I don't believe God has direct control or influence over the Universe or is a conscious being but I nonetheless believe the concept of God to be an extremely important idea that must be upheld, since it serves as unifier to all the dissonant aspects of reality in a way that simply describing it as the Universe cannot.

2018-12-05 22:13:38 UTC  

like the Amish, the Mennonites

2018-12-05 22:13:40 UTC  

just be spiritualist

2018-12-05 22:13:48 UTC  

Not follow a named god

2018-12-05 22:13:56 UTC  

believe in a supreme being

2018-12-05 22:14:01 UTC  

Nameless

2018-12-05 22:14:18 UTC  

>believe in a supreme being
Nah

2018-12-05 22:14:28 UTC  

I am atheist

2018-12-05 22:14:32 UTC  

So I don't care

2018-12-05 22:14:39 UTC  

Either way

2018-12-05 22:14:41 UTC  

The Übermensch?

2018-12-05 22:14:56 UTC  

Ubermensch is a goal more so than a supreme being

2018-12-05 22:15:02 UTC  

yes

2018-12-05 22:15:20 UTC  

or become atheist and and follow the one true individualism

2018-12-05 22:15:26 UTC  

but perhaps it could be met on a individual level?

2018-12-05 22:15:31 UTC  
2018-12-05 22:15:34 UTC  

Feels good

2018-12-05 22:15:35 UTC  

Well that's the idea, yes

2018-12-05 22:15:45 UTC  

Ubermensch is an idea not a metaphysical contradiction in the way that god or an ascended diety is

2018-12-05 22:15:47 UTC  

I also believe the human consciousness to be the closest connection in the Universe to God, and that God is an expression of the shared underlying Human consciousness

2018-12-05 22:15:56 UTC  

@Rouqen yea it does

2018-12-05 22:15:56 UTC  

The Ubermensch is part of Nietzsche's post-God outline, basically

2018-12-05 22:16:25 UTC  

@Dvir Humans still have to correspond to laws of reality

2018-12-05 22:16:39 UTC  

its a concept in the philosophy

2018-12-05 22:16:49 UTC  

Our bodies do, but there is an undeniable dissonance between reality and the human consciousness.

2018-12-05 22:17:02 UTC  

No check your premises one is wrong

2018-12-05 22:17:43 UTC  

Also they can evade reality but not the consequences

2018-12-05 22:18:15 UTC  

The consequences still occur outside of the consciousness and are then transmitted back to it.

2018-12-05 22:18:28 UTC  

Since consciousness in itself is a very ephemeral concept and we have yet to quantify it and it is likely we will never be able to quantify it in a conventional manner.

2018-12-05 22:18:36 UTC  

Ewwwww.

2018-12-05 22:18:42 UTC  

Are y'all niggas gettin existential.

2018-12-05 22:18:47 UTC  

Consciousness is not quantifiable.

2018-12-05 22:18:59 UTC  

Well, actually, I suppose that would be wrong.

2018-12-05 22:19:29 UTC  

when I do magic mushrooms, I feel very spiritual, its like I can feel love with my eyes, lol, its in the nature, the clouds and little cutesy buggies on flower petals 🌈

2018-12-05 22:19:32 UTC  

You can count consciousness, but you can't measure its magnitude in concrete amounts.

2018-12-05 22:19:45 UTC  

Count the neurons

2018-12-05 22:20:02 UTC  

Consciousness counted

2018-12-05 22:20:27 UTC  

Mushrooms can mess up senses but it cant change reality

2018-12-05 22:20:34 UTC  

If you have no idea what you're talking about, is that consciousness's fault, or your own?

2018-12-05 22:20:36 UTC  

A single neuron is not conscious

2018-12-05 22:20:43 UTC  

Oh boi
