A Cosmological Rant
Science ought to be
Self reflective enough by now
To stop explaining stuff
By an evidence-less theory
That everything came
From nothing
It is infinitely illogical
The same goes for that God fellow
Given credit for reshaping
What was already already here
“Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.”
Genesis 1 2
Doesn’t that make us / myself
Always, all ways a part of that
“Spirit of God”?????????
Yes ?, no?
May be yes, may be no?
I’m just asking for 8 billion fellow space travelers
Does it matter?
If matter doesn’t matter?
Or only exists if observed?
I have faith that i
(yes, the small i)
Have always existed
In one form or another
The current “I” existing
In the here and now
Is an ego in an autonomous
Anthropomorphic vehicle
With five base senses
To experience experiences and
Make these dopey observations
Also, to utilize available exergy *
Of me being a better me
In such an efficiently lazy way
So I do not have to do this shit again
* Exergy is the measure of the maximum useful work that can be extracted from a system as it reaches equilibrium with its environment.
Satiating the temporary ego just enough
To meld back with the Spirit of God / Word
That one emanated from to experience itself
And based on logic and reason… do it again
“Help me. Help me to find my true
Self without seeing the future
Save me, save me from torturing
Myself, even within my dreams
There’s got to be just more to it than this
Or tell me why, do we exist
I’d like to think that when I die
I’d get a chance another time
And to return and live again
Reincarnate, play the game
Again and again and again.”
– Iron Maiden
“Infinite Dreams”
If we are made from the dust of the stars
It would behoove us / myself to
Shine as bright as possible while
Providing light and warmth to our surroundings
“I am made from the dust of the stars
And the oceans flow in my veins. “
-Rush
“Presto”
A rant is a rant is a rant
A good rant keeps going
Have you seen the dopey depiction
Of how the “Big Bang” occurred
It always starts from left to right
Never bottom upward or vice-versa
Never right to left or any other angle
Why because it is only a theory
Science’s weakest argument is that
The universe is expanding
Based only on that detailed drawing
Yet it is so vast and never-ending
It is never presented that it is
Contracting in a different direction
Unlike the cosmos, this rant has to end
Will close it out with a Pete Holmes observation
“But it doesn’t matter if you’re an atheist. You’re a theist, I actually think we’re all kinda in the same boat. Really, I do. Some people think God created the universe. Some people think nothing created the universe. Which is the funniest guess? [audience laughing]
The “nothing” people make fun of the “God” people. They say, “God doesn’t exist.” I’m like, “Okay, maybe.” But you know what definitely doesn’t exist? Nothing. [audience/laughing]
That’s the defining characteristic of nothing, is that it doesn’t exist. So what are we talking about? Either you think it’s God, something you can’t see, touch, taste, photograph, and science can’t prove, or you think it’s nothing, something you can’t see, touch, taste, photograph, and science can’t prove.
But I think we can all agree if nothing, if your nothing, sometimes spontaneously erupts into everything, that’s a pretty goddamn magical fucking nothing, you guys. [audience/laughing]
And ask… ask the “nothing” people, “What happens when you die?” They’ll tell you, “Nothing. You go into nothing.” I’m like, “You mean you merge back with your creator?” [audience/laughing]
“That’s heaven, bitch.”
– Pete Holmes
Isn’t it beautiful that we all want to find a way to make sense of it all, even if we’re making sense by saying other things don’t make sense? It’s quite fantastic! The urge to comprehend beingness. That’s what your blog excels at. Thanks also for the laughs!!
