I can understand the psychology concept of a self-fulfilling prophecy... but I don't that it can be used to control others like that. tongue.gif

The whole concept is ridiculous, and based on the fact that if every time you do something, you expect outcome A, it will happen at least one and you'll think it's fortuitous.

There's a great quote from a scientist on the subject. He said to his friend: "Guess what? On the way home tonight I saw a car with a liscence plate of AMW389! Of all the liscence plates in the state, what is the chance of me seeing that particular one?!?"

The point is, the occurrences where such a law does not work are obscured by the few memorable times it does, causing you to believe in it.

This very deep question has a very deep answer.

On the leaves of the tree, there is a meaning to everything. But in the roots of that same tree, there isn't.

This one of those topics, if I could sit down with you, for about 30-60min hours, I could explain it all in full and complete detail. But the funny thing is, that's just not happening.

Is that why starving children try their hardest to survive and end up dieing in a slow and horrible way?

If your survival/death depends only on you, you can change it with moral strength. But if your head gets chopped off your moral power will not help you.

If it depends on you, your thoughts can change whatever you want to change.

In the starving children case, maybe they could not change their fate becawse it was the "chopped off head" situation - it didn't fully depend on them.

Right now, i have completely no reason to live, and i mean it because if i would one day just dissapear, no one would really miss me, and some ppl would be even happy..

I was thinking about a suicide a couple of times when life was really misserable for me, but then i thought what if there is no life or sth after death? Then it would really suck to just stop existing. So now here i am just trying to waste my time 'till I die, because there's really not much anything better i can do..

Well maybe there would be a reason to live if i had a GF or sth rolleyes.gif , but at my place, that's almost impossible if u are not a Jock, who beats up someone for looking at him, and lives by stealing stuff from other ppl, (then beating them up to death anyway) when he has ~20 guys standing behind him, just to buy some beer..

So yeah, pretty much I don't have a reason to live.. Yay for everyone who does.

I will try to help you. First let me just tell you that suicide is not the answer. You need to ask yourself a couple of questions; what do you think suicide will get you? What happens when you die? Until you can answer those two questions you can't afford to kill yourself. I can tell you what happens, but it is up to you if you want to believe it or not. I will tell you that in your heart you know that this life is not all there is, you know that if you kill yourself there will be something afterwards. Many people deny that and try to claim that once they are dead they are like a dog and just cease to exist, but deep down they know that is not true.

Why is suicide so appealing to you? I will tell you that most people say it is because they don't like their life, they are unhappy and they feel that death will bring relief from that. They think it will be peaceful and restful. The problem is that death will not give you those things. If a person commits suicide all they will do is manage to give themselves more problems. Even the old problems won't go away. You would remain you after death, meaning that you mentally would be the same person. You would remember your parents. Now you may not like them now, but once dead you would be haunted by questions. Were they hurt that you killed yourself? Did they care at all that you killed yourself? Etc... The same goes for all the people you know. Would the world care that you were gone? If you had not killed yourself would you have been happy in a few years? Would you have ever found someone who loved you and whom you loved? The questions would haunt you for all of eternity.

But that is not the worst part, the worst part is that you would be separated from God's love. Let me give you the basics. You said you grew up Catholic but you don't understand, okay then just look at this.

We have all done wrong things, called sins. God is holy and demands death for anyone who sins.

This Law is a primary tool for the Soul to master physical life on the Earth plane. It ensures that all conditions and situations that the Soul desires for eventually mastering material reality are drawn to the attention of the human intellect by virtue of the oneness of universe energy.

The Law of Attraction is not understood by a five-sensory intellect unintegrated by the wisdom of the Soul, and this has been reflected in shortcomings in the principles, policies and practices of human institutions such as government, slowing the evolution of human consciousness and achievement.

Experiences perceived as "bad" by the survival-focused intellect are viewed by the multi-dimensional Soul Mind as "lessons to be learned". While the unintegrated intellect believes humans are "victims" of negative situations in the material world, the Soul knows that humans are co-creators of material reality and negative situations fuel positive solutions.

Human government attempts to "rescue" those who, at the Soul level of awareness, understand the negative-positive lessons of worldly existence under Cosmic Laws and would choose not to be interfered with. A stubborn intellect may require exceptionally negative and repeated lessons to break onto positive levels to overcome self-defeat. This has been witnessed particularly in "miraculous" recoveries from some physical disorders.

It's a major lesson to understand that putting a negative, rather than a positive interpretation on any situation, causes disorders in the physical body. Just as a blood clot can block the flow of the vital fluid and cause a heart attack, so can a blockage of negative thought cause disorder in muscles, tissues, and cells. Energy needs to flow freely. Whether a situation is personal, local, regional, national, worldwide or extraterrestrial, negative interpretation can cause a physical disruption of energy in some way.

Such is the Law of Attraction to the power of mind energy. A decision to let go of negativity and "let God" is a handy release valve until one accepts personal responsibility for the co-creating of conditions, and knows that in the long term, "every experience is positive".

What is true of the microcosm, is true of the macrocosm. Negative interpretation of any event can cause physical disorders from personal to planetary, and beyond. Potency of the Law of Attraction throughout the universe energy is such that all life is affected.

An unintegrated intellect will attract repeated lessons until it understands that the material brain is to integrate the universal mind of the Soul for an optimum human experience. It's the Law.

Mastering the power of co-creating material reality for positive ends means consciously utilizing the Soul Mind to influence matter, and the Law produces sometimes harsh lessons needed to accomplish the feat. Souls that experience impairment or loss of the human body, for example, have attracted to the human intellect the lesson of overcoming such conditions with what is simply termed "mind over matter". It may require more than one lifetime, but the power to influence all material things, even Earth changes and weather conditions, has always been
available.

By the Law of Attraction, the human intellect eventually listens to the wisdom of the Soul and, hence, everything from physical wellness and abundance, to planetary harmony and Heaven on Earth is mastered.

The bottom line is, Cosmic Law is the supreme law of the universe, and a government absent of this Soul wisdom attracts lessons as evidenced here by the advancement of an AUTHENTIC CONSTITUTION in harmony with the natural Cosmic Laws of the universe, and producing High Moral Values and Democratic Ideals.

God predicts vast reforms everywhere in the wonderful utopian era He says will soon break out on this earth.

Can you imagine it? A world of great strides in solving the most crucial problems facing mankind.

Today—the greatest and most awesome problem of all is the population explosion. Growing populations in all nations are rapidly outstripping the ability of the world to sustain them.

And the areas of the greatest rise in population are the underdeveloped parts of the world—the “have-not” nations of poverty, illiteracy, disease and superstition. Remember, not more than 10 percent of the earth’s surface is tillable, or arable, land. And now the latest UN figures indicate the world will double in population by a.d. 2013.

The daily, ominous pressure of people is one of the truly incomprehensible problems today.

But God has the solution, and how simple it is. Simply make most of the earth cultivatable. Reduce the bare, snow-swept and craggy mountains, raise up some of the deep, arid desert valleys, change the world weather patterns. Make all the deserts green and fertile. Open up huge slices of the earth, like the Kalahari Desert, the Lake Chad basin and the Sahara in Africa, the Gobi Desert in Asia, and the great American deserts. Make green and verdant the vast wastes of Mongolia, Siberia, Saudi Arabia and many of the Western states in the U.S.

Thaw out the deep ice packs and snowdrifts, the permafrost and tundra from the vast, almost limitless expanses of Antarctica, North America, Greenland, Northern Europe and Siberia. Make level the awesome Pamir Knot, the huge giants of the Himalayas, the Atlas, Taurus, Pyrenees, Rockies, Sierras and Hindu Kush—level the immense sweep of the Andes, and all the other forbidding, towering, virtually uninhabitable mountains of earth.

Then, provide good, gentle rainfall, in right balance, just at the right season.

And what happens?

Multiple millions of acres of unbelievably fertile, productive, wonderful farmland suddenly become available—just waiting to be discovered, and pioneered.

Impossible?

In the hands of man—certainly.

But look what God promises. Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the [Eternal], and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

“Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt make the hills as chaff. Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in the [Eternal], and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.

“When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the [Eternal] will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers in high places, and fountains [artesian wells] in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.

“I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the craptah [acacia] tree, and the myrtle and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree [cypress] together: That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the [Eternal] hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.” (Isaiah 41:14-20).

Revelation 6:8: “And I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him sitting on it was Death, and Hell followed with him. And authority was given to them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword and with hunger and with death and by the beasts of the earth.”
Christ said, in Matthew 24:7, that pestilence—disease—would be a sign of His Return and of the end of the age. Mankind is indeed very near the end of its 6,000-year rebellion against God!
Medical science once thought that it could control and conquer disease. But new diseases are emerging, and older ones, like tuberculosis, are rapidly mutating into antibiotic-resistant forms. Medicine is quickly losing its main weapon in the war against disease. Hardly a week passes without reports of new disease outbreaks somewhere in the world. The danger is greatest in underdeveloped nations, where poor sanitation, war, overcrowding, and poverty spawn epidemics. Cholera, dysentery, and malaria are recent examples,
Penicillin and the more powerful drug Vancomycin once easily controlled the staphylococcus bacteria. But staph has now transformed into a super germ with a 30 percent resistance to penicillin and 10 percent resistant to Vancomycin. Thousands are now dying from incurable hospital-acquired staph infections.

I do like to think that there is something after death, because that would be the only reason to suffer here, thinking that sth better will be later, especialy with so many phenomenons like EVP, or OBE, which kinda proves, that there is something more than just physical body, but i can't be 100% sure...


And thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it.

The bubonic plague was used in a belief religion called Christianity that their god was angry at them. And the bubonic plague only worked on humans, but possibly when you were in kindergardern, the doctors probably injected you the virus that were killed off by your blood cells or something.

The bird flu, then might as well hate the seagles and pigeons, they came here from europe. Eagles won't do any bird flu.

you cant realy say that there is a reason to live.. because well we all have different reasons, like one of u siad u live for girls, i live for girls and starcraft -- notice the difference there? but becuase this is a serious forum.. i think that if there WAS a reason that ALL of us are living, excluding the individual - which i dont like to do - it would be because we are here to experience. When you die the only thing u can take with u is your experience, the things that you saw and did and accompished during your life - which all pertain to what you personally belive. for example bill gates will look at his accomplishments differently than Hue Heffner (however u spell his name) because they have different belifs. its all bout what u leave when u go, and what u take (memories/experience) when u go. so just enjoy the ride, let ur experiences be awesome. .. ...
