the sound of a one-handed man with the clap?
------------------
if someone on the internet posts something and no-one reads it, is it really there?
------------------
Sure the universe is a great place, but if it wasn't here, no-one would miss it.
If you take an infinite number of monkeys, put them in a room with an infinite number of typewriters, and supply them with an infinite amount of crack, would they really be able to post a retort as clever as zelazny's?

???????
(*scraches head*)
!!!!!!!
Yes!
Hmmm....err...
No...
------------------
Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers!
If a tree fell and crushed doodoo in the forest, would anyone care?
------------------
Errrr.... I would. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/frown.gif

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers!
*wonders if yadda yadda yadda understands the meaning of the word infinite*
If someone taught the meaning of the word infinite to yadda yadda yadda would he be able to comprehend it's entirety?

As miserable as life may be I hold it pretty precious...
If I lose the light of the sun, I will write by candlelight, moonlight, no light. If I lose paper and ink, I wil write in blood on forgotten walls. I will write always, I will capture nights all over the world and bring them to you.
Given an infinite number of geeks in an infinite number of internet message boards, would there be at least one with a life?
------------------
oh, tastingood, i am sure you're exaggerating!

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers!
maybe he meant infinitely short

agreed.

ok.

then why is there a word? (>definion/meaning)

this must be where i get lost.

then again, maybe they don't.

no kidding. perhaps why i have yet to post in this thread. however, i am not really sure what your post is supposed to resurrect. no, it isn't 'discoursing' god or anything else important. (i thought i explained this in another thread--*shrugs*)
is talk of god important?
other than god, what else is 'important'? to whom do we owe what is deemed 'important'?
explain your course.

i like this part of your post. it has some relevence--to what--i do not know. perhaps it just made me wanna reply.
what does'within it' mean? surely it cannot mean 'amongst'?
what is 'to exist'?
perhaps you care to recognize my humbling before you, oh wise one. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

If there is an infinity, then there can be only one!
Every single thought that arises in your mind is a delineation of space, the definition of an infinity is UNDELINEATED space, ergo, infinity CANNOT be a thought!
You also cannot therefore, have an 'infinite number' of anything, as infinity cannot be counted!, or numbered, other then the idea that there is one infinity, as in it exists!
Everything is one! (Quote from the "Sages of the Ages"....maybe they understood something none of you do)
The rest of the postings here appear rather childish, not really discoursing upon God, or anything else important, for that matter.
The real conundrum is trying to understand the idea that, if there is an infinity do we exist 'within' it?, and if we do, what does 'within it' mean?, and are you sensate to it?

Tell me now, what is it you are seeking, truth perhaps, or is it answers you seek, as where this leads is in a circle, as to make it complete.
As for the everything is one, as I said, perhaps the Sages of the ages (were do you get religion from that???, the practise of ones beliefs!) knew something that none of you here know...thats why you question isn't it??
To exist is to be, and to know that one is, self awarness, from a form of self reflection. aka E.G.O. (Everybodies Got One!)
What is important is one of those 'free willed' choices that you make for yourself, as obviously God is important to me.
As for the 'oneness', as undelineated space is inconceivable, and all of the rest of what we experiance is conceivable, we can only surmise that the infinite is not an item that we can know in our minds, the only other place left that is sensate is in your heart....figure it out, for it is a pathway of ideals that leads to the reality, physics proves that, but just, not yet has it been fully described by anyone.....that still awaits the secrets of gravity, Einstien himself admitted he hadn't found that one out!
