For sure that "Absence of evidence IS evidence of absence.", which is quite useful in many situations, such as these: Absence of evidence for... ...fairies, trolls, and ghosts... ...Weapons of mass destruction in Irak... ...Bigfeets.. Yetties. ...Aliens... ...God's...Plural ...Jesus.. ...Microsoft is a golden god in India.... ...Miracle healings... ...Credentials... ...That Bush is a cyborg ...CO2 from machines causing global warming... ...UFO space ships... ...Telepaty, ESP, and telekinesis... ...Star Wars is the greatest movie of all time... ...Linux stealing code from SCO corporation... ...Bermuda Triangle... ...LSD... One source of this confusion may be that "evidence" is a near synonym to both "proof" and "sign/indication" which are two different concepts. Using these words instead gives the two following correct sentences: Absence of sign/indication is a sign/indication of absence. Evidence of proof is not proof.. \
LSD is a structure, a code, an equation. Its component parts are found in the air you breathe, the food you eat, the people you talk to (LSD resides in Conti's brain, surrounded by little attack dogs, drooling with hunger). When these common components are arranged in a certain order, hooked together like a jigsaw puzzle, they become a message. The message says: "Open your eyes. Look around you. Wake up." The cold monster says that this message can't be spoken. Only ineffective communications are allowed, only those that won't threaten the age old system, the rotting bars of the ancient cell, the one phrase that is repeated over and over through the loudspeakers of the world: "Don't look, don't wonder, keep on believing what we say." LSD is heat, a kiss of hot energy saved on a tiny piece of paper ready to be released into the frozen pathways of the nervous system and explode into visions, memory, myth and that understanding that goes beyond the dry words (food for mice) that hide in libraries and instead finds its way to the roots of your being, altering forever what you once thought was unquestionable, beyond doubt. Such a kiss is a gift. A gathering of beings who have received this gift with open arms form a boiling pot, a true cauldron of creative energy, ready to look beyond the given and touch reality with prodding fingers, no longer afraid to poke holes in its surface. And some who receive this gift are not content with being the ground for this flow of electricity, coming down from unknowable heights. "If I am kissed, I must kiss back. I must give back what I've been given. What I now know, I cannot keep to myself." And so the gift, the forbidden structure, the equation that refuses to simply sit there and wait for something to happen, is spread from hand to hand, mouth to mouth; a silent network of light slowly crawling across the world. There are millions who have been touched, and millions who are just waiting. Waiting for that generous mind who won't be content with being open but who will turn around and open other minds in return. I took the stone (that same one that others had searched for) and flew with it, traveled into the land where bodies become conduits, minds become circuits and to love is to give endlessly, no matter what the price. The monkeys (the ones that sit on benches and the ones who elect them) are primates and they are bound to bite the hand that feeds them.
think about that the next time you ride your bike.. the front wheel is trying to eat the back.. oh noez..
understanding and accepting acid, you gotta try it. i mean if you're questioning its existence cos you can't find it then that's a bit of a rut i gotta admit but drag yourself to any sound tribe or shpongle concert and you're bound to find it. but if that doesn't prove it's 'existence' to you still, take a couple doses. just a couple though cos my first time i took around 6, it was beautiful but definitely a little too overpowering. trust me, feeling is believing, a little like solipsism that until you know it you won't believe it. and trust me you'll be hooked if you truly let yourself go but until then there will always be people putting down the drug, and the only ones who know it's true significance and how harmless it really is are the ones who experiment with it. and i'm not talking just wookies, you have scientists dabbling in this stuff to and loving every observation of it
How do they put down something thats not real? They dont know what it is right? I mean you keep giving me these explanations.. Of what you feel >> How can I believe you.. What about the experience you keep talking about.. Seem to me they are not downing the drug but the experience.. The imagination part.. They want you to believe in their imaginations.... This is not right. You want me to believe you imagination too.. I cant see for myself?? I wonder why we all believe its LSD.. Why since there have been many other psychedelic drugs before the illusion of LSD... For 1000's of years man has been doing other drugs.. So whats the Desired Hallucination?? What if you have seen everything you can and you cant see no more.... The PEAK has already been achieved your conscious mind is just not aware of it.. Are you 100% sure you took L;S;D? think... breathe, get back to me..
Nobody said there was a desired hallucination, or that the effect is an hallucination. Who is "they" you speak of and what do they matter in the case of what I put in my mouth? I would say they don't and people do drugs because it is a part of nature, it is our will to do these things, and for someone to will me not to means that they are dreaming and I am awake so therefore fuck em. Who is you that anyone should have to prove it to you or anyone else for that matter? If I drop a dose and nobody sees it did it really happen? Oh Gosh!
