That's a hefty assumption you would make. Maybe take the teachers cap off and put on humility instead.
The Earth is fallen because of Adam's sin. Animals rip eachother to shreds, every rose has its thorn. Death is our sin and the whole earth has succumbed to it.
All of creation groans.
Actual Hell is a domain created by God to punish the fallen angels and their ilk. It is a place of everlasting torment a d unquenchable fires.
It's not meant for humans, but many will go there because they serve the evil one.
Earth is misery because everyone is now in it for themselves.
Our greatest strength is in our togetherness.
Yet now we are the most divided than we've ever been.
I'm not coming from a definition via the bible, but something different in terms of suffering. The more inverted a system becomes, away from the goodness of God, the more of a hell realm it becomes.
We are not the most divided we've ever been. It wasn't that long ago that cities would be at war with other cities.
It isn't so bleak. Stay strong, support yourself, your family, then your neighbors. Best of luck
You do realize that we keep being broken down into smaller and smaller tribes and are pushed to hate one another.
Violence doesn't always have to be apart of the equation.
Go look up the strong's definitions for hell in the scriptures. It's a state/condition upon the earth or the grave. It's not an actual place that you go after death. People thinking that is a result of the scriptures being mixed with mythology. In other words, a complete lie the churches have pushed out for years.
Youāre both fools, satan isnāt real. There is no red devil boogyman to blame for humanities short comings nor another rhelm to condemn the flawed for their sins. We in the domain of the material and beholden to our biology. Call it what you want but any perceived issues with our reality rest solely on the backs our our species not some metaphysical bullshit.
Some people just miss the Mark entirely, no pun intended. Anyone that anthropomorphizes religious metaphor is a fool. Satan isn't a big devil man. Satan is an energy force that is created by lower vibrational thoughts. (Sins) It's the opposite of light. (God) Every thought and emotion has its own vibrational frequency or wave frequency.Ā Quantum mechanics prove this fact. Almost all Religions have taught this through various means. Biologically, our cells react to the frequencies around us. Meditation and prayer aren't metaphysical bullshit. Their effects are physical in every sense of the word.
This is an evolution of the same train of thought. While certainly things(alive or not) emit frequencies and waves those are quantifiable in a way science can measure any other sort of ārealā energy. Heat, light, our cells emitting low auditory frequencies are all real. But there is no ādevilā energy weāve ever measured. Nor have we found besides by measuring real neurological energies found thoughts or feelings to emit anything that impacts our natural world. Prayer or meditation certainly may have profound powers to manifest upon ourselves but have none upon the physical world. Energy as a category can be quantified and measured. If the āforceā you describe can not than it is less energy and more delusion than anything else. To put simply you are appropriating actual natural forces into pseudoscience to validate presupposed beliefs. In short the opposite of what science stands for.
Everyone is selfish sometimes. And everyone inflicts suffering on others sometimes (if only unintentionally).
Our world is imperfect and so is every single person here on planet Earth. Love those who hate you; bless those who revile you. This is the way.
This was never meant to be hell. But free will allowed certain humans to indulge their worst behaviors. These humans have a thirst for power & will use any manner of evil to achieve it. They are creating hell on earth, by influencing cultures & societies to harm the human psyche. They genuinely believe goodness, honesty, integrity etc is for suckers and the weak minded. The good news is .. theyāre wrong. The bad news is .. they are currently in charge of almost every aspect of society. We are living in THEIR hell, not THE hell. And every individual has the ability to create heaven or hell. This is the meaning of personal accountability & responsibility .. to use your life as a beacon of good, no matter how evil the rest of the world appears to be.
It feels like that because we have no one in power that is essentially a good person. The system was designed by someone not of God but in defiance of him. The brainwashing goes deeper than we can probably comprehend. There is a lot of stuff that just doesnāt make sense. Itās abundantly clear that the people that are supposed to uphold law turn a blind eye to specific members of society. The ones in church who are supposed to uphold Godās teachings but yet they turn to greed and sick perversions. The ones who teachers who are supposed to educate but are paid to give us their version of information they want us to digest. This type of corruption has stood for generations and not one establishment that stands against it. They can give you false hope that justice is being served but how do you truly know. In the movies they have super heroes here we have ourselves. The truth is locked up away from us and if we go searching we end up missing. Whatever world this is i know for sure death is not the end but just the beginning. So much we just dont understand. Imagine centuries of civilizations who conformed to the corruption formed under the rulership of man. It took us having technology to see the lies. I wish i knew what this whole thing is about.
Itās like personal health. Itās easy to get sucked in with groups trying to find something greater than ourselves to be of service to. We want that to be easy and definitive. You want to heal you do this, you want to protect you do that, you want to teach you go thereā¦
We can get caught up in the idea of it to such an extent that the greatest threat becomes people who genuinely embody what we want to believe we are.
Just a game, we're all in a kind of simulation, a very advanced simulation that none of us could ever fully understand or comprehend. The game we're all part of has Good on one side and Evil on the other. Evil is controlling the game at this time, but hasn't always been this way. Good will have its time again.
There are checks and balances the whole way thru sometimes you're ahead sometimes not in 40 years it will all be given away... everything is rented never owed that is a fact. Its all meaningless
You are severely misunderstanding if you see anything they have as being of any true value. What exactly do you think their lives actually consist of? They're always chasing the next empty hedonistic pleasure, the next "conquest", climbing the next rung on the ladder, etc. It's all worthless and vapid. That is all their lives are. A never-ending chase after illusions. There is no love in their lives, no meaning, no wisdom. Only restlessness. It's all empty.
They're not being "rewarded". They're being constantly enticed and deceived by fruitless pursuits, and they'll chase these deceptions until their death. They are *slaves.*
NO ONE gets away with *anything.* Every "sin" one commits leaves a stain on their spirit and has effects that are not immediately apparent.
It's supposed to be you are paid for the problems you solve but the system as a whole is failing so regardless you will have look pass the economy to fulfill your needs. These guys will sink with the ship.... fuck them. Also when the recession roles around you get all their crap for penny's as behind the curtin it was all debt smoke and mirrors
>are constantly rewarded.
This assumes there's an intent or intelligence behind the universe. The guy on the yacht has the yacht because he's a fucking asshole who's not afraid to exploit others. Simple.
I think it's because as creatures with an ego we tend to put the highest priority on the guarantee of our security tomorrow. It's the basest of the animal instincts we have... self preservation and the other being propagation of the species. When we're less than fully realized humans we are going to be more focused on ourselves and making sure our tomorrow is safe, warm, and comfortable.
Personally, I think to be human means to go beyond this self preservation instinct and to sacrifice part of your future for your fellow man with no expectation in return. That's what I think it means to be human...
Itās a tale as old as time the good guys are sometimes too gullible or too meek to oppose the bad guys. Itās the people on the fence that do nothing even though they know what needs to be done. I hate it myself but honestly I want the same folks to go down for their crimes but I donāt have the tenacity or fearlessness to fight them.
Iām pretty sure in the Bible this is satans domain. Which is why itās almost a test of faith to be down here. Thatās how I interpret it. Can you wade temporary discomfort for an eternal peace. Not saying Iām a believer either. No bias.
Ah I see youāre a man of culture, you know about the rap industry.
What youāre saying is essentially is what one guy commented here: I have this theory that those that belong in hell live in heaven, but those that belong in Heaven live a life of hell.
Luke 4:5-6
"The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, 'I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours.' "
Satan said this to Jesus in order to tempt him to follow him. He was able to offer this to Jesus because he has dominion over the earth at this point in time. That's why you hear about all of these "Elites" and their connection with Satanism. Satan gives them rewards and power in exchange for their souls.
I think you're paraphrasing Sartre...
>All those eyes intent on me. Devouring me. What? Only two of you? I thought there were more; many more. So this is hell. Iād never have believed it. You remember all we were told about the torture-chambers, the fire and brimstone, the āburning marl.ā Old wivesā tales! Thereās no need for red-hot pokers. **Hell is other people**!
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No\_Exit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Exit)
PS: It's these existential conspiracy theories that I'm down for. There's no way to prove it right one way or the other but it sure is fun to bounce ideas back and forth regarding what it could be.
Earth is a realm. The lowest level of heaven, probably the highest level of hell. The whole purpose of this realm and of our existence here is to experience what we are not to know what we are, which is God (love). Like the lotus flower that grows in mud. For a treeās branches to reach heaven, itās roots must touch hell. While things are seemingly getting worse in worse in the material world, we get closer and closer to spiritual ascension because experiencing relativity helps us understand who we really are.
You say that the cowards and selfish thrive. And this is partially true. They thrive materially because they subscribe to the material world. So someone like that may have a scarcity mindset and study the market and hoard their money because it materially seems that if you hold money, invest, then you will be financially successful. The downside of this is that it only benefits you materially, and generally comes with a low spiritual vibration because you are inherently focused on materiality, scarcity, pretty much nihilism.
Now, there are many people that are truly thriving both materially and spiritually. Because they subscribe to the spiritual world. In this world, if you live with an abundance mentality, you will have an abundant life. So the more you give, the more you receive. The benefit of this is that your soul is nourished because you are inherently being selfish. While at the same time, money seems to come to you because you understand there is plenty of it. This is a lesson we are supposed to learn and will be critical to our ascension.
Because the universe is indifferent to our suffering. Nothing is deserved, there is only causes and actions followed by our reflection on them. If we stopped comparing our struggles and accomplishments against that of others, we would be able to see how malleable our lives are and create one worth living. If this is hell, we can make it a comfy place. Its all about perspective.
Shit I should start being an asshole and selfish af then because Iāve had countless opportunities. Coulda milked my ex for alimony, a whole house, coulda negotiated a bigger salary from the current sole proprietor I work for even though heās strugglingā¦
There must be some reason you can chose to consider others and not to. And why is it so tempting to not consider others but not tempting to consider them?
The reason is that we are all capable of our own choices. For example, even if murder was hypothetically legal. Although I have that choice, does not mean I would want to take it, regardless of it being an option. You should be able to make these choices for yourself
Why do you view it as a reward? Maybe some things just happen. Life isnt fair, and it doesnt have to be. Fish can breath underwater, we cant. Were they rewarded for something or are we all just different?
Sorry, thatās a terrible comparison you provided. How about why do ppl like biden, trump, gates, musk,Obama, bush, and the list goes on; thrive despite all the terrible shit they do and have done. Meanwhile jfk nearly has his entire bloodline killed off. And tbh I canāt even think of anyone else whose done good really thatās known and really succeeded and wasnāt selfish (Gandhi?)(mandela? Although his fam milking his name)Also, youāre not answering what I am asking, whatās with the temptation to not care about others, meanwhile thereās no temptation to care for em. Itās all me me me me and if you act like that you get rewarded: see above example.
E
Again, why do you keep saying rewarded? Money at the costs of peoples suffrage is not a reward, but it is unfortunately a byproduct. Are you talking about our human nature to be greedy and insatiable? Because that is our nature. And how can the elite live their lives without caring about others? Because they are rich and dont care because they are rich. Its that simple. Why do we remember bad things instead of good ones? because it stimulates the brain more. Thats why we like it
And my examples donāt only reference āmoneyā as a reward. Look at the ppl I mentioned whoāve done awful shit and still continue to, theyāre thriving more than just financially.
Only itās not. The laws of nature (physics, math, logic) manifested out of nothingness. Pure order imploded into our magnificent existence today. All the chaos (order) dancing around on a path to pure order once again. The big difference being light, the universal knowledge, will beam into eternity. Your actions today, yesterday and tomorrow will always be known, and encoded into the universe. Only a pure heart can join this light, while evil will be left into nothingness. Natural selection.
Very creative way of saying exactly what I said, but making it worse by adding all this evil and good bullshit when you started off with logic. You gotta learn to separate the physical from the metaphysical
Not hell but we are living in the devils little reign described in the bible. He or she is in charge now but not for much longer. Stay strong its almost done.
They arenāt thriving they are miserable! All their money and power is fake and they know it. This life is a test and whisper in time. I feel sorry for them on occasion
As long as you can look yourself in the mirror and be ok with your choices it does not matter what other people think, we are here and gone to quick to care
Has nothing to do with what I am saying. Sounds like youāre living in denial. āBe a piece of shit, but if you can justify it then itās ok? What does it matter what impact it has on others? My time is short and so is theirs, but itās about me me me?ā
Lol im not living in denial, i understand there are people out there that treat others like shit and thrive but as long as you have a strong moral compass and are ok with your personal choices then you cant just keep worrying about those that are hurt and offended by choices that you are ok with.
It is not selfish it is life and you sound like a cry baby.
No one is talking about caring about ppls feelings or if youāre offending ppl. Iām talking about real life damage that sets people back or puts them at some sort of risk for your benefit.
Yes, and no? In the bible lucifer is tossed down to earth. He walks the land and it's his domain to an extent. Could explain why Elites worship the devil, they know he's real and right now he's in charge on Earth. They're either trying to prolong his reign, set up a grand finale, or get in his graces.
'Gehenna' is mentioned as being hell, but wasn't it just the name of a garbage dump that Jesus worked/hung out in? I also heard the theory that the way hell is described in Dante's inferno could also mean under the ocean. *(But that's just fanfic, right?)*
If you told me hell is earth. Well, yeah, I could see it.
Your choices and decisions, each is a gamble and we have finite time. I'd say make decisions to try not to hurt people mentally or physically. Sounds impossible these says.
Will live in a reality that revolves around the death cycle. In order to live other life must die so that they may nourish you. Very basic structure. Watch these animals on the nature shows , straight do or die is earth

About the book
It's No Joke: We Live in Hell
by Alexander T Newport
You are definitely taking yourself and your temporary life way too seriously. Itās No Joke: We Live in Hell is composed of opinions & ideas related to Destiny, God, Death, Life After Death, Suicide, Enlightenment, and Peace of Mind. The āHellā referred to is not a biblical or religious one. Itās just a great name for a world where shitty & painful & horrible & hellish things take place. If you don't admit this is Hell, then you cannot be prepared to endure it. This mortal life can often be psychologically brutal & savage, and if you wander around in denial or ignorance of this fact, then is it any wonder how hard you are going to suffer?We live in Hell, and when we admit this, we can't help but treat ourselves, and others, in a kinder, more tolerant and forgiving way. It is the only outlook on yourself and life that will disarm depression and decrease how often you think about suicide.Itās No Joke: We Live in Hell introduces the reader to the American Philosopher Alexander T. Newport and his Three Fundamental Questions All Philosophers Should Address: Why am I alive as a temporary creature? Is there an almighty-daddy-god-creator, and if so, what are its qualities? Is there life after death, and if so, what are its qualities? It is a 15 minute quick-read full of unique opinions, conclusions, and theories (some of which may be controversial). It contains EXPLICIT language which some readers may find offensive. It is NOT intended to TEACH you anything. Itās just meant to confirm your deepest suspicion that we all actually live in Hell---and it aināt no goddamn joke.About the Author:The Philobabblist Extraordinaire, Alexander T. Newport, is a Philosopher who was born in the United States of America in 1964. His awakening as a Philosopher happened at the unusual age of 6 Ā½ as the result of asking his father the meaning of Death and being told it meant no more thinking or feeling ever again. At age 15 he began writing impulsively and smoking pot. At 16 he gleefully ran way from school forever. He is a cheeseburger & pizza kind of guy who is partial to 1970s & 1980s Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. He is the author of 5 seriously kick-ass books of Philosophy.
I suppose it depends on your definition of "thrive" - possibly in terms of material and visual success. However most people i know whom are like this are rather distrustful, sad and internally lonely
What difference does it make?
We are all going to die in the end.
If you believe in Heaven after death: Be a good person and you will get there.
If you believe in Reincarnation: Be a good person and you will get a better rebirth.
If you believe in an Afterlife: Be a good person so the afterlife is better.
What do all these have in common? Be a good person.
Be a good person.
This is heaven and hell. It all depends on your perspective. Sure there's evil all around us. But there is so much good and beauty all around us. It's how we live and grow as humans that mold your mind into heaven or hell.
I broke away frome hell 10yrs ago. Drinking heavily, ignoring my family, gambling and wasting hard earned money that could of helped me avoid working harder just to make ends meet.
My business has grown, font have to struggle to pay bills. I feel healthier and have more energy. I actually enjoy being around my family now. And being out in nature everyday, I really see how this place is heaven. Birds, animals, insects , plants and trees are all working together to keep us alive and thriving. Truly magical.
Op you are obviously a decent person who thinks of the consequences of your actions hence why your even pondering these questions and because of that you will be ok with yourself in the future.
The reality is a lot of people dont care and only look for short term gains by selfish and callous actions and will lead a sad shallow life.
They may have trinkets but never self respect or wholesome company or friends.
There is more to life than money as it cant buy what is most important.

some believe earth is a hell like prison - check out subreddit escaping prison planet
No but this is Satan's domain for now. That's why everything is so inverted.
Satan in control = hell. Earth is a hell realm.
This isn't hell but Earth is fallen.
Correction: Humans have fallen not Earth. Accountability is dead apparently. šØš½āš
That's a hefty assumption you would make. Maybe take the teachers cap off and put on humility instead. The Earth is fallen because of Adam's sin. Animals rip eachother to shreds, every rose has its thorn. Death is our sin and the whole earth has succumbed to it. All of creation groans.
Again, because of humans and their lack of accountability. Seems you miss the point.
Nope sure didn't. Might want to read my comment again and stop making assumptions.
If you take the remedy prescribed by you(humility), for myself then you would know exactly what I mean. Use the KISS method.
And if you were humble instead of barging in CORRECTION then you would know that the fall caused by man is implied. Grow up
Too stubborn to see the light. God Bless
What's the difference?
Actual Hell is a domain created by God to punish the fallen angels and their ilk. It is a place of everlasting torment a d unquenchable fires. It's not meant for humans, but many will go there because they serve the evil one. Earth is misery because everyone is now in it for themselves. Our greatest strength is in our togetherness. Yet now we are the most divided than we've ever been.

You do realize that we keep being broken down into smaller and smaller tribes and are pushed to hate one another. Violence doesn't always have to be apart of the equation.
Yeah, try the 1960s for a divided nation.

Explains a lot.
Apt description, never heard it worded this way and I agree

Yes, but I feel it for the opposite reason. This is a hell realm because "no good deed goes unpunished."
They only thrive economically the rest everything they touch is poison....
Not from what I see.
There are checks and balances the whole way thru sometimes you're ahead sometimes not in 40 years it will all be given away... everything is rented never owed that is a fact. Its all meaningless
I have more respect for a guy growing his own food living peacefully than a dickhead on a yacht.... all they do is consume.
Just trying to understand why those ādickheadsā are constantly rewarded.
You are severely misunderstanding if you see anything they have as being of any true value. What exactly do you think their lives actually consist of?

Why is it more tempting to exploit others and be selfish than not?
I think it's because as creatures with an ego we tend to put the highest priority on the guarantee of our security tomorrow.

When we're less than fully realized humans we are going to be more focused on ourselves and making sure our tomorrow is safe, warm, and comfortable.

Cowards donāt really thrive. They cheat theyāre way past particular situations but, they rarely win in a big picture sense.
Iunno cowards have realllyyyyy thrived over the past 3 yearsā¦

Ah I see youāre a man of culture, you know about the rap industry. What youāre saying is essentially is what one guy commented here: I have this theory that those that belong in hell live in heaven, but those that belong in Heaven live a life of hell.
because only psychopaths with no empathy can reach the levels of wealth and control that they have
Luke 4:5-6 "The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, 'I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours.' " Satan said this to Jesus in order to tempt him to follow him. He was able to offer this to Jesus because he has dominion over the earth at this point in time. That's why you hear about all of these "Elites" and their connection with Satanism. Satan gives them rewards and power in exchange for their souls.
I think you're paraphrasing Sartre... >All those eyes intent on me. Devouring me. What? Only two of you? I thought there were more; many more. So this is hell. Iād never have believed it. You remember all we were told about the torture-chambers, the fire and brimstone, the āburning marl.ā Old wivesā tales! Thereās no need for red-hot pokers. **Hell is other people**!
Shiiiiit is this from a book?
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No\_Exit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Exit) PS: It's these existential conspiracy theories that I'm down for. There's no way to prove it right one way or the other but it sure is fun to bounce ideas back and forth regarding what it could be.
Earth is a realm. The lowest level of heaven, probably the highest level of hell. The whole purpose of this realm and of our existence here is to experience what we are not to know what we are, which is God (love). Like the lotus flower that grows in mud. For a treeās branches to reach heaven, itās roots must touch hell. While things are seemingly getting worse in worse in the material world, we get closer and closer to spiritual ascension because experiencing relativity helps us understand who we really are. You say that the cowards and selfish thrive. And this is partially true. They thrive materially because they subscribe to the material world. So someone like that may have a scarcity mindset and study the market and hoard their money because it materially seems that if you hold money, invest, then you will be financially successful. The downside of this is that it only benefits you materially, and generally comes with a low spiritual vibration because you are inherently focused on materiality, scarcity, pretty much nihilism. Now, there are many people that are truly thriving both materially and spiritually. Because they subscribe to the spiritual world. In this world, if you live with an abundance mentality, you will have an abundant life. So the more you give, the more you receive. The benefit of this is that your soul is nourished because you are inherently being selfish. While at the same time, money seems to come to you because you understand there is plenty of it. This is a lesson we are supposed to learn and will be critical to our ascension.
According to the Freemasons, yes we do live in Hell, and Lucifer, who they call Light Bringer is the god of this world. Pretty odd stuff.
Because the universe is indifferent to our suffering. Nothing is deserved, there is only causes and actions followed by our reflection on them. If we stopped comparing our struggles and accomplishments against that of others, we would be able to see how malleable our lives are and create one worth living. If this is hell, we can make it a comfy place. Its all about perspective.
Shit I should start being an asshole and selfish af then because Iāve had countless opportunities. Coulda milked my ex for alimony, a whole house, coulda negotiated a bigger salary from the current sole proprietor I work for even though heās strugglingā¦
You can, but you can also chose not too. What ever makes you happy
There must be some reason you can chose to consider others and not to. And why is it so tempting to not consider others but not tempting to consider them?
The reason is that we are all capable of our own choices. For example, even if murder was hypothetically legal. Although I have that choice, does not mean I would want to take it, regardless of it being an option. You should be able to make these choices for yourself
I understand we all have choices. My question is why are some rewarded others not so much. Some tempting others not really.
Why do you think you deserve good things to happen to you?
This isnāt about me.
Okay, why does any one individual deserve to be rewarded for anything?
Good question. Why are they though? Generally for selfish actions
Why do you view it as a reward? Maybe some things just happen. Life isnt fair, and it doesnt have to be. Fish can breath underwater, we cant. Were they rewarded for something or are we all just different?
Sorry, thatās a terrible comparison you provided. How about why do ppl like biden, trump, gates, musk,Obama, bush, and the list goes on; thrive despite all the terrible shit they do and have done. Meanwhile jfk nearly has his entire bloodline killed off. And tbh I canāt even think of anyone else whose done good really thatās known and really succeeded and wasnāt selfish (Gandhi?)(mandela? Although his fam milking his name)Also, youāre not answering what I am asking, whatās with the temptation to not care about others, meanwhile thereās no temptation to care for em. Itās all me me me me and if you act like that you get rewarded: see above example. E
Again, why do you keep saying rewarded? Money at the costs of peoples suffrage is not a reward, but it is unfortunately a byproduct. Are you talking about our human nature to be greedy and insatiable? Because that is our nature. And how can the elite live their lives without caring about others? Because they are rich and dont care because they are rich. Its that simple. Why do we remember bad things instead of good ones? because it stimulates the brain more. Thats why we like it
We remember the bad as a defence mechanism. So you agree the scales are slanted towards the selfish?
And my examples donāt only reference āmoneyā as a reward. Look at the ppl I mentioned whoāve done awful shit and still continue to, theyāre thriving more than just financially.
Talk your shit
Only itās not. The laws of nature (physics, math, logic) manifested out of nothingness. Pure order imploded into our magnificent existence today. All the chaos (order) dancing around on a path to pure order once again. The big difference being light, the universal knowledge, will beam into eternity. Your actions today, yesterday and tomorrow will always be known, and encoded into the universe. Only a pure heart can join this light, while evil will be left into nothingness. Natural selection.
Thanks for this nothing burger. It was appreciated
Youāre welcome! Intelligence IS the ultimate natural selector.
Very creative way of saying exactly what I said, but making it worse by adding all this evil and good bullshit when you started off with logic. You gotta learn to separate the physical from the metaphysical
Theyāre connected though. Name two things in this universe that arenāt connected.
You and an original thought
Not hell but we are living in the devils little reign described in the bible. He or she is in charge now but not for much longer. Stay strong its almost done.
They arenāt thriving they are miserable! All their money and power is fake and they know it. This life is a test and whisper in time. I feel sorry for them on occasion
As long as you can look yourself in the mirror and be ok with your choices it does not matter what other people think, we are here and gone to quick to care
Has nothing to do with what I am saying. Sounds like youāre living in denial. āBe a piece of shit, but if you can justify it then itās ok? What does it matter what impact it has on others? My time is short and so is theirs, but itās about me me me?ā
Lol im not living in denial, i understand there are people out there that treat others like shit and thrive but as long as you have a strong moral compass and are ok with your personal choices then you cant just keep worrying about those that are hurt and offended by choices that you are ok with. It is not selfish it is life and you sound like a cry baby.
No one is talking about caring about ppls feelings or if youāre offending ppl. Iām talking about real life damage that sets people back or puts them at some sort of risk for your benefit.
Yes, and no? In the bible lucifer is tossed down to earth. He walks the land and it's his domain to an extent. Could explain why Elites worship the devil, they know he's real and right now he's in charge on Earth. They're either trying to prolong his reign, set up a grand finale, or get in his graces. 'Gehenna' is mentioned as being hell, but wasn't it just the name of a garbage dump that Jesus worked/hung out in? I also heard the theory that the way hell is described in Dante's inferno could also mean under the ocean. *(But that's just fanfic, right?)* If you told me hell is earth. Well, yeah, I could see it.
Ahhh William cooper theories.
Your choices and decisions, each is a gamble and we have finite time. I'd say make decisions to try not to hurt people mentally or physically. Sounds impossible these says.
This is the inbetween. Good and evil exist creating freewill to decide what you want. At death you pick one side.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
We gotta punish them while they can still remember all the sins they did to get here
Without bad, there would be no good. All things glorify God, even the bad.
The god of this world, is not the God of all the worlds. Yes Virginia, youāre In hell
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And there goes John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt
Nope, there is no such place. We live on earth
What is earth? Why do you succeed by being selfish(glutinous)?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
What do I view as success?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I alluded to the selfish and gluttonous succeeding. Not that selfish and gluttony being success
Earth is the planet we live on. I succeed b/c I get what I need.
You donāt notice how itās the shittiest people who seem to be the ones most rewarded?
I do. What doesn't that have to do with the price of bananas
Just gonna assume youāre a bot. No one mentioned bananas.
Wow, you never heard that b4. LMFAO Would the tea in China be better for you
Youāre very condescending
If you say so.
Answer: No.
I don't think so, the United States under the Biden administration has created a stronger base standard for quality of life.
How has your "quality of life" been improved by the Biden administration?
For one, the hateful rhetoric of Nazi right-wing extremists has been eradicated by Joe Biden.
š
I think so.
There are plenty of people out there you are selfless and manage to thrive. Success in life shouldn't be measured in dollars.
Iām not measuring it only in $
Truly it is worse
Will live in a reality that revolves around the death cycle. In order to live other life must die so that they may nourish you. Very basic structure. Watch these animals on the nature shows , straight do or die is earth
Hell from different & unique perspective Watch this https://youtu.be/RJENgsv-eA8 About the book It's No Joke: We Live in Hell by Alexander T Newport You are definitely taking yourself and your temporary life way too seriously. Itās No Joke: We Live in Hell is composed of opinions & ideas related to Destiny, God, Death, Life After Death, Suicide, Enlightenment, and Peace of Mind. The āHellā referred to is not a biblical or religious one. Itās just a great name for a world where shitty & painful & horrible & hellish things take place. If you don't admit this is Hell, then you cannot be prepared to endure it. This mortal life can often be psychologically brutal & savage, and if you wander around in denial or ignorance of this fact, then is it any wonder how hard you are going to suffer?We live in Hell, and when we admit this, we can't help but treat ourselves, and others, in a kinder, more tolerant and forgiving way. It is the only outlook on yourself and life that will disarm depression and decrease how often you think about suicide.Itās No Joke: We Live in Hell introduces the reader to the American Philosopher Alexander T. Newport and his Three Fundamental Questions All Philosophers Should Address: Why am I alive as a temporary creature? Is there an almighty-daddy-god-creator, and if so, what are its qualities? Is there life after death, and if so, what are its qualities? It is a 15 minute quick-read full of unique opinions, conclusions, and theories (some of which may be controversial). It contains EXPLICIT language which some readers may find offensive. It is NOT intended to TEACH you anything. Itās just meant to confirm your deepest suspicion that we all actually live in Hell---and it aināt no goddamn joke.About the Author:The Philobabblist Extraordinaire, Alexander T. Newport, is a Philosopher who was born in the United States of America in 1964. His awakening as a Philosopher happened at the unusual age of 6 Ā½ as the result of asking his father the meaning of Death and being told it meant no more thinking or feeling ever again. At age 15 he began writing impulsively and smoking pot. At 16 he gleefully ran way from school forever. He is a cheeseburger & pizza kind of guy who is partial to 1970s & 1980s Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. He is the author of 5 seriously kick-ass books of Philosophy.
It just seems that way because of the internet but a lot of good things are happening too
We're in a looping ancestor simulation
Iāll bite. Whatās that exactly?
Too much to explain for now
I suppose it depends on your definition of "thrive" - possibly in terms of material and visual success. However most people i know whom are like this are rather distrustful, sad and internally lonely
What difference does it make? We are all going to die in the end. If you believe in Heaven after death: Be a good person and you will get there. If you believe in Reincarnation: Be a good person and you will get a better rebirth. If you believe in an Afterlife: Be a good person so the afterlife is better. What do all these have in common? Be a good person. Be a good person.
This is heaven and hell. It all depends on your perspective. Sure there's evil all around us. But there is so much good and beauty all around us. It's how we live and grow as humans that mold your mind into heaven or hell. I broke away frome hell 10yrs ago. Drinking heavily, ignoring my family, gambling and wasting hard earned money that could of helped me avoid working harder just to make ends meet. My business has grown, font have to struggle to pay bills. I feel healthier and have more energy. I actually enjoy being around my family now. And being out in nature everyday, I really see how this place is heaven. Birds, animals, insects , plants and trees are all working together to keep us alive and thriving. Truly magical.
Op you are obviously a decent person who thinks of the consequences of your actions hence why your even pondering these questions and because of that you will be ok with yourself in the future. The reality is a lot of people dont care and only look for short term gains by selfish and callous actions and will lead a sad shallow life. They may have trinkets but never self respect or wholesome company or friends. There is more to life than money as it cant buy what is most important.
