Instead of constantly creating new topics like I have, I will instead keep what I am saying bound to their relevant topics. The only time I will create a new topic here on in would be if what I have to say is entirely new. But anyway, what I would like to say here is that If I believed in an...
I am a very open minded person and consider all possibilities. I am open to the possibility of a God and an afterlife. I am also open to the possibility that this God could be one who demands and expects that I obey and serve him or that I would be condemned to a horrible afterlife. I have...
Because my good feelings are the only experiences that give my life value, worth, joy, happiness, beauty, etc. and I really hope that there is an eternal blissful afterlife for me after I die where I can have these good feelings all I want and get anything I desire.
The subject of life after death is a very important subject to me and it is, therefore, vital to me that I come to the right conclusion as to whether there is life after death, the paranormal, etc. or not. This would come about through researching into everything I possibly can on this topic...
If there is an all knowing, all loving, all just, and perfect God, then there is no excuse as to why his universe and his human creations should not be perfect. If they are imperfect, then it clearly stands that God would have to be equivalent to a flawed and careless engineer. If his human...
I think God loves animals more than humans and I am going to explain why. Animals are free to live as they want. They are not held under the law and are not condemned for sin. They are immediately welcome into God's heavenly kingdom after they die. However, humans are condemned and they are...
I will talk about the claimed love and justice of the Christian God and other religious based Gods like him. If someone was very kind and altruistic and was cast out into hell on judgment day since this individual did not obey God's commandments and/or did not believe in him, then to say that...
Could it be that this enhanced brain activity allows them to pick up on subtle cues and that these mediums are still frauds who don't need to ask much questions at all? The mediums you claim are not frauds could just simply be mediums with a much higher sense of intuition who can pick up on...
I am the decider of my own life here. If I don't want to live a life in which I struggle with depression or anhedonia and I can't seem to recover these good feelings back to me within a reasonable time frame, then I have no obligation to remain in this life and live a way of life I have no...
Who I am as a person does not give my life any value or worth. It doesn't matter how strong, how developed/undeveloped I am, how weak, how cowardly, or how brave I am. All that matters is that I feel good for all eternity and get whatever I want for eternity. I am aware of spiritual beliefs...
The ego never wishes to die and hates to die. That is the reason why I find value in both humanity and life only through living forever in eternal bliss.
Special from a personal value standpoint. I think that is a given. If you are a very kind and respectful person, then I think it is obvious to say that you are a special (great and beautiful) person. But where that value all gets taken away is when the point I have made gets introduced and...
In order for a human based value to be established, then it cannot have any relationship to things such as roses or a car which are things that will rot, rust, and decay away one day and that be the end of them. If it has any relationship, then that makes any value claim of a human being not a...
The real value we have as human beings would be the idea that we are beautiful people due to who we are as individuals. This value gets taken away when it gets clashed with the "rose" based value.
Go ahead and respond to my previous post I have just recently made because I think it is important for you and others to respond to as well. It actually summarizes my worldview in a way.
Actually, with a beautiful rose, I can find value in that rose even though it will decay away one day. But when it comes to a human being, then this person cannot be like a rose which would solely be a nature-based thing that will forever rot and decay away one day. This is because that takes...
I judge the value of a human being on a different basis than who they are as a person. As long as they are just mere biological organisms and material that will just rot and decay away one day, then that child has no beauty or any value. Also, we really are insignificant trash in the grand...
When I, for example, experience depression (hopelessness) and misery due to a traumatic life event, then it being the most horrible quality of experience for me is a literal statement here. The word "horrible" does not seem like a value judgment (label) at all being applied to this experience...
