Truth Seeker

Those who have, do not want to share with those who do not have. So sad.

I have never related to time. In what way do you relate to time?

I don't understand what you mean. Please explain how time is negative.

That's so interesting. Thank you for sharing your insights about time. According to physicists, time is not on its own, it exists as spacetime.

Yes, the Replicators in Star Trek can make almost everything. Sadly, it's fiction. We don't have an implementable solution to the problems of sufferin...

That's wise. Thank you for sharing.

I see your point. In that case, how do we solve the problems of suffering, inequality, injustice, and death?

I agree that "Star Trek: The Next Generation" is a work of fiction but it still shows a society free from money. The food, the drinks, the clothing, t...

Have you watched "Star Trek: The Next Generation"? They don't have any money. Humans didn't have any money when we were hunter-gatherers. There are st...

It should be democratic and there should be a separation between the government and religions. Policies should promote environmental sustainability, t...

You could create a local branch of the Humanist International in your location. I think the whole world should be one egalitarian country.

Thank you for clarifying.

That's great. You probably have a local humanist organisation depending on which country you live in. Try Googling for it.

I am experiencing the present continuously. As are all living things. None of us can time travel to the past or the distant future. We are all moving ...

How about https://humanists.international ?

I agree that many of the stories in the Bible are plagiarised. All religions were made up by people.

I am so sorry they deleted your entire discussion. That must be so annoying. The first discussion I posted in this forum was also deleted. I don't kno...

I understand. Thank you.

I am not talking about our memories. I am talking about physically visiting another point in the past and changing events e.g. going back in time and ...

I am in the present continuously, not in the past. I am living the 12th of May 2024 today, not some day in 2023. What you said doesn't make any sense ...

I have seen photos of black holes online - doesn't that prove they exist? Why would they only exist in eternalism and moving spotlight? I don't unders...

I agree with you. If the past still exists, why can't we visit it and change it?

I thought Moving Spotlight was the same as Block Time Theory. Sorry, I have not presented them well. I did the best I could. Reality gives me a headac...

Thank you for your reply. There is no reasonable ground for things like solipsism, simulationism and illusionism even though these are ideas we can co...

Glad to hear it. The reason for my fantasy is that the world is full of suffering, inequality, injustice, and death. Inequality, injustice, and death ...

I understand your motive. Thank you for sharing your experiences. I listed my experiences because, in your first reply to me, you said: "I have no ide...

I agree.

I am so sorry for all your suffering and loss. Two of my friends with Bipolar Disorder took their own lives as the illness is so hard to live with. Ma...

I agree.

I would not be destroying anything. I would be preventing. For something to be destroyed, it must first exist. You can't destroy something nonexistent...

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. So, are you a deist or a polytheist or a pantheist or a panentheist? I am an agnostic about the existen...

That's fine. I have not asked anyone to agree with me about anything. It matters to me what Buddha taught. I agree with the concept of Anatta which is...

I am not convinced that God or Gods exist. Are you convinced that God or Gods exist? If so, which God or Gods exist? How do you know this?

You would not say that if you had my genes, my environments from conception to the present, my nutrients from conception to the present, and my experi...

Truth is truth. There is no separate religious truth and factual truth or rational truth or empirical truth. Religions claim a lot of things are true ...

I don't know. I didn't claim to be all-knowing. I am going by what I have observed on Earth. I am merely exercising my imagination, nothing more.

On the contrary, religions claim to be true. "Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."...

You could be right. You could also be wrong. I think you are more likely to be wrong given what we know about brains and how they work.

Hope you win. Good luck!

Most religions rely on faith instead of evidence. Buddhism is an exception in that Buddha's original teachings are based on what is empirical.

I agree. It is futile.

I am glad you love the idea. It's a pity that this can happen only in our imagination. I could give each all-loving, all-knowing, and all-powerful bei...

I agree.

Thank you for the proposal. I have created such a thread: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/15185/changing-the-past-in-our-imagination If you ...

I don't understand your reply. Please explain. Thank you.

How could religions be true when they contradict themselves and contradict each other and contradict what we know from evidence-based research? Please...

If solipsism is true, why do I have memories starting from age four to the present? Surely, if I am the only entity in existence, my memories would go...

Thank you for the link. The article reminded me of laboratory experiments where mice stimulate the pleasure centres in their brains until they die. Wh...

I agree with you.

The believers of a particular religion believe their religion is true. They also spread their beliefs to their children. There is often a steep penalt...
