resigned to the fact that I may never be realized as a true and constructive writer of religion.

I can appreciate the difference between those that absolutely have to paint religion onto the very surface of the Universe, such as myself, for example, through the creation of temples that serve as points at which all human beings can congregate in and learn how I see Existence, in relation to those people that are followers of religion and just need a place to feel comfortable and can find people that they can relate to about how they see and feel about Existence, a place in which people like myself, can feel safe in and can celebrate the most profound gift of their Existence in the way that makes them feel comfortable. I want to create a place that people like myself can feel at peace in the likeminded company of others.

No one deserves to feel alone about how they feel about Existence. People like myself have a certain need to socialize with people who feel the same way about Existence as I do. A temple, and a religion is simply somewhere someone can go to hang out with people that they can relate to, you know. Go see movies together and, you know, just generally shoot the breeze, drink a beer, have outdoor underground dance parties with, eat a simple dinner together with, celebrate the gift and Existence, and just generally have fun with, across the millenia. While we kind of you know, advance in science and technology and generally evolve and become more enlightened, in ways my own imagination can't even calculate.

it'd qualify for the most money from bush's faith based initiatives program along with being tax-exempt.
