Sermon #1 - text

[Just a simple little post from username 'Bluemarine', but it's posted for everyone to see and the option to reply in any format you like is there, should you feel like it. Somebody sure has the burning desire to ask everyone a question (or piss off as many people as they can, depending).]

How many of you believe in an afterlife? Or...What I should ask is; how many of you understand that you're slaves to fate and destiny, no matter how unhappy yours might be?

You're welcome to try and change my mind on that front, if you think you have the intellect.

Not to this degree, you're absolutely correct. My world seems painfully mundane against everyone else's, thus far; it's not an improvement, so much as a change of circumstances and thus perspective. That's still a blessing however, and so I'll take it as such.

The man I knew was indeed the most remarkable man to ever exist, however. I can say that with confidence, even knowing how infinite possibility is. As for the others, I only know third-hand of them, so I wouldn't be the expert to ask. All I can confirm is that they were humanoid, but different entirely. Different to my friend, even; he was made immortal through their technology, but wasn't one of them. So my research has told me, at any rate. But now you have me regretting not researching them more, and being born too late to have met one in person, so that I could know of their lost culture, their ways, their powers and weaknesses compared to humanity. An entire species, extinct...It makes me sad that so few know of them.

had a good laugh at Jojos being mundane thanks

Then I'm glad you aren't facing something that is worse, at the very least. And I hope a path of return opens to us soon so that you can find the answers you're looking for. Is much known about them at all? In the absence of any concrete material I find legends are often a good place to start, if you know of any. Often there is a thread of truth that can be unraveled from them.
