If there really is a complete unified theory that governs everything, it presumably also determines your actions. But it does so in a way that is impossible to calculate for an organism that is as complicated as a human being. The reason we say that humans have free will is because we can't predict what they will do.

Yet if there really were a complete unified theory, it would also presumably determine our actions so the theory itself would determine the outcome of our search for it! And why should it determine that we come to the right conclusions from the evidence? Might it not equally well determine that we draw the wrong conclusion? Or no conclusion at all?

The Heart determines
Fate determines who comes into our lives.
The heart determines who stays...
Rate determines what comes best
The fact determines what the worth
Mate determines the life you lead
The quest determines the depth of love
Bate determines the fish you catch
The sea determines how much you did watch
Road determines the longer the travel
The destination determines the fair well
God determines what you are destined
The fate determines what you deserve
Friends determines the strength you have
The emotion determines the depths of love
Fate determines who comes into our lives
The heart determines who stays on forever………..

Law in general is human reason, inasmuch as it governs all the inhabitants of the earth: the political and civil laws of each nation ought to be only the particular cases in which human reason is applied.

It is impossible for us to understand the Church if we regard her as subject to the limitations of human culture. For she is essentially a supernatural organism which transcends human cultures and transforms them to her own ends.

Unity Of Unified Purpose
Applicable dreams enacted, invigorated, possess
power to shift, alter, an individualized cosmology.
Conceived laws of known universe ordered
to create a unified theory humanized whole.
Metaphysics altered to create engender
more peaceful global causality solutions
as relationships between vibrant universe
and human mind are positively altered.
Unity of Unified Purpose
is a journey of purpose.

Complicated Melody
If he were a color
Hed be a deep dark forrest green
If he were a car
Hed be a long stretch limousine
With room for all of humanity inside
Cause he is so giving
And he is so wise
If he were a number
Hed be a five cause he has such a brilliant mind
If he were an animal
Hed be an ass cause hes so stubborn sometime
But if he were a song
Hed be a complicated melody
That complicated fellow he
I almost can not sing it on key
But he means the world to me
If he were a building
Hed be a beautiful cathedral
Cause hes so traditionally spiritual
If he were a dance
Hed be complicated like the tango
Exotic like a mango
But if he were a song
Hed be a complicated melody
That complicated fellow he
I almost can not sing it on key
But he means the world to me
He aint the reason for the sun and the moon
He is just the reason for this here tune
Cause he means the world to me (ooh ooh)
Said he means the world to me
Me me me yeah
He means the world to me yeah
Complicated melody that complicated fellow he
Hes a complicated melody
I almost can not sing it on key

Who Knows
Each day the dawn rises
and the sun begins to shine,
but what if one day
there was no sun no more
and the skies remain black.
The world would become cold
and life would fade away.
The human race would then know
its judgement day.
Scientists predict that day
is a long way off
and we will never see it in our lifetime.
No one can predict what tomorrow will bring,
nor can we predict when the sun will ever die.
We all hope it will be never,
but really, who knows?

Terrorism
When will this world be free
From the talons of terrorism?
When will all decree
Equality of every organism?
Every move of the ordinary
Set in fear of Homosapiens...
A jungle's full of harmony
Have animals bettered the humans?

What's Inside!
it does not matter
whether you're Christian,
Buddhist, Hindu, Moslem,
or atheist by choice...
we are all born human!
with the potential to be...
fully human!
we have choices everyday....
what we do with our time,
our will, our feelings, our actions...
determines what we really are...
it doesnt matter so much about labels...
what matters is what's inside!

Theoretical Fault Lines
intellectually mistrust
oversight inadequacy
of scientific
or philosophical theory
or abstract
moral principals obtuse
must defective fail
through deficient
integrity lacking
a core sustainable
transformation purity
coherent unified whole
simplified theorems
discounting inconvenient
incompatible surplus data
cannot aesthetically
encapsulate harmoniously
complete universal truths
optical event kaleidoscope
containing many colours shapes
integrates rotating complex
symmetrical shifting patterns
through multiple reflections
within inclined fixed mirrors
symbolic stimulus
placed between
transparent plates
at contained end
of a sealed tube
assembly constructs
a complicated set
of circumstances
shift representative
of segments only
balance of an all pervading
life light cosmic cohesion

Unified
It could be so nice but the world is not ready, yeah
It could be so nice but the world is not ready yo
Weather youre a black man
Or youre a white man
Or your from england or from japan
Or youre from chili or youre and american
Youre from the middle east or youre and african
Well it could be so nice but the world is not ready, yeah
It could be so nice but the world is not ready yo
Now come on everyone on this place come together
Wouldnt it be nice if we could all live together forever
Finding our peach in unity
Destroying the noting of foolish vanities
Pull to rise
Lift the blinds
The funky dope is here in 1999
And were praising so were raising out of this oblivion
And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
You cant stop this with your mind tricks
Like neo in the matrix Im chosen
Uplift with the gift
Like gandolf the wizard
I conjure a blizzard of magic to ride it high
Unified unified unified
Unified unified unified
It could be so nice but the world is not ready, yeah
It could be so nice but the world is not ready yo
They dont want it in their government
They dont want it with their politricks
They dont want it with their brainwash
They dont want it with their money fix
Unified unified unified
Unified unified unified
I want it want it want it want it
It could be so nice but the world is not ready, yeah
It could be so nice but the world is not ready yo

Unrealistic Are These Wishes
Some seek a pot of gold,
At the end of a rainbow...
But,
Unrealistic are these wishes to predict.
Yet...
Kept are unrealistic wishes.
And...
Others seek clouds lined,
With silver to behold.
But,
Unrealistic are these wishes to predict.
Yet...
Kept are unrealistic wishes.
Nothing is impossible to believe.
Or...
Too impossible to receive.
And...
Unrealistic are these wishes to predict,
For...
Anyone who's not a wisher!
Some seek a pot of gold,
At the end of a rainbow...
But,
Unrealistic are these wishes to predict.
Yet...
Kept are unrealistic wishes.
And...
Others seek clouds lined,
With silver to behold.
But,
Unrealistic are these wishes to predict.
Yet...

Unrealistic are these wishes to predict,

Blinking Like Ferrets
I've been too busy
the last two years to chat
with anyone in the office.
Today, however, I pause
at the pencil sharpener
while my co-workers
calculate and jot.
It makes no difference, you see,
if I remain silent until retirement
or if suddenly I start talking again.
All we must remember is
that we decay together,
that this charade
we give ourselves to
doesn't require that we speak,
that all we must do, really,
is calculate and jot.
If we calculate well,
if we jot well, the charade
will carry us through.
In the end, we'll see what is true
when blinking like ferrets
we emerge in sunlight,
gaping and gasping,
free of this maze created
by the family of man.

Scientific Method
Im critically thinking
I observe her emotions.
I predict about her feelings.
Then experiment on her attraction.
I graph a correlation of our relations.
We sometimes become negative and we sometimes become positive.
But I never figure out a problem.
So my theory is not solved.
I couldn't find her behaviorism.
But finding her heart was my mission.
I got to formulate a bond between us.
We love each other then we don't so where is the trust.
She is my case study, but it don't take psychology or biology to find our loving.
No couseling.
We must create positive bonds not electrons.
We must be together like hydrophilic(water loving) not hydrophobic (not water loving)
I done so many researches of facts but never find the cause and effect.
Im just a scientist of love and our test results started out positive but ended up negative.
My hypothesis I guess she thinks I cheated on her.
I try to do this experiment methodical, but I can't go by a horoscope of astrology.
Biology or chemistry and I'm not a mind reader like psychology.
But maybe I should make a explanation of what have changeher emotions.
She say the things I do was the cause of her emotion.
So her heart is broken.
And she hold my heart as her token it was never mistaken but my eyes are awaken.
I made mistakes that I wish I could change, but my actions had cause her pain.
So my theory was my actions of hurting her and I will promise that I will remain true.
Not talking about true religion but im talking about vision of our future.
You see i predict a hypothesis that we will be together forever only if I dont make her cry like a bad weather.
Or fail this experiment with a error.
I'm trying to overcome matter of nature and with you I will cherish
like treasure.
That is hidden on this earth to keep you safe from terror.

No more tears! watch your actions!
Newton's third law says that every action has equal and opposite reaction,
A Great Scientist, the son of Europe, opened the gate that was shut,
His theory is limited to chemical action and reaction, not to the human's,
If we show the other cheek, we will be slapped; don't let others to slap,
If we do bad actions, we will receive bad reaction in near future or far,
If we do good actions, we will be blessed with good reaction of peace,
No one can run away from their actions, as it is recorded in our fate,
Even we do not have enough time to receive and enjoy,
Even we do not have enough time to receive and regret,
We may have our subsequent birth to continue the same route,
If we hurt someone in the morning, we will be hurt in the evening,
All these facts are simple, easy to follow, when our actions are good.

Impossible!
it is impossible to believe in compassion,
and to just stand by watching injustice upon
injustice being heaped on the backs of the poor!
it is impossible to be spiritual without being
human enough to feel the hunger of the hungry!
impossible to believe in love without being angered
when you see countless people being thrown
away and cast to the side like human trash!
it is impossible to remain silent when you can
hear the thundering tears of the children!
