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.

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?

The ramifications of this is quite astonishing. Space is irrelevant in terms of effect but it also means that it doesn't have to be only one kind of crystal. It could be any molecule or atom. As far as we know some distant force can create matter out of thin air.

The facts are simple after you see all the evidence afterlife can not exist after brain death there is nothing.

Everything else is word games.
1) Memories and personality are destroyed after the brain gets damaged
2) This happens from injuries to the brain or old age (alzheimer's)
3) Therefore destroying the brain destroys your mind.

Anyone who disagrees with this line of reasoning has no basis to conclude that fire exists or will happen after you light up wood or oil.
<Dude that is a logical fallacy correlation is not causation!

Yet you committed the argumentum ad logicam logical fallacy (nice self contradiction) yourself right now and you still accept that fire exists and will burn flammable things(nice self contradiction/schizophrenia).

Super insane godzilla gods can only tell the truth either because they are dinosaurs.

They don't live in an alternate dimension of death, it's that the moon actually turned blood red, yes it physically changed color it's not just that you went insane and it looked like the stars fell and everything turned black because your eyes are deceived because you are the living dead.

Stoicism is just the pretentious male version of "empathy".

Also, glorification of suffering is shallow.
I notice that people who romanticise suffering often are ignorant of real life people going through problems

They think life is exactly like action adventure movies

>the stoics put heavy focus on dedication, honest hard work, mastery of pleasure and pain, moderation, balance, stability, honorable conduct etc. So basically anti hedonism and anti sensationalism which attributes to stoicism not being some kind of self help bullshit but a wake up call for pulling your shit together and mental fortitude which is extremely manly because men are natural sources of strength and stability.

In theory
In reality, this is just being human in general.
Women often have to work long hours and still go home to make dinner for the kids

Also, "anti hedonism" is often used to morally harass/guilt trip men for having any form of recreation.

Because it is possible to be born,
and because there are so many births,
nothingness is unlikely to follow death,
but rather a potentially perpetual series of lives.
Because of this potentially perpetual series of lives,
the peace of blissful nothingness is unlikely
to follow death, but, rather, more life.
If the peace of non-existence does not follow death,
but more life, then we can only be certain to have peace
in life, in a given incarnation.
Although not true in a pure sense without alternative,

Jacob’s Ladder:
Probability of Human Birth /
Buddhist Proverb of the Turtle
There is a classic Buddhist proverb which says that the likelihood of being incarnated in a human birth is
the same as the likelihood of a Turtle sticking its head out of the water and coming up through a log with
a hole in it. Using our equation and working backwards,
Earth’s Oceans have 333.42 million km squared surface area. If a log with half meter hole is on that
surface the probability of coming up in that section is 1/6,668,400,000,000,000
Human population is over 8 billion, meaning for this estimate to be accurate there would need to be
6.6684^11 non human beings for every human or 5.33472^20 non human beings (either total or on Earth
depending on what the proverb refers to).
Estimates for bacteria alone are around 5x10^30 to 13x10^35. Estimates for the number of species on

Women are naturally attracted to men because we're fearless compared to them. The problem is when she gets too many offers so she thinks masculinity is abundant, but gets rekt emotionally by Chad. So she can't admit he never cared. Instead she's left chasing the dragon for the rest of her life. Trying to appeal through sex mostly to the next Chad (that's what got her through the door the first time). Why? Because she can't get the thought that she wasn't good enough out of her head (she's clueless, for all she knows, he was the big man, the man's man). "If he's not toxic, he won't help me prove I'm worthy of Chad". In the process she'll destroy her sweetness and anything of real value that was there. And she's not the one to blame either. She can't help but think that the one who rejected her is on his mission and the greatest man. It's the Chad's fault for being a piece of shit yet convincing the girl he is God.

The reason you can't blame the girl is because to them we all look fearless. She just doesn't know any better. Who's the real man and who's not. They can't tell, because they are nowhere near. Best they can judge is if he appears dominant in the group.

Spoiler: some of them are born already ruined, don't beat yourself up fellas. But you know you have all seen a really cute and sweet and beautiful girl turn into an abomination. All too early. It's not her fault. She doesn't know any better.

And to the still non ruined ones but already on their way, all I can say is that you think you have all the power, but you have none, because you lack the understanding and the judgment to recognize actual masculinity the embodiment of which is adventure spirit and having other people's backs, not some fake fakery bullshit. The embodiment of true femininity is selflessness and support of the man/community. So yeah ik you're awash in resources and attention and whatnot, but it leads nowhere but swamp. You have a strong illusion of power. God bless. But you're lucky if you get as much as attention from a real down to Earth big heart nigga with balls of steel. Oh well. More circus for all of us.

Blue Pill

You know what is the real blue pill male sexuality? Still believing (early childhood circumstances made it seem like that's the obvious conclusion to make, because of how impactful these experiences... these females - were compared to most or just about anything else you may have likely encountered)... still believing that a physical human woman is your connection to the mysterious feminine. Not just your connection to it, but the extent to which it goes. Both of those are highly erroneous assumptions, ESPECIALLY the latter. But it makes for a very special kind of relation towards the sexual romantic interest.. extremely pure. extremely naive, but extremely pure. And the illusion could be maintained for a while. If the girl at least was someone like Zero Two. But of course she isn't gonna be.
Nor should she be. No heart worth it's salt should be submissive to that extent towards anyone. And they are hearts, just like we - even if on average 10x more boring, 10x less true (to their own core(zon)).

It's fine to play the game of "I'll propagate the electric field while you propagate the magnetic field" for a while with someone, but ultimately the only reason we interact with anyone - is because they resonate, their core resonates with ours. The only love is the love of and for - a brother. In my country we even have a saying: "Tikra meilė tik tarp vyrų"...

We sometimes have the illusion that just because a totem is speaking of heights we only encounter in our dreams - there must be then inside the one possessing or wielding that totem - an equal amount of something of the same substance that the totem itself represents. But this isn't necessarily the case (universally NOT the case on this planet). It's not something given out freely or without an actual hero's journey to everyone... A toddler isn't born with what makes a man a monument, an inspiration.
She's only wearing it, for right now, your INSANE dedication and desire to sell your soul is to what the totem represents, not the being who was given the totem to wear and even probably then convinced themselves it was afforded to them out of their own merit... "Oh yeah, I affect men this way because **I** am this awesome - obviously"...

And then folks wonder why niggers like them underage in this cracked and broken down fucking society lol

The problem is, men have no self value. They throw it away for women too much.
Are you familiar with LeftyPol? Those guys are auto-misandrists or borderline misogynists, all because they think their pyshcosedual hangup about relationships is true.
