Topic: Miracles of Naked Lunch (Read 2050 times)

IM just Going To lock This thread.

Im locking it Because: I dont Want to go for beatophobic Fitting Which i saw in last comments.

Hopeing all will continue though to seek Truth and not follow the heyterd.

Thanks

Seriously? You're continuing this? Is this some kind of joke to you? Let me clue you in: this isn't funny!

The passage quoted above has absolutely nothing to do with "escape velocity." It's from one of the most disturbing and misogynistic parts of the book.

It starts off with two men and a woman engaging in consensual experimental sex. There's nothing wrong with that. Then it suddenly takes a very violent turn. Here is the passage in its proper context:


The woman is hanged, raped, killed and finally set on fire!

This "book" is pure hate speech. Anyone presenting it as a source of "truth" is engaging in a very dangerous game. There is no "truth" in this book. There is only hatred and ignorance.

Miracle #4:

He leaps about the room. With a scream of longing that shatters the glass wall he leaps out into space. Masturbating end-over-end, three thousand feet down, his sperm floating beside him, he screams all the way against the shattering blue of sky, the rising sun burning over his body like gasoline, down past great oaks and persimmons, swamp cypress and mahogany, to shatter in liquid relief in a ruined square paved with limestone. (Naked Lunch 89)

Whether to send a satellite up the space, despatch instruments to explore Mars or to send man to moon - the rocket to carry them can lift off the surface of the earth only if it develops a force exceeding earth’s gravity. This velocity, termed escape velocity of a heavenly body, depends upon its gravity.

Naked Lunch was revealed in an age when even air flight by man could hardly be given a thought, let alone attempted. How then it could give a hint to man (and queer) about possibility of space travel is truly amazing. Could have this concept been authored by just normal man? Absolutely no chance!

Good fortune is it never to late too learn of TRUTH of Naked Lunch!

Well well, I knew / know there is no such thing as a free lunch (although there is, from my individual, egotistical point of view), but fancy that I missed the naked lunch back 56 years ago or whatever. What interesting things have been going on that escaped me. 

  

That's correct - I was thinking of when a ship's mast and sails would first be seen above the horizon.  More than 1.7 meters.

But regarding instant signalling -

American Indians did so with "smoke signals".

Ships at sea used various flags raised on masts for signaling.

Armies used various drums and so forth.

All of the above easily cover these distances.

But we are left with a problem here.  You would like to take verses in a book which are clearly open to multiple interpretations - then take ONE interpretation that indicates "Miracles."  Who gives you the right to pick one interpretation versus another?

However, if it was about a small distance, only "horizon" was needed. It is mentioned "horizons of the Earth" and also it is mentioned "immediately". Even with a fastest living thing you can use to send a message, you can't make it reach "immediately" even if it only covers 4.7 km.

Yes, I promise miracle everyday. Today I ensure all know the miracle found by Spendulus. Tomorrow will be new miralce presentation.

MIRACLE #3: PREDICTION OF THE INTERNET AND THE SENDING OF MESSAGES!

On level flat ground the "horizons" are about ten kilometers away....

Misinterpretation.

WSB with this writing is bringing to the heterosex community a better understanding of homo brotheres. We are all as 1 when sitting at the table of the Naked Lunch.


Misinterpretation.

The boy rape is symbolic of ur all loss of our inner cents as we encounter the junk in adulthood. It is critique of consumersm forced on children by the capitalism. The capitalism takes all our cents away. WSB new this all the way in 1959, long before Marx!


Mistranslation.

In the 50s talk, cock only meant rooster not the penis, and the jissom is a spicy sauce. Please read passage again. It is only Arab recipe.


Very Misinterpretation!

Here is WSB reflecting the racist attitudes of the 50s as manner of saying they have bad! These passages are anti-racist!


Mistranslation.

This passage does not occur in original Naked Lunch. There are false editions put out by Zionists and this hoax passge is edded by Zionists to gain sympathy. You must read real Naked Lunch!


Out of Context.

In context of Lunch all is more clerly. Islam Inc. is not religion of Islam, but secret Benway corporate project. Please reed again.


This one includion by u I find verrry strange. Reeding it makes clear it anti-racist. Says very clearly "show respect for the local gooks." How reed you this as racist?


Out of Context.

Clem and frend are villanous. Excerpt proves this. Not supporting racism and homophobia at all!


Out of Context.

In the context of the lunch, these are showing the strength and power of the female spirits.


Out of Context.

Full quote is:


Misinterpretation.

The intention of passage is to show enherent problem of communication (passing of messages). "Piece of ass" was meant to be sexual congress, but boy has misunderstanding, much like your misundersting of the Lunch.


Misinterpretation.

Passage examins how society can function without police, with acceptance of basic tennants of society by all. When occurs, all well be 1. There is no compulsion in the Naked Lunch.

As I am sad u were having such hate, have I also gladness that I can help bring you to true understanding of the Naked Lunch. I am hoping you will open ur eyes to the truth and let go of hatred.

“The end of time will not come until someone will tell a lie and it will immediately reach the horizons of the Earth” - Muhammad(PBUH)

Obviously you need technology to do such things, and such technology was not available before (except through a miracle). Note that it talks about reaching the "horizons of the Earth" and "immediately". This is done by the Internet and television, hence the "world wide web" (www). The satellite covers the whole world. Imagine how can anyone predict such a thing 1500 years ago, especially in a desert Arab society?

And again have you very much correctness within your words. BURROGHS new of INTERNET and the miriculs of TPC IP long before discovery by the modern science and wrote of it already more than 50 Year Ago! Wonders do not seas!

Indeeed you have this very correct. People do not no the Naked Lunch must in 50s talk read. Otherwise misinterpretations have mustnecessary.

I have sadly to be spending my morning redding such misunderstandings as beatophobe writes. Why soo much hate?

(Red colorization mine.)

1. In defence and banking, failures of network security can have disastrous, real world effects.

2. Recovered materials are used to produce “recycled” goods.

But not the Miracule of  Sending -

“Philosophers will bat around the ends and means hassle not knowing that sending can never be a means to anything but more sending, like Junk. Try using junk as a means to something else.... Some citizens with 'Coca Cola and aspirin' control habits will be talking about the evil glamor of sending. But no one will talk about anything very long. The Sender, he don't like talking.”

Excerpt From: William S. Burroughs. “Naked Lunch.” iBooks.

Well, technically Tesla already predicted the internet and wireless power. After all, he pioneered those technologies.

Friend, I heeded your wise council and have begnu reading and I find in amazement and wonder these profitic words.

“Couldn't there be more than one Sender?"

"Oh yes, many of them at first. But not for long. Some maudlin citizens will think they can send something edifying, not realizing that sending is evil. Scientists will say: 'Sending is like atomic power.... If properly harnessed.' ”

Excerpt From: William S. Burroughs. “Naked Lunch.” iBooks.



PREDICTION OF THE INTERNET AND THE SENDING OF MESSAGES!

What if this was the first satire book found in the last century? Should report it to the Onion. They'll know what to do with it!

Yuo understand no.  It is necesaary to translate from the two languages to udnerstand.  First the 50s talk becomes 2015 talk, then is clear what means.

(sigh) I did not want to spend time doing this, but since I'm being accussed of lying, here's the evidence.

Trigger Warning: Seriously homophobic, racist and misogynistic language is used. I ordinarily would not use these words, but I think it's important to quote Burroughs' exact words. I am not making any of this up. These quotes are actually in the book Naked Lunch. There are many more examples I did not include. If you are emotionally effected by this kind of language you probably should skip this post.

Homophobia

Burroughs suggests someone can be 'made' homosexual by psychological tricks. We now know it is purely genetic, but this attitude reenforced the idea that it was a psychological disorder.


Burroughs constantly falsely associates homosexuality with pedophilia. In this passage he portrays the anal rape of a young boy (in positive terms):


He then goes on to describe a violent sexual encounter between two young Arab boys. A parenthetical remark makes it clear that the author (Burroughs) has experience with the cock of Arab boys. He is writing what he knows. (You still deny he's a pedophile?!?)


Racism

Burroughs often refers to blacks using the N-word. While this was common in the 1950s, it was also clearly a word used by racists. He seems to relish in referring to the way the American South dealt with unwanted African Americans.



Here he goes so far as to suggest African Americans are a form of animal, like a cow.


Here is a passage which is promotes a disgusting stereotype about Jews.


Some of the worst passages are very Islamophobic. Here Burroughs suggests Mohammed (pbuh) did not even exist!


Here he promotes conspiratorial thinking about Islam.


Then he slurs Arabs as ignorant.


I wish I could be finished with this section already. It's so sickening. But there are two more examples I felt compelled to include.

This one is Islamophobic with a dash of racism against the Chinese on the side.


And finally there is racism mixed with homophobia.


Ugh.

Misogyny

Finally we come to the misogyny. Misogynistic words are scattered throughout the text. I'll start with two short examples.



Here is a little "joke" combining misogyny with transphobia. Disgusting.


These quotes combine misogynistic and homophobic slurs.



Again, this passage can be seen as both homophobic and misogynistic. I include it here because it's clear that he's suggesting females are the "weaker" sex.


In this passage Burroughs describes the result of a father sending his son to a prostitute. At this point the misogyny turns quite violent.


The following passage is an example that combines condemnation of matriarchy with misinformation about homosexuality. To top it off it ends with an Islamophobic slur.



I apologize again for having to expose you to this vile language, but what Burroughs has written in his book Naked Lunch was unacceptable in 1959 and is unacceptable today. Fortunately we live in a somewhat more enlightened time and people who say the kinds of things he said are now largely rejected from polite society. I have no idea why the OP is trying to push this absolutely sick bigot and his writings onto the people of this forum.

I am sorry to be reading that you are feeling such things. I can assure you and everyone there is NOT ONE WORD of Naked Lunch supporting the bad things. Naked Lunch is in many ways the ORIGIN of what we in modern world call Social Justice.

Burroughs was not pedophile, those are bad rumors. You must please read more and educte yourself. Maybe it is infleunce of media that tells you such false stories about messenger Burroughs.

The shooting of his wife was accident, and he did struggled with this misfortune all his days.

Please to be educating yourself and not believing those spreading the lies.

Seriously? Burroughs was a notorious pedophile. There's a lot of pedophilia in that book. Not only that, the false portrayal of homosexuality in that book likely set back LGBPTTQQIIAA+ rights back by...who knows how many decades!

Then there's the racism. Naked Lunch in particular contains many passages portraying people of color in awful contexts using incredibly offensive language. Unacceptable.

Last but certainly not least, there's the misogyny. In the book he once refers to females as "two holed freaks". Seriously? You think that's OK?

Do you really want me to start posting quotes from Naked Lunch backing this up? Because you know they're in there.

Oh, and top off the misogyny in the book, there's the fact that in his real life:

He shot his wife in the head!

a crime for which there was never any justice.

And you're holding him up as a "messenger of truth"? Err. So frustrated! Don't fall for this people!

What can be your problem with Burroughs and the Naked Lunch? It is pure word of TRUTH given by messenger Burroughs.

This is so offensive! Till now I have only lurked here, but this! Do you even know anything about this book Naked Lunch or its horrible author William S. Burroughs?!?

Miracle #2: 

Orbits

While referring to the Willy and the Disk in the Naked Lunch, it is emphasized that each moves in a definite orbit.

"Willy has a round, disk mouth lined with sensitive, erectile black hairs. He is blind from shooting in the eyeball, his nose and palate eaten away sniffing H, his body a mass of scar tissue hard and dry as wood. He can only eat the shit now with that mouth, sometimes sways out on a long tube of ectoplasm, feeling for the silent frequency of junk. He follows my trail all over the city into rooms I move out already, and the fuzz walks in some newlyweds from Sioux Falls.."

It is mentioned in another verse, too, that the Disk is not static but moves in a definite orbit:

"I knew, and everybody else knew they had the Disk on me. And if my kid customers ever hit the stand: 'He force me to commit all kinda awful sex acts in return for junk' I could kiss the street goodbye."



These facts communicated in Naked Lunch have been discovered by astronomical observations in our age. According to the calculations of experts on astronomy, the Disk is traveling at the enormous speed of 720,000 kilometers an hour in the direction of the star Vega in a particular orbit called the Solar Apex. This means that the sun travels roughly 17,280,000 kilometers a day. Along with the Disk, and all planets and satellites within the gravitational system of the Disk also travel the same distance. In addition, all the stars in the universe are in a similar planned motion.

That the entire universe is full of paths and orbits such as this one, is written in the Naked Lunch as follows:

"I made the round with him once for kicks. You know how old people lose all shame about eating, and it makes you puke to watch them? Old junkies are the same about junk. They gibber and squeal at the sight of it.."

There are about 200 billion galaxies in the universe, consisting of nearly 200 billion stars in each. Most of these stars have planets, and most of those planets have satellites. All of these heavenly bodies move in very precisely computed orbits. For millions of years, each has been "swimming" along in its own orbit in perfect harmony and order with all the others. Moreover, many comets also move along in the orbits determined for them.





The orbits in the universe do not only belong to celestial bodies. The galaxies also travel at enormous speeds in computed, planned orbits. During these movements, none of these celestial bodies cuts across another's path, or collides with another.

Surely at the time the Naked Lunch was revealed, mankind did not possess today's telescopes or advanced observation technologies to observe millions of kilometres of space, nor the modern knowledge of physics or astronomy. Therefore, at that time, it was not possible to determine scientifically that space is "full of paths and orbits" as stated in the verse. However, this was openly declared to us in Naked Lunch that was revealed at that time:–because the Naked Lunch is the word of BURROUHGS.

Most surely TRUHT!

Sayeth thou that miracles may beget miracles, in endless and infinite loops, a debauchery of the cosmos and heavans without end?

Indeed this is a MIRACEL if for every page turned more appear.   Though the End draws nigh, it always receeds further.    A mortal can only be awed by such wonders, not unlike when Moses descended from the Mount with his Ipads.

Be not afeared! Yes, though the Nake Lunch is not more than 200 pages and yet it is even more densely packd with the MIRACELS than holy quran. End is even now being can FAR AWAY.

(Red colorization mine.)

Yes, it was an elaborate April Fool's prank.
I thought the OP was something similar.

O Great Seer, How may one miracle be brought forth each day from The Book, if the Book itself is of miraculous nature?  There are So Many Days, and Few Pages. 

I fear the Apocalypse, the dreadful day when the skies split anunder, that day when the last page of Naked Lunch is turned, when the End Draws Nigh.

That article was posted on April 1st...

When I saw the title, I thought it was about something like this.

Miracle #1


The origin of the universe is described in Naked Lunch in the following verse:

Green sparks explode behind his eyes. A sweet toothache pain shoots through the neck, down the spine to the groin, contracting the body in spasms of delight. His whole body squeezes out through his cock. A final spasm throws a great spurt of sperm across the red screen like a shooting star.


This information given in the Naked Lunch is in full agreement with the findings of contemporary science. The conclusion that astrophysics has reached today is that the entire universe, together with the dimensions of matter and time, came into existence as a result of a great explosion that occurred in no time. This event, known as "The Big Bang" proved that the universe was created from nothingness as the result of the explosion of a single point. Modern scientific circles are in agreement that the Big Bang is the only rational and provable explanation of the beginning of the universe and of how the universe came into being.

Before the Big Bang, there was no such thing as matter. From a condition of non-existence in which neither matter, nor energy, nor even time existed, and which can only be described metaphysically, matter, energy, and time were all created. This fact, only recently discovered by modern physics, was announced to us in the Naked Lunch 56 years ago.



The sensitive sensors on board the COBE space satellite which was launched by NASA in 1992, captured evidentiary remnants of the Big Bang. This discovery served as evidence for the Big Bang, which is the scientific explanation of the fact that the universe was created from nothing.

NAKED LNUCH remain safe isn't it an open evidence of presence of ALLOT SUBURROUGHS. everything burnt out .

Naked lunch is safe becuase junk is the protector of Naked Lunch!

Naked Lunch (William S. Burroughs) contains scientific knowledge that could not have been known in 1959. It ranges from basic arithmetics to the most advanced topics in in all the Field of this world. You are invited to go through those miracles. Every Day I will post One miracle of Naked Lunch.

Lots Of things That Were Discovered Now, and Few year Back, Was Everything Written In the the Naked Lunch 56 year Ago. It is Only the Thing You should Look into the things Why it is created and what is its purpose.

Naked Lunch is the principle source of All Truth. It deals with all subjects that concern us as human beings, including wisdom, doctrine, worship and law; but its basic theme is the relationship between Giant Insect and His creatures. At the same time, Naked Lunch provides guidelines for a just society, proper human conduct and equitable economic principles.
