I see both, but what about that MOTHERFUCKING SQUID. Or the headless wizard with his arms spread holding a microphone in his left hand.

well, if you're not expecting it, I guess it wouldn't be too fun. However, if you take acid, shrooms, or DXM+DPH [and don't have a bad trip], hallucinations can be a lot of fun.

Dawkins said he would've preferred the wording to be "There is almost certainly no God".

anyway, move along people, nothing to see, etc.

this is now an awesome atheists thread. pic related.

Plan-9-o-phobia?

Couldn't find a name for it, but Fear of Dying is Thanatophobia, so let's call your's....Athanatophobia.

The fear of infinity is Apeirophobia. Why isn't there a fear of finity? I think I could very likely have that.

Maybe we can 'experience' time, but we can't fully comprehend it, by: a. fully quantifying it or b. moving along it freely

Take into account Carl Sagan's simple explanation of a 4th dimension. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnURElCzGc0

I think we are like that person in flatland, and as he only can see flat pieces of the apple as it goes thru flatland, we can only see time as it moves forward.

Or maybe I'm just really tired.

Psychology, perception, schema, etc. I'm interested in how long it will take for the human brain to be fully mapped, especially in revealing that what is at once thought of as "subjective" is really objective, we just haven't mapped it yet to make a true judgement. It's a hope....

Satanism is kind of like an injoke to atheists.

A spring, to launch itself on said mates & prey. [goddamnit I wish I could draw]

0/10

Atheism doesn't revolve around a diety. It is a decision based on a lack of proper logical evidence. Move along everyone, just another troll.

good luck getting it to not tip over and slam you on your ass.

Meth.

Okay, fine. There's many ways: Green tea, meditation on a daily basis, just google "ways to improve concentration"...

pic related, this is a tesseract (hypercube). From what I've heard, it's a 4D object projected onto a 3D plane (as that is all we can see).

If that is so, how does time factor into it?

>>2351145
Then what the fuck does the hypercube have to do with it? (honest question)

>Waking Life

A Scanner Darkly (directed by same guy as WL)
Brazil (Gilliam)
2001: A Space Odyssey (Kubrick)
Muholland Drive (Lynch)
A Clockwork Orange (Kubrick)
Barton Fink (Coen)
Being John Malkovich, Adaptation (both Kaufman)

okay, watch Adaptation first. that'll make you think like crazy. there's a lot of good humour in it as well.

Memento?

And are you looking for mindfuck movies, or ones that make you stop and think?

If pure mindfuck, go for Holy Mountain. that is all.

inb4 somebody quotes A Beautiful Mind

"...and that is why I believe the universe to be banana shaped..."
