this is becoming 'why do you think' Tongue

I hope you have started a thread on it. Why do you think? Or what are you thinking about?

I should be thinking about my thesis, but at the moment I can not think about anything else but this girl. URGH!

[done!]

this has been disproven.

Most of what I think is a total waste of electro chemical energy; bad software.

the disproof is a fudge factor - in which case its not a disproof its a limbo.  In which case its still true until disproven.  In which case....

but it is one  of the founding tenets of Zen Buddhism that thinking is NOT Being. one can be without thinking, and in Zen terms; thinking is an obstacle to being. Thus there is a prelinguistic condition of being that we experience as infants without any linguistic distinction; then along comes the naming of things and the beginning of language which begins to distance ourselves from experience. ( which is why we need to dance so much)this(language) is linked directly to thinking.

could be both EM - too much on the wrong, and too little on the right subjects. 
I hasten to add that that is obviously only the opinion of whoever the critic was....

So what it's really trying to say is that not (being => thinking).  However, I don't think it's trying to say that not (thinking => being).  Unless the photons can arrange a way to start thinking by themselves.  Matter?  Who needs matter?   Grin
