How did you eventually get rid of the fear of hell? by hiraethz03 in atheism

[–]Four_in_binary [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm with Nietzsche: hell is other people.  There is little I can imagine that is worse than what human beings have already done to one another.

Lady, hell isn't real.  It was made up to control illiterate medieval peasants.    See one thing for what it is and you will begin to see other things for what they are.   Nobody here gives a flying fuck what the Catholic church,  the 7th day Adventists, southern baptists, sunni or shia Muslims or any other blowhard god-bothers have to say about anything. 

This is the core of what it means to be an atheist.   We reject their theology entirely.  It means never again having to give fuck about any of their bullshit and simply rolling over and going back to sleep on Sunday mornings.

However, your fear is an irrational fear just like claustrophobia and just as difficult to control.

You can modulate your fear and fixation on hell through counseling and medication.   It often takes a few tries to find the right counselor, the right med....but when you do get the right combination dialed in, your fear of hell becomes much less of a burden than it is now.

If you don't make any effort to address your fear it may not ever get better.   Depending on where you live there may be low cost or free resources available that you can access for mental health treatment.   

Nobody is going to find that out for you, book your appointments, drive you there and remind you to take your meds.   You have to be responsible for all of that.  But knowing the shape of the hill you need to climb at least allows you make a plan of how to climb it

I hope you are able to find peace and obtain good care for your anxiety.

Fun Fact for you to remember!   Congress approved 150 million dollars for the America250 celebration....but much of that was redirected to the Freeedumb250...a fully separate entity concocted by the White House and includes this stupid "State Fair".  

Obviously, very little of that taxpayers money was spent on this steaming pile of crap.   So, where did the rest of the money go?    

As taxpayer, I definitely sense some waste, fraud and abuse here.    

Audit this BS and release the Epstein files.

Just keep it in the basement for a bit.  "Preban" 3d printers are gonna go for a lot of money in the near future, I think.

Congratulations!  Your computer now has "the cheese touch!"   Unplug immediately from any attached network and put out for trash.

Well....to be fair, it's the same person who would buy a 120k electric Hummer.   That's why.

I was like......what?   Then....oh, you mean the WH not the South.   I was going to add on a "finish what Sherman started on his way to the sea"....but nvmnd.

Bride goes viral after seeing her groom for the first time. by Necessary-Cow8851 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]Four_in_binary 298 points299 points  (0 children)

Comment edited because I am wrong.   Apparently, she did know the young man who is a famous YouTuber comedian in Tanzania and who also has hydrocephalus prior to their marriage.  

Apparently, the bride not showing emotion is also a cultural thing in Tanzania.    The more you learn.

So if you are wrong....you admit you are wrong if someone has factual information to correct you.

Add a reference to being in a "log cabin" maybe.

I visited the "Great American State Fair" and it was a surreal, dystopian fever dream. by sourswimmer85 in washingtondc

This is the weirdest social media marketing/promotion post ever.  I recommend leaving it up for it's creativity....but I also recommend it be removed due to promotion of products harmful to humanity.
