Yes. I’m making some distinctions to convey a point. Some perspectives would say that life is a part of existence. There are things that exist that don’t have “life”. But ofc an animist is gonna say that even a rock has “life”. That is the hard problem of consciousness. How can objects have subjective experience? What differentiates an object that we would say doesn’t have subjective experience such as a rock vs something that does such as a human.

@Leo Gura I was trying to use the atheist argument of life being an accident against itself. However, why does evolution exist and take millions of years? You would think that an infinite mind could just create something instantaneously rather than creating through evolution. I am assuming you are gonna reply with “evolution is imaginary”? I do think evolution is infinitely intelligent. But I can hear atheists saying the source of reality could be dumber than the creation in a similar way that humans create AI, an intelligence more intelligent than its creator. I hope this makes sense. Not that I agree with it but I know some atheists have made this argument that if humans can create something more intelligent than it, then it isn’t hard to conceive of god being dumber than its creation using that logic.

Thats identical to what I said. If it is beyond the world, it is outside the world.

Pantheism. Panentheism implies that God is outside of the Universe.

Not that I agree with the argument that reality is an accident, but I can’t help but entertain the atheist perspective of reality being an accident. Here’s a thought experiment: How long would it take for you to flip a coin on heads 50 times in a row? You see, life seems improbable because we are seeing it through a finite amount of time. But if you have eternity, I don’t see how it could be improbable for life. Eternity means that every permutation of reality is possible. You can flip a coin 50 times in a row on heads. It might take you 73767282818387473881827373 trillion years to do it, but you can do it and it would be as if no time has passed because eternity means no time. So, how could the creation of life not be like flipping a coin 50 times in a row? Of course, the issue with this argument is that for “accidents” to exist, there has to be Existence. Existence is a necessary condition for accidents to exist. Sure, it might take the Universe billions of billions of years just to develop humans capable of reasoning in a similar way that I could flip a coin 50 times in a row. But the fact is that existence exists. An atheist doesn’t understand that accidents and randomness are properties of Existence. I would argue that there can be no accidents given an infinite amount of time. Me flipping a coin 50 heads in a row is inevitable under the concept of eternity. The only thing limiting me in flipping a coin 50 times in a row is me having a limited amount of time. But if the Universe has unlimited time, then it is inevitable that life exists no matter how improbable it may seem.

@Leo Gura Thanks for the practical blog posts about daily products like spatulas

Conflating wisdom with foolishness is itself foolish.

Thanks for the share. This is basically the advice that Leo has been giving on dating. Masculine traits such as confidence and humor are essential in attracting women. Without them, it is very unlikely that she will want anything to do with you. Women expect men to embody masculine traits for the most part. Some are an exception and will take initiative and be less selective.

How do you distinguish between true vs false intuition?

Sex is just using another persons body to masturbate. Think about it. The other stuff ofc is emotional intimacy and not sex itself. What you’re really asking is if intimacy is better than self-pleasure.

Thanks guys. I’ve been shooting my Glock 19 for some time now and it is awesome! I love it! No need to buy another handgun.

I want to get out of Oklahoma in 2 years. I would like to live not too far from the ocean, mountains, and city life. I want some place with an abundance of outdoor adventure activities. Oregon seemed really beautiful. It just sucks that Portland is a shit hole. Seattle was amazing as well. I also loved the east coast when I went to DC, Philly, and NYC.

Fvck that. I want the black pill video!

Seattle was the coolest city I’ve been to. I was there when it wasn’t raining though.

I am thinking about moving in 2 years and want to still be a US Citizen and live in America.
