What is nothingness?
In my understanding which is very subjective, nothingness is the Source of all there is...we the creation from the nothingness are like peas in the soup, so to speak, nothingness is the soup, to put it simple!
Nothingness is that space where thoughts and creation are born…
Your thoughts are created in the 'nothingness' or space between thoughts - I think!
Well, the way I learned (I'm Jewish) was that there is basically an emotionless, senseless utter void that you plunge into immediately upon death. And that's where you stay until the Messianic era. But since it is a complete void, there is no real passing of time, so your stay there seemes instantaneous.
I can never imagine nothing, when I do I just think of blackness.
Nothingness is what fills the gaps between matter and what spans the distance between stars.
I was thinking about this last night, because my husband and I were talking about the christian problem with death. I noticed that when I encounter a christian who probably isn't used to talking to atheists, the first thing he invariably says is, "you're an atheist? Well, where do we go when we die? Answer that one, big man!" He thinks he has a trump card, because he cannot conceive of death. Getting deeper into the belief, he cannot picture nothingness, and that bothers him.
The truth is, he can't picture nothingness, and neither can anyone else. The word "nothingness" is a problem, because it implies a noun, which implies existence. The individuals above have made nothing into something. You just can't do that! Nothing doesn't exist. You can't float around in nothing. The last guy, who said "nothingness is what spans the distance between stars" is wrong. It's called space. It is actually something. A vacuum, a distance. Stop thinking that nothing is like space!
I was like these folks. I thought of death, and I had an image of a person floating around in blackness. Imagine an astronaut, like in 2001 a Space Odyssey, flung into space, without being pulled apart by the vacuum, floating around, limp. I also thought that somehow you might wake up and death becomes a hell of lying inside a coffin for all eternity, with nothing to do but sleep. Death's eternity is boredom.
But none of this is nothing. I understand why people relate it to death, but here's my take on it. Neither you or I can ever be dead, because it's impossible to be dead. There is no more I in death. It is also impossible for something to not exist, because there is no something in nothing. So when they ask, "why something rather than nothing?" I answer, "because there is no other possibility. No other choice. Existence has no opposite, because it is the first, the prime, the irreducible.
Once again, the religious have it backwards. It is not I who believes in nothing. They do.

I can see your soul, and I know it is a righteous one. I have chosen you as a disciple for my new dispensation. My message is born of love, but it will not tolerate dismissal. Accept it or perish with the monkey-horde
IN THE BEGINNING, this planet was created with a certain destiny path in mind. Its creators (the "elohim," a group of vast, intelligent beings who combined forces to create this sector of reality) envisioned a rich environment where the planet's theme of "seeking harmony in diversity" could play out. However, there were other beings that saw an opportunity to insert themselves into the paradigm and eventually did so, so successfully that the original blueprint for the planet was essentially abrogated and converted to another agenda entirely.
The first of these deceivers was Yehoshua-ben-Panderer-ben-Satan, otherwise known as Jesus (the Monkey-) Christ; aka LUCIFER. We, Sara, We, Lyara, We, TED jesus christ, We are returned to this earth (Teegeeack) with a prophecy and a warning. Accept in charity, for your sake and others. God will cast down the deceivers and the deceived!
For the first time in a history of our civilization the Message of non-human intelligence is discovered. Here I will begin to acquaint you with this Message. It was left to us many thousand of years ago. ... Full decoding and understanding of the Message will require many years. The Message, in particular, this contains information on global catastrophe in the history of the Earth, revival of life after this catastrophe, with reasons and method of prediction of similar catastrophes.
I received this message from celestial visionaries from beyond Cassiopiea. I have the gift of telepathy and I CAN READ YOUR THOUGHTS!!!
In 2012 the next polar reversal will take place on earth. This means that the North Pole will be changed into the South Pole. Scientifically this can only be explained by the fact that the earth will start rotating in the opposite direction, together with a huge disaster of unknown proportions.
I am revealing to you the immense cataclysm that is going to torment the earth in the near future. It is presently assumed by most people and the general scientific world at large, that the rotation of the Earth is stable, however, this is not the case. The gruesome reports of the previous catastrophes should, hopefully, be clear to all.
The historical exploration of cosmology in previous books is founded on the translation of hieroglyphs, cracking of codes, unveiling of the magnetic reversal of the sun, study of old maps, decoding of astronomical clues, geological research, and the discovery of the most exciting archaeological find in modern times.
Considering these I came to the following conclusions:
1. With clock-like regularity, sudden reversals and pole shifts are natural to the Earth. The result is worldwide destruction, and is supported by paleo-magnetic evidence and early manuscripts.
2. The reversal of the poles is attributed to the harmonic cycle of the magnetic fields of the sun.
3. Polar reversals can be calculated precisely on the basis of the sunspot cycle theory or the magnetic field theory, which the Maya and the Old Egyptians were privy to. These secrets are contained in the Labyrinth of Hawara, a huge complex consisting of three thousand rooms.
I want to explain abundantly clearly that life after a polar reversal is nothing but horror, pure unimaginable horror. All securities you presently have at hand, like - amongst others - food, transport, and medicines, will have disappeared in one big blow, dissolved into nothingness. As will our complete civilization. It cannot be more horrifying than this; worse than the worst nightmare. More destructive than a nuclear war in which the entire global arsenal of nuclear weapons has been deployed in one blow. Are you grasping the facts?
The earth will be subjected to total destruction. It will be many times worse than my description. Terrible hunger, cold and pain, and more will rule your daily life: without hope of a quick recovery, because all knowledge and resources will have been completely destroyed. That will be the reality of your daily life after the forthcoming polar reversal. And it is in this scenario you will have to try to survive.
You have been warned. Your science and your monkey-god and your atheist-homosexuals will NOT save. Only by receiving the healing blessing upon your forehead of WE, Sara-Lara-Ted-jesus-christ, can you possibly avoid catastrophe!
Fictitious 'Jesus Christ' is itself a poisonous serpent you yourselves - clergymen, Pharisees, and secret societies - created a long time ago, more precisely 2000 and a few years ago and that is the most hideous lie existent on this Planet called Earth and only true and real cause of all evil existent on this planet. You yourselves and other Pharisees created this fairy-tale and fictitious character called by the ones deceived by you as 'Jesus Christ' and you are the main personages of the horror story: the bloodthirsty wolves hidden behind the bushes of your lies! To all of you who wear cassocks and to all those who handles a crosier and wears tiaras I give you my wise whip of despise and my sword of knowledge, understand you the metaphors: With this whip, made of wise words, I do whip you and with the sword of knowledge I firstly tread on the serpents bodies then I cut off the heads of the serpents itself with it. May my words of knowledge be echoed throughout all existent Universes and may it be heard by all humankind of Earth and by all human beings in all Universes! So be it!
Don't be sucked in by the lies!
YEHOSHUA-BEN-PANDERA (AKA: JESUS CHRIST) - THE ACCURSED ONE OF GOD AND THE MONKEY-CHRIST, MONKEY-GOD AND SUPERSTAR OF THE RAVENOUS HYENAS IN A SHEEP'S CLOTHING
The tricks, ruses and terrorism of Jesus H(ell's) Christ - Satan's soul mate
"If a man has committed a sin deserving of death, and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree,his body shall not remain overnight on the tree, but you shall surely bury him that day, so that you do not defile the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance; for he who is hanged is accursed of God" (De 21:22 -23) I.e.: A MONKEY CHRIST IS HANGING ON THE CROSS!
This hashishan prophet clown spammed this on my blog too. Check out his blog, hes definitely a crazy religious freak.
By the way, nice points about nothingness :)
Mom, I TOLD you! Never contact me here!
Anyway, I found this site as the source of the Polar stuff:
http://survive2012.com/geryl1.php
The monkey-horde thing is from chapter (LXVII) of the Yuddhakanda--the monkeys are fighting for Rama. I think they are the good guys.
And Ted Jesus Christ is here:

on our own site.
Here is a page where you can find the Jesus is Satan stuff:

It's looking a lot like Gene Ray.
I hate to mess up your joke. It's just that I get a lot of this in my inbox. None of them are ever original. They always just steal other people's work--that is, except Gene Ray. Maybe you should look at his stuff. It's at timecube.com
The last site is THE site to see, which makes me wonder if I have an auditioner here?
Oh Pleeese Alleee, can I have this? I want it! Oh! oh! I just don't know where to begin! Do I do a parody? Do I compare its value to a beaker full of weasel piss? Do I explode the bullcrap conclusions regarding the polar reversal? I'm so excited! So many possibilities! Or maybe, I could just acknowledge that there are too many stupid people in the human race to make it worth bothering and just have a nice dish of ice cream.
As the Divine One, I shall allow this "breakerslion" to have at this Sara in any way he sees fit, as he is clearly a superior being.
Hey, thanks Alleee. I did not see this before. I am working on it. Old "HP" leads an interesting life and a curious chase through cyberspace. Just to give you a taste, I am just now exploring the possibility that HP is also "Macropenis", who posted on "Frank Discussions" Nov-Dec 2004, then disappeared. I'm also looking at "her" collective writings to assess the probability that "she" is more than one person. Indications lead in that direction, but I want to quantify the likelihood.
