I am a man of convictions, I form beliefs based on logic.

I do not state things as fact, I state things as my beliefs.
Firm, unchangeable beliefs that are always right and that don't need justification, ever. Syn.: Facts.
History repeats itself, I found the patterns in history and can clearly see where it's headed. None of my theories or predictions have been proven wrong, as I continue to grow as a person everyday.
To clarify the tidal wave prediction; everyone will experience ego death at some point.
Yeah, but you promised Micheal Bay explosions all along the East Coast. How can Micheal Bay explosions be love?
That was my major transition point. If you fail to consciously kill your ego while you're alive, nature will kill it for you when you die. You have the choice to defy logic, to defy death and take control of your destiny, to live forever. If everyone voluntarily stopped being 'human,' stopped hating, stopped judging, stopped doubting and destroying, only loved, we would find heaven on earth.
Are you a closet bronnie?
The fact that you think your thoughts have an effect on reality = pure ego trippin.
Of course thoughts directly effect reality. When you have a thought, you have a choice of manifesting that thought into reality or not. Even if you choose not to, that thought still occupied your consciousness.
I own one of these:
http://www.emotiv.com/store/sdk/bci/research-edition-sdk/Literally, an EEG that allows me to interface with my computer or Arduino device. Literally, something that allows me to change the state of something in the real-world with a thought. Are you telling me I should go buy a cape?
/cue dank half-assedly reading the product description and failing to comprehend what it's for, thus adding another bad argument to his arsenal.
The fact that you think you're smarter than everyone else and trying to enlighten people = pure ego trippin.
Nobody is smarter than anybody. We are all made equal.
You claim to have a 150 IQ. The averaged norm is 100, by design. So everyone has the exact same capabilities as everyone, but you're a special little snowflake?
I believe I'm more consciously aware than the average human, at this time.
Yup, snowflake it is then.
Awareness is not static, you can increase your awareness by learning, by experiencing, by forming beliefs based on what you experience.
Yeah, but I don't claim to be a messiah every time I read something while taking a crap.
I believe I found the answer to eternal happiness, love.
... and begging for cash on a random forum.
Just as a gambling addict knows and expects that the one armed bandit will pay out this time you pull the lever, you now expect your fantasy of a belief system to take care of everything for you.
Implementing love into my life gave me true happiness and total control over my life for the first time.
Except that you relinquish that control to your, erm, faith. "I don't have to work for my concert, I dreamt it would happen, so it will happen".
I see it in those around me, as well. All you have to do is stop dwelling on problems, and believe that everything will work out for the best, even if it doesn't meet your expectations. Thinking positively goes a long way.
But it doesn't replace actually being worth the oxygen you scarf down by applying yourself to something.
So yes, I found the answer to eternal happiness [...]
Until you run out of cash, can't feed yourself, realise that you can't stop eating in real life, and then start to beg for more cash to those who are cursed with you in their lives. I feel for your parents, I really do. Your mom really should have been more into blowjobs though, maybe you could have been prevented.
[...] and no, I'm not afraid of judgement or rebuttal.
My rapist-o-meter just kicked up another couple of notches. What happens when your soulmate rejects you as the husk of a human being you are? Refuse to acknowledge her rebuttal? Force her to love you?
I know it's true because it worked for me, I won't let the doubt of others divide me from my beliefs and life experiences. Knowledge is nothing to horde.
"I think it so therefor its a fact" = pure ego trippin.
Your thoughts exist in some reality, so yes, it's real. Thoughts are alternate realities you connect to. Whatever you believe creates your reality. You see what you see because you believe you see it. You can see more than what appears to be if you believe you can. If you believe I'm a bad person, in your reality, I'm a bad person. It doesn't mean I'm a bad person in anyone else's reality.
Our reality is a man-made society based on control and fear. Clearly we are not in a state of peace, heaven.
Basic human behaviour, which can be both good or bad. You're just adding the subtext about it being a bad thing because so far in your life everything has been hostile to you, and since you can't ever put the actual effort into something to a point of completion, you don't know the feeling of accomplishment.
You want a bland existence of nothing but good things, but ask yourself, without the bad, how do you know the good is actually good?
I learned humans must stop eating in order to find heaven, to end the cycle of death. I continued to eat after a small break because the world is still engulfed with negativity.
So your argument is that while there is any negativity left, nothing good can happen? Pathetic.
This is just cognitive dissonance on an epic scale where you rationalise your way through the acknowledgement of the obvious failure of your delusions of grandeur.
When all humans become aware at this knowledge, we can act as one and stop destroying ourselves in a conscious effort to unite the world.
If you only answer a single thing here, and no doubt you will only do so by going on another stoner tangent, what if I don't want in your happy happy fun time world? Will you kill me?
Is it not worth a try? To not kill, doubt or hate, for one day, together? Love is infinite energy, when someone loves you, it increases your sense of happiness, which you then send love back with, creating an exponential growing cycle of energy, love.
I usually can go through a day without killing. I mean, it's a drag trying to find new places to stash the bodies. I'm lazy like that.
Hate? If I avoid the BCT forums I guess that's possible.
Doubt? You have got to be kidding me. Doubt is the greatest thing in the world. It forces you to evaluate things, then change if you realise that you're doing something wrong. To stop doubting anything means we become nothing more than fungus, with no capacity of critical thought. In essence, you wish for something like the plot of the movie Serenity, where the humans of the colony just lie down and die.
How could my ego delude me to believing in all this when the ego's primary function is to doubt everything?
Because you're using ego wrong, and because in fact your ego is out of control and you believe to your core that you found the answers to everything.
We all know everything, we all share an omniscient consciousness because there's only one consciousness to experience.
Because of Google? Oh, wait, right, we all share a hive-mind, except we don't.
When you break down the ego, you stop doubting and start convicting beliefs of your own.
So doubt is the tool you use to realise that doubt is a bad thing? Doubt-ception.
Talking conveys logic, just like math.
Except when you're doing it wrong. Yes, you can also do bad math.
Logic brings isolated cultures to the same conclusion regarding our spiritual existence.
Because as a species we all fear the great unknown after death, therefore religion sprung up pretty much everywhere. Problem is, the conclusion was not the same, and I'm not talking protestants versus reformists. There are as many cults as there are regions. Oops.
Keep in mind, the ego is used to doubt and divide.
Aww, you say that like it's a bad thing...
Even if I say something like unicorns are real, it's still true, it's still thinking with my consciousness, because in some reality, unicorns are real.

Your legacy judeochristian beliefs are showing here...
Your entire post restates your opinion of me. "Your words are... Your ego is... The fact that you think..etc," these are all judgments, reinstatements of what you believe I believe. How can you speak on behalf of others if you're not them?
And yet you don't? Sorry, wait, and yet an asshat on the BCT forums doesn't?
