We tend to think of ourselves as the creation, not the creators

 

[The Question]

If I had to put a label on how I see it, it would be cosmotheism. Not the version that got appropriated by shitheads to excuse villainy, but the original idea. The creator *became* the creation. God isn't separate from us; we're *living in it.*

 

[MANCID RILKO]

@Mr. Wednesday you're definitely on the right path

 

[Alticus]

We'll just have to agree to disagree here guys.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

Morphic fields should be something better understood

 

[Joe]

I worship Nature myself @RANCIDMILKO ™ ®© .

 

[The Question]

It's why humans have (very likely) felt the presence of the divine before humans had written language. That innate belief eventually got seized on, yoked up, and twisted by greedy, power-hungry charlatans who cooked up a framework to use that belief to enrich and empower themselves at their brothers' and sisters' expense.

 

[Joe]

After that all other religions even the most advanced technologies are subservient to it & its laws.

 

[Alticus]

I've just realized that religious discussion is a good way to clear the shoutbox of most members. lol

 

[The Question]

lol hell yes.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

@Joe nothing wrong with that, but remember, worship yourself too. Not in a proud or prepotent way, but by understanding your true essence

 

[Alticus]

lol

You guys take care, I got leftover pizza to eat. God bless :)

 

[The Question]

Om dem nomz!

 

[Alticus]

[Joe]

I believe in some Spiritual World @Mr. Wednesday. However I dont like the idea that it's a commodity which can be bought & sold.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

See you later, Alticus

 

[Alticus]

Be well guys.

 

[The Question]

@Joe Same. Any god that can get cockblocked by gatekeepers in silly-ass hats is not a god I'm impressed enough by to worship.

 

[Joe]

I like to think we can escape the riff raff & greed of our material world & the banks don't chase us in the afterlife for 1 more bill to pay. lol.

 

[Joe]

or taxes to pay.

 

[Joe]

I hope the afterlife is a place where people can escape greedy opportunists in our material world.

 

[The Question]

I don't think there is an afterlife, as religious or mythological traditions describe one.

 

[Joe]

We also need a place where truth reigns & we're not monitored by surveillance, AI & governments.

 

[Joe]

I truly hope there's a place where they don't follow us there.

 

[Joe]

and those apparatuses & the ones who control it get stuffed the Devil's trash can.

 

[Joe]

maybe theres a place where Windows 11 ends up in 11. lol

 

[The Question]

I think that what happens after a person dies is... that's the end of that person. Identity is bound to the neural pathways of the brain and the electrical energy following them. When those pathways are gone... that identity is gone. The energy remains and dissipates back into the environment. After I die, the energy that forms me now will still exist. It may even (on a scale of probability next to nil) all reconverge into a human being again, eventually. But that human being will not be 'me'.

 

[Joe]

That would please @RANCIDMILKO ™ ®© . lol

 

[The Question]

Heh... there you go. Reincarnation both is, and is not, real.
