A quick observation about The Tract...

THE TRACT... In my words.

 

But first.
ABOUT KRIS FORMAGE.
Kris is the God of this paradigm, the Money paradigm. "Money is the root of all evil" to sum it up.
Kris embraces the Evil money god, that's what he is, but his intent is purely good, for all of US.
Kris isn't the God of Flowers so, he's not a hippy love guy. He rules with money on the mind, not love.
Kris in his acts of selfishness over money is actually being selfless by taking our shackles away from us.
Kris is a "Do as i say, not as i do" type of guy.


Now that we have that out of the way...

 


"From Omega to Alpha, and back again. And from Z to A."

 

Omega/Alpha/Omega = We were Cavemen, we evolved, then we devolved. Dumb to Intelligent, and back do dumb.
Z to A = We were there, but we fell off track, lost our way.

 

 

 

"We as a people have consistently got things backwards. I know that now.
I am not alive. I am dead. I am not rich, I am poor. I am not from Earth at all."

 

People have things backwards = Throughout history we always end up with an empire, but there is a better way to live.
Not alive/dead = This isn't living. The game of life, the goal and rewards that are sold to us are a lie.
Not rich/Poor = Anything you can imagine is possible, and yet we settle for only things we can imagine ourselves buying with money.

 

 

 

"Contrary to what you know, life is not life at all. It is all an illusion.
You are being controlled by lots of powerful forces you do not understand - like gravity."

 

Life is an illusion = Redundant, but it's all smoke and mirrors to keep you playing the game.(it is a game so, be a character :)
Controlled by forces, understand = I couldn't explain better than...

 

 

Like Gravity = As above, we don't understand how it works, but Gravity controls.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/question232.htm

 

 

 

"Just as an apple sometimes flies up from a tree and becomes a great Eagle,
so what seems like greed can in its own way be the most selfless act of all."

 

Whole thing = Sometimes one of us breaks out of the system(becomes independent(ly wealthy)
To do this you have to be selfish and greedy in that you have to focus on yourself and your goals above all else.
To become something of a "Celebrity" or "Guru" to worship and show people the way out of the farm.
(Remember in game what the Actor Guy says about needing Celebrities to worship?)

 

 

 

"The act of loving only one, the god head, is the act of loving all, the people as god head.
That is clear to those who seek, and seek we must and pay we must.
Seeking without paying is not living, it is living on the cheap."

 

Love one, god head, love all, as god head = YOU are the God Head.
Focusing on yourself to make a light for others to follow out of the dark is in fact an act for us all.

 

Seeking w/out paying = Unwillingness to pay for the wisdom shows you do not trust in it.

 

 

 

"Epsilonism is an expensive religion. Only for those with the wisdom to afford it.
Wisdom is our most valuable commodity and that is why we pay highly for it."

 

Whole thing = It does cost money, but for good reason. Money only holds US back now, it's not needed anymore.
To pay for the knowledge shows you understand that money is nothing. The more you pay the more you understand this truth.


Fin.

Next Chapter coming sometime tonight or tommorrow(i hope. not a lot of free time lately)

It's Cris. C R I S

Exactly...

 

I did that on purpose just to illustrate how well thought out posts are completely destroyed withing the first page by someone nitpicking something irrelevant. And now it's going to turn into an argument, nobody will comment on the actual core post, and 2 pages later the post will be about how Rockstar cheats their fans, somehow...

 

I just didn't think it would be the second person to comment. Bravo.

 

EDIT: The point being why does it matter how i draw a sound if you recognize that i am drawing that sound? I have to draw it the same way as you even if you understand my way?

 

If i draw a spaceship like the Chiliad Mural one and you draw one that looks like the Fort Z one is mine not a spaceship still?

 

It represents and audio sound, not a shape.

 

 

EDIT 2: It's just sad that the capacity for intelligence in the majority of the internet users stops at critiquing a single letter and not an entire post.

Tear apart my post all you want, but one letter? I don't even see the goal or reward of doing this besides the "Trolling" thing. Is that even still a thing?

I figure if you want to be taken at all seriously you might want to at least spell the guy's name right! :/

 

Your post doesn't appear to contain any solid conclusions.

Dude.. someone at Rocksta was like.. hey, let's make a quazi philosophical tract for that cult you guys decided to put in the game.. alright, remind me tonight when we get hight to write some sh*t.. and then they wrote it. There is no meaning of life or the ultimate truth on how life started in those words, it's random, not even funny, quazi philosophical tekst meant to compliment the whole stupidity of a quasi religious cult which is in itself a parody of Scientology mostly.

Conclusions on what, exactly? First page and you say i'm incorrect. Prove me wrong, do it.

 

All i see is people saying "Nuh uh, i said so!"

 

I don't see anyone bringing up any logic fails yet in what i wrote?

 

EDIT: You see, the reality that you live is a lie. "Unknow what you know".

 

Your reality consists of The Tract being nothing more than a mock religion and you live on that "Rule" of life. You play GTA under that rule being set in stone. so much that you depend on it. You attack people who challenge you rules of life and reality. It also attacks your ego because, you know for sure, right? You couldn't be wrong, you're the guy who knows indefinitely.

But, what if there was something in The Tract?

I've kinda been waiting for you to just bust this out, like you are doing. I'm glad you created a topic to discuss it.

 

 

I'm sure you find there's times, that you wrestle with how to convey an idea,I r in a way that is understandable, outside of your own head....maybe not, but that's what I struggle with a bit.

 

 

I really hope though, that you just let it all hang out, not mince words, ideas, personal interpretations and not care about nitpick'n'flick comments. Go balls deep...who cares! I think it's very interesting and I have enjoyed the read so far.

 

If anything, good for you for potentially feeding some possible ideas for future content/lore and providing more dimension to an already interesting aspect of the game and stories withing the game.

I could respond in PM, but it's all the same so I'll just do it here. The point is that it's very easy to interpret ANY tekst with some ''deeper'' meaning to it. I could literally take a coolinary recipe and ''interpret the real meaning'' of it with some quasi philosophical sentences, make sure it doesn't obviously contradict itself and make it into something bigger than it is.

As Freud, a big fan of interpreting the hell out of things, once said: Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

If it's fun for you, go ahead and ''interpret'' whatever you want from it, but all I'm saying is don't take this too seriously, it's a funny little thing in a game and nothing more.

Unless you guys have history, this is getting funny.

 

"You see, the reality you live is a lie." The "you see" makes it so much better! So condescending.

 

"Oh don't you worry, it's coming..." So confident but then you criticize people because they don't want to be wrong.

 

It makes me wonder if Rockstar gives people a free t-shirt or something in exchange for them doing certain things on public media.

First page and already i'm completely wrong...

There were many more pages to come, but i'll just keep it a story for my eyes only.

Suit yourselves, i guess.

I don't get the anger. As if i'm not allowed to see it differently. It's sad.

 

I bring fear of shattering your views of your reality so much that you attack me w/out even hearing my words.

 

 

It's k though. I already know what's in the box of goodies i bring. You people didn't want it though and turned away a free gift.

 

Like all those people on The Price Is Right that turn away their prizes and say "That's a bullsh*t prize, i want a car!"... :p

Dont let these nonbelieving unsavables deter you from writing the tract. They are more antithesis than thesis .KIFFLOM!
