Big " yet you participate in society." energy with this

We need a new video platform to come up as a competitor for youtube, because right now youtube has a monopoly on video content. There was once a site called vid.me which was awesome, unfortunately the creator didn’t have enough funds to fund it long term. If I knew anything about how to host a website, I would but I don’t know shit about it.

I never liked him for something really petty. Years ago when I actually used to watch masterchef, some contestant did a dessert that was chocolate and ginger and Gregg said that was an unusual combination despite not being unusual at all and is a common flavour in stores. Maybe that was my spidey sense tingling about him.

3 more decades is too long of a wait. I hate these targets that are like “In decades we will reach the target we should have reached a decade ago.”

This might just be my local area, but there are many teens that are doing a car wash business for money. They advertise on social media, car comes round to their house, person pays teens money. They’re going pretty well as based on comments they have many repeat customers.

So I would have already loved my mom in another life? seems fine by me. It wouldn’t mess with my emotions or duties at all. I don’t think it would slow us down at all but it would actually speed our progress up. People would be much more understanding to each other knowing what they’ve been through and it would create a much stronger community of people. I honestly think people remembering all previous lives would make life so much better.

I actually think life would be much better this way. I think people would be much more empathetic to people’s struggles knowing how it felt in a previous life. And if space is infinite there could be infinite civilizations for people to reincarnate on and every civilization would be different so imagine people comparing what civs they’ve been in. “Oh you were on lyza, I’ve been wanting to go there.” It would just be fun to experience these things.

But if enough people remeber lives like that, the whole of torture will stop because of knowing previous lives.

But in the 80s you might get reincarnated into a family that teaches you how to read while having the memories of the life you can’t leading you to be more empahetic.

This point doesnt really make sense when you consider that there are TV channels that don’t have ads like any of the BBC channels, PBS and even Disney Channel. They are channels that only promote their own other shows but for the most part don’t have ads in between the shows.

Hollywood has been propandada since it was created. It was literally invented so they could influence other countries and they’ve been doing that since the 80’s through merchandise. It’s not art for art’s sake. Hollywood has always been commercials for merchandise.

One good shit compared to ten different types of diarrhoea

You can probably find local business that sell whatever you need and if not just ask for recommendations on best websites to buy that thing here, at least that’s what I do.

Horror can be done on a low budget which in turn makes the genre extremely profitable so movie studios just see “People want more horror” rather than making different movies on a low budget.

Being hold accountable actions I never took is the concept of karma. This life I have now is the result of all my previous karma in the buddhist view of it. But how do I know I deserve this life? What did I do to earn it? I didn’t do anything, I just happened to be born in this life. It doesn’t feel fair to not know why we’re in these lives to begin with.

Your analogy seems great to me. I would know why I’m in that specific life and I would know how long I have here. Each life would feel like making progress and making progress would show I’m truly sorry for being a serial murderer in a past life. That should be how reincarnation works, everyone knows who they were in a past life and if it’s lesson oriented how many lives they have to live. If someone knows they have 300 lifetimes then they would know all the details of what they did in the 300 lifetimes. Plus if god is truly omnipotent, then he can create things he himself hasn’t even seen still making things novel while rembering past lifetimes.

Sure, lessons can’t be presented in the same way. I agree with you on that. But different lessons while rembering the previous lessons would make life much more meaningful in my view.

It’s like watching movies. Movies are not presented all the same way because that would be boring but having memories of all the movies you’ve seen makes you appreciate film even more, especially if it’s a great one. A comedy movie has a different experience than a thriller movie but remembering the movies you’ve seen can make you appreciate the films even more. But now imagine watching rotating between superbad and taken and you don’t even remember you’ve already watched them. That’s what not remembering the lessons feels like to me.

I will always try and respect people’s viewpoints even if I don’t agree with them myself. You’re also doing a good job at that, so well done.

That verse you quoted doesn’t say god is a god of order. It says god is a god of peace. If he truly was a god of peace, then he would stop wars. Let’s say you’re walking on the street and see a mugging happening, the person getting mugged is not screaming for help or anything but you stop them anyway. They didn’t ask to be helped, but it kept them safe anyway. You would have violated their free will, but kept them safe and peaceful. A god of peace would violate people’s free will if it meant keeping them safe.

You make a great point about how we’re not allowed to remember lessons. Wouldn’t the world be more peaceful if everyone knew what lessons they had already learnt? Like say in one life someone insults someone with a disablity, the next life they’re a person with the same disability and they remember the insults they said so they know how shitty they made that person feel? And in turn, would make them do the right thing more often, not because of personal gain but because it’s the right thing to do. Without the memories, people could revert straight back to throwing insults. It’s like putting a kindergartener in college math because “Well you’ve been here before so you must remember.” but the kindergartener can’t even do his times tables. How are we supposed to learn when we don’t even know what lessons we’ve already learnt? When you’re at school, you remember the previous lessons you’ve learnt and even have knowledge of them so why isn’t it the same in a spiritual school?
