Sure, reincarnation *could* be a thing.

2018-07-31 18:53:41 UTC  

because its essentially the philosophical predecessor to the pragmatists that led to objectivism

2018-07-31 18:53:45 UTC  

Same with something like the Big Bang, or the multiple theories about the origin of the universe

2018-07-31 18:53:47 UTC  

Like those police body cameras

2018-07-31 18:53:50 UTC  

in the sense

2018-07-31 18:53:51 UTC  

But on the other side of death, there's no way of knowing.

2018-07-31 18:53:54 UTC  

did you not accept the sun would come up every day, before you even know the model of the solar system?

2018-07-31 18:54:05 UTC  

do you not accept your car to start when you turn the ignition

2018-07-31 18:54:24 UTC  

nobody rejected the sun coming up Cytos

People rejeced that we circle around the sun, instead of the sun around us

2018-07-31 18:54:25 UTC  

you cant pull up a chair to a table, without assuming when you plant your ass, it will hold you

2018-07-31 18:54:38 UTC  

Honestly I will take any thing over just ceasing to exist

2018-07-31 18:54:39 UTC  

Now, as per the key to avoiding Nihilism, you have to accept the moment you're in.

2018-07-31 18:54:41 UTC  

you obviously never sat on a childrens plastic chair as an adult 😄

2018-07-31 18:54:41 UTC  

that the pragmatists looked to answer the problems that Kant brought up with both the reality of feels and reals

2018-07-31 18:54:46 UTC  

im just saying that the "i only believe things empyrically proven" thing is a lie

2018-07-31 18:54:51 UTC  

no its not 😮

2018-07-31 18:54:58 UTC  

how even perception is flawed just liek how emotions are

2018-07-31 18:55:02 UTC  

there are things you can not have seen the proof for, that you do use

2018-07-31 18:55:09 UTC  

because that proof does not yet exist

2018-07-31 18:55:20 UTC  

If you live a life to reduce the suffering of others, up until the day you find out what happens on the other side of death

2018-07-31 18:55:30 UTC  

Peace

2018-07-31 18:55:37 UTC  

What have you really lost?

2018-07-31 18:55:42 UTC  

im not saying you cant maximise this.. edict

2018-07-31 18:55:46 UTC  

proof of existance doesn't equal proof of outcome Cytos

I don't need to test my car to believe it will work next time i turn the keys around

2018-07-31 18:55:54 UTC  

@>Cytos, de lieve goede synth Dude, I do not need to understand how an engine works to accept that a car can turn on

2018-07-31 18:56:07 UTC  

how about a lamp

2018-07-31 18:56:08 UTC  

I mean isn't there some sort of unprovability theorum or something?

2018-07-31 18:56:10 UTC  

even then, five minutes on wikipedia

2018-07-31 18:56:12 UTC  

FIVE

2018-07-31 18:56:36 UTC  

well you do need to have an understanding to the point that you know how to turn a car on

2018-07-31 18:56:38 UTC  

you cant learn mechanics and physics and chemistry involved in a car in 5 minutes lmoa

2018-07-31 18:56:52 UTC  

You can learn how an engine operates

2018-07-31 18:56:52 UTC  

but even if you could

2018-07-31 18:56:54 UTC  

which is still an understanding hof how a car works, regardless of how low resolution and incomplete it is

2018-07-31 18:56:55 UTC  

🤔

2018-07-31 18:56:56 UTC  

the basic principles

2018-07-31 18:56:57 UTC  

you can actually

Just gotta know the concept of physics, chemistry and energy transferance

2018-07-31 18:57:00 UTC  

you cant do it for everything you do take for granted

2018-07-31 18:57:11 UTC  

but this actually relies on teh faith you have that it will work either way

2018-07-31 18:57:16 UTC  

there is too much proof, and not enough time

2018-07-31 18:57:30 UTC  

there also is not enough proof, in theory, for a being with infinite time
