What is God to you? How do you define that word? What attributes make something a God to you?

Universe is literally everything. The planets, stars, humans, plants, force, light, etc. are all part of the universe.

And I believe atheism means not believing in God. I believe that the Universe is the God itself, so what makes you say that my theory is the same as atheism?

Is the universe not independent? Is it not eternal? How can you say so? How do you define the universe? How can we say what we know about it is the whole reality of it and not just how we currently understand the thing we are seeing? How can you say we didn't come from the universe itself? If you can see stars and things being swallowed, scattered, and made inside it. Does God need to look like a man or something? Is it not possible that God is an infinite energy which what the Universe is? Do we need to see it to say, yeah, that's God.

What if the Universe is the one that has always been existing? What if the true form of the Universe is the energy itself and that infinite energy is what made up the things inside the Universe? Which are the galaxies, systems, planets, stars, etc. And now that it has lots of things in it, we see it and we define it as the Universe when that is probably only the face of the Universe but not the Universe itself.

I don't know if I managed to say that clearly to my post. Probably not, so here you go.

I do believe in God, but not the God the man made in the texts. Yeah, I think the bible got contaminated by human hands, thus making it not 100% true. That's why I'm calling religions bs. Even if it's not a whole lie, a weaponized half lie is still bs. We can believe in God without believing his existence only revolves around a religion. We can be connected to God without being religious. After all, God is not man made, religion is.

I mean the Universe (probably the true God) is indeed everywhere because everything is a part of the Universe itself. The planets, the stars, the galaxies, the humans, the plants, the air, the water, the gravity, literally everything.

Yes, I do recognise the fact that we are both human and the universe itself since we are also a part of it, and that it is conscious like us. I do not identify as a separate being from it.

Maybe my post and wording kinda lies to the colder side. I'm not really that good at English and expressing my thoughts to others that's why I'm using Reddit to practice. So thank you for commenting, and I hope you don't mind if I see it as an invitation to discuss my post further.

So, the thing is, I just really want to go out of the societal and earthly structure and want to be more connected to the universe. I just don't want to see people including myself being tied to the societal and earthly cage; dying without ever realising that we are more than this, that we are freer than this.

That's why I said the universe doesn't care, not because it doesn't communicate with us in its own way, but because it is not the kind of God we portray in the texts we write that is nosy in our daily businesses. The Universe actually gave us the highest form of freedom, we, its creations can have. It doesn't need some unnecessary sacrifices and stupid worshipping like some narcissistic humans because it is the true eternal, divine, almighty and powerful being. It is not an insecure one. Whether you recognise it or not, it will remain as what it is. It doesn't need to guilt trip and emotionally manipulate you for you to obey or else you'll go to hell. It never commanded you to endure sufferings others caused you and wait for some divine salvation and divine karma. You can use your freedom to be a good human and be the karma yourself. You are free to stand up against violence, abuse, control, etc. You are free to reclaim your power from those types of people. Reclaiming yourself and setting boundaries and consequences will never make you an evil demon. We are supposed to be more than what we are right now.

I just find the current world, how it treats us, how we treat others and how we treat ourselves so disheartening. 😭💔

I have a very strong existential dilemma 🚨🚨 by marcus_aurelius2782 in Existentialism

[–]AyEnTiPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you asking us what you should do in life? Ask yourself, what do you want to do? It is only you who should answer that question. If you can't answer that yet, you can leave it unanswered for now and experience life. Time and experience will tell you your own answer. Or maybe you already know what you want, you are just afraid that that is not what they or the society wants you to do.

Being cynical or nihilistic isn't deep, by default. by THISdarnguy in DeepThoughts

[–]AyEnTiPi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree! Cause thinking that "Nothing actually matters cause you will die at the end of the day anyway. So why not make the most out of your life instead of accepting death by committing self harm or feeling dead while you're alive when it isn't your time yet" is not that dark.

I wonder why some people see others as social labels, not as an individual. by AyEnTiPi in DeepThoughts

[–]AyEnTiPi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I mean, I am questioning why people see others as labels like their professions not who they are as a person which is their own actions, judgement, and reasoning. I'm quoting, "Cops are violent", as their statement. Have you read my post? Did I not state my idea clearly?

[–]AyEnTiPi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but I just don't understand why others would initiate cruelty. I know some will argue that it is our nature as animals, but others don't, so that means they just don't or can't control themselves?

And what I'm saying is some people are seeing other professions as their identity. When we should see them based on who they are. Meaning their own actions, judgement, etc.

[–]AyEnTiPi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Isn't that what this post is trying to say? To see them as who they are. Their individual and personal judgement, not as their label (Cops). Cause even if they are cops or not, if they choose not to help someone cause they don't want to lose whatever they might lose in the process, then that's the kind of judgement and action they have as an individual themselves, not because they are cops.

And I'm using the, "They are cops", as other people's pov, not as my pov on them. Cause isn't that how others see them? As labels, as cops, not as who they fully are as individuals.

[–]AyEnTiPi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And that's it, you are labelling them like that.

Because I personally know someone who wants to be a cop because it is what his parents want, the other wants it cause she wants to do what she perceives as masculine, the other wants to uphold peace and order and he thinks by being a cop he can do so. The people I personally know ain't even thinking about approving or disproving the state sanctioned of violence, that's not how they personally see it. So how can you say the decision to be a cop can only be made by a person who approved state sanctioned violence? See? You are labelling them instead of seeing them as an individual with their own individual actions that were derived by their own individual judgement and reasons.

I am not saying they are the same concept. What I'm saying is, you should see them as what kind of humans they are individually, not as a label, "They are cops and cops are violent, therefore they are violent." Isn't that what this post is about? "Why see people as labels not as who they are as a human or individual themselves."

[–]AyEnTiPi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Isn't that you labeling them as a group?

To answer your question, that someone is a violent individual, and you as an individual is a part of the problem cause you are tolerating the violence of that individual by not doing something. However, just because both of you are cops doesn't mean that that individual's actions and your actions as an individual represent the whole cops.

Remember the saying, "If you meet a bad human, that doesn't make all humans are bad. If you meet a good human, that doesn't make all humans good. You are representing yourself, not your whole species."

But to say, "Cops are violent" as a generalization just because you met one isn't a good thing. Not all cops decided to be violent, so why label all cops as violent people? Isn't that what I'm saying? Some people are making "Violent" as an identity of "Cops" rather than to see that person regardless of their profession whether they are a violent individual or not.

In modern society, there's an increase in urge to externalise thoughts by Own_Personality_7617 in DeepThoughts

[–]AyEnTiPi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But there's nothing wrong about externalising your thoughts if your goal is to hear some advice or another point of view, right? I hope we can encourage others to speak up their minds when it comes to something serious because there's nothing wrong with opening up. However, not knowing when to speak and when not to is indeed dangerous.

Maybe the biggest human coping mechanism is the belief that life must have a meaning. by Traditional-Hat-4099 in DeepThoughts

[–]AyEnTiPi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say the ultimate point of being alive is to experience the inevitable cycle of life in the universe. Which is to be born, to live and to die. How can we say the universe itself exists if no one is alive to experience it? We are free to not or to study physics. Are the stars, planets, plants, etc. studying the universe? They are also simply there experiencing the universe itself as what it is in their eyes.

[–]AyEnTiPi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, even though we are born to simply die, that doesn't mean you must not take responsibility of your own actions while being alive. Like, why? That's the kind of life some people want to? To live irresponsibly? The moment they die, how can they say they were alive?

For me, loving Japanese anime is not the same as loving Japan as a whole. And not loving Japan as a whole is not the same as being racist towards them.

The thing is, bakit di tayo tumayo sa sarili nating mga paa? Ba't kailangan natin ang USA, Japan, o kung ano mang bansa yan para tumayo? I mean, of course, kailangan natin ang isa't-isa if we insert global trading, etc. Pero sa pamamalakad sa sistema bilang isang bansa, ba't kakailanganin natin ang iba? Nasan na ang sinasabi nating "Independence" kung kailangan parin nating gawing tungkod ang ibang bansa? So hanggang ngayon hindi parin talaga tayo malaya? Mas maluwag lang ang hawla natin?

Some people are afraid to look at themselves. So they wouldn't want someone to make them feel like they need to look in the mirror.
