Near death experiences

[JayUtah]

They are soul defining experiences.

Rape is a soul-defining experience? Well, yes, in a way...

The universe is love.

Except for all those times you get raped.

 

[arthwollipot]

None of these acts have unbearable pain. They are soul defining experiences. The universe is love.

How do you know?

 

[JayUtah]

How do you know?

Hm, maybe no one in his immediate acquaintance became suicidally depressed after being raped. Because pop-psychology GIFs make everything better.

How do you know?

We get over it.

 

[arthwollipot]

We get over it.

How do you know?

 

[slipknot0129]

How do you know?

Because hell is only in the imagination.

 

[JayUtah]

We get over it.

How many people do you personally know who have been raped? Abused as a child? The victim of domestic violence? Innocent victim of war?

Don't be shy. Tell us all your success stories.

 

[Craig4]

We get over it.

Oh, please, do tell, what do you have to get over, observing life from your basement?

Don't be shy. Tell us all your success stories.

That's all stuff we can get over. It love why we live in such a good world.

 

[JayUtah]

Because hell is only in the imagination.

As is heaven in your model.

Most religions invent a hell to scare their followers into obedience. But psychologically we also like to believe in a hell as a punishment for people who are evil in this life and, in our opinions, need come-uppance in some form. It satisfies a sort of platonic desire for justice.

Where do rapists go when they die? What if their idea of heaven is raping your sister for all eternity? Love fixes everything, right?

 

[JayUtah]

That's all stuff we can get over. It love why we live in such a good world.

You avoided my question. How many people do you personally know who have undergone the tragedies I mentioned. I want an actual number.

 

[JayUtah]

It love why we live in such a good world.

We do? Have you ever been to a war zone?

 

[slipknot0129]

We do? Have you ever been to a war zone?

Yeah we live in a perfect world. Reality happens because it wants to define your eternity.

 

[Craig4]

Yeah we live in a perfect world. Reality happens because it wants to define your eternity.

Ever been to the Congo?

 

[JayUtah]

Yeah we live in a perfect world. Reality happens because it wants to define your eternity.

I've mentioned a few possible eternities that you haven't commented on. Why not? They don't fit your Pollyannaverse?

 

[Steve001]

Folks I think the joke is on us. We are being played.

 

[arthwollipot]

Yeah we live in a perfect world. Reality happens because it wants to define your eternity.

How do you know?

 

[JayUtah]

Folks I think the joke is on us. We are being played.

We clearly are. That doesn't mean it isn't mildly entertaining for those who participate.

 

[slipknot0129]

How do you know?

Because we don't experience unbearable pain.

 

[arthwollipot]
