the_universe_is_alive
The Truth The Universe was born into the sea of gray gravity. Youth passed by almost too quickly as she shot up like wildflowers on a fertile mountain meadow. She has her Father's eyes.
Infinite Beauty.
Who could ever know the totality of her secret glories? Her hidden blossoms do present themselves, a new one almost daily, as if to say,
"The Beauty of my past is the mediochrity of your future!"

And now in her blessed maturity, she finds herself impregnated by mystery. Comets swim through her in search of unfertilized fruit. The eggs inside of her lie dormant, void.

Eventually, a collision of random chance and destiny produce an astonishing miracle...
LIFE.

She is pregnant, and will reproduce.

But where she is only one, her offspring shall be countless.

And she has the patience of the stars, but she still awaits the time, perhaps before she fades out, when she can watch her children bloom into glory, just as she did eons ago.

Dafremen See? This is what I mean Truth. You are SOOOOO close to the truth with that paragraph, and then yer ball sort of hooks off of the cup and goes sailing off into the rough. It's a real shame too. Oh well, I'd love to get into it more, but I have an ego that's in dire need of stroking...so it's OFF to blather red! 010530
...
The Truth Oh, I'm sorry Dafremen. I hadn't realized that you were the supreme authority on what was Truth, and what was sand trappish. Please, please forgive me for formulating original thought patterns. For sailing away from your mainstream. Up until now I thought I could freely release my mind's vibrations throughout this website. I assumed the shackles of conformity and condescendance lay in broken heaps at my feet.

Thank you Dafremen for showing me your light. You saved me from so many percieved freedoms. I almost embarassed myself by dancing naked in a vast field, letting all my thoughts "hang out" in a sea without limitations.

But now, your very words have illuminated those cold steel bars that form the cage around what I once considered freedom.

The Truth Just so you know, though.
Here is the translation:
(and this is only my theory, but it wont be "proven" for another decade or so.)

I call it my THEORY_OF_PLANETARY_CONCEPTION


Comets are the sperm of the universe.
They even look like sperm...


Inside of a comet could be living water, any combination of atoms, gases, even frozen carbon based organisms.

And Planets are like unfertilized eggs.

Earth, according to the bible anyway, (which is the closest version of the truth that we have.) Was Once "Formless and Void" and "Water covered the surface" of the deep.
Just like everything else, when the Time is right, AND, a sperm fertilizes an egg, then the miracle of life is concieved.

Here is what I have pieced together so far...

We start out with the Earth, formless and void, No land yet. No life yet.

Then we learn that all the land used to be one giant land mass called Pangaea. All of the continents were once conjoined.

Which means, to me, that a comet or something crashed into the planet, through the water and the deep crust of the earth. Thereby allowing magma to burst through in large amounts. And thereby creating land. This is also the initial impact that destroyed the integrety of the planet, forming the techtonic plates. The Heat released from this collision was enough to melt through and break apart most of the comet, but large chunks flew here and there, splashing down all over the earth's liquid surface. Eventually, one, or even seven of those floating ice chunks contained life. They contained single celled organisms which were compatible with the earth's water.

SUCCESS! The universe is pregnant! Her planetary egg has been fertilized.

Now..if you are unfamiliar with the human reproductive process, go watch the first ten minutes of "Look who's Talking".

Now compare it to a comet colliding with a planet. notice any similarities??? Yes you do! Imagine a Giant ice ball gracefully decending on earth, sort of like a sperm connecting with the egg.

The two became one.

Now there are millions of sperm, but only one will fertilize the egg.
Now there are millions of comets, but only one will collide with a properly positioned planet.

ok...then bla, bla, bla...The life on earth grows and developes and somehow retains it's amazing balance of nature...
But when does that fetus become conscious?
At birth? After a year or two?
When does that planetary life become conscious?
At birth? no...
After 4 1/2 billion years?

We are the consciousness of the planet.
We are the children of the universe...

I'd go into more detail if I had time...but I've given you enough information so you can figure the rest out yourself.

Dafremen That was all very poetic and in fact not at all fantastic. The entire universe is even MORE incredible than THAT, however. It starts with perhaps the simplest of all simplicities, a ball of light, and becomes an eternal creation machine, cranking out not just life and life-bearing planets, but a trazillion(That's 1 followed by 42 Quintillion zeroes, to the 12th power) other fantastic and beautiful or mundane or hideous things many of which have never been seen, and may never BE seen. The absolute BRILLIANCE of the universe and its mechanism is irrefutable once it is realized that there is still something that our Creator (the universe) has accomplished that we very well may NEVER achieve.

The universe was able to create something capable of looking back on it and appreciating the magnificence of its own creator. Creating a witness to its glory.

To date man has failed miserably in emulating our Creator in this ONE simple thing. I say simple because I mean after all...what's a better description for a creation machine made out of a single ball of light than...simple?


P.S. Your sperm metaphor was well thought out and wonderfully poetic. I don't doubt that it's true.(Or at least SHOULD be) Not for a second.
In fact not much that comes from this Universe would suprise me....much anyway. You get an A- for creativity and a B+ for overall effort. Keep up the good work.

P.P.S. You are of course free to prattle on about WHATEVER you would like, wherever you would like. Sarcasm aside, that's the LAST thing in the world I'd want you to stop doing! Gawd forbid anyone should stop EITHER of us.
Of course I'll feel free to yack right back...as usual. I see no reason to spoil a perfectly good habit.

we are moving towards the end, when the stars fill the sky and the light at the end of the tunnel becomes literal.
