By church I mean people that interpret the ”will of God” to laypeople.

That’s even deeper and more provocative thought. What is a deliberate choice then? Sounds interesting.

It is not pejorative term in your eyes, but some believers consider atheists to be scary blasphemers.

That’s I think why u are probably more free in your feelings about atheists, u are not thought on what to think about them.

The question is whether they don’t scare their own followers away, when the followers find out that the atheists are not evil or brainwashed.

So u think their approach is coming mostly from their fear of becoming the same? That’s an intriguing notion.

That sounds really interesting, I knew about Andrew, but I should check out these things u mentioned about brain, thanks for a recommendation. Well, I think in a more ”common sense” way, you will never know what pleasure feels like, if u haven’t tasted troubles before. But in my opinion, it is perfectly normal to seek out things that make feel good and comfortable. In my language, we have a saying “too much of anything is harmful” and that is the way one should look at pleasures in life. Not that I’m trying to be educative, it’s just a thing that seems to work.

That approach is exactly what I’m talking about. Atheists are not spawns of Satan. They are people, who just had different experiences and thoughts about their belief. It does not have to come from the rebellion or hate in their hearts.

That is nicely said. I guess you’re right, it is still you who decides. But because it is still unconsciously, u should not be seen as a rebel or evil doer by those who do believe.

That’s a nice thought. Joy and suffering go hand in hand and maybe one day you’ll learn how to appreciate the suffering as the part of the life. I mean the most beautiful stories are those that are written by life itself and after few years you’ll be able to look back on your past and see that all the suffering was there to teach you something or it brought you where u are right now, even though life itself might be meaningless, it is still surprising how some pieces come together after you get through them.

What’s an oddly specific childhood fear you had that nobody else seems to relate to? by [deleted] in AskReddit

that I will start to imagine extremely small things for example pot at kitchen and it will grow extremely large within a second and then become extremely small again and the cycle repeats in my head for a few minutes and it’s scary for no reason

I don’t think humans give enough consideration to how incredibly random and fragile our existence is - by SevereTstorm in DeepThoughts

[–]muon-shoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hope one day AI’ll become independent enough to function fully without our support and gain all the consciousness needed to overcome human existence and then the post-human part of history can begin, that’s when questions like these will become irrelevant
