In reply to: Star S. 's message, "....the sad thing is, you actually believe what you say. *shakes head* I'm sorry that you live in such a fantasy world; I only hope that one of these days you wake up and realize that (a) you are not god, nor any god you created in a series you've written, (b) humans cannot live forever; as a race we are doomed, it's just a matter of time, and (c) your so-called "characters" are just that; fantasy characters, no more real than fever-dreams." on 23:22:42 12/04/03 Thu

When God created people, he made them in his physical image, yes, but that wasn't what made humanity special. What makes humanity special is that God gave us his own capacity for CREATIVITY. You say I live in a fantasy world where nothing I think will happen. I see myself seeing infinate alternate realities, places where what I dream is real and what for me is real is there a dream. You don't need to be worshipped, make the universe out of the void, or flood a planet to be a "god", you just need to USE that gift of God's. I use it, and whilst you may ridicule me until the Plains of Meggido, I shant change my ways nor forsake my beliefs.

And that's the crux of the matter, right there. It's all fine and dandy to think things like that in your mind, but when you start to act it out, that's when you're becoming what psychiatrists and your average person would label as "delusional". Creativity is one thing; delusions are another. You've gone waaaaay past creativity into the "Delusional Zone". -- Star S., 23:05:15 12/06/03 Sat
- And there it is. I was wondering just what the issue was, and now I know. *eats Cool Whip right outta the bowl* I'm border line delusional, with a hint of criminal insanity. But I can curb it when out in the real world, to make my money. Example: I've already made my paycheck, and I have another week to go in the pay period. ^_^ Looks like a $1,200 check come 12/19 . . . ^_^ . . . Anyway, Magni, redefine the borders and it'll all work out. (NT) -- Jim Ohki, still not a millionaire, 10:09:40 12/07/03 Sun
