CK, I tend to think of Kaballah as a metaphor, and a way of looking at things.  It's simply another frame to hang your reality on.

As old uncle Al would say, "use it.  see if it works.  then judge."

What's the difference between kaballah and any other system of game rules?  Nothing.  So there's no reason to reject it out of hand.

That shit aint Kaballah.

Maybe not to the insider but to the outsider it's exactly what the kaballa is (that and what the newspapers say)

See my comment about Evangelicals.


Or the difference between Wahabi and Sufi.

AFK

While I'm sure there are some vapid, empty human shells who will latch on to Kaballah because of Madonna (right after they adopt an African baby) I tend to think many can see it for what it is.  An attention getting device.  Much with Mr. Cruise and Scientology.  I have no doubt they have some sincerity in their beliefs but I am immediately suspicious of anyone who flaunts their religion the way they do in the public arena.  
Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

LMNO

Yup.

It's just another esoteric tool for trying to break Universe down into understandable pieces.

Like I Ching.

Over here the tabloids realy went apeshit with it. Prolly some C of E agenda "OMG they're promoting a belief system that actually works! This could fuck us right up"

By the time they were done describing kaballa even I was fkin terrified of it. A brainwashing cult that makes you donate all your money and carry out holy executions and stuff. They made it sound almost as bad as fundie christinsanity

Sir Comrade Kenan

You can probably disregard all of this.

As it turns out, there are things that can't be seen that are true.

I don't know what to believe anymore... Cool! Nihilism!

Except not. Matter breaks down, something IS eternal, though I haven't the slightest as to what it is, and well, thats about it.

CK,

Life's a meaningless joke? That sucks.



Edit: At least it's funny.
Well, I just said it so FUCKING LISTEN OR ILL KEEP SHOUTING UNTIL YOUR BRAINS BECOME FLUID AND POUR OUT YOUR EARS.

sometimes it good to look at yourself with fresh eyes forgetting what you think you know
most people say they do that, but most people dont cause, as in my case, a lot of the time you don't like what you see
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.

hey how did you come to that conclusion? i'm really interested..

i found something similar when i discovered that there are even false things that are true (srsly) so paradoxes are real (really too bad hypocrisy doesn't *need* justification, or else you'd have one right there) but that was some mathematical proof (yea i know i keep going on about that, but it blew my mind oK?*) and i wonder from what direction you came?

* also it was love. yes maths and love, blew my mind :mrgreen:
