Okay but alchemy isn’t real

it's metaphysical

Ok.

So the backpedaling

Eliminated God completely from the expression.

Its just void and chain of reactions at that point.

How can alchemy be metaphysical

What are you converting

Alchemy can be metaphysical if you use metaphors.

And what are you metaphysically converting

Conflating physical improvement with intended improvement of character.

What

well, after the fire is flung into the void it sets off a chain of elemental reactions creating nature and leading upwards to peak creation

Sounds like a bunch of pseudo intellectual bullshit

@Dong can I get a optics check from you

Ok

Fire

Is it seperate from the void?

From where is it flung is all is void?

@Dong optics check pls

The term "fire" is now similar to how the term "God" was used before.

It still implies god or fire is seperate from void.

it's connected

It gives reason to believe being may be seperated from void.

it's the first building block

It still doesnt justify the claim I questioned.

Void being synonymous with being.

Interesting.

sounds like a bunch of gnostic gibberish tbh

Its fun to question.

I gotta drive home ill be back

it's hard to explain but things can come from absolute nothing, or the void. it's extremely difficult to understand what it was that bought forth the existence of whatever that came from the void

Finally dong with my optics check

It’s extremely difficult to understand because it’s a bunch of made up bullshit

My dude

I’m gonna go buy a Harry Potter wand and tell people what house their in and that’ll have more validity than the “void”

it's hard to convey, is a better statement

it's 'physically allowable' that something can come from the pure vacuum state in quantum mechanics but I'm not really too sure about the technical details of that

I didnt know dong was doing optic checks for dilly

Haha

Yeah ask him to do them
