Someone here

@Leo Gura so when are you going to ban this idiot called @EmptyInside ??

Imagine an atheist comes across a priest who tells them they shouldn't be. The priest's argument is as follows: "If you are a believer in God, and God exists, you will go to heaven. If you do not believe, you risk the possibility going to hell". Your earthly life is rather short. At the most, you will live a century. However, the afterlife is long, an eternity in fact. Therefore, you might as well invest your short earthly life as a believer, because if there is no God, you don't lose much time, but if there is a God, you gain an eternity in Heaven." Is the priest's gamble worth it? Does it seem convincing to consider becoming a believer? Now I know that most people here think that God is themselves. Not some old guy living up in the clouds . But have you actually awoken to the fact that you are God or are you just parroting ideology? You must be honest with yourself. Don't fuck with existential truths .get serious. And seek clarity.

A weird mix .I guess it makes sense cuz SD is just a model not a territory. I studied the model a lot for myself. And in the end you just gotta let go of it, cause reality is so vast that the model itself limits you. Don't think you just can slap a label on a country or a person and say that it's either blue, orange or green. It's just a mix of everything.

I agree. Nationalism has a disturbing history in our country. Also , Nationalism has a disturbing history in America. It is ingrained in American culture that their nation is the best in the world. In President Trump’s Fourth of July speech last year year, he praised the American Republic “as the greatest, most exceptional, and most virtuous nation in the history of the world.” Nationalist ideology begins in schools. Aside from repeating the pledge every morning, nationalism is fixed in public school curriculums. In history class, America is portrayed as the “good guy” that’s always on the right side of history. History curriculums often conveniently leave out the not so appealing parts of American history where their country wasn’t on the “right side.” I obviously want the same for Indian because I'm biased towards it . Do we have any maps or way of categorizing countries based upon their overall level of values development based on the model of Spiral Dynamics? I was just thinking about having clarification on this. For a few examples Places such as The United States, Canada, The United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, South Korea, etc all seem to be at a primarily stage orange level of development. However places such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, etc appear to be at a blue stage of Spiral Dynamics values development. I was wondering what stages the various countries of the world are at. Perhaps we could create a thread of where we think certain countries and regions would fall on the spiral. Red countries, blue countries, orange countries , green countries, etc. I'm not exactly sure where does India belong in the Spiral.

Comparing the growth rates of India and China is a pointless exercise. China’s growth rate has been consistently higher than India’s growth rate over the past three decades or so. India has barely overtaken the Chinese growth rate for a couple of quarters. Only if India can continue to beat the Chinese growth rate by a huge margin for the next two to three decades, does India stand a chance of overtaking the Chinese economy

I'm no expert on nutritions and fitness..this thread is just to share what worked for me personally to gain more muscle weight and becoming stronger. Two years ago..i was 45 kg!!..super skinny dude..like a fucking stick. So lethargic all the time. Now..im 25 yo..75 kg!!..more muscular and stronger than ever..without even going to the gym!!. Here is how I did it: 1 - stop fapping. I talked about it before. When you nut (especially too much) your body starts replenishing the lost semen by consuming nutritions from your vital organs. And that's why you feel weak and drained with a lifeless face if you are fapping all the time. It takes 30 days for sperm cells to fully mature..ejaculate more than twice a week and notice how your seminal fluid turns yellow and watery ..means there is low sperm count. Ejaculate less and notice how your semen turns white and creamy(thick)..means a lot of sperm . Fapping is really not worth it especially in young age. 2-eat the fucking meat!!. I don't care what vegans have to say..meat is the shit. High in protein which is the essential nutrition to growing muscle..without it..your muscles will simply not grow no matter how much time you spend working your ass out. You can get high quality natural protein only from the following resources :meat..eggs..milk..cheese. yes..plants and nuts also contain protein..but it's way lesser and lower in quality. Protein is not only one type. There is plenty of protein molecules with different names and values..the best are found in animal products. As a side note..if you don't eat these foods mentioned above..get ready for erectile dysfunction and loss of libido. Don't forget that masturbation is not the only cause of ED..your lifestyle playes a huge role. Not having a good diet consisting of meat is gonna turn you into a limp dick pussy. 3-sleep like a baby: in fact that's what my dad always say to me..sleep all you want when you are still young ..cuz when you grow up ..you won't be able to sleep. If you slept less than 8 hours last night..you are legally drunk !!. 4-excersie. Push ups are great. Pull ups. Cardio.liffting some heavy shit are essential to grow a strong physique. 5 -be a man of principle and honor. If you stand for nothing. You fall for anything and everything. Follow these rules: 1-don't give a flying shit about other's opinions on you. 2-always speak your heart . 3-never explain yourself . 4-be clear and straightforward in your talk. Don't beat around the bush. Don't half-ass stuff. 5-don't say fapping is ok in moderation kinda shit. 6-never follw a rules given to you by a random guy on the internet..unless you are convinced about them. Be a critical thinker mtfuckr

I like it even though you insulted me in the dating section few days ago lol But gotta admit it .I always enjoy your posts

@Loba what's your concept of God? Do you believe in the religious/Christian God or the nondual /eastern God?

I see . But do you agree that infinity itself is just one facet of reality/god/consciousness or it includes all other facets if there are any ? So we can't just say it's infinite. It's infinite in what ? In goodness, in presence, in power,in intelligence etc....

And finally I can actually understand a post from you

Which is why I find it difficult to accept any of these mainstream religions .because a loving God can't judge his own creation and throws it into Hell. It's as if he will throw himself into hell.

Not necessarily. We can still know that it's love, goodness ,all powerful, intelligent..and other such facets without affecting its unlimitedness.

You got it.

Fear of eternal punishment was and will always be a huge aspect of religions. Since we are not merely rational creatures. We are highly emotional as well .and religions use our emotions to make us follow them rather than providing pure rational evidence for the existence of God. What's interesting about pascal's wager though, is that it's both rational and emotional.

I like the way you've put it here .very straightforward without fooling around. I found this diagram online while researching this topic:

No worries. I get confused sometimes and I'm able to switch and jump between different paradigms . From now on ..All my posts will be high quality ?

Hey mate ..we have a journaling section.

Yeah I know .as if God will accept your faith if it comes from this sort of thinking. It's not a trustworthy God if he (it) works this way .

It is described in islam that God would compensate the shahid for sacrificing his life or his land. If you become a martyr, God will give you 70 virgins, 70 wives and everlasting happiness. Why is that ? Promises pussy in the hearafter seems twisted and uncomfortable for me . Since September 11, news stories have repeated the story of suicide bombers and their heavenly rewards, and equally Muslim scholars and Western apologists of Islam have repeated that suicide is forbidden in Islam. Suicide (qatlu nafsi-hi) is not referred to in the Koran but is indeed forbidden in the Traditions (Hadith in Arabic), which are the collected sayings and doings attributed to the Prophet and traced back to him through a series of putatively trustworthy witnesses. They include what was done in his presence that he did not forbid, and even the authoritative sayings and doings of his companions. Can someone explain to me the true version of islam ? @itachi uchiha Tagging you here since you have a good Islamic background.

No one fucking knows .stop asking pointless questions and get practical.

To survive. Not just physically .but as an ego .as a narrative of a human living in a world . That's the default. But you must know where to stop and revert back to assumptions. You see ..the assumption that you should be questioning assumptions is Itself an assumption, which is not questioned . Why do you think this assumption (that you are not God) exists in the first place?

@Kksd74628 what's wrong with assuming stuff without any proof ? We can't be free from all assumptions . You assume that the sun will rise tomorrow morning. You assume quite a lot. But if you cancel all assumptions you will cease to function in this world. So don't even pretend that you are free from assumption.

@Kksd74628 when are you coming back to reality bro??

If you're wondering about there is no night clubs in India (I'm Indian btw)... . 2 weeks ago I moved to Thailand. My main purpose was to get laid there. Thailand has very good night clubs and other such places with a lot of hookers. So I'm continuing my one girl per day challenge . So two days ago...something very weird happend .i was on a party with friends. And this hot girl kept flirting with me. I got really horny. I went to the bathroom and started stroking my dick. I stopped myself I felt weird fapping in a public bathroom wtf. I went home quickly ..i couldn't continue the party. I barely slept that night because I was overthinking what happened. Next day..i decided going to the same night club and having sex with some of the ladies. It wasn't even a night club..it was a local restaurant..with some hot chicks to attract people's attention. I went to a girl and asked her "how much for a blowjob?". I moved with her by my friend's car to a dark place behined the trees..where she finished me . I can't believe I did that. This is not my morals or my viewpoint on sexual interactions. It's all started with that girl in the first party who kept teasing me in annoying way. I'm not used to such situations tbh. Now. She works on a local restaurant close to be a night club. I spotted her. Probably most of the ladies their do such dirty things because they need money. I feel very ashamed and guilty. All I wanted is to have sexy times ..and now I feel guilty that I used this girl to gratify my sick needs.

You can't be kidding me ?
