Doomscrolling is literally destroying your capacity to connect with God at a neurological level. Prayer requires the kind of deep sustained attention where you can actually sit with silence and emptiness without reaching for a dopamine hit. But when you're constantly swiping through an endless feed of rage bait and shitposts your brain gets rewired into this fragmented, consumption-based mode where you're just bouncing from stimulus to stimulus. You can't pray when you can't focus. You can't hear God in the silence when your internal monologue is just a stream of half-processed Twitter arguments and TikTok videos. The whole digital medium is designed as an addiction machine that directly antagonizes the contemplative attention that religious experience demands. It's not even about the content anymore, you could be scrolling through Bible verses and it would still wreck you because the medium itself trains you to consume rather than contemplate. Pretty grim when you realize your relationship with your phone is functionally incompatible with your relationship with the divine.

Take your meds

People hearing your "god" has committed the worst atrocities imaginable

The bible and its epic scale catastrophes and plagues not to mention its future revelation and eternal lake of fire nonsense is pretty much the original doom scroll.

I suppose I've always been too autistic for that aspect of religion. Ever since I was a kid religion has not really felt like anything at all. I was active churchgoer until my adulthood because of my religious parents but genuinely could not describe what "spiritual" even means, I have never experienced it.

Did Almighty Jah tell your pop to spank you and send you upstairs without breakfast last night little man??

You could just stop taking the internet seriously. Honestly, if we just taught people to stop taking the internet seriously, then most issues involving "doomscrolling" or misinformation suddenly go away. I think with the rise of AISlop it might even be easier to convince people just how much of a joke and a waste of time the internet actually is.
>>
>>18347863
The problem with doing that is that you are under a system of governance filled with state secrets and legal fictions that is even more fake and gay than the internet so that the internet and even most video games are "more serious" and a closer reflection of daily observable reality than mainstream politics and the information being released to the public, by design.

>the internet and even most video games are "more serious" and a closer reflection of daily observable reality than mainstream politics
This is the biggest load of horse shit I've ever read. There is no way you aren't underage.
>>
>>18347874
There is no way you actually follow politics and read the horseshit they have been trying to release as factual where holding a phone to document reality in an objective way is a form of domestic terrorism when it contraindicates the "official" narrative.

>where holding a phone to document reality in an objective way is a form of domestic terrorism
Yup you're definitely underage. Come back when you turn 18 dude.
>>
>>18347882
You definitely don't follow politics, come back when you have read some ICE press releases justifying slaughtering citizens in the streets.
>>
>>18347882
If you want to keep it historical, just look at the horseshit they release about magic bullets and indestructible passports in some of the most historically impacting, security shifting events in modern history.

>"The internet is closer to reality than reality itself"

You're too far gone and there's no saving you. You deserve to spend an eternity doomscrolling for being so goddamn stupid
>>
>>18347896
>than reality itself"
So your "reality" is that some assassins have access to bullets that can magically defy physics, some terrorists have magical passports that survive fires that take out entire buildings undisturbed, and some phones become deadly weapons if you are documenting an active crime perpetrated by a state actor?
>>
>>18347921
My reality is that planes flew into buildings and they collapsed. The fact you're even jumping from subject to subject like this tells me your brain well and truly is fried beyond repair by internet posts. Like I said, you deserve to spend the rest of your life eating slop on your feed.
>>
>>18347924
>jumping from subject to subject
I am not, I am still on the subject of official political narratives that don't make less physical sense than some video games and can't possibly align with objective reality, so the internet has provided far more reasonable explanations as a result, even if they are also a bit physically unrealistic. The fact you don't understand what I am talking about shows how fried your attention span is and how you are the hypocritical retard using the tool just to complain about it.
>>
>>18347936
>that don't make less physical sense t
started with make less physical sense and moved to don't make physical sense but forgot to remove less, so read as don't make physical sense.
>>
>>18347936
I know the internet is a poor reflection of reality. You believe literal slop that's fed to you by an algorithm designed to attract actual schizos.

That's just your own personal incredulity, and you're more likely to believe some non-expert talking head on a podcast because you're a very easily manipulated person. No offense
Instead of listening to "official political narratives" and actual retards with microphones and cameras on a computer, I suggest you take a step back, and ask yourself what purpose the information being fed to you actually fulfills. Because if the point is clearly just to ragebait you and get you to believe you've stumbled upon some hidden knowledge that isn't actually applicable to the real world, it's probably bullshit and should just be ignored. The only reason 9/11 truthers exist is to sell you books anon

I pray the rosary daily now. It's completely changed my life. I recommend all others reading this to do the same.

Just try it. And be consistent.

The relationship with an imagined concept being interrupted isn't that consequential.
>>
>>18347995
>Formimg relationships in your mind with the concept of morality isn't that consequential.
This is why the liberal secular world is falling apart.
>>
>>18347921
insane strawman btw. God is fake and gay but i can agree with you that western politics is mostly a show and that we the people have no say in ie 2 million marched against the iraq war, a week later UK declares war on iraq because fuck what the non-ruling class wants
>>
>>18348023
Its not though its the fact that the public institutions aren't even as good of truth tellers as schizos on the internet.
>>
>>18348028
That's why the public institutions have brainwashed you into calling the truth tellers schizos.

I grew up with a Catholic father who abused me, and it distorted my vision of Catholicism so much I feel like I can't practice it nor believe in it since then. Do you have any advice?
