Logic leaps huh? Here's a recap of our conversation.

It can't be here can it?

Here is where our circular conversation starts.

So where is my logic leap? Are you sure it's not just you being intolerant of other people's opinions?


Again I appreciate that you would like us to begin talking solely about you but it's not the purpose of the thread so kindly stop.

You can't explain all your comments towards me? Because I really think they were poorly veiled insults. You derailed your own thread.

You repeatedly criticized me of not knowing anything about the topic and refused to explain further when pushed, because your comments were nothing but disingenuous assertions. If you're not going to make them anymore though, then I'll return to the topic.

This implies that God only put us here to what he wants us to do, and knows what we're going to do before he even creates us. I don't see how anyone who reads that passage, and actually believes it, can call it anything but slavery. Sorry religious folks, but free will is a zero sum game. Either we have free will, and no one knows what will happen from one moment to the next, or free will is an illusion, which means life in our universe is nothing but a scenario created by higher beings to reap some benefit.

Another issue I have with that passage, is that if God did know the future before creation itself, then doesn't that mean he created a very large number of souls knowing full well that they would disbelieve, disobey, and end up in hell for eternity?

As a serious answer? I don't really care. I'm currently making it up as I go along, and will continue to make it up as I go along until I find something that I find purposeful.

So, really, I reckon whatever outside force is shaping the universe has made us all to come up with a good improv routine.

Not existing seems like it wouldn't really leave you any room to feel hard done by by the change in state.

Not existing is not existing. As something that exists I would like to keep existing. Is the act of not existing not something you would want to avoid?

Yes. Not existing scares me.

I don't know who this "Abortus" fellow is, but I'm pretty sure he was in the country legally.

My parents had sex, and nine months later I was born.

As for my purpose? I don't have a purpose.

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???
