was it whilst you were being sexually molested?

Is there anything else you believe is real because you 'feel its presence' rather than actually having a sound reason that couldn't be argued with dismissed or disproved by others?

Is it that god is a trickster, and wants to hide, and only wants to welcome those who don't need evidence or reason to help them pick between the various cults, but will go with 'a feeling' to trust that the most popular religion in their area is the 'right' one?

Never stopped believing, just noticed how utterly retarded and controlling most world religions are and started to investigate, after a few year im now what youd call a gnostic with a touch of hermeticism.
It was enough to read about teh "golden age" of islam, it was enough seeing all the devil worship in vatican city through statues and art. I dont think any of the world religions has it remotely right, except maybe the hindus.

I was raised as Catholic but at around the age of 13, my religious beliefs stopped being important. It didn't help that my parents were non-practicing adherents. After falling out of religion I got into paranormal and spiritual shit, which I suppose was a filler for the void that moving away from religion had created. Eventually I realized how both religion and the non-religious beliefs seemed equally fantastical, in many ways inconsistent, but more importantly, too detached from the reality we live in. Now with the knowledge that any spiritual-like experiences can be induced by drugs, it's simply impossible for me to go back to holding any religious or spiritual beliefs. It's not that I actively oppose them, I simply question their validity, so I can't ever be faithful and loyal to them.

See ya all in hell, if there's one.

I think we live inside a matrix since our brains are not allowed to access the password protected thought of what came before the big bang or what created quarks, leptons and bosons. Hence there must be some kind of higher intelligence to keep us from escaping the matrix and becoming Gods ourselves. But then again. Who created the Gods that control us? There certainly has to be some form of intelligence behind the engineering of the universe and how it all works so perfectly.

>>
>>127836964
I've had that thought before and it's let to a few panic attacks. Just thinking how we are here in this universe with no apparent purpose, trapped in an ever-growing box with no edges, surrounded by senseless suffering, limited and guided by our biologies, and ultimately knowing that you can evaluate these thoughts but they don't get you any closer to really getting an answer for why we and everything around us exists, is absolutely emotionally devastating and existentially crushing. What's also disillusioning is knowing that getting old doesn't get us an answer either, but it only grants us a sort of blind acceptance and an actual welcoming for the end of our lives. Most of us don't even have control over that shit, we just behave that way because that's how the human brain responds. Fucking slaves to our biology.

I was an edgy atheist as a teenager just like everyone else. When I was ~18 it dawned on me that the big bang is a whacky concept, from nothingness came an explosion and everything started to be? That's just as absurd as a god creating the universe. I'm agnostic these days, the big bang and a God are both equally terrifying.

Do I think God would be a big human, loving, kind and logical? No. If anything I think it would be an incomprehensible being, operating on logic and motives we could never understand.

god is a concept based on duality.
animals can't believe in god because they can't think dualistic.
our brain are capable of thinking black and white, like thinking in terms of minus and plus.
minus infinite = black
plus infinite = white

but if you want colors, you have to step out of duality. which means you have to be conscious of what is, without thoughts.

religion is mind-control to keep you polarized and in a black and white world. religion comes from the latin word "religare" which means "being bound to something".

religion enslaves you.

i don't need atheism, because say "yes" or "no" to the question if a god exists, is dualistic.
>>
>>127838760
So you dont believe in a god then?
well thats the definition of atheism, while you might not need it, its what you have.

if i don't believe in god, you could also call it like this:
I believe there is no god.
which basically means again, that i BELIEVE something.

if you are only conscious, why would you ever ask yourself if there is a god?

it's all in the heads. religious people are living in their heads, it has nothing to do with spirituality, it's a thought-based dream world.
they don't even believe in god, they believe in the concept of god in their heads.

if you want to get out of duality, you have to go all the way in like e.g. Buddha

did Buddha ever say there is a god or there isn't a god? (i never heard of anything like that)

does god exist?
it's like asking me if i believe if white or black exists.
>>
>>127838357
The size thing doesn't bother me, plus any Gods could grant us the ability to understand everything around us. Really, the only thing that bothers me is that we are here. You are born, this is what you get, now accept that, and also accept that there are no answers to some of the questions that your brain comes up with. I'm just glad we get to be unconscious for 1/3rd of the day. Who knows if there's any respite after dying.

>>127838445
Because I can't accept the contradiction you presented. >Life is harsh, now find a way to enjoy it.
I have come to the conclusion that it comes down to being a pessimist or an optimist and that in itself is an inherited trait. Can I manipulate that to my benefit? To a degree, but most most psychological research has shown that forcing optimism results in misery.

I never had a problem with something supernatural that's responsible for what I perceive with my senses. There's a logical argument for it. What I have a problem with is believing that the Jewish tribal god, Satan, the devil or Lucifer is anything other than a (non-existent) Jewish tribal god.

wrong.

Not believing something does NOT mean you believe it to be false or that you believe the opposite to be true.
"There is a god" and "there is no god" are 2 different claims and we are only talking about the first one.
if you believe it, you are a theist if you do not you are an atheist, the second claim is IRRELEVANT.
Also not talking about duality, this is basic logic.

Im asking you to look at it in another way, i want you to chance your attitude, thats what its all about and your attitude is something you can affect.
You need to accept the face that you cant make all life have meaning and instead focus on giving YOUR life meaning, it sounds a bit selfish but once you are ok with death and all that you can just thinking about other people and eventually you will not bother making yourself miserable by constantly thinking about something you cant change and we all live with.

Do you make money without doing anything? Can you have any money without any past event, that gave you the money?
Can there exist a picture, if you didn't imagine and draw it?
If this is logical thinking for you, then answer me this question:
How can there be humans if nobody imagined and created them?
If it wasn't a creator, than it must have happened illogical, without any causes. Which basically means logic does not exist. Because something happened without a cause.
Yet there is still logic happening (like natural laws). But if natural laws happened out of nothingness (without a cause), wouldn't this mean you can suddenly have a large mansion without any causal factors?
And if the all is infinite, then causes don't even exist, because there was never a first cause. If the all is not infinite, what is outside the all?

I hope you get my point, non-duality is the only way out of this mess. Atheism is a box.

your analogy is foolish, since even the colors are binary states, or "yes" given wavelengths, and "no" all the others; setting aside pedantic arguments of colors as analogy rather than literal visible light spectrum.

Your own worldview is either self defeating, or poorly understood/communicated.

It ultimately comes down to whether or not dat ass is sticc, or thicc. Either/or. Not both/and. The answer reveals the nature of God.

dat ass is thicc.

>>127839767
I agree. All human misery comes down to the fact that we're never present in the now. We always dwell on something from the past or seek a future moment that we believe will fulfill us with eternal joy. It's no way to live. In this regard I favor stoicism. Accept that life will be painful at some point. Accept there will be shitty days. Accept that there will also be good days. Because how could there be beauty if there's no ugly? How could there be joy if there's no misery? Something to ponder about. Religion is mostly false hope. Like motivational gurus. They never tell you a lot of parts in life are gonna suck. I'm here to tell people the truth. Life sucks sometimes. But sometimes it doesn't. Cheers :)

The third logical absolute:
Law of Excluded Middle: A statement is either true or false, without a middle ground.

Is it true or false?

Note that saying it could be something else would be going against all logic.

I would agree that some things are not black and white, but this most certainly is.

God is an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance. Whatever it is that made you think God was real will be proven (one day or another) what it actually was, just like everything people thought God was to this date.
The only thing that makes God work is belief in it. The reality is that anybody who does believe in it is mentally weak and needs a crutch to understand the nature we live in.
Religion literally provides nothing humanity couldn't have done on it's own.
The sooner this childish dogma is given up the sooner humanity can evolve and grow.

Still don't believe in God because blind

>>
Any body who believes that God would punish you for eternity for something God already knew you were going to do is a cuck.

The concept of divine punishment only makes sense when its being peddled by evil people, furthering Satan's will, in order to control the weak.

If there is a god (and I've not learned anything to make me believe there is) he is irrelevant. He doesn't reward good people, he doesn't punish bad people, he doesn't protect the innocent or the weak, he doesn't intervene in human affairs in any way at all.

At best, god seems to be an anachronistic leftover from when man was first trying to understand the world around us. At worst, god is a formulation of man's devious attempts to manipulate other men. God is used as both the carrot and the stick, used to make people behave in ways societies deem appropriate.
