Our minds adrift
May 27, 2018 at 8:38 pm
Our thoughts are truly the only things private to us.
No one can intrude. Our honest thoughts have to be personally shared.
What happens when we lose touch with our thoughts?
I personally cannot imagine such a tragedy.
Losing one's self to oblivion due to the mind's failure seems dark.
How would you personally handle losing your mind to Alzheimer's?

Alas, there is no "handling" dementia. You have to depend on others to do that for you.

I might've lost my mind, my eyesight, my hearing, my memory, but dammit, I've still got my driver's license!

I'm hoping that I have the faculty to do what is necessary before I lose my faculty to do what is necessary,
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Guys, a quick question. You know how when you're old and lost a lot of your faculties and then you die peacefully in a nursing home.
When you go to heaven? Are you still old and frail? At what stage of your life (memories) does God restore your consciousness to?
What if I shit my pants a lot when I'm 93 and cark it? Who's going to clean it up in heaven? Which lucky bastard made it into heaven and their job is to clean shit up?
Nothing makes sense, does it?... None of it.. These are the hard questions that theists don't like to acknowledge... The little details.
No theists has ever thought about the little details because they're too busy with the mental gymnastics over the big ticket items!
No God, No fear.
