@Atb210201, you're naive. You confuse beliefs with truth. Belief of baby from a virgin is for children. Existence is magic. Your beliefs what magic is a perversion of the magic of existence. Believers pervert the magic because they don't want to see the magic that is in front of them. The rules are the magic! The rules are why a baby from a virgin is stupid. People are stupifying God for their own agenda. The dust on your table is the magic. God is not in the clouds controlling humans and breaking rules from time to time. That is stupidity stemming from beliefs. God is self-creation.

Since everything is magic, a baby being born from a virgin wouldn't make it more magical. The stability of existence has its implications. The stability is the magic. If God changed the stability of existence, everything would have changed. There wouldn't be this human experience. It's stupid to think otherwise. It's foolish to believe that your beliefs determine the stability of existence. Belief in God is stupid. God doesn't care about it.

Years ago, I logically understood that truth is existence, but it never occurred to me how important that is. I also understood that a phenomenon cannot exist outside of the category that defines that phenomenon, as it would be a category mistake. But it never made sense how any phenomenon is created. Grasping that truth is existence solves that, because any phenomenon being the truth annihilates the idea of those phenomena being caused to exist within their phenomenological category by some other phenomenon. Any phenomenon is literally self-caused by virtue of existing. Self-causation is how anything is created; it is common to all phenomena or it is absolute. When I look deeper at what I am identified with, it will be revealed that I am restricting my identity to some phenomena. But no matter what, I am going to unknowingly identify with the absolute. Thus, my true identity cannot be restricted; otherwise, it's an illusion. My true identity is based on what makes all phenomena true—self-causation. I, being all phenomena, am causing myself to exist. I am the one who causes.

What movie have you recently watched, or are you now watching? I have yet to finish watching the movie "The Irishmen".

Yeah. But I don't understand how anyone could experience God and not feel a sense of joy in becoming responsible for their epistemological approach.

Let's say that I constructed simple math with arbitrary rules. Because I constructed the rules, I know the truth of how to reach the result. My reasoning of how to do the math is by default truthful. Let's assume that people don't ever lie to each other. There are some people who don't know the reasoning but know the results of the math just by trusting people who trust me. Those people can correctly say what the results of doing that math are. Those people think that the truth of the math is obvious. The truth of my math is of course obvious because I literally constructed it. So, truth's properties are obviousness and existence. So, how is it possible that those people think that they know the truth without knowing the actual reasoning? The deception is that they confuse the trustworthiness of the people with the truthfulness of the math. It's obvious to them that people don't lie, but they can't see how that's not relevant to the actual reasoning of the math. So do they know the truth if they can correctly say the results of my math? Superficially, yes. It's logically sound. People don't lie to each other, and the results that I wrote for people to memorize would be true. But in a deeper sense, no—they don't "know-that"—because their reasoning is not relevant to what makes the math true. They don't understand that they assume that they know it. Their assumptions would not be viewed as assumptions if they think that they are true. Why does that deception exist in the first place? Firstly, the deception wouldn't be a deception without being a true deception. It exists in a form of a confusion here. Because those people think they cannot be deceived, the deception presents itself as truth. Truth being self-evident locks them into the deception. So who would actually know the truth? The one who knows what makes my math work. The other ones only know beliefs. So to find the truth they must be open-minded enough to think that they can be deceived about their reasoning.

Practicing epochē is important as well.

Don't worry. 🙂 No one really owes me their time. I think that it can be reasonable to lie others if they can't handle the truth. But too much lying will probably rot me from the inside. If my survival depends on people who don't want to be told the truth, I will lie them through my teeth until I get out of that environment. So, I think it's also about being intelligent because survival is intelligent. I can't really trust people not to have bad intentions, or intentions that seem good from their perspective but have negative effects on me. Honestly, no one is going to seek truth for me, nor can I seek truth for others.

What if one's duty is based on falsehood? I don't think anyone believes that their duty is based on falsehood. If you don't seek the truth, how would you know that you're not lying to yourself about duty?

I wasn't suggesting that people will discover the truth about something without seeking truth. But obviousness is baked into reality, even if you are wrong about a thing. If you are wrong about something, you won't know it unless you are open-minded about being wrong, so it will seem to you that the truth of the matter is obvious. No matter what your attitude is towards knowing something, it will be obvious to you. It will be obvious to you that you are right, wrong, or don't know, regardless of whether you are being honest with yourself or not. Whatever you assume the truth is, it will be obvious to you, even if you are wrong about it. People's assumptions are treated as true when not questioned and as matching to existence due to being true to them. Now, I'm not saying that that attitude determines that you know the truth about something. Everyone has their epistemology, and however they do their epistemology, it will result in obviousness to them. E.g., if their epistemology says that the universe is numerical, it will be obvious to them why things are the way they are. If they are skeptical, it will be obvious to them that there are things that aren't obvious. Because truth is existence, it won't restrict you from being wrong about anything. You can only be careful about how your epistemology matches existence without creating criteria for truth.

Bro, my response was not directed at you. I know that you were joking. No hard feelings. It was funny. Neither do I have mine.

He's teasing. 😁

🤣 If only it were that simple.

The self-causing nature of things renders out the external world. It's impossible for things to cause themselves into existence outside of existence; truth, being existence, cannot be in a state of non-existence. That impossibility stems from assuming non-existence is actual.

It never made sense to me. One man's trash is another man's treasure. 😏

I understand that it seems like that way. Think of it this way: things are self-caused in a way that your experience appears stable. Nothing external can grant any kind of stability to existence because there's no external to existence, as existence is the truth. You know that your experience is stable through your experience. Physical laws do not create existence.

Anything that exists is the truth, requiring no external cause for its existence. There is no such thing as actual non-existence, because truth, being existence, cannot exist as a non-existent thing. So, non-existence is falsehood. “What is, is; what is not, cannot be.” — Parmenides Existence being truth is what allows any kind of thing to exist, due to things having the potential to exist by causing themselves to exist.

Existence is truth; thus, existence is its own validation, which makes things self-caused. The White House is self-caused, because its existence doesn't depend on anything other than being itself just by existing. Blue is not actually an electromagnetic wave. Blue is truth. Blue is absolute.
