Oh, look, it's an opposing opinion..with no explanation. Can you imagine that on a planet of mortals?

 

Seriously though, you come in here and post something that no one gets, then you get defensive and dare I say antagonistic to any response where people don't get it. And yet, you've come into the Rush section of The Rush Forum with a post that has the most tenuous connection to Rush possible and expect people are going to understand where you're coming from. If NO ONE gets it, maybe the onus is on you to relate things in a way people can understand where there's an actual relationship going on instead of you preaching something in a place not designed for it in a way no one can relate to. And to do it in an antagonistic way as "the antagonist" isn't going to get anyone to understand you, unless all you want to do is feel superior, in which case I guess mission accomplished?

 

I know, I know, everyone, don't feed the trolls, etc., but sometimes you gotta try...

What an odd thread. I haven't quite known what to make of it since it was posted. I read part of the poem. I couldn't bear the YouTube version, I read part of http://savitrithepoe...unknowable.html - Hindu, I believe. Quite lengthy.

 

The OP's post reads very much like "dogface mambo to the banana patch". I'm searching for the tongue in cheek aspect. I'm hoping it isn't a reflection of an unhinged mind and if it is, I seriously hope the OP finds some assistance. That's not me being flippant but sincere. Perhaps the OP could be more succinct and provide some context as to what he believes the new era is and what he believes it means to all of us and Rush. I am unable to connect the dots he has provided. A sales pitch?

 

I think you summed it up quite well, goob. Nice Spock photo, btw.

 

Or, maybe Kahn is right. :smoke:

 

or, perhaps (my personal favourite):

Genius.

The symbol (image, picture,metaphor) is the psychological mechanism for the tranformation of energy (of the mind).

Meanwhile, back at River Ridge Village, where the Fisher Stove is roaring with dry oak and the chimes are ringing amonst the snowy pines - signaling 2013 (the year of death, change, and transfiguration), the New Earth Administration (Rush calls it Earthshine), gets ready for the second leg of engaging the Seven Thunders.

"Delusions can also occur when there are cognitive defects in the deluded person. Flawed logic (which of course is not logic at all) can lead to the development of delusions. Individuals and groups all too often can accept very strange ideas with too little evidence to support their conclusions. This is often the case when people really really want to believe something is true because it will confirm other pre-existing beliefs or thoughts.

 

Delusions also can result from abnormal perceptual experiences from an incapacitated brain or nervous system. Normal environmental cues are misinterpreted because the brain is not functioning on all cylinders."

mortals will be mortals, and those not believing into the Light, but would prefer to be ensconced in their darkness, Jesus Christ is "killing them with death" (revelation 2:23).

You never know, could these three be the Golden Children that will eventually birth in the new era of the timelessness of unlimited illumination, or, just three more homo-sapiens, that have placed the cart before the horse; three more members of another lost generation; three more mortals in the metaphysical blackout standing on death row, content to bow to death.

 

John 8:51 He that keeps my sayings shall never see death.
