Logic is a point of view, it varies from person to person, therefore your logic, isn't the same as mine.
I'm here to share, not to argue or to attempt to be refuted. I know I'm right already.
IMO, we are never right, we can only be close to the right answer, or know were near it, and even if we were right, we couldn't know it in this life time, so it wouldn't matter.
There are no eternal individual souls because eternity is an immeasurable amount of time and space and there is only space for one eternity. There is one eternal soul that we all share and that we are all a part of, in other words there is one eternal existence that we are all a part of. I hope they'll understand this some day, it's super important.
Agreed, IMO, we are all a matter of experience, the experience of individuality, an all knowing being could comprehend and experience everything, except individuality, could comprehend it, but not experience it, this IMO, is what the universe was, one concsious being, and was created by a conscious action, of splitting itself into all it's forms, I am one of those forms, aswell as a rock, a molecule, a plant or planet or star.
There's no "eternal souls" plural, there could be "eternal soul mates", as in their colliding and uniting comes about as a result of eternal interaction and their personalities just click... if you wanted to label it that, but they are mates of the soul, the one eternal soul that we all share (also known as: one eternal existence), they are not 2 individual souls that are mates; they are 2 creatures sharing one eternal soul, just as we all do.
Although I agree, that essentially we are all one, but IMO, individuality is the key. When we die, we will reincarnate again, as whatever we choose, what ever we haven't already experienced, we will experience, from our eternal point of view, each and everyone/thing will go through this, becoming everything that could possibly be and adding that experience to there overall experience, thus altering their perception of the 'universe', as a whole, aswell as in part.
But the current religious concept of the word soul is really a misnomer, especially since souls are said to be "eternal" and some religions believe that they "reincarnate". But truly when we die we are dead eternally. Sadly for some, but the truth nonetheless, our lives are finite and our deaths are eternal. We are merely an assimilation of energy in material form, we are simply action and reaction, result and cause, sempiternal interaction, the happening. No thought, no choice, no freedom.
I don't agree with being dead eternally to be honest, I'm not going to say your wrong, as I don't know if I'm right, so have no gauge to compare, something people tend to forget. For me, it makes no sense, you suggest we get our measley 80 years ish (if your lucky) out of the rest of eternity? for what? everything in nature is based on harmony, balance, this offers no balance, that I can see.
What we consider thought is only the awareness of our perception and the perceiving of our awareness, is only the interaction of our anatomical biological bodies with the environment around us and it with us. To contemplate is nothing more than energy attempting to evolve towards efficiency through the logical and moral constructs of the universe. This logic can be corrupt and imperfect (not 100% efficient) if the specie or individual creature has yet to remember its eternal knowledge.
Again, morality and logic are human concepts, to describe a way to act or behave. Would you go out and kill someone if you weren't told not to? I would like to think that I wouldn't, although, I can't say for certain, since I was raised with a moral base. Logic is the same, it's a human concept, alot of people find Ocham's razor to be logical, and to me, it is totally idiotic, is my logic flawed or theirs? IMO, neither, we both have different perceptions of the world we live in, therefore, logically, we would have different logic to explain our world and our actions and beliefs within it.
Good thread
Star and flag.
