Alternate ways of living #31b: It's just as possible that we’re actually born at the point of death with amazing precognitive powers, and as we age we simply forget more and more about our past.
Corpses brought to life by viruses, by sudden miracles of a body just warming up, with nascent knowledge of everything to come, regretful or comforted by what we've yet to do for certain and anxious and excited by things that have already happened, our preternatural powers growing stronger the more and more we block out the past and ignore what we've already done, eventually to be sucked back up into our parents, ad infinitum, forgetting more and more about science and returning to a state of oneness in the primordial ooze, in the big crunch that is the end of all matter and energy and time.
Billiards, then, a game of putting things back together, relationships a game of chance last meetings, entropy the law of the universe that in fact leads towards cohesion. Vomiting food out, depopulating the planet, large businesses callously cleaning up the environment and military aircraft flying around putting houses and people back together. Time being only a persistent illusion, indifferent to direction in regards to physics, how is this in any way not just as plausible as what we've been let to believe?
