So THAT'S why wokies have pink, blue, yellow or green hair-- and sometimes all at the same time. How very considerate of them.
:D I have had a similar thought and it brings joy to me that I am not the only one. Thank you.

As long as you have a solid argument for your 'evil-doing' (justice, self-defense, etc), there is no longer any fear of hell. You just accept it as part of the package of staying true yourself. Suffering can be done, but betraying yourself is something you can not bear to witness. That is a hell longer than any eternity.

Aye.

That leads to the appeal of Christian redemption.

The point is for the receiver to state, for that is the point received.

See the last posting with prom for an example of this.

I don't know what you mean (I never do) but that dot wasn't directed at you or anyone else on here.

The transmitter is one. The receivers are many. Each receiver is tuned to a frequency that gives meaning to the dot. If not tuned to a meaning by the receiver, then the transmitted dot is just meaningless static.

For example: "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"* is a similar situation to posting a single period.

As far as I am aware the saying goes. "If the glove fits, wear it"

That certainly changes things.

If the shoe fits, walk it.

Democracy made the crown of rulership to be placed on all the people of a land, those who consider this crown to belong to one person and one family are looking for misfortune and destruction of a land.
