@Hojo, If you noticed, Leo called his recent awakening Alien. Maybe there's someone who calls it differently.

@Hojo, what I'm saying is that you, as an atheist, had attributed things to the word God unknowingly back then. You can't say I'm not Hojo, therefore I'm God, without knowing the word God and your definition of it. Maybe you took the word God and gave meaning to it that describes your situation.

Why can't you use your name instead of the word God if you are the creator of reality? Why not just change what your name points to? Why did you choose the word God?

@Hojo, thanks for sharing your experience. But still, why did you choose the word God? Did you choose it because you saw that the definition of God in dictionaries fully described your experience? Or did you use it because you have attributed the word God to a thing that is unexplainable or undescribable?

@gettoefl, I don't even assume that you know what God is. If everyone knew what God is, then why are we even trying to know? Most people's approach to knowledge is based on belief. Different languages have different words for God. Also, those words changed over time. When someone is talking about God, it doesn't mean they know it. However, there is a difference in how people talk about it, which makes me more interested in what they say.

@Hojo, how would you describe God if spirituality wasn't a thing yet, or if you were the first human to realize it?

What makes the word God different than other words?

@Hojo, let's say you haven't learned the word God. How would you describe it?

If I'm God and God is everything, then what are they?

Just to be clear, I don't know the God that God realized people are talking about. I don't care about people who believe what God is and other people who say that those who are God realized and those who believe are talking about the same thing. I understand that there is a difference in how people approach knowing things.

@Staples, I understand you know God and imply they are both God. If everything is God, then why even use the word God? Aren't other words enough? However, I see that God realized people wouldn't say that other words are enough.

I'm just interested, even if I can't realize right now, why and when do you call yourself God or say it exists? If I didn't know the word God, could I even realize it? It's interesting why and how people can believe in it without knowing it.

@Davino, ok, I'll wait.

@Staples, then, why is there a conflict between people who say God exists with ones who say it doesn't exist, if we think they're not talking about beliefs?

If that were enough, then everyone would have realized God. However, we see that people are full of beliefs that make them think they know God. First, why the word God is used? You use it to convey something that is different than other spiritual things. If not, then why do you use the word God? Second, what kind of connections are enough and needed for someone to realize God? If God exists, then there should be some kind of connection between me and God. Remember, I don't know what God is when I use it.

This is amazing! I was unaware that Mussolini was a socialist before becoming a fascist. The fact that Hitler treated the public like he treated women says much. Mixing your personal life with politics can easily turn ugly and delusional. There are similarities between now and then. The far left and right aren't so different in their thinking, I guess. Although fascists focused more on spreading the feeling that unjustice happened to the people than addressing people's actual situation.

@manuel bon, why unfortunately? Do you think communism would have been good for all?

@manuel bon, oh, thanks for correcting.

@manuel bon, he mentioned the Spanish one in the video that I shared in the following thread: How World War 2 Began - Ryan Chapman

And they say that philosophy is just "abstract" nonsense. His YouTube channel is of high quality.

Why can't we close our own threads? Does this forum have that feature that could be enabled later?

Well, maybe you think your questions are answered or there's nothing to say and you don't want to ask the moderators always to close it. And maybe you want it to be available for different reasons. I agree that they should have the control. I meant that I could have more control over my thread, not others', even though the mods will always have the final say. But it is what it is. This is your forum. It's not that we don't have some control.

That's such an easy thing to say. You can't escape from surviving unless you kill yourself physically. Why not say you care about the truth, but you also care about survival?

Maybe Trump should not be tough on crime after all.

@Keryo Koffa and @Davino, please give me that DMT! 🙏
