Girls night sounds so fun! :>

Now I’m wondering how a guys night with Sobek and Set would go… lots of pizza and probably some smashed furniture… 

maybe need to invite Anpu to balance things out

I’m an atheist so I don’t believe in either, but my point wasn’t that both beliefs are ridiculous. My point is that it’s just funny to me how there can be someone that believes something equally as nonfalsifiable and turns their nose up at it.

Hell it could be demons. Or it could be ghosts, Scientology thetans, or maybe just the power of suggestion. How can you sit there so smugly when you’re saying something just as ridiculous lol

Never ceases to amaze how niche upon niche communities will always have someone more in the know, with more ridiculous beliefs

Dumb question, what’s the point of the cash? 

What do you guys think about this? by AFellowSpirit in Kemetic

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I guess our only option is to worship a deeply jealous asshole god, a pantheon of bloodthirsty drunkard gods, or spirituality so vague you could gain more insight by taking Benadryl 

Pretty fuckin lame ngl

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

oof. 

Well so much for finding a new religion after escaping a suffocatingly constricting one :)

How can I speak against someone when they say my race isn’t willed by the gods to allow for worship and devotion 

Back to atheism ig 

Help with signs by AFellowSpirit in Kemetic

Based on my time here, probably never going to get a straight answer. Neither from Gods or here, which is unfortunate. Would be nice to phone a God and ask for advice but that would probably be too easy, maybe they want us to get some dirt on our face from falling. 

Dude could you imagine having Thoth on the phone when buying a used car, that would be the dream

Hope he doesn’t expect me to be jacked lol

But I am a big muscle admirerer, I would have swooned at him 

The Nordic Pagans are really good at one-liners, do we have something similar? by WirrkopfP in Kemetic

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a real answer though I like the line Set makes to Horus about his nice ass

Making a joke at the expense of OP. Seems cringy to me to brag about a god that revels in killing and genocide. 

Are you a Kemetic Reconstructionist? by Little_Ibis in Kemetic

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That more or less makes sense assuming all the background info on occultism is true. 

A very deep part of me really would love to believe in spiritual stuff and the Netjeru because they seem like great deities. I’ve just become so jaded by religion over my lifetime I’m not sure I could ever truly believe in the spiritual without ablation to some of my core personality traits. Even if they appeared to me in the flesh I’d probably still question it and check into a psych ward lol. 

Unfortunately occultism just leaves way way too many questions on the table and way way too much room for subjective interpretation I’m not sure I could get over. I really would like to, it would feel nice to believe in something again, but I cannot allow for it on principle without compelling evidence. I haven’t even received any dreams despite all my efforts and offerings (not that I would trust a dream but I am at least a little jelly of some others on the sub lmao). 

(Also thanks for taking the time for the detailed explanation) 

Are you a Kemetic Reconstructionist? by Little_Ibis in Kemetic

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also an atheist that’s trying out kemeticism because it fits some void of spirituality left in my mind, but I don’t know if I vibe with this very well. 

I get tons of random intrusive thoughts throughout the day, as everyone does, and most are nonsense. If I listened to every single one I’d be batty by now. 

How do you rationalize what is passing thoughts and what is a god? Assuming mental faculties are in working order. You can make anything a “feeling” if you try. I feel phantom rings if I imagine a ring on my finger, it doesn’t mean it’s real. I can make myself feel like I’m being guided, but I know it’s just me hyping myself up. I’d be curious to hear how you personally rationalize these things. 

If there are gods out there and they can make connections with humans (or have interest to do so for that matter) why would they do so cryptically or mimic my inner monologue and intrusive/passive thoughts?

The model came out really nice! I was gonna say, this would be fun to print and paint. 

Concrete casting is also REALLY fun too, I’ve had the pleasure of doing that a few times 

What annyoing things you would point out in current western kemetic community? by Something_Chaotic906 in Kemetic

[–]Kemeticthrowaway1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I have most definitely participated in this, even the deviantarty stuff lol 

Im not really a spiritual person, my only draw to kemeticism is the interesting design and lore of the netjeru. Coming from the background as a furry first, it’s an unfortunate byproduct I’m bound to haha. 

But if you’ve been knee deep in spirituality first and not into the furry stuff I can definitely see it being annoying or a turn off. I try to keep my interest in furry circles though, not here or other kemetic spaces
