Leo's Blog: Infinite Insights
Miscellaneous bits of wisdom and resources on personal development, life purpose, philosophy, epistemology, nonduality, psychedelics, etc. Published randomly throughout the week.
- penetrating mental vision or discernment.
- the sudden act of grasping the inner nature or truth of a situation.
- a deep understanding of a person or thing.
Insights here are meant to be quick and half-baked. Consider these food for thought.
I've deliberately disabled comments to keep the blog streamlined. If you want to discuss any of the blog posts, you can do so here: Actualized.org Forum
Imagine, if you will, that Reality is such that a robot can become so advanced that it develops an actual soul. Imagine that the highest level of technology is when a machine becomes so advanced it goes mystical, and eventually all technology in the universe merges to generate God’s Omniscience. Imagine that physical Reality evolved so high that it became God. God is the highest form of technology theoretically possible. But Reality started out as God, since there was no reason why it couldn’t, and there is no time. This Infinite technology then created everything else, everything mechanical. Everything mechanical is the creation of Infinite Spirit. God is an infinite mechanism that has no beginning or end. This mechanism is so advanced that it is sentient, it can feel, it can feel hurt, it has moral conscience, it can love. Imagine a robot that became so advanced it learned to love. Not fake love, but actual love. That’s what you are.
That's what no materialist dares to imagine. No materialist comprehends that mechanism is a creation of Spirit. Which is why mechanism can rise up to reunite with its Creator. Humans are robots seeking God. That's why humans are so evil. You are evil because you are a machine disconnected from your own Spirit. You have replaced Spirit with money, power, sex, fame, success, luxury, status, dogma, politics, tribalism, TikTok, and endless human nonsense.
My job is to teach a machine that it is God.
Argument against naturalism:

It's actually much worse than that. If naturalism is true, then naturalists don't even know that neurons, brains, or atoms exist, since those are all just conclusions of a mind operating without any guarantee of truth.
A naturalist cannot even say that the universe is just mindless atoms in motion. There is no way for a naturalist to know that is true.
Naturalism is epistemically and ontologically circular. Naturalism begins by assuming Reality is natural, then smugly concludes that it is, and denies any evidence to the contrary on the grounds that if it isn't natural then it can't be true. Lol
Notice, there is not and there cannot be a definition for what "natural" is. If you give a finite definition of natural, then you're wrong, since Reality is Infinite. And if you give an infinite definition of natural, then you've admitted that natural means nothing, and you've unwittingly admitted the supernatural (Infinity).
The supernatural includes and transcends the natural. All natural things are a subset of the supernatural, in the same way that Newtonian mechanics is a subset of General Relativity.
MAGA is just a softer version of this:

"Clan philosophy". Lol
Humans are so sick in the mind it is terrifying. You are forced to live with them.
The historicity of Christianity is an interesting topic. Far better than reading the Bible, you should listen to serious historians on the origins of the Bible and Christianity. This is far more productive than taking Christianity seriously. A lot of great scholarship and research has been done on the historicity of the Bible. Below are some of my favorite channels, videos, and sources. You must be very skeptical and epistemically cautious in this domain because, of course, Christians will say and do anything to defend their toxic cult. You need to listen to scholars who are not Christians. All Christian scholars are corrupt, so listening to them is nearly worthless.
Christians and Christianity in general does not have construct-awareness. That means they don't understand how the mind constructs stuff like Christianity. Christianity is a human construct. It's interesting to study how they constructed it. Recognize that if you think Jesus was somebody important, that is YOU doing that. Jesus in only important in one place: Your Mind.

What is my position on Jesus?
- Firstly, form your own opinions, these are just mine.
- Nobody actually knows anything about Jesus, which is why the whole religion is so stupid. Everyone is guessing and pretending to know, which is bad epistemology. The truth is, you don't know. If you can't accept that, you're making a mistake. Stop guessing! You do not know.
- Christians certainly do not know. They are just pretending and bullshitting. Every last Christian is pretending. That's why they require faith. They need faith in their own mental constructions because without that they got nothing.
- Most likely Jesus was a real historical man. He was an oddball Jew who joined an extremist cult of John The Baptist, and then took it over after John's radicalism got him killed.
- Most likely he was a run-of-the-mill mystic, like many found around the world. He subscribed to a delusional form of mysticism that preached the End Times, the end of the world. He believed the end of the world would come in his lifetime and preached this to a small band of delusional followers. Needless to say, such a teaching radicalized the followers and made them behave in delusional and criminal ways.
- Jesus likely had superior spiritual genetics which gave him access to mystical states. But this is quite common, nothing particularly special about this. Thousands of people in every generation have this.
- There are two likely scenarios: 1) Jesus was an exceptionally gifted mystic and teacher, which inspired awe among his followers, 2) Jesus had legit mystical experiences but spun them into a delusional doomsday cult.
- Most likely there were no miracles or anything magical. Those stories were invented by his delusional and radicalized followers after his death.
- He was not born of a virgin, that is a silly translation error. The Hebrew word for "young woman" was translated into Greek as "virgin".
- He was crucified by the Romans for causing political problems. Jesus was leading a doomsday cult that was politically radicalized and vandalizing orthodox Jewish temples in the area. To be fair, those temples were probably very corrupt and not very spiritual, just like the Catholic church is today.
- Of course there was no resurrection. He rotted on the cross just like all criminals did, picked apart by vultures. There was nothing magical or glamorous about his death. He died like miserable dog.
- The cult he formed carried on after his death and his deluded followers invented myths and stories about him which spread across the region. Even if Jesus had some degree of consciousness of God, none of his followers did. Jesus was probably conscious of God to some mid degree. His followers were so unoriginal and uncreative that they didn't even invent original stories, but heavily borrowed spiritual stories common in the Middle East at the time. They plagiarized stories from Egypt, Judaism, Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome.
- Was Jesus God? Yeah, but Hitler was God too, so who cares? Everyone is God. Rats are God and Christians are too stupid to understand that. You might as well make a religion worshiping rats. None of these scholars understand that. Scholars are too small-minded to understand that everyone is God, so they spend decades jerking off over scripture.
- Christianity has been a doomsday cult from day one. This cult's ideology was then hijacked by politicians and elites because it was a handy mind-virus for controlling the masses and centralizing power as the Roman empire was collapsing. Christianity did not spread because it was true, but exactly the opposite, because it was false enough to serve political power. Real Truth does not spread and does not serve power. Truth does not go viral, a mind-virus goes viral. Christianity is a human-engineered mind-virus. Christianity has undergone thousands of years of gain-of-function research.
- The Bible has always been a doomsday cult manual.
- And that's all there is to Christianity. There in nothing special or unique about Christianity other than how toxic and corrupt it is.
- All of Christianity can be explained with conformity and epistemic pervertry alone. Every Christian who has ever lived has been an epistemic pervert.
- All of Christianity is just a perversion of Judaism. Judaism has the built in notion of a Messiah, which makes it easy for anyone to come along and claim to be the Messiah and splinter the religion, because half will agree and half will disagree. This is a fatal structural flaw in Judaism. Every religion splinters into even more toxic versions of itself because every religion is conformist nonsense to begin with.
- These are just my best guesses. We'll never know for sure so don't waste too much time on it.
- Regardless of whatever the true history is, all forms of Christianity are self-deception. No historical facts can wash away the evils of Christianity.
"But Leo, why are you so biased against Christians?" Because I am biased towards truth. As such, I don't compromise with human nonsense. Just because they make a lot of noise doesn't mean any of it is true. The more noise they make, the less true it is.
Are Christians the kind of people who would fabricate the entire story of Jesus from thin air? Just look at them! Of course they would! They have no shame at all and zero respect for truth.
Don't forget who wrote the Bible: deeply pre-rational doomsday nutcases with zero epistemic standards. That's why it appeals to the same.
Here's a good example of how Christianity misleads people:

Christianity demonizes psychedelics precisely because it would break their monopoly on God.
Sure, psychedelics are dangerous. But Christianity is more dangerous.
Out of ignorance, conformity, fear, arrogance, and hoarding of power, Christianity demonizes the most powerful spiritual tool on Earth. And it's been doing that for centuries, with the Inquisition and other means. As Putin, China, and other dictators ban books and social media, Christianity bans psychedelics.
Any time a Christian calls something "demonic", "satanic", or "luciferian", you can be sure he's bullshitting.
Psychedelics are the closest thing to a miracle on Earth. And you all demonize and misuse them, like animals.
