/phi/ - Philosophy A board for pretentious debates on epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, metaphysics, and logic.

Apply them to anything: Science, sex, your mom's cooking. No topic is too sacred or profane.
Consider this your haven where being a self-righteous, over-analytical asshole is encouraged.

What isn't allowed:

1. /b/, /x/, or /rnb/. Go spew your unhinged rants elsewhere.
2. Brainless drivel. If you can’t string two coherent thoughts together, take it to Twitter X.
3. Claims without arguments. "Because I say so" or "because you're gay" doesn’t count as reasoning. Repeatedly trolling and bait replies without substance will be banned.

Global rules apply. No, you can’t argue your way out of a ban for being an idiot. Add to the conversation, don't detract from it.

This thread is for discussion of the validity of religion(s) and arguments for and against the existence of god/gods.

Any other new posts about this subject will be deleted, or locked and referred to this one.

New threads about religious concepts that play inside their own ruleset are allowed, and we kindly ask that you refrain from turning those well meaning threads into arguments about religion as a whole.

>As if children got to choose whether to be born to a family of billionaires in the USA or a family of paupers in Syria.
If those who remember their existence between 2 human lives are to be believed, children do have a choice, yes. Even if they aren't fully lucid.
So, if you spend your life hating american billionaires and idolizing syrian paupers, it might have the consequences you do not expect.

Apparently there is a strong aversion within the scientific community regarding how consciousness tends to go beyond regular cause and effect when you measure its influence on its surroundings. The materialistic interpretation of reality fails to explain why these unusual occurences exist and why you can never see a physical link between these events.

Are you convinced that there is only matter in this universe and nothing else?

Realistically, the reason gravity feels like it doesn't exist is because it's nothing more than an accounting mechanism. The more matter you create, the more negative potential energy you need to balance it out and so for all the energy that we encounter we have some amount of gravity just so that the universe could stress the fact that even or perhaps especially on the cosmic scale, you cannot have your cake and eat it too.

In Russia it's not gay to suck a cock of your superior. It's tra Anonymous 25/08/29(Fri)10:42 No. 16831 [Reply]

Semen is a bodily fluid and spermatozoid is basically a body (cell). So by swallowing semen of your superior as a Russian you are swallowing bodily fluid and eat body of your superior. Which is basically the same as Holly Communion. in Orthodox Church. In communion you drink bodily fluid (blood) and eat body of Jesus Christ who is your Lord. Lord is your superior.

So when privateer sucks cock of an officer and then swallows it's the same situation as during Holy Communion.
Therefore it's not gay as Holy Communion is not gay.

"Don't be afraid of the future; it doesn't include you: it only removes you." - M. "Spider" Cummings, 2001.

"Make a mix or make them mad[...] understand that the reason for the chase is your rent." - M. "Spider" Cummings, 1993.

"It's a desperate state— I find— when you're holding up the peace... [you] signed your name to the contract to get yourself some combat[...] [y]ou've got a choice: much due respect or beat into submission[...]" - M. "Spider" Cummings, 1994.

"[I]t's all for one[... b]lood in the streets (of downtown Tokyo,) but the prayers of the weak get answered like a shot[: a t]est of the body, test of the mind; the future's on time[, ...]the future's unkind." - M. "Spider" Cummings, 1995.

"When you've lost your head[, you're] hanging on to the last worn thread." - M. "Spider" Cummings, 2006.

I hope y'all enjoy the wisdom from potentially the greatest philosopher of the "21st century killing machine" (M. "Spider" Cummings, 2001) and can take some lessons from his marvelous experiences that he so eloquently describes to us.

Dear 7chan ,

I finished my second manuscript in record time . It is actually revolutionary , and as such no one is allowed to read it unless I am handsomely rewarded . The leviathan that is threads is safeguarding it . I just happen to have a great trust in this leviathan and as such am not worried , for I doubt even a Mr zuck is capable of accessing my work either actually or figuratively and that coincidence being both factive and meaningful and distinctly and totally and partly so is exactly what my book is about , explains , and proves over and over and over again , kind of like how blind people don’t immediately assign felt gestalts to visual gestalts upon receiving sight , my book will blow not people’s minds into a new sense of gestalting and that’s both a joke and a prediction , which I know with much certainty to be quite possibly factive possibly —- but enough modal jokes and zauberbergian as published in English by those people in turkey references post side : i don’t present to any of you my second philosophy !

Bests ,

The author

It has been two years now since . I am being told my work is downloaded practically-always daily , yet who downloaded i do not know . I can comfortably say i do not artificially inflate the download metrics . And since i have not been contacted in response to my work , I have no idea who my readership is . I do not paywall my work and my work is good , so there are no borrowings or sales . I have not given out physical copies for anything i've written . So the metrics for each work is the metric for that work , except that's not true for MP::WiP , which was removed as its own selfstanding work by someone unknown who wrongly recategorized it as an earlier-version to an entirely different work that I finished way before beginning the writing portion for MP::WiP , which was at 49 downloads but now shows 8 downloads .

I will say i don't particularly enjoy philosophy nor do i have a desire to fervently read and write , but I seem to have no option but to do so . It is not a lofty pursuit for me nor has it been . I do not come from money nor have i been given enough means for a respectable life , which I do actually believe is odd . It seems I simply have not had given to me what has been expected by everyone else to be given to someone by someone else at some time or another . So , I can't really do much else realistically besides be given some offer . My living conditions do not provide adequate quality for any wfh . I also have no real choice but to live in a place far away from businesses or commuter parking meaning also reasonable bus , which goes into a city that doesn't seem to ever want to hire me , but where I also don't apply to work any factory job as I am differently qualified , nor to any nearish-by various corporate outposts because I could not afford to commute daily nor do I have any experience that would make me any more desirable than someone who seems to be able to afford to live near any such place .

Because I am indebted to the federal government for my specific academic education , I can't exactly justify obtaining a different formal education or training more-so than i have already . I have been rejected from a second-bachelor's degree program in a different but kind thus equal different university . I have not the money to take LSATs until i'm a super-splitter . I have also no money for any specific certification to perform some specific work , which leads me to try to firstly make what education I already have be valuable , which I am here doing still .

For example — although this thread should not be limited to them — I was thinking about the hikikomori. Don't they resemble monks in their seclusion? Is there something to this? Discuss.

Asceticism can be considered a method within hedonism, since it can lead to greater and more refined pleasure.

I mean, "real" is the term we use to distinguish things that exist for everyone from things that only exist in your mind. So, yes, if you think that only "Being" is real, then you really are crazy.
