Just wondering if anyone else out there does not necessarily believe in God, but believes in a fifth dimension beyond 3d space and the fourth dimension... I have schizophrenia and constantly hear voices coming from the sun, celing fans, etc... and believe that it is aliens or something from another dimension... My therapist assures me that it is just what is hardwired in the back of my brain, but I think it's something more... What do you guys think?! Am I still an Atheist if I believe in higher dimensions?

Thanks,

Fred

Higher Dimensions do exist but we cannot access them enjoy the limited time her in the third one. Watch Interstellar it should clear up some things.

What if the part of the brain that asks the question doesn't know, but the part being asked knows the answer? We hide stuff from ourselves all over our brain, even if we have no disorder. Like sometimes we don't let ourselves know where we put our keys.


It has to be a question which could only be answered by someone who can freely move in a dimension where the rest of us are fixed.
For instance... If your friend can look around the corner to next Tuesday and PM me the winning Powerball numbers.
I'll share. Smile
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh

Whatever you do, if you catch yourself going through another dimension, do NOT under any circumstances bring a Bag of Holding with you.

My nerdy gamers buddies will understand why.

Or a portable hole!

Ah yes, the D & D years. It's been a long time (1989) since I indulged.

Good to know!

I barely know you rexbeccarox but for some reason, I can just see you fitting into the sixties just fine.

I'm more of an eighties fan myself. Golden age of popular music.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

There was this hilarious skit on George Hrab's podcast where they hire an 80s cover band for their party, and they start playing and it's some divertimento or string quartet or something, and they're like, what is this, we thought you were an 80's band. And they're like, of course, we play the best tunes from the 1780s, what else did you expect, our band name is after all "rock me amadeus", isn't that pretty unambiguous?

Anyways, carry on

That is pretty funny.

Great new picture, by the way.  Maybe we should start calling you "Herr Doktor Merkwürdigliebe."

That's why the question has to come from someone else, so that there is very little chance of him knowing the answer even in his subconscious mind.
