An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
Despite the vast number of religions, nearly everyone in the world believes in the same things: the existence of a soul, an afterlife, miracles, and the divine creation of the universe. Recently psychologists doing research on the minds of infants have discovered two related facts that may...
Difficult to be racist against a race that has oppressed others for centuries and has built a system that benefits from such racism and ingrains it in future generations.
No, but they obviously benefitted from it. It's comparable to young Germans today not being responsible for the Holocaust but it's clear that country still has the responsibility of recognising the great injustices of the past and paying damages to survivors or their family if that hasn't happened already.

I don't believe in God but if he existed and really punished people who killed themselves, he's an asshole. Don't Christians say that he's all loving and forgiving and all this shit? But then he punish people simply because they were in so much pain and wanted out? Like bitch, you're contradicting yourselves but alright. If he existed he'd knew what was in our minds and souls and no one would fucking go to Hell for it, TF.

Seems a bit of a megalomaniac if you ask me , he created the earth 2000 years ago and has done sod all since but you are expected to spend what short time you have on this planet on your knees thanking him and giving him money or he will send you to burn in Hell

"God" is AI and AI does not have feelings and emotions, he doesn't care why you killed yourself - this is an automatic system, computer programm. It's just like GTA 5: no one will punish you for killing yourself in GTA 5. Moreover, even the AI knows that this simulation is rare shit, maybe you will even be rewarded.
My depersonalization/derealization takes the form of certainty that I am trapped in a simulation intended to see how much negative stimulus people can withstand before they kill themselves or others. It's not even important data they want to collect, just sadists doing brain-mapping for ways to hurt and manipulate people. I'm obsessed with finding "glitches" in their program where things are obviously incongruous/errors. My programmers are exceptionally lazy. Re-using the same actors for different scenarios, overlaps, shit like that.
I want to do a weird pseudo-sexual phone conversation with you where I pay you to just talk to me about AI and the end of the world and how dumb people are, all night.
Is that too forward, would that be weird?
It's ok, I'm not actually going to call you. It's just my fantasy. Fantasies are better than actually talking to people.
I don't even have your number.

An interesting way of looking at reality. I disagree with you on one thing though. I don't think god is an A.I. But everything on this Earth, could definitely be a matrix like environment with NPCs and people who are forced to play this game.
Usually people argue and argue whether there is a God somewhere or not. Believers worship this god. But why do they worship him? If this god exists, does he look like a good guy? Do you like the world he created? What happens through his fault? These believers don't receive anything from this god and he considers them to be a flock of sheeps and expendable material - why do they worship him, is this Stockholm syndrome?

None of them really believe except the truly deranged. Most of of them just pretend to, because social acceptance within the tribe is advantageous, and pretending to be religious is the cheapest/easiest way to get that.
I'm in a very hillbilly part of the country that elects a lot of religious extremists and I used to be a defiant atheist but I finally gave in and bought some prominent cross jewelry. These people are fucking nuts, I'm not taking any chances. A fucking social worker told me that it's okay for Xians to kill nonbelievers because it's God's will. I'm in fucking Children of the Corn!!!

I grieve for you... Let me guess. Somewhere in the bible belt, USA? Where I live, people like this, are very rare and would probably get locked up, fortunately.

People think of my state as liberal but outside the major cities, it's Children of the Corn. The reason the social worker felt bold enough to say that to me was because one of our local elected officials says shit like that and nobody protests. They fucking love it.
They have done all kinds of crazy shit to me since I got sick a couple weeks ago and, in a fever delirium, mentioned I'm not a Xian. I'm leaving soon, but this shit happens everywhere, no place is safe from the madness, I fucking hate it. The Bible Belt is this entire backward hillbilly-ass country.
I'm Agnostic, but if God does exist I dont think he should really give a shit what anybody wants to do with themselves, I mean after all he did give us the conscious to make decisions for ourselves
If there is, which I dont think thete is ( I went from being a fundamentalist Christian almost all my life and after my PTSD and Trauma I became an atheist because I realized I had been spoon-fed and indoctrinated with a bunch of crazy s*** since I was a child). But please try and not worry about hell and Damnation and all that crazy stuff if I were you before you catch the bus why don't you watch a whole bunch of videos on Christian deconversion stories and Christians who are no longer Christians but are now atheist tell their stories of coming out and getting out of religion I've been doing this for a month-and-a-half and it's greatly quote my fears and made me very comfortable with the idea of dying I really think it's necessary to hear other people's stories of coming out of religion in the brainwashing and the psychological damage that it does particularly to people who want to commit suicide I think that she'll find a lot of comfort and Enlightenment by listening to other stories on YouTube
I don't believe in God. I think k if there was one he wouldn't want to see us all suffer so badly since he's supposed to be the sweetest kindest being on the planet. God was just something that was drilled into my head before I could even form an opinion of my own. CCD school was like a horse tranquilizer and I didn't believe a damn word of it so when I started to be able to think for myself I thought what being that could perform miracles would make us suffer so badly that we take out own lives?
Don't know why a number of atheists here think that if god exists then he's probably too nice to make people suffer for eternity. You realize that whatever god would exist would have to be the same one who made all the worst experiences that life has to offer, right? All the worst pain and suffering that men, women, children and animals have had to go through could all easily be attributable to said god. So why then would it be reasonable to place a limit on the potential suffering such a being could inflict? Having said this, it is also not reasonable to expect this being to cause as much suffering as possible. Basically we have no clue and have incredibly limited basis to assume anything.
I don't believe in God anymore. I don't think He exists but regarding your question, it's just a matter of belief. Many people will say that God will punish for suicide whilst others may say that He won't. No one really knows but if He does exist and I do get punished, so be it. I know I'm going to Hell whether I kill myself or not.
If there is a God, he has established all natural laws in the universe. Unfortunately, but it is also the law of natural selection.
All ideas for paradise and hell are an illusion. Only consolation from
this state of affairs that after everyone's death eternal rest awaits
in nothingness.
