I want my girlfriend to not be a hylic. I want to look into her eyes and know something behind them is looking back at me.
>>83477356you should read stuff like this in the second person
>>83477356>NPCs are "shallow, narcissistic, egoistical"Funny that most people I've met who think they have a spirit and people they don't like are NPCS are giga narcs with a huge ego.
>>83477411This is such cope. It has to be true for somebody. Imagine you have a favorite food, and you say that it's your favorite food, but then I respond with some shit like "You're a giga narc for pointing it out!"
>>83477449This idea that you are inherently so much wiser and so superior to a high % on Earth is literally extremely egoistical. I have never seen someone of true value say that. Someone beautiful, kind, wealthy and intelligent. It's always average bums.Anyway, I believe everyone has a soul.
>>83477458Because you are retarded and a NPC incapable of creating.
>>83477482So true. And you're definitely not a coping loser who wants to feel "le special" because he has little other things going on his life. Glad we agree.
>>83477458I try not to buy into the NPC shit, but when you realize just how stupid and shit the majority of the planet is, it's hard not to feel like a main character.And I'm not even that smart, I'm only in the top 3% of IQ at 128
>>83477503This just seems to be a general view though. Almost EVERY person alive thinks "man almost everyone is dumb and shit besides me and a few people I like" so like... what does this even mean at that point?If you are actually in a higher IQ bracket then at least you have some evidence behind that thought, in your case. But most people in my experience do not. So it just seems like a very generic assumption that is natural to humans.
>>83477482What have you created, anon? What counts?
>>83477458Soul and spirit are different. I speak of the Divine Spark, not of the soul.
>>83477525How can a human have a soul and not be real? What does soul even mean at that point?
>>83477516that's a fair point, but maybe it's even obvious to people of average endowment how fucking stupid the entire earth is. Hell, they are already smarter than half the population.Funnily enough, most NPD people I have met have been humble about their intelligence, but that's probably because they were vulnerable narcissists.
>>83477503Strange how some people find it easier to imagine a smart non-person than a dumb person
>>83477553It's often more advantageous to be underestimated.
>>83477539Soul translates to "anima" in Latin. Soul (read: soul energy) is what animates physical bodies, but it does not provide a spark of consciousness. For the sake of brevity and clarity, I will compare the soul to the electricity that powers a computer. With that idea in mind, consider pic-related.
>>83477563That's fair. Humble might have been the wrong word as I have known many that were straight up insecure about their intelligence going so far as to be distraught at how "dumb" they are despite being very obviously above average intelligence.I'm dealing with one who's like that now but she's also very manipulative so it could very well be a ploy to make her seem innocent.
>>83477576Why can someone with consciousness not be selfish, hedonistic or evil? Or is less likely to be? All that is can only be because God made it possible. The Demiurge couldn't even fathom anything that God didn't fathom first. So these are all parts of God's nature or imagination.
You'll use love as the last card of your deck, but even then, you'll see there's no meaning to that either.
>>83477594>Why can someone with consciousness not be selfish, hedonistic or evil?Individuals with consciousness can be selfish, hedonistic, or evil. One differentiating factor between conscious (Divine Spark-possessing) and unconscious individuals is that conscious individuals possess qualities that supersede their personhood. One example of a category of qualities that can supersede personhood are the virtues: generosity, honesty, selflessness, etc. If someone genuinely possesses these qualities (and only the individual themselves can be aware with 100% certainty that they genuinely possess it or not), then they can be said to have a quality that supersedes their personhood (by personhood, we shall understand that to mean the physical body which is Darwinian in nature). Individuals, of which there are many, who take on and off the virtues as though they were clothes are skewing more towards the category of unconscious hylics/NPCs because they are following the purely Darwinian programming of the body. There is not higher spark of consciousness (the Divine Spark or spirit) to compel them towards greater ideals than competition, hedonism, reproduction, materialism and other Darwinian, animalistic concepts: this makes such individuals feel "flat" for lack of a better word. For more on that distinction between flat and non-flat people, refer back to the picture in the opening post of this thread.In regards to the overall topic, pic-related is rather interesting. I don't endorse it wholesale because it takes different angles from my more Gnostic approach, but I like how it makes the viewer think about different types of people.
>>83477669NTA but are you vegan ? Contributing to extreme suffering due to the hedonistic desire to consume corpse flesh doesnt seem very high virtueIm not a vegan either but I do think about how pathetic it makes me to consume products of so much pain for my pleasure
>>83477685>NTA but are you vegan ?I am not a vegan but I have seriously considered becoming one. It's tough for me because I don't have a lot of copes in life and I can't afford more weight that could push me over the metaphorical edge or break the camel's back, so to speak. I do understand the problem with consuming animal matter and the evil associated with factory farms though. I also don't know how well I could reasonably take care of my health if I had to cut out animal products.>Contributing to extreme suffering due to the hedonistic desire to consume corpse flesh doesnt seem very high virtue>hedonistic desireNot entirely the angle I consume food with, but I agree. Unfortunately, the Demiurge designed this world to reflect the one above. Our spiritual energy (loosh) gets eaten while we eat the animals down here. We are the Demiurge to the animals, assuming one could say they are conscious which I doubt, but that doesn't make the pain they display (even if they aren't conscious and only sentient) hit any less brutally if you've ever seen videos of these animals suffering.The food chain truly goes beyond this realm.>I do think about how pathetic it makes me to consume products of so much pain for my pleasureI agree wholeheartedly. I wish I could take off this flesh which needs to eat, shit and pee, but it is not so easy to make the final hurdle. The evil creator could have made us like plants but he did not.
>>83477726you have very interesting views, would you be up to discuss on discord?
>>83477356This is a really stupid idea when it comes to women. Looking into eyes of woman is a lot worse than most things you can come up with
>>83477356Okay but have you considered the advantages of an NPC sex doll you can never really hurt no matter how you treat her?
>>83478078i dont have discord anon, but if i did, i am a reclusive person. sorry. this is the board of robots
>>83478081what's wrong with eye contact in an intimate context?>>83478112sex dolls only appease carnality
>>83478078>hello mkultra candidate, would you like to speak in private so that I could better profile you?
First remove the plank from your own eye and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
