Reply #57: here's the problem....

"If I could create my own reality, no one would have to eat for me or exercise for me. My biochemistry would automatically process whatever I ate, no matter how "unhealthy" by normal standards, into healthy results for me. My body would grow well-toned muscles, a strong heart, and a strong respiratory system without the need for me, or anyone else, to exercise to get those results."

Now who's blaming the victim....????

Not everybody wants or needs a 'perfect' body. In case I haven't actually "spelled" this, out, implicit in my belief system is that we are here in this reality to LEARN....and we get second chances if we are too distracted this time around. Those people who were borne with 'missing limbs' or congenital diseases have acknowledged that there are important things to learn EVEN WITHOUT a perfect body.

This is where the 'capitalist culture' comes into play. It creates these phoney ideals that you bust your ass pursuing....like appearance over substance.

Like I said earlier, this philosophy is complicated and hard to explain. If you believe in the one-life-then dead scenario I doubt if I'll even try....your move.
