Anyone here dislike Sufjan Stevens?

Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
lets me see.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.

lets me see there is so much more
and beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn outside the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.
Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.
With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going, going...
Qabala?

I got that, and you should get the reference to it in the lyrics I posted. You above all seem to be able to see past my obfuscations and vague twisted references. The Eye of Providence has roots in the Qabala, just like the old testament. Pre-Hebrew Judaism (sp?) or Hebrew Mythology is the basis for alot of Christian philosophy, but apart from it on a whole. There is more to everything than meets the eye. Pun intended. Just like the eye on the reverse of the Dollar is traced to Masonic origins, it can also be seen to represent the American support of Isreal before modern Isreal exsisted. There is too much to go through in a single post, you could take a historical view of this, or as I prefer a Sociological twist on Psychohistory. Signs of things to come are often unintentionally shown before they actually happen. One could even suggest that predestination is a fact and Free will is just an extension of this. No these concepts do not contradict. I can explain but I don't want to bore you or lose the good natured jesting in this post.
Oh, and I am serious about going away for computer components. I will buy them myself eventually, but instant gratification is somewhat rewarding.

What the shit, I quoted the Dugout and no one even paid attention. =(
KharBevNor:
Hey, I couldn't see the first time these guy quoted Tool lyrics.
It would seem that Tommy is strangely conversant with Tool lyrics.
Storm Rider:
Guys, I think the problem here is that he is posting Tool lyrics.
The hypocrisy of a Tool fan calling Sufjan Stevens pretentious is staggering, and I don't even like Stevens.
