Zierro Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Existence is something I think about a lot. I have those moments where I can't even comprehend how I'm here and how I can move my fingers around without even being fully aware of it most of the time.

fastortoise Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I think about how it would feel to synthetically create life. I imagine the newspaper headlines, with my humble interviews quoting me saying "Hey, I wasn't the first to create life, you know." I think of the religious nuts that would form a cult about me, treating me as a god. The controversy that would abolish of every religion. There's just something about knowing how life works that I want to understand. I want this era, the one which I live in, to be the era where biologists fully understand life. The era which, much like physics and math, biologists can finally set the rules and equations for life. I want to unravel the notion of life so much that it loses all it's mystery. I want to be the first to create a "life toolkit" which can be given to the masses, much like how Apple has an application making program, but instead let people engineer lifeforms. I can go on and on with this stuff :oops: Then artificially create 150 pokemon and manufacture pokeballs to distribute to my children and their friends so they can live dreams I missed out on because of lazy geneticists.

Omar Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 An application has no feelings, life forms do. I'm willing to bet hundreds of sick [bleep]s would torture their creations. Pokémons have no rights though, battle them all you want. :thumbup: Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you. You want everything that's--falls off garbage can Camera guy: Whoa, haha, are you okay dude? Matt: You want anything funny that happens, don't you? Camera guy: still laughing Matt: You want the funny shit that happens here and there, you think it comes out of your [bleep]ing [wagon] pushes garbage can down, don't you? You think it's funny? It comes out of here! running towards Camera guy Camera guy: runs away still laughing Matt: You think the funny comes out of your mother[bleep]ing creativity?

Then the people who created us would know since they created us, I think. Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you.

Zierro Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 It was a hypothetical question. What I mean is that, in our eyes, we might think we're some sort of non-replicable divine beings, but that wouldn't be so when it came to our makers. If we did have creators they'd probably see us as something similar to a computer program. In other words, it's possible for us to be applications with feelings. I don't think we can crack the mystery of life, nor do I want us to. But I don't doubt the possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
