Is it possible for us to create a purpose?

[Gambit]

Self gratification is doing something because it makes you feel alive, actualized, and typically something you can very easily get lost in.

And?

Again, as a builder, why should I think such an arrangement is great? As someone who doesn't think living in an illusion would be great, why would I want that?

I used to be a builder myself until I've been retired of it for the past ten years. It's an awesome experience to hang out with friends and share stories, which is what we'll be doing in Paradise. Each one of us will have a different story to tell after experiencing new things in every vision.

 

[Shadow Wolf]

And?

That's about it. Self gratification means doing something purely for the sake of gratifying oneself.

Each one of us will have a different story to tell after experiencing new things in every vision.

But simulated experiences and visions are not Paradise, it is Hell. To only have a pretend life with pretend experiences is not something I find desirable.

There's a reason our Creator kills off all the characters in the first part of His program. Can you imagine talking people like yourself into the next age?

Is the "Creator" afraid we'll band together, start a Revolution, and take over?

Why would God be afraid of a computer program he designed and spoke into existence? That would be like a computer programmer of the Sims City game being afraid of the Sims characters in the game.

Because of things like The Terminator and The Matrix.

It's unbelievable how stupid our Creator made some of His people.

 

[ArtieE]

It's unbelievable how stupid our Creator made some of His people.

There's a reason they are called sheep and have to be provided with shepherds.

I find it unbelievable that anyone's concept of Paradise includes an eternal simulation.

 

[thevoiceofgod]

I

I find it unbelievable that anyone's concept of Paradise includes an eternal simulation.

It's our Creator's concept, not mine.

 

[McBell]

It's our Creator's concept, not mine.

now if that isn't a statement that reeks of arrogance, I don't know what is.

 

[Milton Platt]

What you are failing to understand is that the intention to create a purpose requires a higher purpose in order to account for the intention.

Why???

 

[Milton Platt]

What you are failing to understand is that the intention to create a purpose requires a higher purpose in order to account for the intention.

So, If there is a god, and he has a purpose, what was the higher purpose than god???

 

[thevoiceofgod]

now if that isn't a statement that reeks of arrogance, I don't know what is.

It's what our Creator put in my mind to write down. Are you calling Him arrogant?

 

[Milton Platt]

It's what our Creator put in my mind to write down. Are you calling Him arrogant?

No, he is calling you arrogant

 

[thevoiceofgod]

No, he is calling you arrogant

Through Satan, yes, but His voice knows the difference between the flesh and the spirit.

 

[Milton Platt]

Through Satan, yes, but His voice knows the difference between the flesh and the spirit.

Sorry but that statement is incomprehensible to me

 

[McBell]

It's what our Creator put in my mind to write down. Are you calling Him arrogant?

so you are yet another humble servant who claims to speak for god?
Appeal to authority only works if the audience agrees that the authority you appeal to is an authority.

Now, since I do not believe your imaginary friend is an authority....

 

[McBell]

Through Satan, yes, but His voice knows the difference between the flesh and the spirit.

you gonna have to fill in the missing parts for those of us who are not in the choir.
