Challenging the Atheist belief

[Darkstar]

What does that mean?

Reality according to who?

You...I think. You said:

If that external object doesn't fit your minds idea of what it should be, you suffer. If you are attached to the car, its lose brings you suffering.

So if you want reality to be: "car in my possession", and the car is stolen, you feel bad. Accurate enough. But then you said:

But if you do not identify with the mental labeling that something tragic just happened, then you can be in the state of unconditional love.

Perhaps I misunderstood you. Perhaps by "do not identify with the mental labeling that something tragic just happened" you did not mean "pretend it didn't happen" and instead meant "don't care that it happened". Which...isn't that much better. You can't arbitrarily change reality to fit what you want. Sure, you can tell yourself you don't really need the car, but when you have to walk twenty miles in the snow to work the next day, you may reconsider.

Can't you see you're internally fighting what is?

Isn't that what you're doing?

You're defending your right to be miserable based on your external world. That's insanity.

It is insane to not reject reality when you don't like it? Are you sure it isn't the reverse?
