Fake Messiah. You speak as if many people of faith and their religion are really bad. But I think, religion help a lot of people.

Seemingly so but perhaps, at least, someday they won't. Transhumanism, if it happens, will hopefully deal with people's fear of death in a better way than just belief in bullshit. In my view, false beliefs are never a long-term solution. I mean, they're not even a short-term solution really. They're a short term crutch.

The supernatural isn't probable/improbable. It either exists or it doesn't. We won't know until we leave this world.

And what's that look like if you do believe? Do you or do you not believe in the Christian god? Or is there another god that you believe in? You seem to play both sides and the middle, depending on the day and the conversation. “If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room.” — Confucius (February 26, 2022 at 7:41 am)arewethereyet Wrote:I hope there's an afterlife where I can fulfill all of my (let's face it) evil desires. I do not believe in the Christian God. I am prone to making gods out of humans. I've even written prayers centered around a couple people.(February 26, 2022 at 7:37 am)Ahriman Wrote: Yeah that's just an opinion. The supernatural isn't probable/improbable.
