  1. Yeah I guess. Yet I do understand it, but my ego has resorted to other tricks to keep me in the illusion.
  2. Aha, so you still qualify Absolute evil as being imagined by and therefore emanating from the absolute Good. However this brings up strange paradoxes. You qualify the absolute formless God, the ultimate reality, as being Good. Imagination itself, with nothing behind it, the ultimate bedrock of reality that is entirely self subsisting and not imagined or emanating from anything else. Let's call this the Godhead. You call this formless Godhead, Good, without the same qualification as absolute Evil. The qualification absolute Evil had to become Evil, was to be imagined by the Godhead. However the quality of being Good of the Godhead is intrinsic to the Godhead, right? The Godhead isn't imagining Goodness for itself, it already eternally is without qualifications. Couldn't the Godhead now, imagine in the same way as it imagines absolute Evil, imagine an absolute Good that IS qualified by the Godhead? That would be consistent with the Godheads power, since it imagined absolute Evil, it could also imagine absolute Good. Would this second Good, this emanation from the Godhead, be any different from the Godhead (like some sort of "angelic goodness"), or would the Godhead imagine itself again? Would absolute Evil be in opposition to the Godhead (being everything the Godhead isn't somehow), or in opposition to this "second Good"? Surely absolute Evil is proposed by you to be in opposition to some kind of Good, in the same way darkness is the absence of light. But how can anything be in opposition to the Godhead? wouldn't that be non-existence, pure non-being? How can Absolute Infinity have an opposite? Absolute Blue seems less paradoxical, since it's not in opposition to anything. It's just an Infinity chilling within itself.
  3. Yeah I got more skeptical about it as well. History gets a lot more messy and less proven to me the more i study it.
  4. I guess thats the silver lining to realms of absolute evil existing, that such realms must as well. In the end Leo is just like Mohammed, telling us about God, hell and heaven(where you get to fuck). lol
  5. If it's cope then we have to dismiss the entire myth and even Mohammeds historical existence that you assumed previously. You have weird standards
  6. I disagree with your sneaky relativising of aesthetic principles. Just because God thinks a turd is beautiful doesn't mean that when I take a picture of a turd with my iphone its good art. It's not only about current fashion, but about much deeper psychological trends of the mind, "mesotrends" if you will.
  7. So what would you propose high consciousness people listen to?
  8. Taste is not everything though, although it is the majority of what makes art good. Technique is also crucial, not only for the ability to make art in the first place, but because taste is also in the fingers itself, not just the brain. Your fingers are intelligent and contain their own artistic taste that can never be developed with just mental, non-manual taste development. By spending hours improvising on the piano for example your fingers will be able to create melodies that you could never make up by drawing them on a digital music program for example.
  9. Fair enough, I think I misread what you said.
  10. Can we even call it channeling at that point though? Isn't the idea of a channel that it is to/from something external, like sending a message over the internet, only through psychic means? Why would you still call it channeling? Well, if we're anyway going by the myth, his followers seem to have memorized the entire Quran and spread/wrote it from there. They couldn't have made up extra verses or changed verses since there were so many memorizers, so one alteration would be corrected by many other correct memorizers. (almost exactly like how a blockchain works) Well when people say "wrote" they just mean made up, but ok.
  11. It's only absolute in the sense that its essence is reality/consciousness, but as a finite thing, it's relative. In the same way that a pinky is a human, but what constitutes a human is not just a pinky.
  12. Isn't it that the Absolute is either formless nothingness or an Infinity of forms(The entire infinite set of all forms), but never a single, distinct thing? How could there be an Absolute Blue? However it's crazy you mentioned that because one time on a psych trip, I closed my eyes and it kept getting more blue and more blue until I couldn't handle it anymore (and I opened my eyes) and it felt crazy that It could even get more blue than what I normally would imagine as pure blue.
  13. Isn't there only one formless abstraction; Infinity itself? how can a formless abstraction have the "Form" of evil? You have classified God as Infinite Good(and not evil). Would God/Good be stronger than Evil, or do you propose a Zoroastrian style of metaphysics where they are in a perfect balance for eternity?
  14. I've been hoping you'd get into that realm. How could it ever be Absolute though? how could a specific hellrealm or an individual demon be Absolute evil? you could always think up something more evil than that, so it must be finite/relative. Just like a heaven filled with doves, bliss and/or maidens wouldn't be the Absolute Good. Cool.
  15. such American customs are so deeply, unnervingly unaesthetic to us Europeans.
