I've seen a lot of crazy stuff on the internet, but this Gene Ray should be given a medal (or four?).
Nature's harmonic simultanious 4-day time cube
quote:
Humans exist as CUBICS, not entities, for the 4 corner stages of rotating human metamorphosis do not occur at the same time for the individual - except for family Cube. You are educated stupid, indoctrinated evil, and can't even acknowledge that a mother
and baby are the same age - on opposite corners of a Cubic Creation Principle - for Truth in Opposites contradict a god entity. Evil educators suppress Cubic Creation and preach evil singularity to stupid students - depossessing students of ratiocinate mind. WORD students serve Nature best if dead.
This goes on, and on, and on... The word "evil" is found 151 times, "stupid" 104 times, etc. In short, if you dont beleive in his idea, you're stupid and evil, and part of a conspiracy which, for some reason, includes MTV's Tom Green.
quote:
My wisdom so antiquates known knowledge, that a psychiatrist examining my behavior, eccentric by his academic single corner knowledge, knows no course other than to judge me schizoprenic.
Maybe I should have posted this in "Humour" but this guy is dead serious and probably in need of some professional help.
What are your thoughts on this? Is this crazier than the everage woo-woo stuff many people believe in? Like, say, religion?
Sorry, I dont have any insightful analysis to offer... It sure made my friday :)

Since this guy has been admittedly diagnosed with schizophrenia, he does not fall under the woo woo label, which is generally reserved for people that should know better but don't.
Also, even though religion exhibits some symptoms that could be compared to schizophenia, it is not the same, as schizophrenia can be controlled with medication.
Basically, I would say this is much more tragic than funny. I am very grateful not to be schizophrenic as it's not a pleasant disease by any means. |

| Unfortunately, we don't have a woo-woo folder. We do have a Pseudoscience, folder, however. I'm kicking this over there. After all, the guy's got "unrefutable proof" of what he says. |

Wow!
But I have a nagging feeling I've seen similar, some time back. Perhaps he's doing an encore? Dunno.
The first word that comes to mind is: 'spoof'. But if not a spoof, I'd like the addy of his dealer. Or maybe not!

| If I had to guess, I would say it was a hoax. Doesn't seem quite 'real' enough. |

| The 4-day time cube crap is the best humor I've read in a long time. The guy seems serious, but he's been smoking some good stuff I bet. |

I've seen links to this site before, it was fairly popular a few years ago. My guess would be that this guy is serious, judging from this interview with the alleged Gene Ray himself: http://www.great-debate.com/tv.htm
An amusing parody made with a random text generator can be found at http://www.elsewhere.org/timecube/
As for this being crazier than other woowoo stuff people believe in? I don't know, i wouldn't consider it crazier than the notion that, say, 2000 years ago some guy died so you could live without sin and now you can eat his body in the form of a cookie. |
Miss Tick sniffed. 'You could say this piece of advice is pricesless', she said. 'Are you listening?'
'Yes' said Tiffany.
'Good now...If you trust in yourself.."
'Yes..?'
'..and believe in your dreams...'
'yes?'
'...and follow your star..' Miss Tick went on.
'Yes?'
