Quote: The acts of a serial killer are horrible while the wonders of nature are something beautiful.Hardly, you've repeatedly asserted that the serial killers satisfaction is part of the only real good. Doubling back around to describe it , now, as horrible, is pointless. Only one can be consistently true, and you seem a little unsure of where you're at or how to get there even though you've been thrown the lifeline.
Quote:But we then must turn to the inner universe. This universe would be our conscious reality. This is a vital and precious universe that should never be dismissed or overlooked. You can have all the fancy things in this world and your outer universe could be the greatest and most beautiful luxurious paradise. But as long as your inner universe is sheer hell and empty, then none of these fancy things would amount to anything in your life. Your inner universe would, therefore, not reflect your outer universe of a luxurious and beautiful paradise.No one has to overlook their vital and precious inner world to disagree with your nonsense.
Quote:I think people are too focused on the outer universe and don't focus on their inner universe. Most people drag their lives on in states of misery and think that such a life is beautiful and good to them.-and you;re here to tell "them" that they;re all deluded, yeah...yeah, we got it.
Quote:Even those famous and genius miserable artists did this as well. Just because they inspired others and changed the world to something beautiful does not somehow magically make their inner universe filled with the beauty, goodness, and joy of the inner light. As long as your inner universe is devoid of this inner light (positive emotions), then your life is truly nothing. You can think and believe that your life is beautiful and good all you want to. But such words alone can never possess the power of the inner light or the inner darkness.
If I had to choose between the bullshit you've posted and a van Gogh, the choice is easy. The contributions of those you deride appear to be far more effective than anything you've offered at producing the positive emotions that you hold in high regard. If the quality of your respective works are an indication of the depth and value of your experiences, then it's clear that you're the emotional cripple in this equation.
