The evidence for the soul and God is quite slim. Theyre tired of Gods silence. But I cant help feeling that this is wrong. Like original sin tower of babel kind of wrong. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73332955 It wouldn't be a good ride if it didn't scare you. Communism is for LOSERS Communism is SLAVERY Fuck Joe Biden |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 73332955 United States 05/27/2017 12:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've been thinking of this lately, and if it's possible, I should be able to send a sign to myself in the present from the future assuming time loops over and over. I'd be more apt to take something to stay healthy and young instead of loading myself into a computer. If loaded to a computer is drive myself nuts wondering if it was all of me that was loaded and if I had been modified in the process. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74953978 I wonder what it really even means to be uploaded onto a computer. Does it actually transfer actual awareness and consciousness or just raw speech and memory pattern data without your sentience. And would you be connected to the internet? Could you enter into videogames and movies and have limitless creative abilities? What would it actually be like? Or could you be trapping yourself inside an electronic prison? |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 73332955 United States 05/27/2017 12:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I just want to be turned off when my time is at an end. The more I learn, the less compassion I have. Sorry, you're on your own. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74411846 Hmm, thats been the opposite for me. The more I learned the more compassion I had. Maybe youre not learning the right things and only focusing on negativity. Think of it, with enough knowledge intake that is inevitably going to include the awareness of the feelings of other beings which is empathy which creates sympathy and compassion. It follows necessarily. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 73332955 United States 05/27/2017 12:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Where did "God" say that consciousness exists after physical death? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 62071757 Well perhaps or perhaps not God but the vast majority like 99% of the entire history of human religion and spiritual belief systems claimed this. Seems to be an ingrained and universal quality much like morality. Theres subset variances but broadly there seems to be some sort of objective universal belief in the supernatural and morality. It would seem God is the best explanation. Lots of well documented medical, scientific and psyche eval NDE evidence that would suggest this as well. |
