It didn't matter back then since I was nonexistent. But now that I have come into existence, the idea of me no longer existing is horrible to me. It would be no different than if you never had a mother. Her not existing doesn't matter since she was never known. But for her to be known and...
I am a narcissist sociopath which means the only thing that matters to me is me being happy, getting what I want, and living forever with no misery and no suffering in my life. It would be a life all meant for me to be happy and enjoy. I wouldn't have to worry about any problems at all if such...
Nonetheless, it would still be the greatest insult and demeaning of me to have me forever rot and decay away like that. It would be such a great insult that it would drive me to violence. The person is what is important here over life itself.
So it is the person being honored and respected by...
The greatest possible life for me would be a life that is optimized for me. It would be a life where I can get anything I want. That would be the far greater life than this one. It would be a life in the distant future created through science.
But this life is all I have though. It is...
I don't view myself as more special than anyone else. But continuing on here. Most of us as human beings have an innate desire to continue surviving and to be happy (eternal bliss). It is the reason why so many people wish to believe in an eternal blissful afterlife and don't wish to die...
It's not about that, it is about me as a person here. To just have me decay and forever rot away is like just tossing me away like trash and that is demeaning. So it doesn't matter what legacy I leave behind for others, it is still demeaning of my value as a human being to have no eternal...
If I am special and have value as a human being, that creates a major conflict for me. This conflict would be that for such a special and valuable person as myself to just forever rot and decay away would be the greatest insult to my value and specialness as a human being.
It would be utterly...
I also live only for myself and my own pleasure. I have no desire to live for my family, the Lord, or anyone else. But I do help my family when they ask me to and I am nice towards them and towards other innocent people.
But for a God to condemn me to hell for living for myself would not be an...
It is said that the Natural Moral Law is written into our hearts so that we can instinctively know what is right and wrong. So even though I live only for my own pleasure which is considered a selfish sin in the bible, my natural instinct tells me that there is nothing wrong with this.
As long...
I am not Christian. I am agnostic and am open to any possibility. I am open to the possibility that the brain produces consciousness and that once you die, you are gone for good (materialism). I am also open to the possibility that you are a soul that survives death and that there is a heaven...
But all of that is just things being stated. I myself could state anything. I could state that there is a hell and that it is only temporary. That a sinner will remain there until he/she changes. Or I could state that there is no hell at all and that God has created a blissful paradise for...
So once the person who has lived a sinful life (for example, the homosexual I mentioned) and this person was sent to hell, then doesn't he/she have one last chance to get out of hell and be saved? Especially if he/she lived this sinful way of life, not knowing that it was sinful. Such a person...
The type of selfish person I am is not someone who takes from the poor or any other misdeed of the sort. I am just someone who sits in front of his computer and just lives to be happy and to enjoy his life and hobbies. I have no desire to help others or contribute to society. So that is the...
You can be selfish and kind at the same time. For example, I am someone who lives for my own happiness since I am a hedonist, but I am a kind and respectful person towards my family and other innocent people at the same time.
I am aware of what the Bible says about the wicked which is that if they do not accept Jesus and repent, they will go to eternal hell. But what about an innocent person who has lived a sinful life?
This person would be someone who lived a homosexual life or someone who lived a selfish life...
