>look at a wiki page for anybody with spiritual abilities
>uh uh they cheated or something!

The more I come to understand the principles of logic and reason in defining reality, the more I understand that they are not effective tools for the task, and the reality in question actively evades definition.

>>42350917
I come here for the alien and UFO shit, but unfortunately even those threads are filled to the brim with religious schizos talking about demons and Christ.

I don't understand why you can't be a materialist who respects logic and the scientific method while also believing in advanced, highly intelligent extraterrestrial life.

jesus christ gross, give a warning next time before you say something so disgusting

>>42350991
Superstition and backwardness keep you a slave to your own worst instincts. Embrace reason. The greatest peaks of human civilization (the Renaissance, for instance) were achieved by people who valued and respected logic and man's ability to ascertain the truth of reality.

>>42350917
Nothing but delusions on this board.

There are no supernatural forces, souls, magick, spirits, life after death, tulpas, undead beings or giant conspiracies hiding things we cannot imagine right under the surface of what we can see. Reality is cold and driven purely by power, intelligence, determination and manipulation. There is no hidden meaning, no destiny, no reason to live. Reality is both a giant playground for us to explore and progress in, but also an arena for us to fight in for our false ideologies. If you fail at life, you will never find anything to hold on to. No aliens, no haunted houses, no spirits, no demons to fight. You're only fighting with your own delusions, and desperately trying not to hit the absolute bottom. Now try to prove me wrong, if there really is anyone still treating this paranormal shit seriously.

All of that civilization culminated in making technology for troons to exist so what good was it?

Is this the soulless kike demoralization thread?

>>42351031
>(the Renaissance, for instance) were achieved by people who valued and respected logic and man's ability to ascertain the truth of reality.
Yeah but they also believed in God

>>42350917
absence of evidence is not evidence of absence

99% of known human existence under structured large-scale societies had a heavy emphasis on religion or spirituality. That should speak for itself.

>>42350917
Because it’s fun

>>42351084
>humans living in a city means their woowoo is real
I'm not sure that logically follows

>>42351252
You think you're an evolved monkey, shut up retard.

>>42351031
>The Renaissance, for instance
You mean the rise of faggotmasons and the beginning of turning the world into the gay niggerhell it is today? Are you posting from Eglin afb? Your posting style is uncanny and sticks out as someone that definitely does not use this place at all.

>Your posting style is uncanny and sticks out as someone that definitely does not use this place at all.
I've been posting on 4chan for 15 years. I just want to talk about fucking UFOs without some schizophrenic Christcuck trying to tell me that I need to repent to ward off the demons.

Science is about discovering God and much of history and science has been manipulated by the Freemasons

>>42350917
Have you considered that reality and logic are nothing in comparison to human desire to feel special and unique?

>>42350950

>it’s the test that was wrong….
You are dumber than the frog OP.

>>42350917
Oh? Do you have Tiktok installed?
Granted many are fakes. But there's lots of high definition paranormal videos.
Suppose you're a Skinwalker telling us there's no Skinwalkers?

>>42351054
Could just be a brown frogposter, it takes less than a minute to research and understand NDE visions from those with disabilities such as blindness to realize everything spiritual is real and science is almost entirely fake. Look what science brought us, pictures of flies on the "mars rover", underwater nasa greenscreens, fake landings, vaccines which culled millions. Science is fake rick and morty cartoons in and out, only pathetic failures believe in it.

>>42350917

why would we
you're building your own castle
have fun with it, while it lasts

>>42350917
There are multiple different threads on this board about magic usage and zero confirmed cases of magic being used. Really makes you think.

>>42350964
>materialist who respects logic
lol. ironically some of these people understand much better than you why you can't. this is the board with both the dumbest people and the smartest people on 4chan

>>42350917
>How can people genuinely believe in anything spiritual?
We didn't take the covid jab and boosters.
Ever had sleep paralysis? ever done heroic doses of psychedelics? there's so much more to this universe than meets the eye, we only physically see a small glimpse
