Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm...

If there isn't a soul left except for our intrepid reporter/writer --- who is he writing too???

What do you think?

Sometimes one picture can worth a 1000 words. One can also be put in the "brig" for posting them
Can't you just see the Love............

If words mean nothing why then are we so often warned to tame our tongue in Scripture, to watch our words, that we give an account for our words?

 

[Rick Otto]

why is it interesting?

 

[Epiphoskei]

That video makes no sense...

 

[WhereIsTheUniverse]

why is it interesting?

The character does not have a name, like yourself and everything.

The character does not have a gender, age, ethnicity or any features.

This character is fiction and speaking to the reader.



Imagination.

Yeah, but look at for cryin' out loud...
I agree there are lots of point-of-interest chunks floating around in that soup, but check out the aroma...
In order for anything as richly nuanced as words to have "no meaning", means that this person has become alienated from purpose and is leaching his identity into a nebulous morass of spasmodic, amorphousness.
Know what I mean?

Ok, maybe I was being a bit harsh.
Sorry.

You mean that you believe that words have no meaning,
or that according to the video words have no meaning?

Interesting subject from a psychological pov.
There have been many studies on babys and language
etc.

But from a spiritual pov, words have not only meaning,
but much power, right?

Sorry I am maybe not following your thoughts.

Ergo, your post was meaningless.

 

[windjammer]

Hi Jesus says by your words , idle or not you wil be justified or judged[condemned ] ?
I believe Jesus !!!, words do hold ''responsibility ''
the WORD OF GOD is true and every man a liar

The "video" from the OP reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut books: pointless, but interesting nonetheless.

 

[SonOfSophroniscus]

Hey!
Interesting pointlessness is Kurt's whole point!
"American author noted for his pessimistic and satirical novels. Kurt Vonnegut Jr.'s best known work is SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE (1969), which was based on his experiences in Dresden, Germany, where he was a prisoner-of-war at the destruction of the town in 1945. Vonnegut used fantasy and science fiction to examine the horrors and absurdities of 20th century civilization."

I grew up in his home town, and remember his dad's hardware store.
"Unknown to most Hoosiers, the Vonnegut family has left an indelible mark on Indiana. Kurt’s great grandfather, Clemens Vonnegut, established Vonnegut Hardware Company in Indianapolis after arriving in America from Germany. Vonnegut hardware would remain a staple of downtown Indy for over a century. "
