The logical consequences of omnipotence

[Ryantology]

Your world view dictates it. It's what underlies your reasoning. Of course in the short term there are benefits to positivity. How else would you see the potential in my world view, and how would I reason to hold it?

You make assumptions based on your inability to understand. I find it entirely possible to be positive, long-term.

If anything, I think we have it better, because we can be positive about real things. Our happiness doesn't require an imaginary crutch to sustain it.

I'm not saying it's impossible for you to know happiness. I'm saying the bigger picture is bleak ... because you can't reason beyond the ultimate fact of injustice which over arches your world view.

There is only ever justice where humans make it. Justice is a human invention. The world is not just. Nature is not just. Your god is not just, either, not by any standard I or any sane individual recognizes.

What sustains your contentment, when the going gets tough? What resolve can you dig deep into to get you through? I'm not talking about some fake hope of something distant. I'm talking about a reasoned assurance shaping my thinking now, in the present.

I can't speak for everyone else, but when the going gets tough, I find contentment in knowing that, as long as I don't sit around wasting my time (yunno, praying) and actually take steps to improve my situation, it is likely to do just that. I rely on good friends and the love of my family. You truss your worldview up in frivolous nonsense like some spiritual Honey Boo Boo, but if you take that away, you're probably not any different from us.

Why feel the need to attack that?

It's a lie, and you use it to make yourself feel superior to us.
