This is a thread to discuss God and religion. One I didn't see created.

What are your thoughts and views on God, if any?

My relationship with Him is complicated, as I used to be Christian but have far strayed and no longer worship Him to a certain extent.

You won't see any of this faggotry in Mea Shearim or orthodox jewish towns, Israel's birthrate is single-handedly being carried by haredi kikes having 8 goblins each, meanwhile christianity has been completely wiped out of western countries, no place to escape other than the middle of a forest or a desert, and the government will try to make your life impossible so that you go back to the city.

succubi should be treated like children until they can prove they deserve adult rights. There I said it. Most succubi have the inner life and personal integrity of a child and should be treated as such. Possible avenues that they could attain rights.

I've frequented this place before but not as much, and I would go on Kohl instead. You've probably heard of it as the "pedo" chan but it's actually a bastion of free speech and the pedos are relegated to their own generals usually. Anyway I'm here to tell you that I'll be getting a helium tank delivered because I think I've reached an impasse in my life. I don't want to get into it since it kind of embarrassing but I made one very very bad decision and I'm afraid my whole livelihood is at stake. It was indirectly created by my father. But it doesn't matter, nevermind it. There are other things that I'm worried about concerning this life like the rise of AI, UFOs (I personally was contacted by one), life being a simulation, etc. Basically everything. It's just alot of things on my mind and also I'm quite a dysgenic human being having autism and irritable bowel syndrome, I don't think I'll be able to sustain myself for long. I also might've had some trauma early in life since I can't remember much of my life either. I know it was inconvenient for most of it, which is probably why I can't remember it. Or maybe, I'm drinking too much and I've lost too many bracrabls as of late. I've been drinking for 9 years straight. I'm currently 30. Don't have any friends or a gf (in fact never had one), I don't chat with my mother or my siblings either. My family divorced early in my life btw.

In truth, wizards, I do want to die. But what prevents me is not knowing what comes after and I have often told this to those on other forums, especially Kohl, but they were not able to alleviate my worries about it very much. Since I feel like I have no choice now I will be trying to go through it when the time comes but I still need to know what comes after. If any of you have any idea please let me know.

Turned 30 in May.
Whichever way I cut it I've been on the passive suicide train for a while now I think, not consciously.
I let my body decay to the point where I'm feeling it's irrecoverable.
Funny how I used to think I could never get back to "default" or zero no matter what efforts I'd put in, then got infinitely worse and now I might just be correct.

I don't know what prevented me from taking action. It's not like I wasn't an absolute outcast at all stages of life so I never really had to care about optics.
I wish I knew why.

I also don't want to die. I'm desperate about not wanting to "not exist" anymore even though most here probably hope for such a fate.
I just can't fathom this long line of experiencing things to stop.
Just thinking on it causes some primal sense of panic like you are approaching some sort of void and your body cuts of your mind before it gets too close.

Anyways… Weird that I don't want to die yet I'm not exactly doing anything about it. At this point I have so many ailments from inaction it's not even funny.
Disc slipping/bulging everywhere in my spine causing agony and my muscles are close to if not already in stages of atrophy causing various weird painful sensations and issues one might not even expect.
Why am I like this…

I had one dream where I was certain I died and it was not fun. No thoughts, no sensation, yet somehow still aware. Aware but unable to process or experience. Contradictory. Painful. Not physically, but in some soul tearing way.
I don't want that again.

hope you ordered pure helium which i heard isn't straight forward to acquire at all.
all the people claiming god is watching or whatever i don't think are right,
if god exists he makes me wanna kms every day to "build character" ok, yeah right.
i don't believe in some magical heaven if im being honest. i don't see how the most logical conclusion is that your brain creates consciousness and when you die it turns off.

Thesis:

Engagement with structurally advanced texts and excellent rhetoric trains and temporarily optimises the mind into recurring modes of organization, attention, abstraction, and inference; repeated exposure can temporarily or semi-durably bias cognition toward those modes independently of propositional content.

Or in simpler terms, in the same way that algebra & calculus trains the mind towards logical and methodical thought in the long term, I believe it's possible for works of illustration, music and literature to do so in the short term. If this is true, then it's advantageous to catalogue such art-efacts and optimise exposure to them.

I'm not talking about the first order; "no duh, I read something that told/reminded me of facts and now they're at the front of my attention" or involuntary emotional responses, I'm talking about the temporary mental structure. Meditation or such like, if it works, seems to work by selecting for facts and details, voluntarily emphasising inputs to get desired outputs. It should notionally be possible then, to exercise the mind in such a way that one or more patterns of thought and emphasis can be either cold stored, or reliably reconstructed with inputs on demand. I think genius lies in being able to do this at will and not rely on outside props, but i'm not a genius.

The inspiration for this idea came from reading Robert Carlyle in the morning and consequently having a very organised and effective day at work, but I've noticed it much earlier in the second and third novel of Kai Lung. In the later case, the pleasant but none-the-less non-trivial effort of very complex English usually leaves me in a "well spoken" state for quite some time. I originally put this down to simple mimicry but perhaps there's more to it.

Thoughts? Examples of useful material?

If this is true, consider the darker side - that it's possible to artificially construct and reinforce dysfunctional frames of mind, not just overloading the memory and attention with noise and conflict, but actually implant a structure of thought - at scale. If this was so, how well does it explain modernity.

>I believe there is some higher order function that such a process of reading and understanding something either requires, or constructs. And that it is temporary or otherwise transient as the mind resets to a baseline. If so, learning is essentially an outcome of said structure's operation and I think that without the structure you only get rote knowledge.

there are a lot of factors that will influence your ability to make sense.
-your experience. you get better at anything you do repeatedly. if you have a history of already having made sense of things it becomes a quick and efficient process of looking at whatever you are dealing with from as many perspectives as you are able to view from and ask all the questions about it simultaneously. the more you do it, the more of your brain will light up.
-the health of your brain as an extension of the health of your organism ranging from how glued your brain is to how much electricity is available to your brain for this nervoussystem activity
-the amount of energy based on priority your body will unlock for the query, from a shallow quick search to a deep long constant thought-process
-how busy the brain currently is
-how active or inactive other processes are that might interfere, override or prevent nervoussystem activity
-how willing you and your body are to spend energy on the process

other then experiencing meditation, which you would very much enjoy, you would love how higher levels of human health feel in terms of mental clarity.

compared to a normal average person with normal industrial age habits: someone who knows how to optimize the health of the human organism is basically feeling super sayan without the exciting visuals though changes in hair color can be part of it.

Here's my better wiz thesis: of the many ways for cognitive enhancement, NICOTINE, yes, nicotine, is one of the few compounds SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN to do anything. W-woah wiz, step back, n-nicotine is addictive, and– we'll get to that, you meandering soycuck. What is fascinating about nicotine is its easily acquired and it works. Yes, you can buy caffeine, but who here hasn't heard of caffeine? The studies showing nicotine can boost cognition are remarkably robust. It's even been shown to be effective in ADHD.

Think about that for a moment. You have a disorder where the primary first line of treatment is strong, pharmaceutical grade stimulants, yet nicotine is still effective alongside it. Isn't that interesting? As for addition, nicotine is significantly less addictive than smoking. The reason for that is compounds in tabaco are synergistic with nicotine. It's why you don't really get a buzz when you take nicotine by itself. I've even read studies that show that nicotine isn't addictive at all. Keep in mind: they are talking about tabaco at all. They simply give nicotine to people who haven't taken it before and didn't see dependence.

So this is my thesis: the simple answer to cognitive enhancement is quite literally just nicotine. You have to do it right though. It's a very short acting stimulant and transdermal patches will avoid the crash.

Now see this is fascinating and the omg think of the children brigade successfully drowned out this information such that i'm only learning it in my 40s.

Suddenly I have an understanding of how America accelerated as hard and fast as it did - with the majority of the male population smoking during work hours as a matter of normality. Low level slow release concentration aids would absolutely be life changing, institutionalising it throughout the knowledge worker population would be society changing.

Have you been neglected in you yearly childhood too? I've come across pic rel some time ago by accident and scrolling to this pic made me think I was actually fundamentally broken not by aspergers which wasn't actually that bad but rather by being neglected by mom which didn't even want to hold me when I was crying or talk on difficult subjects. Every stage presented does so perfectly wrap up all my developmental disorders it makes me feel like this framework was made just for people like me (except last 2 cause I'm too young to experience maturity and middle adulthood). Maybe some anon would consider it interesting. I've been to therapy actually and it helped me a lot but I lost my job and I don't have any money left, I'm just neeting at parents place

>Compare this to the current average confused twenty-something and you see this isn't really true
You are really overestimating the confidence of the average 19th century young adult. People were not confident, they were forced. Even Nietzsche was lamenting how german education forced young people to choose one career for life too early in life when they are still clueless (he was talking about early 20 somethings!). In that respect we haven't changed the least. We just have more room to wiggle in since college is easier to get into and is now adult daycare.

I am not a full wizard yet, I am still young however even at a younger age of 24 I felt like I have already seen and done everything worth doing. I watched enough anime and movies, played enough vidya of every genre to satisfy someone for a lifetime. I scrolled enough on my phone for 4 people. Eventually I got bored of media consumption so I pursued other things like hobbies. I learned a language, an instrument and beginner coding in game dev and I felt again like it was enough. Learning things became boring, its the same baseline thing every time of encoding brain meat with specific patterns over and over. Skill progression of anything is basically the same. I got bored of those hobbies, I picked up exercise thinking it would give me more energy however after finally getting to the point of jogging a mile I stopped. I'm fine with how I look and I don't care how others see me so its as if there wasn't a motivation, just putting myself under duress without reason aside to live longer doing boring things. I quit. Eventually, I thought it was the NEET life that I became sick of, so I got a job at a gas station as well as a construction company both parttime. I was able to play my part well for a NEET of 7 years. I even got invited to barbecues and other outings and had many conversations with others. I thought that maybe finally I could fill the void but that feeling of boredom started haunting me again. Within months I was done, the jobs were all the same the people saying the same things and everyone doing the same things over and over. When you live with nothing for so long you get used to it, there was nothing I wanted to buy with my money. All of it stacked up in an account that I am now currently living off of as I left both my jobs and my relations with others. Neetdom is much easier to be bored in than a place where you stare at the time all day being bored.

I only feel as if I am wasting my life if I am bored. If I die tomorrow I would only regret the moments I felt boredom. I tried it all, jobs hobbies people exercise. None of it made me feel anything for long, it was as if I was solving a novel puzzle, it occupied my time but once it was "solved" it was just another puzzle for the pile. I don't understand, towards the end of my jobs I even started to try narcotics just to feel something but they were nothing. Mushrooms, meth, alcohol. Nothing. All I do now is learn about medicine and watch surgery videos, I find it fascinating but I know Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

What you are describing is a lack of a sense of purpose and meaning in your life.

Typically people derive this from their community and the role they play within it. Someone who starts a charity defines their purpose by helping others. Someone who starts a business defines their purpose by the things their business accomplishes for people. Other people derive it from creating works of art or new inventions. There are many ways to get purpose and meaning, all of it comes down to what you actually want to accomplish in life.

You sound like you haven't given that any thought at all and are therefore going about life all wrong. You don't seek out challenges just for some sort of character building purposes. You naturally have to overcome challenges in order to get whatever you want out of life. Some people develop a sense of what this is from a very early age. Typically these people end up being the most successful in their field. If you look into top performing athletes and stuff they will always say from a young age they desired to be an athlete in their sport. It's the same for most other stuff.

If you are naturally lacking a strong drive for yourself and your life, you just have to give it some deep thought. No one can tell you what you want out of life, that's for you to figure out.

It's become broadly harder for people to do this thanks to the industrial revolution which wildly changed how people lived their lives. We are still in a transition phase where we have changed the way we live but we still have instincts that are suited for pre-industrial life. Mostly people just had to focus on surviving, and that was the main purpose of peoples lives. For many this is still the case, but only because we have built up artificial mechanisms to mirror the act of surviving while in fact all our basic survival needs are taken care of by the vast excess provided to us by industrialized society. Now we have to pay rent and other bills so we are forced to wageslave, and for most wage slavery becomes the purpose of their life. Getting a higher wage and avoiding getting fired gives them purpose.

This doesn't work for everyone though because it is still an abstraction and if you can see through the lies of society, it just becomes a bitter pill to swallow. Ted Kaczynski talked about this some I think. For him the solutiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I'm in a similar position that I haven't escaped so…
I don't think this will help, but I've reached a conclusion (at 30 now) that it is time to focus on output and limiting, heavily curating input.

A lot of the things you mention are still input oriented. So for example the productive hobby you mention being programing, what did you create with it?
Language, what information did you convey using it and to whom and why?
If the answer is nothing, then you just consumed information for no reason. Might as well have jerked off at that point.

I feel like personally all my bandwidth mentally has been taken up by consumption, because there is just so much stuff out there that even if I no longer get a "high" from it, it's just easier and more comforting to live in fantasy land why scrolling through manga.
Reading stuff on here is also still mostly input with no action taken based on it.

Every day there is so much stuff that gets filtered through my brain that I have absolutely no use for.
I'm trying to limit it heavily and focusing more on action, utilizing knowledge, only learning more about something if I need to and only as much as I need to get to where I want to be.

I'm also now trying to create and share my creations with others instead of just consuming what others have created.

I guess a TLDR would be that it's easy to feed endless input/information into your brain daily while barely if at all processing it into anything useful.
I feel like a lot of more competent wizards that have this weird anhedonia/burnout thing might relate. Then again, this is mostly just my subjective experience, don't want to paint you with my brush or whatever the saying is.

- There's not that much trash. A lot of what you see on the ground are birds and sprouting dandelions

- The buildings are diverse, with modern compact office space responsibility integrated among historical townhouses

- The black clad people are most likely schoolchildren of a Catholic school with a dark uniform, and those wearing parkas to keep the rain off.

What do you guys think of Prison Planet Theory ?

Some people are so fed up with suffering on earth, so they came up with this theory to cope with reality
personally I think it kind of overlaps with the wizards philosophy

there is even a subreddit dedicated to it

and people seriously thinks they are prisoner in this planet

The worst thing is that humanity doesn't recognize his status of prisoner but truly believes that consuming all resources of the planet is something we must do in order to "progress" towards general well-being. Imagine a prison run by prisoners, this is what earth has become, and when resources run out there will be famine and misery everywhere.

Sure, you would already be able to propose several interesting bills to rewrite the rulebook, but you still be a guy who has to stick to Da Rulez O'Da Man.
