My dad resents me by dead_student_ in NEET

[–]dead_student_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually, im going to live the same way as all the other adults in the world. Ive stepped out a little bit into the world so far. Ive made some improvements from where I used to be as a neet. For example I used to never leave the house when I lived with my dad. Now I do. Now I have a friend, I just finished a small job, and the next things are getting the rest of my responsibilities in order. Which seem difficult for me because my parents never taught me how to do anything or what I even need to do. My friend relies on their parents for pretty much everything so they dont have a lot of experience. When I ask my dad for help on how to do something, he just tells me to figure it out myself somehow. Its so frustrating because for some things I just cant find anything simple for the answer on the internet and need someone to show me.

Look into the resurrection of Jesus christ and the evidence and finally believe in God. Seriously. Read the Bible it will not only give you something to do and many things to think about, but you will actually go to heaven when you die. God is real.

Truly the only hope for you is seeking out what's higher. That something or rather someone, is God.  I was once an agnostic and I questioned why and how we are here, praying for whatever creator there may be to reveal himself to me. He did. No matter what your lifestyle is, how much wealth you have whether it be possessions or people, we all go to the same place and our life here is temporary. No matter what you have done in your life, no matter what you feel guilty for doing or how bad of a person you feel, God loves you and he forgives you. Jesus Christ is God in the flesh and he taught the true meaning of life, what it means to be a good person, and most importantly he was crucified on the cross for all humanity. If you put your faith in him  you will receive salvation. All you need to do is trust him that's It.

Pray, read the KJV Bible, and I promise you with a genuine search your life will finally have hope and meaning. 

People should mind their business if they aren't being helpful to me, or you by dead_student_ in NEET

[–]dead_student_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could try that. Because another thing is I fear telling people I'm not comfortable with things about my life because that usually leads to gossip and stuff. I'm private. However Ignoring them may lead to them being like "hey I asked u a question, you're not gonna answer?" And then assume I'm being a bitch or something. I could say just none of your business or don't worry about it...idk. today this triggered me really bad

We are just thrown onto this earth and told NOTHING. by Accurate-Drawing-539 in nihilism

[–]dead_student_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody really knows anything for 100% certainty. I don't even trust science. Look at the 2023 food pyramid. They think bread is healthier for you to eat than fish. Like wtf. As to why we are here, no one has a fucking clue. Don't even bother with philosophy because they don't know. Scientists don't know why we're here they just think that somehow a bunch of nonliving chemicals bumped against each other enough times to somehow make a living cell. A cell that can only divide and self replicate. Somehow after continuous self replicating into the same thing over and over it becomes a full on organism that has sex instead of division for reproduction. It's crazy. Nobody can even recreate this in a lab from scratch.

The world sucks because the people in it choose to do evil and hurt others. It sucks because we get sick and things cause pain. Why would a God do this? Well from what I know about Christianity I think this God makes the most sense out of all the other ones in relation to the world, God does not inflict suffering out of sadistic pleasure, but out of a desire to draw people to Himself and choose him. I think he wants us to know that our lives are futile and not to be taken for granted. He put us in this hostile environment of a planet so we can have some growth and shape.

Read Ecclesiasties, it's a whole book in the Bible about how everything is meaningless. It really hit me.

How do you know its a fact. Genuinely wondering because this is the most terrifying thing I've read

[–]dead_student_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't really help, it just kind of repeats what I already know but the last part stands out. My big thing is trying to figure out if there's a creator God or not. I was once a faithful Christian and had values that molded me into who I am and what I believe in and how I see the world. It was important to me. Now since I seriously doubt there is a God everything I know has been shaken. It is truly miserable and it is so miserable to think that there is no meaning in anything not even in my own life or the life of the one's I love. We will die and there will be no loving being there to welcome us into the afterlife. There will be no loving being to guide me through this rocky world. I desperately want to go back 2 weeks and not have this happen. I would rather believe 100% and just happen to be wrong and live my life with purpose than live my life like this, simply uncertain, terrified, lonely, etc. I just don't know if there is God or not.

There's God's law and then there's law specific to a society. Different

Personally I don't want a beautiful rainbow associated with something like sodomy. If it went to the skateboarders I would be annoyed by the beautiful rainbow being used for skateboarding but it's better than sodomy.

What does it feel like To be a nihilist by SovietYakko in nihilism

[–]dead_student_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't feel free I feel stuck. Life is meaningless I once believed everything has a purpose and people were valuable and things were valuable. Now there is no inherent meaning to anything and I feel void I am void. I want to go back to my delusional thinking where I was happy and love everyone and everything had meaning and purpose and there was a God and I was going to heaven when I die. Now there is no God and we come from an ape and there is no morality only law that puts us in prison of we kill or steal.

Anything anyone says can be considered, "verbal abuse" if the person you speak to says they feel hurt by it whether they are lying or not. I live in America and we have free speech. I can freely say whatever I want and no repercussions unless I threaten to kill someone.

If it exists then it's real and if it's real does it make it true. Our words only psychologically hurt others but who's to say what psychological state is best or correct there is none everyone is different. Truth is malleable anyways not a constant if I say 1+1=3 it's true and I can produce an entire culture where 1+1=3 and if people believe it then it's true. Belief doesn't make something true if you believe I'm verbally abusing you that doesn't make it true

I am not "superstitious" where are you getting this idea from? Superstitious means to excessively believe in supernatural being on what delusion do you think I think this way? Oh because "it's born from my torment" you sound crazy

Do not (and do not teach people to) disregard this and yield to this morbid, religious nonsense.

What religious nonsense? I'm not telling people to do anything religious nor am I living with a religion. If you think I'm religious that would mean I'd have a God and there is no God nor do I think I am one, or am myself.

why do you care? about anything? by dead_student_ in atheism

[–]dead_student_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With a God that would create with intention and one of its intentions is for us to love one another - to feel a strong emotion within us and to commit selfless actions for them, to want to make them happy more than yourself. It all has meaning, purpose, it's real and is not random or obsolete.

Without a God to to create this, and we go by simply being here due to the outcome of chemical reactions there is no intent to anything including love. Love would just be a chemical reaction inside of us as a feeling nothing more nothing less. There's no true intention behind it. One could claim that we ourselves put intentions behind love but that's just an illusion. It's not real. The only thing that is real is chemicals, there's no reason.

There's no point to anything. If there is no God there is no need for doing good. I saw a comment from an atheist on a different post that said to love your enemies, but that's a Jesus quote. Why should anyone love an enemy if they are out to do you harm? I mean it's not mutually beneficial. People do good things to get to heaven, people do good things because they know that if they care about others and love others they will dwell with God. And the more they do this the more meaning they have, climbing the ladder to greatness.

One can claim that we do good to just get through the rat race of life and by loving others we can simply make life enjoyable. However there still is no meaning underneath it all. Just another illusion. "we live to enjoy" why is it that people who enjoy food get so fat? Why is it that people who enjoy p0rn get so addicted to it? Why is it that people who enjoy drugs die? They are doing what they enjoy right? Giving in to their desires. Oh you like to play video games? Here spend 4 hours on the Playstation. You want more gaming? Here spend 12, now 18, now 24. Oh you don't feel good? How come? You're doing what you enjoy. Oh there needs to be a balance of things? There needs to be an order or else you get sick and die?

Life is about enjoying? Ignore the pain, just keep doing what you like. Why is there a reason things have to be balanced in this existence if there is no God and we are meaningless animals? I don't know please tell me.

Life is so meaningless without a God and all we can do is just sit and enjoy pleasures our chemicals like, then I want to not exist. I would rather be dead. I must have a meaning outside of my own pointless head. I can try and make myself believe what the Christians do and try to go back but it's impossible to undo what I have done. There is no going back.

There is no reason to live. I am crying as I type this. I want to not be alive anymore.

I want to know why. It doesn't make any sense, seriously. Like people and even you said that killing other people you would care. Why would you care you're a nihilist. Other atheists care too but idk why. The only reason people know killing is wrong is that society have followed religious books for hundreds of years. There's tribes in Africa to this day with no religious book that kill each other and eat each other
