Lies are better than the truth
The world would obviously be a better place if everyone were theist and not anti-theist. Why? Because God created all that is and to be against God is to be against all that is. It's the very definition of evil itself to be opposed to something. It's evil by definition not to praise the creator of all that is. It doesn't matter what that creator created or how it works, but if you are against creation, then you are evil. Hence I am evil, because I think the world is a shit show and that if there is a God, God made as many mistakes as s/he/it did anything else. I'm evil. End of story.

Re: Lies are better than the truth
God hates me and is going to send me to hell because I don't worship him/her/it. Where did I go wrong? Was it being born? Was it bickering with my parents over mowing the lawn? It was probably bickering with my parents over mowing the lawn. However, I'd probably do it again if I had the chance. So that makes me unrepentant. And that's evil too because it's opposition to God. In this world, there is but Good and Evil, God's Will and not God's Will. And I'm evil. And on top of that, I don't hate socialism. And socialism is evil because Marx believed religion was the "opium of the masses".
I've seen that light. IC cannot save me. I'm too far gone.

If only that were true. Would it help to say verdict accepted?

I hope this is meant at least mainly as ironic.

Re: Lies are better than the truth
Well, you're the one calling me an "attention whore". That can't be a very complimentary thing to say to someone. Seems more like an insult. Am I misunderstanding? Were you intending to "help" me in some way?mickthinks wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2026 4:15 pm You’re blaming me for your mental problems, Gary? Really?

No, you are exhibiting your character defects.

That’s just what an attention whore wants.

Re: Lies are better than the truth
WTF is an "attention whore"? Is that supposed to be a philosophical or psychology term? Is that anything like someone who is posting unprovoked insults on an Internet forum? Find someone else to pick on.mickthinks wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2026 7:05 amNo, you are exhibiting your character defects.
