I'm guessing some of you have read this already.
The Egg
It's a short story about, well... you'll see.
When I read it, this was my reaction through the whole thing:
MIND=BLOWN
Discuss the awesomeness if this were real.

Woah, so that means I am you. And I'm my mom. And I'm a famous person. So I just posted this on my own topic. Weird, huh?

Yay I'm me.
I read this before on the creepypasta wiki and found it interesting rather than scary. The story is very philisophical and seems to be the answer to life - I guess.

we all are. time doesn't exist where 'he' comes from.

I want this to be true so that after a lot of deaths, I get to be a god.

See, when I originally read this, it just seemed kind of "meh"
So what I am apparently 'everybody ever'. Do I currently have the thoughts of everybody ever? Will I ever be consistently aware of being everybody ever? There is no branch between us. The idea that I am everyone becomes abstract when there is no connection - sure I may be the "root" of everyone - but each person the God is creating is distinctly unique.
Never being consistently aware of this, consistently similar to any of them, etc. makes the point of the story just kind of boring.
Maybe this story would have more of a point if I could REMEMBER everything that ever happened - but I can't can I? All those different incarnations of me are as unique as we all really are.

kind of thing people should believe in
it's not meant to be literal of course but it spreads a very good message, very good

I agree; I'm not sure that if this were true there'd really be any point to knowing it.

well, the reason they actually have this conversation is for the reader. I mean, if this were real, you'd just reincarnate, don't you think? no talking with God in between.

There's no proof for that because nobody who has died has told us what happened if they really were reincarnated.
