i would have preferred to be able to edit first post instead of bumping thread ftr i deleted the religion i created because i don't like the practice of needing to have foundations written down it makes things kinda static and prevents evolution in my opinion was an interesting experience tho

Pascal's wager seems to be just about to suggest to believe in god, so if it/he/she exists, then you will get rewarded because you did believed in it, practiced rituals etc sound like a coward practice to me like not listening to what you think, but just act by the book, and hope the person who created universe will be nice with you if it exists how can you really believe if the idea is "if it exists", this is contradictory imo | | | Anyway i enjoyed sharing my thoughts with you guys, as always

I did read a bit the definition and it seemed to me a synonym could be relation, link... After thinking again it seems to me what you meant is that Pascal’s wager says free will exists and controls everything you do, and what i said is that it doesn't exist and it's the fatalism that controls everything you do Please let me know if i still don't get it i see it this way: external factors > your brain > act/think So i get what you mean, think/mind listening = listen to external factors I would say your mind/brain orders/filters external factors, depending on other external factors ---------- Excuse me but it seems to me that having no conscience means not being conscious and means being dead You meant sociopaths have no regrets maybe Maybe when they miss an opportunity to hurt someone, they regret having missed it? Maybe when they miss the bus they regret not having wake up early? Not feeling guilty doesn't have to mean you don't feel regrets E.g. "it's not my fault but i wish i didn't do it" ----- Hmm for real not for me, i really believe 100% of things that i think and do, have a reason, they are just not coming purely "from me"* I believe when you born you are like an empty box, some are bigger boxes than others, some are thicker Then life puts stuff into this box, then the box will react, according to what life did put into the box I think the good and the bad the box will do, is not caused by the cardboard, although it is acting The question is why it is acting like this -> i shared my opinion above *but yes i guess i understand, you meant e.g if you drop a glass = oops sorry my bad (reflex) But why did you drop it... i mean reflexes can change | | | Anyway it seems to me it's obvious that if you don't believe in free will, you "should" believe that you shouldn't feel guilt (doesn't mean you (manage to) don't feel it in the end) I mean it's pure logic to me......

sorry, i don't understand the relation between the two, neither what a god would have to do with what i said I agree but in my case, the logic of the thought i had, the thread's title, allowed me not to feel guilty for nothing anymore it's probably because i really believe in this logic. Maybe if i wanted to do that and would do it, i wouldn't feel guilty afterwards because why i would have done it, because i'm just a bad person? or because life made me do it? life drove me crazy? ------ That makes me think about religions, i'm not sure, but it seems to me religions say free will do exist, then the logic would say you should feel guilty for bad things you've done, things that do not match the holy books' rules i feel lucky not to believe in this, and listen to my heart and my mind instead

I did read a bit the Wikipedia article / Ctrl+F, i see nowhere mentioning free will doesn't exist, and that you should feel no guiltiness In my opinion, every single thing you do, is influenced by something, i believe in freedom, but since i believe everything has a reason, i consider myself like a spectator, i act but all of my acts are done because of influences, so i don't believe in free will i don't lie to myself, i prefer being sad and afraid than lying to myself i really don't believe in free will, so i think then i shouldn't feel guiltiness, lucky for me

For those who don't believe in free will, like me, do you feel guilty sometimes, do you drag some guilty feelings since long time? That was my case before yesterday, i realized i don't believe in free will, so why should i feel guilty That don't mean i don't feel sad anymore, and i wish some stuff would have gone differently And that don't mean you can become a monster either i guess thinking like that, can make that you don't have to feel guilty anymore, but if you don't want to feel sad anymore/counter this at least a bit for short times, you still have to try to do what you think is good

Thanks for the link LaurieAG, it seems maybe more accessible there than in some others places In my case i wouldn't want to be assisted for this, i would prefer to do it alone, and my body never being found That sounds interesting, i use to think maybe when you die, you have as reward to finally understand what was life -------- i think setting up a date, a method, can help to live fully, help to do things while you still can, instead of thinking i could do it later when taking this choice, you could still do it later, but you know when you couldn't do anymore, and it seems to me it can have as positive effect to motivate you to do these stuff instead of always keep for later, and probably never do, i hope someone see what i mean another positive effect can be that you know you will not be a burden i think it can help to make peace to decide your exit

Hi First i'm not sure to understand if here we are allowed to share what we feel, what we think/believe, to discuss and discover established concepts, to go deeper and learn If not then sorry i will find some other forum, and will come here only to ask what was this and what was that, to obtain some Wikipedia links, and will keep the thinking part for somewhere else So, we are in the Philosophy category, seems to me it's related to thinking, sorry again if i didn't read the definition of philosophy before opening this thread I wanted to share this idea, which seems to me to be philosophical, and maybe adapted to discussion To decide the way you will die Instead of trying not to think about how you might die, being afraid of it, what about choosing how you will die What could be the positive effects of this in your opinion ? In my case, i don't want to die old from a disease, with strangers washing me everyday I would prefer to shut down myself before that, that makes me feel a positive effect but i struggle to explain right now i feel like choosing how you will die, can help to chose how you will live... like if having control on your death, can help to have control on your life... Some people say, you don't know what will be tomorrow, so enjoy the day But if you know in advance it's the last one, seems to me you will take more of it, than a regular day If you know you will cause your own death, and when, could that help to enjoy the life more...

i hate when people sell and buy pets, i have a lot of contempt for this act, except maybe for the 15 years old kid who don't have his mind very developed yet so i think this contempt/hate has as positive effect: motivate me to try to remove their ability to continue to do this otherwise if i would not contempt/hate, i would kinda don't care, would have much less motivation to act to change things so i guess contempt makes your convictions stronger, and pushes you to act to change things What would it be like to never contempt? Maybe it makes you not very devoted, passive, not changing things a lot, not passionate

if i didn't contempt stuff, like spitting on the ground when passing by people, or buying pets, i wouldn't care, maybe i would do to i believe contempt makes your believes strong, and participate in diversity development i believe it makes you engaged into stuff, very implicated So to answer the thread's question i would say : You wouldn't really care about things you think is bad, wouldn't be very devoted I try to never share my contempt in a hateful way, imo it spreads negative waves, i instead try to explain calmly why i think the thing is bad, while maybe burning inside, i believe if you can't prevent yourself from exploding, it provides a weak result

he said in your his opinion

Thank you for sharing your thoughts I think religions can provide some rigor and pride, some healthy lifestyle, but those i use to see really disgust me, i wanted to offer to people one that i think is better it's just few foundations, not a big book of fairy tails unfortunately the url to the book (html) got deleted foundation n°3 is I do no translate my religion, but people can use google translator if they don't understand its language and would like to I would like to develop n°3 Let's take something that i think is bad, horrible, and everyone think it's bad too it's never 100% everyone tho, someone did the thing, he said in your opinion it's good, he even feels pleasure doing it i'm not aware of some physical law, to prove i'm/we are right that it's bad, of he/they are wrong

i posted the non clickable url so people could see the content of the religion i created, if they wanted to i posted this thread not to advertise my religion, but hoping to read some feelings / opinions about what i did and why i did it because sometimes i like to see what people think about what i do, to debate and learn about myself, i think it's positive i don't think the content of the religion is the most important here

Hello, i'm regularly disgusted and angry when seeing some religious people, so i decided to create my own, so i act instead of just suffering Yesterday i was against religions, i don't know all of them tho Today I created the rhism, RH being my initials So i'm now religious, i'm rhist What do you think about this act ? the book of the religion is hosted on a simple webpage, at url deleted, if you are interested about reading the content I feel so much better now, having concentrated what is most important for me, and i feel that if some people would practice it, that would make the world better Tomorrow if i see some people talk to me about their religion, try to convince me etc, i could just say i don't like their religion, i have my own, it's also like a slap to their (imo) cowardness

Since some time i was wondering what would be the pros of contempt, could it provide positive I used to think contempt is only some tool to make you feel better than the others, so some sign of weakness Now i believe contempt makes your believes more solid, and then increase diversity because if you didn't contempt, maybe you just don't care, and then nothing would happen, it would be flat

That was exactly like this Wikipedia photo! (i forgot to mention the moon seemed low) Thank you very much!

Hi About 5 years ago, i think it was a morning, I was walking on a small countryside road in north of France Then I looked on the side and I saw the moon being very huge compared to usually It scared me, i think it looked about twice the size as usual I don't remember well, I took no photo, I think the size decreased pretty quickly, i don't remember well Would someone have an explanation/assumption/idea about this? Could that have been some reflect/visual effect? I think it was during a cold season Regards

shouldn't dogs eat like wolfs?

I understand, I should have explained less deliriously, and written a clear question I'm sorry for the aggressiveness and the off-topic

@swansont Are you able to confirm that you closed my thread because the info provided was not useful as part of a discussion? Or because it was my personal info and not references from a journal? Or is it because I merged the info with feelings? Could you please be clear?

I don't understand your phrase Do you mean like if I read in a journal someone's words about how a drug interacts with the body, then we can continue to talk about it here? I'm not sure to understand what you mean by references, I expected the info in my thread to be "references", such as - 350µg - like the beginning of a video, being rewind to the ultimate beginning - yellowish light - reassuring - [...]idea of good or bad, like it cancels I made a reference about the feeling of reassurance, isn't that a reference? ___________________ Don't people talk about reassurance and bright light during Near-death experiences? (this is not a real question) I can understand that you don't like my way of telling my experience, such as the extra info like "I felt I saw like the source of the universe" But I don't understand that you mean this is not useful as part of a discussion, I would appreciate if you help me to understand. Me what I guess is that the way of telling the experience and the extra info added, probably due to the fact the experience happened like just 24h before, made you miss some info as the above, that imo can be useful to understand what was that But again, if I don't understand that this is not useful as part of a discussion, I would appreciate if you help me to understand.

Restart linking data to my account, like when you just create one To decrease the risks that some people get influenced by other posts I made, when they would write on the new threads I would open To increase the focus on the thread and the the efficiency of the shared information ________ I mostly wanted my account to get deleted after my report thread on a lsd experience got closed, I expected the community to be able to express themself if they had some ideas about what kind of phenomenons happened to me, such as states of mind that are studied, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death#Scientific_research... Btw I'm surprised we can talk about religions but not about drugs Would that mean that if lsd was not illegal, you wouldn't have closed my thread Would that mean you let governments decide what you can study The disappointment was over but it just came back after realizing this The only messages i received on this thread was 1 like the one from Sensei above I mean provocation, like they are smarter And the other one was from a moderator meaning the references are not useful as part of a discussion In this thread I didn't write "Could you help me to understand what happened to me?" because I felt embarrassed/disturbed Would that have prevented my thread from getting closed? (this is a real question)

i appreciate your explanation i guess that only the website owner could change this behavior i like to restart from scratch sometimes, without having to use another email address for that

why i can't delete my account? i don't ask my messages to get removed i was thinking i could delete my account and then create a new one, using the same email address so i guess i would first have to change the email address of my current one, then drop it then i could create a new account using my real email address if you propose to manually do it, please don't but add a button so everyone could i think keeping only posts but deleting username/avatar/signature etc, would be good.

Hi Yesterday I took a 350µg LSD tab obtained from a trusted source on Tor I didn't sleep since like 10 hours, then took the tab, after like an hour the effects started getting felt I'm used to stay laying on my bed in the darkness, listening to music using noise canceling headphones, the kind of music like Clozee does I didn't take some since like 6 month, I don't drink, neither smoke and such At some point I felt better than usual, I felt like I hear much more the music details I started thinking about what would be connecting everything, then I thought the last barrier to understand is to break the time/go beyond it. Then in my mind I started seeing a source of all, a bit like the beginning of a video, being rewind to the ultimate beginning And then, still eyes closed, I saw a yellowish light, it was so powerful and reassuring I don't practice a religion, but it felt divine, it lasted for few seconds, made me cry, started again... Some time after it felt scary, I started thinking: so is it good or is it bad? I couldn't tell, there was like no space for this idea of good or bad, like it cancels It was like there was everything, like an infinity. It was all yellowish in my head. I felt I saw like the source of the universe, like a singularity. It was violent I heard about Ego death and Near-death experience, I guess it's something related to this that I experienced...
