Quote:If I believe I am instructed to eat some food I believe someone must be issuing that instruction. Perhaps you mean to refer to my desire to eat food. That is a favouring of my eating food and it requires a mind to exist, doesn't it? Do you think desires can exist outside of minds?
But then why do you desire to eat food? This desire could be a hallucination.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
