It's very obvious that in this life reincarnation with the fluctuation of the quantum daybreak waves and the parallel convergence of soul conjecturing that we have entered a precipitant conflux wherein you all should give me fifty bucks each. This is because of probabilistic wave collapse, and also my bank account is the reincarnation of a Hedonistic Queen who is doing hydraulic jump factors so it is ideal for the collective health of the universe to deliver a synergistic conclusion to formulate resolution of the issue, which, again, is the lack of giving me fifty bucks each. Namaste my fellow JO energy collectors, namaste.

Pontificating rear end posted:I used moderative language like "probably" and "I think" to reduce the likelihood of receiving largely inane replies to specific wordage, but here we are. The reason I invoked the trigger-word "quantum" is because people are familiar with the so-called 'quantum waveform collapse' so I figured it would make it more relatable, and it has indeed, such that you've attached the wrong implications. This is a lot of words to say "I never took a science class but sure like the fancy words" lol

It's always kind of telling this sort of magic thought logic is pretty much always Christian-centric, with a splash of vague "orientalism" to make it seem more palatable. Either that or the Hindus are right and we just keep ignoring all the times kids say "I was a bug!"

Yeah, I actually do enjoy meditation as a grounding, processing and relaxation exercise, but pretending it delivers the answers of the universe is no more wishful thinking than obliging yourself every Sunday to kneel will allow you to channel a version of the Abrahamic God.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone address the whole issue of "we all have souls from past lives" but also there's significantly more people on this planet than originally. So like, did we have a stockpile of souls and like, some got picked first and they've just been in circulation and the rest were printed later? Or do some people just not get souls? Or everyone gets new souls, hot off the press, but these three year olds get used hand-me-downs? Or were souls an invention like halfway through humanity's existence? I need an answer that is consistent both internally and externally and everyone agrees on.

redshirt posted:Quantum mechanics is anything but deterministic. I've seen the sentiment popping up randomly a lot lately that people have decided that everything is predetermined and point to the fact that we can "calculate the reactions of everything at a quantum level" to predict everything and therefore everything will play out a certain way. Funnily enough, that is kind of exactly *not* how quantum mechanics work. It's very much "ah but we can do a math so we can just do a lot of math" to try and, idunno, cancel out how chaotic everything is. Quantum predeterminism does seem a very techbro faith.

Ever notice no one is ever the reincarnation of like just the worst people? Like no one is ever "oh yeah I'm a serial sex pest who died during auto erotic asphyxiation in my gooning cave while kicking puppies". Those are bad souls, so they don't get reincarnated is the cop out answer is guess, which is both lame *and* dumb as an answer.

No one does or is reincarnated, we move on to the next dimension where we're all butts. If you don't agree it's probably because you're just prefer a nihilistic oversimplification, versus a thing I can't proof. The onus of proof is on the people who doubt me. Sure, you have evidence that nothing happens after you die by citing all the people that died and then nothing happened, but what evidence do you have to disprove my butt-person theory? None, that's right. Making butt-people really a valid logical option. Checkmate, atheists.

You know the wild thing is someone choosing to believe in heaven, or an afterlife, or reincarnation is really quite milquetoast and inoffensive. It only gets weird and a lil culty when people insist that they've figured it out and everyone else is dumb/naive/ignorant/a malcontent/etc. "Everything is vague and unknowable except the things I personally believe" is a brave and courageous statement and people are heroes for saying it ngl

Pontificating rear end posted:I'm totally over this thread, but ultimately my biggest point would be the universe is 13.7 years old, to our best knowledge, and you will live less than 100 years of it. Most of this time is spent by stars exploding, like snuffed flames, and the higher elements they create spread out, only to enstar before exploding again, release even higher elements to create the building blocks of life. If you completely cease to exist when you die you would be dead right now. Woah, I didn't realise your biggest point was no point at all lmfao "We can't just die, the universe is really old" is a bold stance like, "I can't be broke, my employer has been in business for 100 years!" But you're right, it's everyone else that is trying to feel special lmao

Some interpretations of reincarnation also attribute wealth to whether you're a good person or not. Born into money? You were amazing last life. Born into poverty? Probably a piece of poo poo. This is a very normal and sensible thing of course, and not at all designed with ulterior motives.
