"When I became convinced that the Universe is natural that all the ghosts and gods are myths, there entered into my brain, into my soul, into every drop of my blood, the sense, the feeling, the joy of freedom. The walls of my prison crumbled and fell, the dungeon was flooded with light and all the bolts, and bars, and manacles became dust. I was no longer a servant, a serf, or a slave. There was for me no master in all the wide world, not even in infinite space. I was free.
free to think, to express my thoughts
free to live to my own ideal
free to live for myself and those I loved
free to use all my faculties, all my senses
free to spread imagination's wings
free to investigate, to guess and dream and hope
free to judge and determine for myself
free to reject all ignorant and cruel creeds, all the "inspired" books that savages have produced, and all the barbarous legends of the past
free from popes and priests
free from all the "called" and "set apart"
free from sanctified mistakes and holy lies
free from the fear of eternal pain
free from the winged monsters of night
free from devils, ghosts, and gods
For the first time I was free. There were no prohibited places in all the realms of my thought, no air, no space, where fancy could not spread her painted wings
no chains for my limbs
no lashes for my back
no fires for my flesh
no master's frown or threat
no following another's steps
no need to bow, or cringe, or crawl, or utter lying words.
I was free. I stood erect and fearlessly, joyously, faced all worlds. And then my heart was filled with gratitude, with thankfulness, and went out in love to all the heroes, the thinkers who gave their lives for the liberty of hand and brain for the freedom of labor and thought
to those who fell on the fierce fields of war
to those who died in dungeons bound with chains
to those who proudly mounted scaffold's stairs
to those whose bones were crushed, whose flesh was scarred and torn
to those by fire consumed
to all the wise, the good, the brave of every land, whose thoughts and deeds have given freedom to the sons of men.
And I vowed to grasp the torch that they had held, and hold it high, that light might conquer darkness still."
-Robert G. Ingersoll (1833-1899), "Why Am I An Agnostic?", 1896

We are part of the universe. Our earth was created from the universe and will one day be reabsorbed into the universe. We are made of the same matter as the universe. We are not in exile here: we are at home. It is here and nowhere else that we can see the divine face to face. If we erect barriers in our imagination - if we believe our real home is not here but in a land that lies beyond death - if we believe that the divine is found only in old books, or old buildings, or inside our head - then we will see this real, vibrant, luminous world as if through a glass darkly. The universe creates us, preserves us, destroys us. We are part of nature. Nature made us and at our death we will be reabsorbed into nature. We are at home in nature and in our bodies. This is where we belong; this is where we must find and make our paradise, not in some spirit world on the other side of the grave. If nature is the only paradise, then separation from nature is the only hell. When we destroy nature, we create hell on earth for other species and for ourselves. Nature is our mother, our home, our security, our peace, our past and our future. Science is inherently materialist. It always seek material explanations. It never accepts as an explanation that some spiritual force was at work - if it did, then science and technology would come to an end. Disease was once thought to be caused by witchcraft. Science gave it a material explanation which allowed us to control it. Magnetism at one time seemed like a spiritual force - Thales of Miletus thought that magnets were full of spirits. But then science provided a material explanation. In the same way scientific pantheism believes that everything that exists is matter or energy in one form or another. Nothing can exist, be perceived, or act on other things if it is not matter or energy. That does not mean that spiritual phenomena or forces cannot exist. It means that, if they do, they must in fact be material. In scientific pantheism, science becomes a part of the religious quest: the pursuit of deeper understanding of the Reality of which we are all part, deeper knowledge about the awe-inspiring cosmos in which we live, deeper knowledge of nature and the environment, so that we can better preserve the earth's wealth of natural diversity. In scientific pantheism, cognitive openness - listening to reality, to new evidence, to all the evidence, to other people's needs and feelings - becomes a sacred duty in all aspects of life from science to politics to domestic life. Of course, we cannot say that science endorses pantheism. Many religions today state their beliefs in ways that no-one can disprove, so they can and do co-exist with science. But scientific pantheism positively thrives on science. scientific discoveries continually underline the wonder and the mystery of Being, the immensity of the universe, and the complexity of nature.

"I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter"

-"In the End" by Linkin Park

well. the news is out about about jialing's suicide. apparently, she was accused of handphone theft...denied the accusations vehemently...then afraid to go home to face up to her parents...so she jumped...in her sch u...right outside her home.
for those not in the know, jialing was my p5 classmate.

shall not comment on her death. such matters are better kept to oneself.

"There's no problem on this earth that can't be solved with a liberal dose of high explosive"
- Founder and former commander of SEAL Team SIX, Richard "Dick" Marcinko

Timo's Party: Part II
*first, a random though from yours truly: the US soldiers in Iraq are going to be wiped out soon*

ok, so thou shalt continue with thy misadventures at unit 21g, the areca.

ok, so after yufeng lost her lil butterfly pendant, which according to them, was given to her by wanwin...err everyone started searching for it, yah? all the guys started getting excited and gung-ho when suddenly...someone realised that they had no way of looking for it in all that murky blue water in the pool. so most of the guys ended up following stiu "the fish"'s idea, and started randomly dragging their feet around in the hope that someday their feet will strike something solid, and lo and behold, they will discover the pendant. someday. screwit. noone was making any progress whatsoever. then someone asked,"how big is the pendant?"

...silence...then i replied "pendant-sized," and promptly got slapped by someone else, think it was lincoln.

matters became complicated when people started getting excited, and thinking they hit something solid, dived down into the water, only to grab at a particular patch of water which didnt seem to resemble a butterfly pendant after all. so i decided to do things my way. dived down and started searching the floor of the pool itself. and found the pendant within less than a minute. so i raised my hand up in triumph, just like arnold-fucking-schwarzenegger did in Predator...and promptly got mugged by about 10 other guys who all wanted to get a piece of me, if not the pendant. a heroic struggle ensued...in which the hero finally made his way across the barbaric mess of human bodies and returned his pot of gold to yufeng. roflmao. then after that. lincoln decided that it was time to celebrate my recovery of the pendant...and so i was given royal treatment, i.e. i had my underwear well taken care of by Lincoln Royal Wedgies and Co, Pte Ltd. when i came out of that brief little fling, stiu thought that my underwear was a fucking belt. had to go home in timo's buford boxers that night...selfish brat wun lend me his pierre cardin underwear. :P

after my underwear's dramatic little transformation from brief to g-string, we started getting bored again, and naturally started looking for any sort of action in the pool. Thus began the 'dunking game'. started off innocuously enough, with just guys dunking other guys, with lots of screaming thrown in. Then came the special effects dunks, eg. handspring, front-flip, and my personal favourite, huanglu's attempted aerial-turned-silly-looking-cartwheel. Then came the co-ed dunks, when yufeng started to join in the fun and made the beeg mistake of trying to shove lincoln into the pool. lincoln turned around with that "you are SO in deep shit!"look, yanked her up by the waist, spun one big round and flung her into the pool, big splash and all. :)

then she came out again. and got thrown in again. and out again. and in again. out.in.out.in. the same thing was happening to me though. quite an exciting way to work out. then i decided to turn the tables, and the next unlucky guy who tried to turn me into a soaking-wet motherfucking seal was gonna get a rather nasty experience of his own, heheh. unfortunately, the next unlucky guy who tried to do just that was garry! he came over...and tried to move me. i spun around. grabbed him by his tits. and 'heave ho, cocksucker!" gave him a rather vigorous lesson on how-to-swim. my style, of course.

the dunking game went on for about an hour, i'd say, consisting mostly of people getting wet, drying off, and getting wet again. even wanwin joined in the fun, though i might say she was trying REALLY hard to stay out of it, heh. then at around 11, ppl started leaving. the rest of us carried on till about 11.20, where we decided it was about time we experienced how it felt like to be dry again. so we got outta the pool, and soggily made our way back to timo's house, where we more or less moisturised the place. i borrowed timo's boxers, went into a toilet, dried myself off as much as i could, wrung the water outta my soppy clothes, and erm...put them on again. then met up in timo's room, where it was decided that lincoln would tompang me home, and the girls would fetch a cab home by themselves. then it was decided that i take a cab with yufeng and leave lincoln to rot. so with plans set, we headed for the bus-stop (nearest available shelter wat) to wait.
-oh gosh. have only said three fucks since the beginning of the post. damn, im losing my touch.
right. so while the four of us fuckers fucking waited like fucking waiters in the motherfucking-cocksucking-pencil-dicked bus-stop, we fucking talked about fucking stuff that fucking concerned us one fucking way or another. then good old motherfucking me realised that there were two buses there that would be able to bring my soggy ass back home without the small-little problem of paying for the cab fare. so i told the others i would be going home by bus. so 93 came. flagged it down and was about to heave myself onboard when yufeng asked me to...go home with her...and...told the bus driver to move on. lesson: girls in bright yellow are evil.
GRRR.
then after awhile 28 came. i was taking no fucking chances, hahah. got yufeng's msn before scrambling onboard and waving goodbye to the three sorry little drenched rags left on the bus-stop. HOO-YAH. :D:D:D
