And was the fact that you had to do "soul-searching" an intended pun? I mean, the result of your "soul-searching" was the relisation that souls don't exist! :-P So that totally throws a spanner in my understanding my how automatic doors work. (Simpsons reference.) Anyway, the Hip-Hop haters ref is on the "My Favourite Albums" link on the nav panel above. I pretty much agree with you on the music front, and I have my own ideas on why some people hate certian types of music... would be interesting to see if it the same again. hahah… ok… well I guess I’ll save any rebuttal for when you do come up with an arguement.

(the argument, which, of course, i haven't even layed out yet...) as for hip-hop music, when did i mention that? i swear i need to start a list of asides in posts where i suggest that i will write a post about something that i haven't started writing even. yeah, it is quite strange, i know (re: accepting multiple dimensions over souls). though before i posted this entry, i did some brief soul-searching about whether it’s worth giving up one idea you might accept (e.g. reincarnation) because it doesn’t fit into another world-view you accept more (e.g. athiesm). i’m sure there is a happy medium somewhere, but for now i’m going to come down on the side of athiesm and be sorta fundamentalistic about it use it as the basis of my argument against souls.

Anyway, it's interesting that you find it easier to accept multiple dimensions over the concept of souls. A lot of the people I know struggle with the idea of a 'multiverse' but take souls for granted. So is your view on reincarnation resultant from your view on souls? There is a definite dependancy there. Aside from that, I'm still waiting for your take on people who hate Hip-Hop music. ;-) Hi Jason, I’ve been reading your blog for a while now, (found it when I was looking up ‘Mysterious Skin’ a few months ago), and thought it’s about time I stopped lurking.
