I don't know about you, fellow web crawlers and all nighters, but my origins are less complacated then what I'd planned to make of them. My dad screwed my mom, and I was born. Plan and simple. It's what came after that that is important. A process and theory I'd like to call Mental-Evolution. The theory is this: With progressive mental strain, a person can adapt to cope. In lamans terms, if you are too stressed in any certain way, the body and mind will change. Hence the last term, evolution.

As a fellow member of man-kind, I must inform you that this process is a rare one indeed. At least the physical changes anyways, which can damage a person, in more ways the one. The mental changes in Mental-Evolultion are more common, affecting only the mind, and thus far less damaging than the physical affects. In order to truly understand this theory, i'll a documented case. Myself.

From birth, reptiles have been my life, my existance. I do not believe there has been a time when i have not had at least one around the house, from snakes to lizards, frogs and toads, salamanders and newts, even a couple of turtles! This was the cause of my mental strain, where my adaption has come from. in almost every aspect, my life portrays that of a serpent. Not a vile slimy thing to be feared, at least not all the time, and never slimy, but a noble and subtle beast, a master of it's domain, a top predator. snakes don't like to fight, only attacking in self defence, and then only after great lengths. i myself am not violent, someone has to attack me before i will attack them. and even then, i use my only fighting skill: speed. i am small and agile, able to bend and wheeve around the large opponant to strike when i see fit, usually in a weak spot. during the mating season is the only time when snakes can usually be found together. they are mostly solitary animals, like myself, and when couples do occur in nature, they don't last long. like nearly all of my relationships. the longest relationship i've ever had was about three months, but it was an off and on relationship, so it doesn't really count.

mabye i'm a weirdo, a freak, but i'm ok with that. i came here and posted this theory because my high school simple laughed me out over it. i want the opinions of those who will truly read this, and perhaps ask for more, not the treatment i've been getting over this theory. so, riddle me this: am i crazy, or am i right?

EACH ONE OF US CARRIES A CONTERPART. THIS POTRAYS THE INNERMOST DESIRES OF OUR TRUE BEING. IF YOU SEARCH OUT, FIND, AND LEARN TO MANIPULATE THIS INNER BEAST YOU HAVE CONTROL OVER YOUR MIND. NOT MANY HAVE COMPLETELY WENT THE DISTANCE. THE ASAIN CULTURES FOLLOWED ANIMALS FOR THE SPIRIT. STARTING WITH THE DRAGON, THEN THE TIGER BOTH BEING ONE, AND SEPERATE BLACK,AND WHITE. GOOD, AND EVIL. IT ACTUALLY JUST DWELLS INSIDE THE INDIVIDULE. IF YOU HAVE FOUND YOU INNER PET SO TO SPEAK. THEN YOU MUST EMBRACE IT, AND LEARN IT'S WAYS. THEN YOU FIND YOURSELF. IF YOU FIND THAT YOU CANNOT CONTROL THIS CREATURE THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE THE POWER TO DEAL WITH YOUR OWN SELF. LIVING IN TERROR, AND MISERY. THIS BEAST WILL EMPOWER YOU TO YOUR FULLEST OF POTENIALS. BE HEAD STRONG, AND YOU WILL PREVAIL. I FOUND MY INNER BEAST YEARS AGO. THIS WHICH I SPEAK OF HAS MADE ME VERY STRONG, AND POWERFUL. I FEAR NONE, AND I STAND TALL, STRONG, AND NEVER LOOK BACK. TAKE A BREATH CLOSE YOUR EYES PICTURE A QUTIE PLACE IN YOUR MIND WHEN YOU REACH THERE YOUR BEAST WILL GREET YOU WITH OPEN ARMS THEN IT IS JUST A CHOICE WHETHER YOU EXCEPT IT R NOT. THIS IS YOUR CALLING, AND NO ONE ELSE'S

Did you even read what I wrote? What the heck was that? I may indeed have what could be called animal traits, but I don't share my body with that of anything else, and I've done enough looking inside to find that out. Frankly, as I stated in my opening post, I believe that under certain pressures, the human mind and body can and will adapt to match those pressures, not that i had some beast within me to tap! Don't get all crazy on me, but i am a rational thinker, except at 2 am when working on a paper, and i believe that you are not! Where do people come up with stuff like what you said? Is there a book filled with it? If i could mabye get a rational comment on my theory, I would greatly oppreciate it, but otherwise, I'd rather not waste time in replying.

I read your post: to me that sounds like human nature

But what is human nature? Not sure i follow you there....


I'm unique, just like everybody else....

DC

Interesting... The inner beast. Apart from that it seems to shout in you, do you mean instincts? For in my opnion, instincts do not lead you to a higher self.

His inner beast. He was embracing it...

Well, the environment is a great and key component to evolution. So,
perhaps
being around the reptilians has caused a subliminal parallel structure
in
our dating behaviour. So, does that mean I am asexual since I do have a
lot
of trees in the erea were i leave? that would definately explain alot.

This is truth; environment does play a part in evolution. a major one, and i believe you could be right about that, in some cases. if you were asexual, i would place bets you could make the front page of all the grocery store tabloids! the ones with people who see jesus's face in hamburger buns? they would love you! but in your case, unless you are actually asexual, or mabye you are deeply influenced by these trees, i would say maye enviorment disn't play such a large part after all....

The evolution of the human mind (which is by no means a new subject) happens very rapidly, and is a prime example of evolution in general. If Scarlet's mating habits were influenced by the trees, then he might be asexual. However he wouldn't physically grow asexual genitalia, he would just think in an asexual manner. The mimicing of asexuality in human nature is usually expressed through either bisexuality or refusing to mate at all.

yes, i agree with you, on all points! but i'm going to switch gears here, and suggest a new topic: mutants. not like x-men types, but actually mutants such as were beasts, vampires, or anything anyone can think of, in a phrase, modern monsters. and not so modern, as the two i mentioned are old types.

DC

That was random.

Mondern-day mutants? Have you been reading to much of the national inquirer?



are you really under my bed?

Totally random; i almost regret writing it. i do read the enquirer, but only the interesting bits. well...it's all interesting, but mostly false.

Why don't you check?

DC

I see.


I would check but there is so much stuff under there that I'd probably miss you. Besides what if you popped out with dripping fangs and huge, bloodthirsty eyes and wanted to kill me because I disturbed you? Then what would I do?

it really makes for an interesting read, but it kinda gets dull when you read the same story about some guy who found jesus's face on a hamburger bun. i know that they've run out of stuff when i read the same stories twice. i don't look anything like that, except the bit about my eyes, i have that disease where you can't sleep, what's that called again? my eyes, are usually red, or kinda dull yellow, but they used to be blue!

DC

Yes it does become sad when you hear about bat-boy every other day...So there'd you be just lurking about with insomnia, with scary eyes and a copy of the enquirer-now I'm really afraid to check.

insomnia! thank you! i get about one to three hours of sleep a night, at best, five. this makes me a very cranky person most of the time. but seriously, did you ever think you had monsters under your bed? i had one for a while that was kinda like a gecko, and kinda like a person, because when my mom looked under the bed, he'd cling to the mattress, out of view; and he could talk. he'd whisper things to me at night sometimes. lol, that's how i got this way....

DC

Yeah I had a monster thing, I think it was a squid or something, it had tenticles at any rate. I never wanted my mom to check because I was afraid it would get her too. Mine never talked though...

Thats sounds lovely your mum screwed your dad and you were born great tenderness there.I feel sorry for you and hope you live a life alone and die alone if you're crap with relationships which you sound like you are but yet don't care.I would care believe me.

Oh yeah again i'd also care about thinking i was an animal not a human being i don't animals are capable of true love so you'll be missing out on something good.
