No I wrote it this morning, plus if I had written it previously, there wouldn't have been enough server room on this website.

Nope.

I'm just a non-believer in God, religion and philosophies and hate the term Atheist too. Tongue

I just get on with my life.

I didn't quote it for truth, I just wanted to admire that much effort put into a post.

You didn't quote it for yourself?  That's odd...

Oh, my book idea doesn't imply deism. By God I meant the entire universe. By God I did NOT mean omnipotence, supernatural energy, 'souls', 'right/good or wrong/evil', or anything religious. I was using the term God as loosely as possible. It was the only thing I could think of to refer to the totality of universal, subjective self-awareness and consciousness.

The premise of your book reminds me of part of an essay I've written.

Ooh, Pigbag's bassist is also the bassist from The Pop Group, no wonder I thought both bands had excellent bass work.

I'm going to write an existential piece at some time, it's just a matter of motivation and opportunity.

Yo, Dustin.  I was sad and lonesome like you once:

Swirling archangels crash and burn; trying to fly,
The lesser angels are in laughter, cherubs smile.
Defenceless against the evil thoughts of man,
All heavenly beings will soon crash and burn too;
To perish.  Angels, Seraphs and Cherubs, all spirits.
Man thinks not of green, but of crimson and black.

Blood red.
Dark, purile.  Dripping.
Tap.
Screams of pain.
Tap.
Screams of anger.
Tap.
Cries of laughter.
Tap.
They laugh at life;
They laugh at death.
A nefarious fiend is taking over.

Sliding...
Angels disappear into nothingness.
The never ending ramp of life, broken.
Nothing to arrive at except nothingness.
Bleak.  Empty.  Black.
A Spatial abyss.

All known light now fades.
Walls crumble, silence arrives.

Silence arrives abruptly.

God itself is now disturbed; it  feels uneasy.
It is sinking.  Its  empire collapsing around it.

Not dying, but metamorphosizing.
The once sexless, neutral personification.

Turning male, turning evil.  Eyes now glowing.
Piercing red eyes of death, focusing on one and all.
He is now completing his metamorphosis.

Limbo is no longer.
Heaven is no longer.
Even hell has gone.

This is far more evil than satan ever was.
Satan enjoyed his evil lifeforms.
The new personification of evil wants death.

He wants no living, he just wants our hearts to stop.
He won't even live long himself, he is not immortal.

He is as  mortal as we all were.
He just had the means to destroy us.
All of us.  Himself included.

Goodbye Earth.  Goodbye Life.

Geck0 - 20th March 2005.

I've been writing one, small pieces at a time. It's a tad bit more surreal than straight up existentialism... Kind of like Rimbaud's A Season In Hell.

I thought I was an existentialist, but after further investigation I decided I wasn't.  Regardless, it's still a pretty interesting philosophy, and Nietzsche is one of my favorite writers in both content and style.

I have ideas in my head too.  I want to mix in Vonnegutisms with science fiction, espionage and a huge dollop of existentialism and potential post-apocalypticism and dystopianism.

I'm obviously not an Existentialist as I don't follow Philosophies.  I do like a lot of the idea behind it though.  I'm still just being me though.

I have ideas in my head, but they're not for books.  They're for my head and to be spurted out at random times while hanging out with friends.

That'd be weird.

Dollops of Jon's head dropping on the floor playing Japavant and Zeuhl tunes...

I'm not happy.

I made a cup of tea and then realised my milk had gone off.

I'll have to forego it now until I can pop down the shop.

Grrr.

Water it is then.

To be honest, I hate categorising myself. Call me an existentialist and I'll retort with absurdism. Call me a nihilist and I'll retort with solipsism.
