Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

How can you, as a dreaming individual, not believe in the afterlife? It's been said that DMT is released in minute doses when we dream, and that it's released in comparably larger doses when we die.

Ignoring the science of the subject, let's look at it objectively. When you sleep, you're experiencing the closest thing to death without actually dying. And when you sleep, you enter a world of strangeness and symbolism.

If all of this is true, how can you continue to deny the existence of an afterlife?

Please please stop this meme, you are discrediting the good name of dmt and the science around its study, turning it into a field day for charlatans, and causing many to dismiss the whole psychedelic experience as hogwash. There is zero evidence to suggest that dmt is involved in dreams or near-death experiences even though dmt itself can induce near-death experience.

They do, they just don't know they're doing it. They are called habits, addictions, longterm fantasies, fetishes, etc.

>>1846824

Can't say one way or another really.

I'm sure there are some of those corrupt scum-fucks that think they have magical powers or some shit but honestly I think most of the occult associations, muh illuminati, etc, is projection of unconscious fears from the common man on the secrecy of the whole affair

I have seen some interesting quotes from the Tao te Ching. I downloaded a PDF of it, is it worth reading? What is some essential background on it to understand before reading?

it's short AF so you should read it.
I'd read a couple different translations of it to intuit the meaning tho.

the only background you need is that its about some old fuck who advises the emperor wants to GTFO so he scribbles some shit down b4 he goes desu...
>he's like diogenes but not an asshole
>pic related.
Taoism is basically Zen Buddhism but with more buttfucking and quack medicine. it's pretty gr8.

Background is helpful to understand some of the ideas present. If you can find it, the Penguin Classics version has a whole shitload of footnotes. Since reading multiple translations is recommended, I recommend finding it afterwards and reading all its introductions and such.

ITT: How to use Gospel teachings to help enhance your reality, practically.

Today's Gospel is Luke 12:54-59.


>"When you see a cloud rising in the west you say immediately that it is going to rain–and so it does;
>and when you notice that the wind is blowing from the south you say that it is going to be hot--and so it is.
>You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky;
why do you not know how to interpret the present time?
Why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?
If you are to go with your opponent before a judge, make an effort to settle the matter on the way; otherwise your opponent will turn you over to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the constable, and the constable throw you into prison.
>I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last penny."

The bold text in the Scripture above is the focus. It is not just a shout out to the Pharisees, but to all of us who can interpret the signs, but can't interpret the Signs. We block ourselves off from enlightenment and its revelations. The signs we rehearse are dull and repetitive. How many of you realize this too?

>…51Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.52From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.

The division is to separate the good crop from the bad weeds. The house is the internet, 2 against 3 and 3 against 2, would be the idea that people come on here to argue with no intention of resolve.

The present time is now, and we forget this. We bring up every misdeed of every organization, religious or political. Instead of intending to learn more or resolve issues; people have decided to mock each other and waste their time.

When it is mentioned that one can judge for one's self, they are told not to judge for themselves. Many non-believers say "your book does not let you think for yourself" when on the contrary, scriptures tell you to apply yourself. Many believers say to other believers "you are not allowed to judge for yourself, God will punish you, my organized religion says so", without realizing that everyone has a relationship to God the Father in their own self.

God will face each of us personally. No longer do we need someone else to tell us "what God says", at least in the sense that many of you have been deceived by believers and non-believers. I would be a hypocrite if I didn't tell you I also used to be one of those people who spent all day "condemning in God's name" and "making people feel so dumb for believing in God's name"

Helping the poor in knowledge; helping the poor in money; poverty is not always financial, poverty often is mental and spiritual.

Using derogatory labels to discredit a people, for the sake of a stereotype is cause for disharmony. This place could be great for learning when people drop their prejudice.

It boggles my mind that people all over the world (ESPECIALLY in the U.S.) think that classical liberalism is the answer to all of our governmental and societal problems. I don't think a market economy (with laws against monopolies/high taxes on CEO's/strong workers rights, etc) is necessarily a bad thing. The free market has been responsible for plenty of technological innovation, and many marxist forms of government fucking suck at allocation of luxury resources. However, history has clearly proven that a laissez faire economy with no workers laws is not beneficial for 95%+ of the general population. As soon as western countries began implementing labor laws that were more ethical, all the manufactures, big wigs, etc. just moved their production elsewhere to exploit other labor forces. What makes anyone think these same manufactures wouldn't come back and continue to rape the poor again if labor laws like minimum wage, children not being allowed to work, etc. were repealed.

Furthermore, the 'perfect' liberal utopia that Locke envisioned, the 'commonwealth', has yet to come to fruition because, if anything, liberalism benefits those who help themselves a helluva lot more than those in the immediate community. Locke was even dumb enough to believe that adopting a Republican form of government with a constitution and without monarchs/nobility would have prevented power from being passed down hereditarily, which obviously hasn't fucking happened. John Mill's harm principle/Ayn Rand's NAP makes absolutely no sense, either. Both of these principles are based around physical violence or personal property theft only; so paying your laborers unlivable salaries and making them work obscene hours in a disease ridden factory somehow isn't 'harmful' according to John Mill or Rand, but punching the factory owner in the face for depriving you of basic human rights somehow is.

The only reason people on the internet (esp. imageboards) seem to be so supportive of classical liberalism is because they have feudalistic delusions/fantasies that place them as being some kind of king or baron with a significant amount of capital that they can use to basically make people slaves.

All Chr*stcucks are idolatrous Pagans, thanks to Paul.

Pauline Christians are just gentiles blaspheming the one true God.

True Catholicism means Universal. God is Universal, therefore the word Catholic is pretty much an accurate description of any religion, however;

>>1851582
Catholic means Universal.

Roman Catholic means Roman Universal, which contradicts itself; Constantine's conversion isn't to Christianity, but Roman Paganism under the guise of Christianity, where the Emperor is deified, so is the Pope. Change the word Roman Empire to Roman Church.

>>1851654
You misunderstood Paul who works very hard to show us that Jesus is Lord. Pauline Christianity is a meme, just a phrase, because Paul takes not credit to be the Saviour, rather Paul and the Apostles make it their mission to tell the Jews and Gentiles that Jesus is the Messiah that all of them were waiting for.

The main accusation is that the gods became the saints, and that the Sabbath Day (Saturday) was changed to Sunday, the day of the Sun. This would not be so bad, but there is a Dark Age Church, that used the "authority" of the Vatican to do great evil.
