Ken Meyering rhapsodized:
>The average ignorant abused white trash god fearing fucked
up little
kid has no concept of nanotechnology-based surveillance,
command and control systems with direct access to their
brains. In other words,
the Lord God Almighty.
... [snips]...
>Then again, for the emotional catharsis of meek athiests
who inherit
the earth, maybe some eternal suffering (~20 billion years)
for the
Christians. And then time stood still: a single second felt
like a
day: 4 dimensional freeze frame, feelings included. And
that
precious frozen moment: an ecstatic orgasm, a wonderful
breathtaking
vista of a mountain, lake, stream, field of flowers. No,
it's that
moment in front of the tv, watching Al Gore or George Bush
with his
left hand on the bible, being sworn in to office, you're
holding the
phone, you just learned that your whole family's been
murdered by a
disgruntled Jesus wannabee. 20 billion years of that
moment.
[silence... gasps.... the audience bursts into applause!]
thank you, Ken. When's your next reading?
