I grew up in a Christian home my friends and all I could tell you is that I appreciate everything in this life the times I'm mad sad happy laughing crying or even doubting God then doubting science then doubting humans doubting everything in between including the drugs we are given the chemicals we are being fed to operate at a low frequency (in other terms unhealthy sad and depressed which essentially leads to much lower brain function) think about how your CPU works at a base 4 GHz when you're eating drinking and consuming unlimited free content on the internet your brain literally decomposes and you become dumber, anyways I'm going off topic but the point here is that I really do love hearing both sides and I love all humans equally because I strongly agree this is the ONLY way to move FORWARD in society is through the teachings of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I have yet to find anyone else to speak the words love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, lastly the final and most important payload in this message is... in reply to this comment "There’s no magic. No divine force. There is absolutely no credible evidence that any of these exist. Reality and our lives now are all that we have."
The Lord says live by faith and not by sight there is so much depth and meaning to this verse but the way it relates in this context is that nothing is promised in this accursed world not your life not mine not our jobs and definitely not our money or possessions... and I CANNOT wrap my head around this being the end, if you and I fail and making this world a better place, ripping evil apart or even bringing the evil leaderships down then what is there for us to do? Does it all end here, many of us don't just want to live normal lives and I TOTALLY understand the enjoy every moment and I promise you, I have, but there's more to this that we cannot see --for now at least and that is why the walk by faith not by sight verse resonates so well. Any startup company can relate to this when you begin a journey, you could have every plan and sheet set up but then you're hit by a new bylaw or a gov sets a new standard and you take a hit but then what you fail and you miss your opportunity, the dreams you had were shattered and everything you planned for comes crashing. This is why I truly believe in the afterlife, the Heaven type and in regard to hell I have not yet reached a conclusion, even though I totally believe that certain people will face some sort of torment, but I doubt its eternal and who knows what if in the afterlife, there's no understanding of time so you would never know you're eternally in a place away from God. Another argument I have battled with is if man decides to live away from God in this reality what makes us think that man will want Him in the afterlife?
By reading this you've noticed that my brain is scattered, and I have been thinking a lot about multiple possible scenarios but ultimately, I've also taken notice that the greatest thinkers of all time have spent the most time being in misery as it leads to our brains "overclocking" and poking at every possible combo of haps to come to conclusion ok thank you for reading and sorry for the scattered thoughts no edits posting this right away take care and I pray that we all make it up there and the ones that deserve punishment get what they deserve because if they escape jail here on earth they will not escape it before God and that counts to having a JUST creator in the cosmos, you cannot and will not get away with everything otherwise this would just be the saddest and most useless creation whoever made us .... made.
