  • Whether you believe in God or not, I think it’s a mistake to worship them or proclaim them a perfect being

    Imagine that we’re ants, and God is a 10 year old kid at a playground. Sure a kid might be overall good and try to genuinely help us ants, but a pair of giant hands can only cause destruction even when they try to help

    We can recognize that a god is more wise and more intelligent, while also recognizing that their judgement is fundamentally flawed and not always the best for us

    If religious people want a reason for why bad things happen and God does not intervene, then maybe God coming to a conclusion similar to mine above could be their reason why

    It’s all about attitude. You can’t choose your trauma, but you can choose how to see it:

    1. A normal experience that you “got over” and refuse to allow yourself (and by extension others) to say is or was “that bad,” may even lead to believing that it’s “your turn” to inflict it on anyone who arbitrarily deserves it
    2. A horrific experience that you never want another child to ever go through

    Luckily, I grew up with parents who saw it the #2 way and raised me with love

    You talking about the inevitable heat death of the universe?

    Yeah there’s a 100% chance that it won’t stay like that. Just a matter of time until whatever caused the atoms and energies to become clumpy and imperfect is going to do it again in some big or small way. There’s no beginning and end to the universe, which means that it has existed for an infinite amount of time, which also means that heat deaths have happened before

    Everything that can go wrong will go wrong. Everything has already happened and will always happen, over and over again in incomprehensible stretches of time that the human brain is not capable of quantifying

    One day you will be a green pigeon with legs made of beans, who is the president of basketball planet. Everything has happened before and will happen again, just like anything ever

    If nonexistence was temporary before birth, surely it won’t be temporary after birth

    Yeah it’ll be a hella long time before your mind molecules come together again, sure

    But you won’t feel how long it was. You’ll just be born again with a new and different existence

    Time goes to infinity, which means that there is a 100% chance of it happening again in any given amount of time
