Everything appears to be mundane material, and there is simply not compelling evidence to the contrary. From what I understand, the universe is set to Big Bang, then Big Crunch via gravity, endlessly on repeat in novel ways in new metauniversal locations for eternity. How I believe this relates to us and provides a path forward, is the thought of where our consciousness comes from. It's just a bunch of cells self-relating to create this feeling of selfness and locality. But THIS particular sense of self can be spawned once out of endless universal looping, could it not be spawned again? Absolutely. I believe this to be the sensible version of the babble about Buddhist reincarnation, or archon soul harvesting or whatever. We likely just keep coming back. Each universal iteration is unlikely to recreate us, but eternity is long and we can wait, asleep, between rounds.Does it play out the exact same way every time? Maybe it must in order to produce the "same" consciousness as before. Or maybe subatomic probabilities subtly change the outcomes each time, in fact that's more probable that those tiny differences among your repeated lifespan add up every time. At least that's my working theory. (1/2)
(2/2)So if you loop into novel lifetimes as yourself endlessly, could there be an end result? The only outcomes available are repeated deaths or some safe state such as immortality. I believe now that at some point there will be a future universe in which we have been blessed, somehow, with a benevolent and omnipotent god. Infinity breeds such an idea. However we have not yet reached that universe. Thus the problem of suffering and any textual contradictions in major religion is solved. God/the All-Father/the source/whatever your name for it does not exist yet, but definitively will, and thus always has, and has used its power to project messaging backward to us and even create the universal spawning system in the first place. Thus it is extremely important to live well by its terms as a human being of virtue in order to live our best lives and give appreciation etc etc. Although your choices are not necessarily maintained between loops, continually choosing to be the right kind of person ensures being saved in the "final" universe.Basically what I think could happen is we live a quadrillion more lives out as ourselves, and then at some point wake up or get armageddon'd into a paradise watched over by God. Does every culture have similar stories of the All-Father because of a fear of death, or it's evolutionarily adaptive to enforce social norms, or cultural transmission from a common ancestor? Or do we share a common instinct that something similar to what I've posited, is true?
