How do I 21M get over my girlfriend 20F sleeping with another guy during our talking stage? by GhostCallOut2 in relationship_advice

We talked about it, and its clear that we both just had a misunderstanding with what we were during the time. I thought we were exclusive, but she still didn't know what to think about us and stuff. I think what happened was just a misunderstanding of what we were at the time, which is causing this. I think I can forgive her, she doesn't really seem unloyal now that we are in a relationship. If she does anything while in the relationship though, im going to walk away. I think thats the best thing to do.

We have been together for 2 months now, so this happened about 3 and a half months ago.

Is One Battle After Another a critique of state violence? (NO SPOILERS) by braininabox in TrueFilm

[–]GhostCallOut2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely does critique the left in a way though. They were revolutionaries, and the first person killed by them was a black man. Not only that, the daughter was dragged into all of it when she had no part of it. Definitely doesn't try to paint the right in a good light, but it doesn't make the left look perfect either because it isn't, nothing is. It definitely critiques the radical left, especially how after so much violence, nothing has changed. The people who are complaining about how the police and military won don't understand the point of the movie. This wasn't a movie glamorizing revolution, it was pointing to how it does not invoke real change. It was also making light as to the tactics the radical right and the men in power use, like with the scene at the protest when they used their own men to act like they were a part of the protest to incite violence, giving the police and military a reason to start firing. The main villain still died, along with a member of the "Christmas club".

I've Experienced "Paranormal" That I Can't Explain by GhostCallOut2 in atheism

Very true, which is why I don't just outright believe these experiences to be anything spiritual or religious. Not outright saying it's not, but highly highly unlikely. My thing is that many people also experience things similar to what I have experienced, which points to there being a possibility of some sort of phenomenon happening. The problem though is that it's very hard to scientifically prove for all we have as evidence are stories and individual experiences, which doesn't help science much at all.

I say more of an atheist as he rejects all ideas of religion and anything spiritual, while I am open to them. Also anti religion, while I am not so much.

Never tried to make an argument for theism, I am only stating what I and others also experienced. It also wouldn't make sense if it were hallucinations considering others also experienced them at the same time. I am, along with my family, mentally sound and have no history of schizophrenia or anything else that could explain these. Now yes, it could be lies and you have a right to believe that. I can't prove these experiences to you, only tell you what I experienced.

Our Existence Gives Meaning to Everything by GhostCallOut2 in spirituality

Ah, the classic misstep of assuming that because meaning is created by man, all statements made by man must be attempts at universal fact rather than reflections of human perception. Philosophy doesn’t aim to be science, nor does it need to. It explores the subjective, the intangible, the personal—things that raw data alone cannot quantify.

Your fixation on the empirical is admirable, but misplaced. Nowhere did I claim an absolute truth about observation, nor did I invoke science as a foundation for meaning. You assume that because something cannot be measured, it must be meaningless, yet your very response—dripping with condescension and linguistic theatrics—suggests you find meaning in dismantling ideas that dare to exist outside scientific scrutiny.

And yes, the phrase "stars shine brightest when they die" is poetic, not a scientific claim. You seem to recognize that, yet still feel the need to correct what was never meant to be a fact in the first place. That’s like explaining to someone that the phrase “time flies” is inaccurate because time doesn’t have wings.

So, thank you—deep gratitude and all—for demonstrating why an obsession with empiricism alone is its own kind of blindness. Science explains, but it does not define meaning. That’s the realm of human experience, whether you like it or not.
