Believing the universe might be a demonic simulation is controversial but not irrational per se

Wouldn´t be more compassionate from our part to call him “flawed god” instead of demon? After all the troubles of creating the universe…

Fair point, but in my “unusual” model the universe is only a simulation created in order to entrap the divine spark brought by a divine observer, sent from the pleroma.

So, if the design is evil by itself… Doesn´t it mean that we are accomplices by nature?

It’s full-on whackdoodle. You need to get back on your meds.

We are co-creators (although we are in fact only one person) but mostly we are victims.

26

To the extent that I know, there is no victim without a perpetrator.
And the only perpetrators I can think of are other human beeings.
Even more, there should be a dichotomy between victim/perpetrator in different people, unless we are playing hide and seek like the hindus claim to be.
Bare in mind that you are humanizing the demon.

Our humanity is a myth, albeit a useful one.

i had a delusion we came from the animal kingdom

29

You no longer believe we are animals?

30

we share some triats with animals but over all no

It might not be healthy, but I can’t stop my inquiries, not now.

I wonder what your thoughts are on pragmalinguistics, and philosophy of language in general…

dam that is pretty deep man to think that the universe is all about demons and the rest. I’d say the universe is more bigger than that and you’ll see what I’m saying when you consider the other factors of religion, and not only that but life as well.

Not something I’ve followed closely enough.

35

Language should be one of the key arguments vs. solipsism…

Free will smells funny aswell in your “unusual” model…

36

The truth be said my so-called solipsism is more akin to occasionalism, but my alternative self does believe there is only one person in the universe, therefore not human -the idea of single human being is monstruous.

I questioned the universe and our existence when unmedicated. I was trying to put life in sentences and equations that I thought were logic. Others thought I am crazy but didn’t tell me. Until I bursted after a year and a half, my emotions exploded and I was crying, hospitalized by 4 cops.

In my case is just an ordinary existential crisis.
