So I saw this bumper sticker today...

We aren't human beings having a spiritual experience--We're spiritual beings having a human experience."

:rofl:

Of course it was next to one of those coexist stickers.

2. You're a brain in a tank with electrodes...

To deny it is just what a tank bound brain would do.

5. So we're not human beings having a human experience?

This is very confusing.

6. Apparently.

It came as a surprise to me to find that out, but who am I to argue with a vapid slogan?

That also brings up the question of what it is when someone kills someone else--if we aren't human beings, it sure isn't homocide. I guess our spiritual energy is simply liberated from our imperfect bodies, leaving us free to haunt the shut out of whomever we want.

10. It's all the same bullshit to me.

Thetans, ghosts, meridians, gods, etc.
