You're not not-knowing when you use such labels: infinite, senseless, purposeless, pointless etc.. You're just knowing in a different kind of way. With thoughts. Yet, the word 'infinite' seems to be doing a good job pinning it down. Unknow what? And how? And why?

The moment you say subjective is the moment you create the objective in your mind.

How do you know?

The alleged paradise/heaven is some magical place that good people go to after they die and meet God. That's according to ancient Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. If you ask new-age spiritual people, they will tell you that it's right here and now and most likely they will deny the existence of hell.

Incredible, incomprehensible, mysterious, etc... are also just labels. Reality is also mundane, ordinary, obvious, etc... Half of the picture is not the whole picture.

Ultimate reality is the same as ordinary reality. It's not good or bad or neutral. But it can be any of them in various degrees and depths. Reality is what it is. Descriptions are just descriptions. Love is love. Suffering is suffering. A tree is a tree. I am myself. Everything is everything. Etc...

@molosku I thought it was love. My bad.

@RedLine Dude it's as if you're speaking for me. You'll probably be faced with so much gaslighting and not many will even bother try to understand what you're saying but you're on the right track.

I can't. Lol Those who want me to stop expressing myself should stop doing that.

You're confusing the absolute and relative here. What you said may be true in the relative sense, but not in the absolute sense.

Why does the bully in school bully other students?

@RedLine Correct.

Feminism.

Modern society idolizes women and worships them and put them on a pedestal. Most guys naturally grow thinking that they are not good enough to be able to talk to women. Hence the anxiety and social awkwardness. Most guys when interacting with women, they're focused on the sex part only, and therefore they are anxious and come off awkward. If guys were able to see women as human beings just like they are, there wouldn't be that much of the problem. It's entirely the media's and society's fault. They raise dysfunctional males and then let them suffer the consequences. Unfortunately, males are not alone in this because guess what, women suffer too from the social awkwardness of men. Men become creeps and that's very unappealing to women so they become highly selective and guys start forming complexes. Hence, the whole pick-up industry.

Reckless! Lol

If you gave a kid infinite power and immortality, guess what the kid would do.

May I ask you about your lifestyle?

@28 cm unbuffed thank you. I have all that into place, although I forget from time to time. Yet here I am without motivation, and that's not a bad thing and I'm not pissed off nor suffering. I take all that with acceptance. Yet here I am and nothing is changing. I have a severe traumatic past so that may be the cause. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this trying to understand it. We'll see where things go.

You can't say it's horseshit as long as it has consequences. A thing is only horseshit when it's completely useless, and even horseshit isn't completely useless since it may be used as a fertilizer. Maybe "wrong" is what you mean by "horseshit". But even then that would be misleading and actually wrong since "wrong" implies that whatever consequences suggested must be wrong. So basically you're contradicting yourself.

Sure. I always prefer an empty mind with nothing to focus on. And now we're back on track, because an empty mind does not generate motivation. How can I convince myself to change this preference? I don't fucking know!

@28 cm unbuffed I am talking about the real actual physical death. Not the death of the ego-mind. Ego-death, while interesting, is still something that occurs in the dream. I am talking about the end of the dream once and for all without return.

Let me rephrase your question: If God is all loving and powerful then how could it allow even the least amounts of suffering, pain and misery in the world? Can't it just let everyone be happy and in love and harmony all the time? If it can't, then why insist on it being all loving and powerful? Can't God create a perfect utopian world? In theory it could, yet in practice it didn't. Why? Probably because God is a little kid playing some kind of video game.

You don't understand. First of all, that's a very slow and painful way to die. Secondly, I couldn't do that even if I wanted to because I live with my family so they would force food and water on me. Thirdly, that would be suicide. Fourthly, I am in fact content with my life as it is and I am flowing with it. Maybe you got the wrong impression but I don't hate my life and I don't passionately love it either. I don't feel any emotion in particular towards life. It's neutral to me. Death, on the other hand, is something new and mysterious, and therefore interesting to me.

@28 cm unbuffed for me it's the lack of death. Tbh I am eagerly waiting for my death to come but it's not happening. Not that I'm suicidal, not at all. I rarely have any suicidal thoughts and I've never felt the need to act on them. See, I don't even have enough motivation to go about seeking death. I just want death to occur to me on its own. I am already dead so to speak.

It's misleading to think that the materialistic paradigm is flawed. It is rather limited/partial than flawed I would say.
