My girlfriend is a muslim
A long time ago a was muslim too but after a while i came into a conclusion that this religion is no where near the truth, so became an atheist, i wanted to tell my muslim gf that iam an atheist and she gotta accept me as iam but iam afraid that she'll leave me and honestly, she treat me right and iam afraid that I'll never be able to experience that again, its heavy to hide this side of me but its even heavier thinking that she will leave me whenever i tell her that, i know its the right thing to tell her but i just can't, i don't know why Its just a cycle of endless pain

@Julian K Hey man sorry I took so long bro there was alot on my plate ykwis but yeah First, “The greek writings is not the original sayings of Jesus because he spoke Aramaic” I forgot to put in my last statement that while it's true Jesus spoke Aramaic, historians know that first-century Israel was actually trilingual (Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek). But now i said it you know now. But Imma put it in this way.. if a Filipino speaker gives an important speech in Tagalog, and a bilingual eyewitness writes it down directly in English so the whole world can understand it, the meaning doesn't get lost. The Apostles didn't play a 200-year game of telephone. They were bilingual eyewitnesses who lived with Jesus. Writing directly in Greek wasn't a "mistake".. it was a deliberate choice so that the entire Roman Empire could read Jesus' words immediately without losing His true meaning. Plus the dead sea scrolls or idk, but there is just some really old writing about the bible idk if its was the dead sea scrolls but its a chapter of the bible that was discovered and it actually had no mistranslations idk look it up but Imma set that aside. Second point “God is love and energy, so trying to be like Him isn't a sin.” Wanting to be like God in terms of love and goodness is a good thing. But that’s not what Adam and Eve did. Their sin wasn't trying to copy God’s character; it was trying to take God’s authority. The serpent tempted them by saying they would "be like gods, knowing good and evil" (Genesis 3:5). They wanted to decide right and wrong for themselves without trusting their Creator. It’s the difference between a child wanting to grow up to be wise like their dad, versus a child trying to kick their dad out of the house to take over his rules. Understand it now? Plus I wanna add Authoritarian describes a person, system, or government that demands strict, unquestioning obedience to authority while suppressing individual freedom of thought and action so when you say “I don't see God as this authoritarian father” because he isnt.. because he gave us free will. Ik this convo will probably go on a spiral of philosophical thingalings and debates on free will and is free will really real and allat yada yada yk but imma set that aside.

@Julian K Ok. Since I used the haven app and deepseek for the last statement.. I’ll return to the normal thing and wont give you an explanation on why I ai’d it yk. First, you still BELIEVE that the bible is corrupted. Well first, I can tell you why people may BELIEVE that, 1. The original New Testament manuscripts “no longer exists” 2. Our earlier copies were made years or maybe even generations after the Original things were written 3. The 400 thousand text differences across EXISTING manuscripts. May I remind you that thats most often the critics point to when talking about but the bibles credibility but Imma set that aside. First off.. the Holy Catholic Church didn’t discover an anonymous list of some sort, and about the weeding out forged copies, just no.. in fact I think thats one of the reasons why protestanism was created idk I forgot. “The New Testament was anonymously written” mind you that the Church Fathers CONSISTENTLY attributed the Gospels to their traditional autors very early on, like Papias, which is a DIRECT heares of John the Apostle, HE specifically wrote that Mark was the “interpreter of Peter” and Matthew recorded the oracles of Jesus. And besides Papias here comes St. Irenaeus, who he was a student of Polycarp, who was a disciple of John. And St. Iranaeus explicitly names Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John as the AUTHORS, linking Mark to Peter and Luke to Paul. I also wanna add the the forgery part is pretty illogical because like it would be too early yk like if the Church in like 200 AD had “forged” a gospel, it would be IMPOSSIBLE to convince communities that had original handwritten copies from the Apostles themselves that dates back to the first century, plus i would be too widespread if you know what Im saying, Like you have to get so coordinated accross the mediterranean. How would they do that. Plus Revelation 22:18-19 read it. I also want to add that the Church also defines “apostolic origin” o include works approve by an Apostle, meaning that they are no forgeries even if the scribe wasn’t The Twelve. Like Mark and Luke. Plus John, Peter and Paul were still alive when the Church was founded if your asking.

observing reality from the ground up and retardmaxxing
If an immovable object met an unstoppable force nothing would happen. As in, The universe would disappear and never have existed in the first place. If the property of immovability and unstopability are strapped to the very foundation of reality then reality would cease to exist when collided. If one triumphant over the other that would only prove that the triumphed ones law was more fundamental. A law is not something that has to be explained, it simply is. Anything observed can be a law. When I let go of a ball there is a law that states that it will be move to the direction of the ground. I don't need to understand Newtonian physics for that law to be true. Even if something only happens one time it can still be considered a law. If someone bumps into me while walking to the subway for example, "when walking in the subway someone will bump into me" now if I return to the subway and someone does not bump into me a "contradiction" is revealed. Contradictions are proof that there lay a more fundamental law which allows my higher assumed law to be contradicted. No law any human has created has reached the most fundamental level. Meaning, any law can be contradicted. "Truth" is unreachable by a conceptual machine. Newtonian physics seemed to lay at the very foundation of reality. Until a contradiction was found in the right circumstances. That of massive objects in interstellar space. This is no different than the law of "when walking in the subway someone will bump into me" being contradicted by the right circumstance. In The practice of observing reality the most fundamental action is the creation of laws. In order to keep observing reality one must find the right circumstances to contradict that law. When the contradiction is revealed the next step is to observe the difference in "property" between the circumstances. This is the scientific method explained from the ground up. Instead of applying the scientific method to our own understanding of reality, it is used as a tool to make blind statements based on other people's assumptions. Culturally, we have lost the ability to observe reality. That privilege is left only to the academic elite.

why self improve
What are we trying to improve for? Is it for getting money or being more diciplined? Why do you want dicipline? Do you want things to control you, or do you wanna shape your self? Shaping your self is bullshit. You dont need to shape yourself because if you came here by not thinking too hard or follwing others, you belon here. So stop saying I want to self improve. What are you trying to actually improve? Is it your heath? I dont know, but this is a philsophy school so its probaly mindset. So are you trying to change your mindset to rambohs or yours? Do you even need to change anything? If you dont like where you are now then you must have done something too hard. Thats why most gooners wanna goon. Most men wanna goon. The men that dont goon still wanna goon, but they dont do it for this and that. I say lets stop trying to improve and try to live indivudally.

Why MINORS Has The Most Potential
Imma be honest minors and losers has the most potential out of any category of human, but I don’t mean potential in looks but potential in intelligence. I’ve heard in a ramboh video that philosophers were rich and had time so they had time to think yk, and at first that got me thinking.. Minors has the most potential in terms of being more intelligent than others. But why do I think minors and losers has the potential? Because they have time, honestly what do losers do? sit on the couch watch on a tv or device 24/7, eat, dont go outside, and thats pretty much everything. And what do most young people do.. well they do chores, some try to make money(which is a good thing), they are guaranteed to be on their phones at-least 4 hours probably doing useless things, and school and homework. Imma be honest, school is easy bro, probably not in college but any below college level is pretty easy man and that may be because I live in a third world country but school is easy. Imma still be honest and say that I use AI for homework, but I dont let Artificial Intelligence replace my OWN intelligence like SOME people, they just mindlessly copy and paste what the AI says and boom, they will no longer care what the teacher will say in class because they got AI. “Imma ask ChatGPT” bro.. the amount of times I’ve heard this is getting to a point, maybe its just me but I REALLY miss google, like google without the AI overview or something Idk but like what happened to actually trynna gain knowledge man and not just some type of slop pasted on a thing and we reading it yk, we reading it for mostly at face value and not caring enough to actually try and understand the whole thing or whatever yk. Like AI was supposed to be something helpful and not dangerous yk. We humans might go on and be like the ones in Wall-e bro but now imma set that aside. You have time spend it wisely. Again for the millionth time, Imma be honest still.. I want this message to be kinda motivational yk but this probably not it because Imma be real man we’re gonna die someday god forbid tomorrow there will be a truck that will slam me across the street yk. We have a short amount of time in this earth, in this realm yk, so why not try to be what God planned us to be ykwis. God said “I knew you before you were woven in the womb” but God also said “away from me, for I never knew you”. We have free will, either we use it for negatives or we use it for God. What we are is God’s gift to us, and what we make of our life is our gift back to God. So why not just give your 50, 60, 70 years to God yk, like be fr eternal life without any negativity is pretty fire if you ask me man.
