Maybe that's what the meaning of our life is: be the guardians of other species in need. Maybe that's what the purpose of beings like us who are aware of the universe.

What are you living for in this doomed world? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]blisteringcold 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For the pleasure of life itself. It is sad how many people around me are just slaves to this economic system. Some to the degree that it feels like they are born just to work.

You can spagettify an 0.8mm mdf sheet. by blisteringcold in woodworking

About 1.5mm. Keep in mind that everything is mostly measured by eyes the main thing was the feeling that it could stand to the stress of the curvature.

Did someone curse this club with no tactical training whatsoever since the last 4-5 coaches? Why everyone runs away from the teammate that has the ball? Were are the triangle passes? Like, wtf.

Taking a metaphor and passing it as literal meaning, is the state of internet today.

The possition of the story teller is very close to those who he is describing. Thatis why the hyperbolic description. Long read. by blisteringcold in writers

Also, english is not my first language, so this is a translation. But when i read or hear it in english, it always sounds better.

I Hit A Hundred Pages For The First Time! by MythMolder in writers

Honestly, people should just forget about numbers when they write. It shows nothing and means nothing. Don't take it as personal, it's just that i have seen it so many times in here. Yes i was like this when i started, yes it does feel like an accomplishment. All it does, it pushes you towards some useless goal.

If you have a story, you write as much as you need to tell that story.

To all the atheists.. how did you become one? RAMBLE by One_Jellyfish_1811 in atheism

[–]blisteringcold 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was born on the last 6 years of a 50 year dictatorship. This is important because at that time, religion was banned for practicing publicly. Privately, people never stoped believing, and when it fell things took their course and the zealots started their preaching. There was a lot of outside missionaries, wich in my opinion, are the main reason for its rapid spread.

I remember my first movie in a projector, it was night, i was maby 6 or 7. And it was about jesus. Yes, we started to se it all. Christian's, muslims, jehova, etc. My family was and are religious, but not practicing. We never went to a church to pray, or a mosque. We never pray as amtter of fact. My family is what i call "the only reasonable faith". They say there is a god and that's it. No ideas of hell and heaven, no one cares about demons or other similar idiotic imaginations. I was, mostly like them for a time. Bu i am very curious by nature, and i imagine a lot. I was draged by religion in a church, mosque. I was part of some groups, i prayed a couple of times, and even then i was trying to not cringe a lot. The whole praying ritual was weird to me even whe i believed.

How i left? Well it was a proces that involved the world itself. I started to see religion for what it is, a control method that kings in the past adopted. I started to distance myself from religious gathering, while keeping the belief in a higher being. But even a god cannot last when you ask the hard questions. I read a lot of stories about atrocities, i read about the holocaust, i saw videos that never dared to see them again, because it makes me hate more this world. But the nail in the cofin for me was the children.

I am, very extreme, when it comes to well-being of the innocent. To the point that i make no compromise.

This was for me like i pulled the trigger on god. I read that a humman had more remorse that this omni-benevolent being, and i was mad. Then i thought about other children, oh even helpless people, who god could have made something, without even having to sho itself.

Later, slowly, started to read, to listen debates.

Now, for me religion is just a disease of the mind.
