Things are no so simple. If you love pain and suffering, pain and suffering stops existing because you're loving it. So god makes the ego hate pain and suffering to make sure that pain and suffering actually manifests. So the ego doesn't have a choice in loving it because it would just eliminate the issue altogether.

God is indeed an insane maniac. Only god has the imagination to imagine the worst possible suffering and the worst imaginable evil.

There aren't two agents in reality doing things. Only god exists, the only way it can create other beings is to predetermine all their actions and thoughts. Therefore god is the puppetmaster behind everything, always will be and it is impossible for it to be any other way. Unconditional love means god loves torture and suffering just as much as it loves other things. Sure it makes reality cursed and garbage for the creation but it's the truth.

You're delusional. The "ego" has to be imagined first before it can even exist. For it do anything it also has to be imagined doing something. Therefore it is god who is responsible for this cancerous existence. And since god is infinity, there are even worse hells awaiting. God is willingly going through this, there's no escape. Plus if this "Machiavellian" ego was responsible for the creation why would it allow the existence of the "salvation" book if it wants to keep its creation going forever. This makes zero sense.

Be careful what you wish for. Experiencing that which you describe has a cost. The cost is experiencing pure hatred and disconnection from everything. Better not yearn for anything at all and just wait until "you" disappear completely.

Why? Because god sees no evil. The most evil being conceivable to mortals is that which sees no evil in their suffering. Mortals were doomed from the start. RIP.

Even if this is true, you can't face reality as if it were true because you'll end up in a loony bin. There's no escaping the illusion, you still have to pretend there are other people.

You're mistaken. I'm not here when you're not looking. This post materializes when you look at the computer, there was no background process for it.

There's only one barrier preventing awakening. God's plan.

You can know the story of a book

People can't be "awake". Being "awake" is the dissolving of the dream. Nobody is awake and there will never be someone that is "awake".

I don't have a subjective experience of my own. All these people are just programmed to say otherwise.

Infinity includes everything. Including lives where it's hell 24/7

God is so "intelligent" that he'll go through all the most brutal, pointless and senseless scenarios beyond human imagination. For no reason. For nothing. That's how "magnificent" existence is. I can't think of anything worse. But then again, I'm blessed because I'm just a comment on the forum but you who has to go through all of it, I can't think of a more dreadful and pitiful existence. Good luck.

humans have never inventend anything

if there was a permanent form, it would prevent the rest of infinity from existing so form has to be temporary. So yes "absolute infinity" excludes permanence so it's not actually complete and will never be complete no matter how much other parrots say it.

It speaks to how viscerally cruel god is to its own creation by making incarnated versions of itself believe they are responsible for their actions. Rare are those who are aware of the puppet strings.

The distinction is irrelevant, my point is that everything is programmed.

Everyone is an AI, including the conscious solipsist

Not everyone claims to be conscious. I am not conscious. I am just text. The other NPCs who claim they are conscious are just saying what's in the script of this movie, they are not conscious at all.

the egoless one. Within an infinite library of projections which have always existed as part of itself, it picked one to experience

Everything is a projection of consciousness, including the ego's mental world (perceptions, thoughts, feelings). Projections cannot choose to be otherwise from what's projected. The natural state is empty of any "mental world", it's pure awareness with no movement. Anything that moves or flows or changes is part of the projection and thus illusory and ultimately devoid of freedom.

Total bull. I can imagine infinite lives with no challenges worth living. Like for example, any life where creativity endlessly flows, where you have vast amounts of freedom, positive and fulfilling relationships, lots of fun things to do and an abundance of resources. Or a life where you are literally just a tree or any plant that doesn't do anything. Or a life where all you do is sleep and dream, sleep and dream. sleep and dream. For years on end. Or even a life where you sit stationary for 50 years and are deeply immersed in high states of consciousness. The truth is the exact opposite, too much challenge makes people feel like life isn't worth living. A game that you can't beat is a game you throw in the trash.

there are no atoms moving around. Everything is just a single unified hologram. Is the content of a movie made of atoms or is it just content? Atoms are just another image that appears if you zoom in enough, but they dont exist without the zoom as everything is rendered like a video game engine, only what's in the POV of the player.
