What good is free will if you don't exercise it?

"Life is complex.  It has real and imaginary parts." (ask Rich Rosen what the source is)

COINCIDENCE:  You weren't paying attention to the other half of what was going on.

tribade = lesbian

soften = word made up of all the letters which begin the names of numbers except zero

Suicide:  sure you should try to talk a friend out of it, if only for
selfish reasons.  But you have no right to physically try to prevent it
unless by doing so the friend will be making a mess on your property.

All generalizations are false.

Man as information:
(refs:  The Mind's I, the IAsfm/Analog Ray Brown stories,
the Cyberiad (2nd Sally), Infinity and the Mind)
This explains LSD trips where a person feels one with the universe.
It explains eastern religions.
The death of "me" is no big deal, as the structure of my existence
can again be created.  This applies across big bang/big crunches...
life is NOT meaningless.  Material possessions become less important.
Although everything may be cyclic, the "I" is essentially immortal--
there really is no "consciousness" as usually defined.  There can
easily be more than one of "me" and it makes no sense to say that any
of them is the real one.
The basis of this "religion" is the denial of Descartes' argument

 I think       -- "I" makes no sense
 therefore I am -- circular, existence of "I" presumed in first premise

Sort of a "mechanistic, yet meaningful" view of life.

Reincarnation is then possible.  In fact, becoming another person is
possible, assuming the hardware is compatible and a person can change
his/her way of thinking to match another's.
