How many lives do you want today?
Posted: Sat Mar 18, 2006 3:16 pmOr even a better name might be "What in the bloody hell is my life number today?"
I'm actually curious about something a new member energypolice has said.
He said the following in a thread I'm mostly ignoringbecause of how irritating the thread is, however, I can't ignore the following statement and now I'm actually curious about it:
Ok. Now excuse me for being ignorant, but what exactly do you mean by "seventh life-time"?
Is this the seventh time you've been alive?
Last I heard, cats were the only species rumoured to go beyond that normal "one-life" rule we mortals seem to have adopted, and while I'm not anxious to throw my Vivaldi out of a window several times to see if he can match your "seventh life-time," I'm actually quite curious as to how a person could believe that this is their seventh life-time on the planet Earth.
This isn't as much as a slag at you, energypolice at all, as I'm really quite curious as to how someone can believe that this is indeed their seventh life-time and how you would have proof regarding that.
You also proclaim in another post that you are indeed a saint.
How do you get to be a saint?
Do you get a promotion at work and aside for the pay rise, become a saint?
Last I remember from my studies in art, it wasn't something you could just say about yourself, but rather had to be ordained after much good work had been done at your hands and recognised by someone with much religious power... usually long after you had died.
I'm not only quite curious as to how you're alive a seventh time, and if that's actually what that means, but how you can claim you're a saint if you're still actually alive.
As an Athiest and a Distorted Jew, I have some pretty odd ideas on life myself that are mostly there for comedic purposes, but I still welcome other religious beliefs quite warmly unless people attempt to force them on me, in which case I react quite logically and usually argue them down.
In this instance, I'm actually quite curious as to how this works and, not wanting you to feel offended nor to engage in a ridiculous religion face off pulling in the ID people too who always seem to want to have a say, I want to know how this works as opposed to just ignoring the comment and going "yeahh... righhhtt..." and ignoring it the way I normally would.
