Bill Hicks Discussion Thread

Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather.

Bill Hicks - Positive Drug Story

Clip also includes:

"The world is like a ride at an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it's real 'cause that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down, and around and 'round, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud. And it's fun... for a while.

Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: 'is this real, or is this just a ride?' And other people have remembered. And they come back to us, and they say 'hey! Don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride.' And we... kill those people.

'Shut him up. We have a lot invested in this ride... shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account, and my family. This just has to be real.'

It's just a ride.

But we always kill those good guys who try to tell us that, and let the demons run amok. You ever notice that?

But it doesn't matter because it's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money... a choice, right now, between Fear and Love.

The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one.

Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride: take all that money we spend on weapons and defense each year and, instead, spend it feeding, clothing, and educating the poor of the world, which it would, many times over, not one human being excluded, and we can explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever."

And let us all say,

Amen.

:D
