The human

To be in the moment for most people is very difficult as the ego is so curious it can't help ask "what just happened?" "what is going to happen?" Those are both questions that power and provoke the majority of noisy, confusing, pointless human thought.

 

This whole forum is pointless, my life is pointless, yours is too. The only thing that gives ANYTHING meaning is your attention.

 

i rest my case.

 

I don't get that last post steelah?

 

i just don't see any point going "tit for tat". there are no right or wrongs. i expressed how i felt, and now i feel completely free to move on to something else. enjoying life "moment to moment". simple really.

 

maybey we're all just part of an expiriment started by aliens....or were ancestors of little bacteria that along the lines had a retarded child and so on until we reach retarded fish frogs that have the abilty to go on land and mate with a chipmunk or something and then it just goes on and on until we got here

 

we are all paying attention to this forum one way or another

 

more precisely, we are paying attention to some "degree" or another (bordering on the extreme in some cases from the posting stats).

 

it can be a very entertaining forum, at times.

 

To the OP: you may want to read The Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence by Carl Sagan. Interesting ideas presented in it.
