So how does everyone else on here feel about our species?

Personally I hold this weird, deep affection for mankind. I just genuinely like people automatically. I can’t really explain it I guess. It’s like I see everyone as something that has the potential to be really beautiful and I just want to help everyone get there and keep everyone from pushing themselves in the wrong direction. But I don’t really have any control over that…

What do you guys think? I’m feeling oddly wistful tonight hehe. Guess it was because I got so much kindness today from all over. I wouldn’t be where I am now without other people…(love keeps me alive) like sure sometimes people have been mean but nothing I couldn’t understand…

But I’m a sap :grin:

It depends on how much bs I can put up with that day.

I am very different from everyone. They expect people to be normal. When I don’t conform to this it makes me stand out. It’s very difficult to conform though.

I do get respect from the people I hang out with now.

I would like our species to survive, I wish no one harm, but I always feel uncomfortable around others.

Growing up I always foresaw this infinite timeline in humanities future. Space. Interstellar or even intergalactic civilization.

I’ve learned a lot though and it’s kind of made me realize that’s not possible or practical.

We might be on a collision course.

When I lost sight of this future timeline it also made me wonder if I even care what happens.

Any case I’m just one odd ball. The species will last as long as it can.

We’ll be here until we don’t need to be anymore. I’ve never really stressed over it.

Humanity deserves itself at this point. Whatever that means.

I think people are doing the best they can given the circumstance…we’re all just animals…I’m sort of in awe any of this exists at all.

Humans have done a lot to strive past their nature and I respect that I guess.

I think there are a few who are doing what’s right

Many many more who are just doing what works

Then a few more who are shitting in the cake.

Yeah. Not everyone’s gonna be able to rise above and beyond, it’s a given. But talking about all that is when my delusion thinking comes in so I should probably stay away from that hehe.

I still can’t really wrap my head around evil yet. Every time I come close to seeing I feel sick, so I don’t know if I’ll ever understand or if I even want to.

It’s one thing to rationalize it for the sake of understanding.

It’s another thing to know that if you just try and be good you don’t have to do that.

When you do picture it and realize the stupidity of it you’ll want nothing more than for all that ■■■■ to stop.

Then you realize it probably never will.

Then it’s back to just trying to be righteous.

i like people in general,

its good to have a good friends circle, people you can trust

i never use to go out as much but now that i am and now that i havent got flat effect anymore i have started to socialize and enjoy peoples company, only certain people can put up with me though as i act a bit silly sometimes but thats ok.

No. For true evil there isn’t really any rational explanation. That’s why I can’t wrap my head around it.

And you know I’ve felt it before and seen it before and it horrifies me, and again I don’t think it’s something really comprehendable by us at this point in time.

Supernatural evil is very different from human evil.

I really only believe in the latter.

Human evil is essentially stupid.

14

This is all very confusing for me.

There’s human evil like for example a mother who abuses her children. They live in poverty. She keeps them around for welfare purposes. I’ve read the story too many times. That’s just plain stupidity I agree with you, based on lack of maturity, sensitivity, and a whole lotta other things.

I don’t like it, I hate it, but I understand it.

Then there’s other things. But that’s when things get intertwined with my experience and my issues so I’ll avoid that.

15

That other stuff isn’t real.

I know that’s not going to change your perspective.

16

That seems to have given me something to do though. Contemplating this greater evil that might be.

17

I’ve felt indescribable things before and experienced things most people haven’t. As I’m sure everyone here has with their own unique experiences. I don’t expect anyone else to understand where I’m coming from based on that.

Debating reality with someone else is pointless because everyone experiences an altered version of it to some extent. Attempting to negate another person’s reality which you have never experienced is impossible.

That’s what I’ve found anyways. Oh man, I can’t even think of how much time I wasted trying to argue beliefs with people on the Internet. Dumb dumb dumb. I don’t bother with that anymore that’s for sure hehe.

I’m glad you understand that the arguing is useless.

18

My mind gets sucked into thought traps on these things and God tells me not to worry about most of it but I do anyways because I’m a stubborn brat who can generally see reason but still chooses to ignore it most of the time.

I don’t really want you to get sucked into the same thought traps. Keep doing you.

19

Yeah I lost interest pretty quickly as I don’t believe in anything beyond the physical.

Haven’t even thought about it so long that I can’t even picture anything.

Maybe it’d be like the smog guy from fern gully. I don’t know though.
