Assisted suicide is a contradiction in terms.
And not the same as the social provision to end a life.
The interesting question that arises here, is how does the social provision to end a life of suffering, sit with the anti-abortionists amongst us.

I neither believe nor disbelieve.
But as I have never witnessed a magical event, I cannot confirm such a possibility.
Though as I always say:
Everything that occurs within a Universe at any given moment, is naturally occurring.
Therefore if magic is possible, it is not supernatural.
And to rule over others, requires both strength and weakness.
Which is quite a common state of human affairs.

We share the same ability to input, assess, and develop information.
Which is a human strength and might be regarded as a power.

At times.
You said it trade.
So implications are what they are, and therefore logical to assume.
Not that I think that Middle Eastern fantasy gods ever existed.

Why would Noah need to rescue Eels?
They live in the sea Deb.
Paying $180 to sex a parrot sounds like an Aussie euphemism to me.
Was the full sex or just a blow job?

So GOD is only superfair at times?
Which implies, that at other times GOD is a superarsehole.
Sounds more like human behaviour to me Trade.

Perhaps Jesus will return and sort it all out.
It's the least he can do, considering him and his sort kicked off the whole fu*king mess in the first place.

I don't think any person in the world has such strong magical powers.
Neither do I.
Neither do I think that it is magical, to predict something that does not require predicting.

Hmmmmm, prospering or sinking into poverty is a time consuming process.
Would be sort of like taking responsibility for possible flood damage during a torrential storm, simply because you have an ongoing preoccupation with "Dark Gods".
Sort of like, someone with a preoccupation with nice things, taking responsibility for nice things.
And if you are still relatively youthful, your brain will still possess a greater propensity for acquiring, storing and remembering new data.
Magic is more like clicking your fingers and making a beautiful and compliant babe appear in your bedroom.

The second amendment is simply an old paper and ink addition, to an even older paper and ink manuscript.
Thing is, humanity, on the one hand knows more than back then, but still does just as much stupid stuff.

So, do you control world events before they occur or whilst they occur.
And I certainly have ideas pertaining to material existence...Which isn't to say that they are correct though.

For sure, meditation does drag on.
And as I have no magical powers, I therefore cannot increase them.
I am free enough already.
And I am also knowledgeable enough.
But thanks for the advice.

Probably true dat.
And VOVIN is an anagram of VINVO...There are others.
And studies show that meditating every day increases lifespan by 23 seconds.
Though the time wasted meditating far outweighs nett gain.
Though I do wonder if it is possible for a day to have a duration of 24 hours and 23 seconds.
NIVVO.

Hey TwoMan.
Perhaps heaven and hell do or don't exist.
But as things stand, reiterating fantasy concepts is a wholly subjective process.
And as I see it, violence promoted in the name of subjective fantasy is more than a tad immoral.
But then, one mans morality is another's immorality...Such is subjective data processing.
And if there is an interventionist GOD, the machinations of the organic soup that drives evolution on Planet Earth is probably of no consequence within it's bigger Universal scheme of things. Or not as the case may be.
By now that GOD/those GODS, are probably billions of light years away doing something else. Or not as the case may be.
Such is my subjective fantasy take on things.

There's this Italian one who is media popular at the mo.
But they've stopped showing full length pictures of it in running gear, because you can clearly see it's todger.
And it's seemingly got something to do with Harry Potter.
No...Not Harry Potters todger.

@Deb-8-a-bull
Thanks Deb.
Yep, people keep saying stuff as if they know something we don't.
And we keep telling them that we don't know exactly the same stuff that they don't know.
But they keep on and on.
GOD this,
And GOD that.
But all that they've got is a book that some blokes cobbled together a while back.
Yep, burning bushes...WTF.
What's wrong with hello Moses and how are you today?
Nope, burning bushes...What sort of omni-sensible creator does that?
OK...Perhaps he was having a daft laugh.
Perhaps GODDO likes scaring old men in the wilderness.
Though...Methinks that Old Moses was regularly of his trolley on some substance or another.
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo...Now there's a Aussie euphemism.
Did they ever mention Australia in the Bible.
I'm pretty sure that Wales didn't get a mention.
So who collected the Koala's and put them on the Ark?
And the Penguins.
Good day Bruce.

First things first.
It should be noted, that the existence of a Middle Eastern magical creator bloke, cannot be verified.
Let alone magical fantasy lands called heaven and hell.
I'm guessing that my dead relatives have in the main been retuned to the Universe in particulate form, save for a few tougher components of the buried ones.
We will have to wait and see.
Or not, of course.

Blah Blah Blah.
Perhaps.
A Universe is the re-initiation of a previous Universe.
There could have been billions of them.
So GOD is matter that possesses the ability to evolve.
And thinking blob and it's successors necessarily develop.
Perhaps.
Why?
Blah Blah Blah.

A GOD has never instructed anything about anything.
Though some old geezers supposedly met a GOD in private.
And hey presto, a list of instructions.
No mention of abortion or touching kids though.
Just, leave my missus alone and don't fiddle with my ox or my ass.
Handily presented on a lump of rock.
At the time, Mr Omni clearly hadn't thought about ink or a handier piece of paper.
Nor a photocopier.
And for sure, take the word theist and suffix or prefix to suit one's fancy.
Me, I'm an acrobatitheistaphobe.
I have a very disturbing somersault reaction to organised religion.

Natural food is no good if it is radioactive.
Though I am of the opinion that everything that occurs within a Universe at any given moment, is naturally occurring.
So radioactive food and subsequent death would be natural.

GOD is good with an O missing.
Good is GOD with an extra O.
Good GOD is a exclamation of surprise.
As is Jesus Christ.
Stored data, converted into contrived sounds and understandable noise, or symbols presented as a visually appreciable narrative.
As far as we know, nothing more nothing less.
Blah Blah Blah.

Living organisms have an inbuilt tendency to be pro-life.
And then for thinking man, there are a 101 other things to consider.
Which allows for thinking man to also be pro-choice.
And also allows them to be selectively moral.
So I doubt that many anti-abortionists are absolutely pro-life.
And similarly, I doubt that many pro-abortionists are absolutely pro-choice.
Such is the human ability to make more complex and variable decisions.

We tread a fine line between tolerant civility and brutal selfishness.

Yep, such is the question.
I'm living because, parents blah blah blah.
And I continue to live because the alternative as yet, isn't applicable.
There either is or isn't a reason for any of this.
