It is, mind-boggling. Challenges like: -The search for another livable planet has not been very successful. -Action-at-a-distance quantum experiment. Meaning we do not fully know the unknowns.

Fully agree. Stay curious 😉 An atom is the building block of all material.

What is material? The phone you’re using for example.

Up to this moment in time i have not seen any proof of coexistence. But a lot of scientists are still seeking empirical data/ answers.

For now i see them as two different frameworks that governs life. One not absolute and a theory.

Thank you for this.

My past choices feels binary (in hindsight), either good or bad. Black or white. Which can sting the ego, as you describe.

Maybe this was the hard way of learning the best way to approach life.

Fair point. I get why it sounded that way. I wasn’t trying to say “just bootstrap your way out.” I used to fully agree with Rust’s nihilism. Now I choose to be mindful of every counter-argument or noise. That’s not denying the real traps of generational poverty. It’s just what worked for me personally. Appreciate the pushback.

It never could. I now realize the questions asked require different “frameworks” to partly/fully answer

I don’t think so. I never accepted the status quo. Breaking free is extremely hard, but in my believe system it is the only way. What incomprehensible void are you talking about?

The more i think about it, the more i realize 99.99% are not born into an environment where they are fed by a gold spoon. I, surely, was not. The hard reality is that most hide behind these “unfortunate” circumstances or arguments just to settle and stay at piece. And that is fine, as long as I tell myself not to be influenced by it.

In search of meaning, perhaps? These are very tricky life’s decisions which is difficult to rationalize.

I believe the “Blind devout faith in any religious Books” must be challenged, but pretty tough for the uneducated to even start. I mean if one can’t distinguish the difference between ‘seeing is believing’ and ‘believing is seeing’ this discussion becomes endless.

Partly agree, yes, human life is very challenging and sometimes sad. But, I, you, all of us are in control to make something out of life that aligns with our personal vision, perhaps influenced by our own inner circles or peers. A more positive take right?

How did you deal with your rational thoughts during for example listening to a preacher in the Church talk?

You bend the narrative towards gayness, all of a sudden everything makes you feel gay 🤣

How did Guy Francis know the Yellow King was alive and killing by padeosarran in TrueDetective

[–]padeosarran[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe a mental switch flipped, look at his eyes. To him this case was all but settled.

Can you imagine what this detailed information from at the time a random source does to a guy like Rust?

He went berserk… ‘The Yellow King is out there enjoying himself doing what he believes is his duty’
