"The wisdom of this world is foolishness..."

[@jazzyb819]

Was the interpretation of that scripture from a Jewish perspective?

[@jessicadavid6492]

@@jazzyb819 It is from the first letter to the Corinthians. It is a Christian quote, though I believe the interpretation is that people often get too much into intellectual thinking without seeking first God who is the creator of it. We have no ability to think without God existing. We can learn about logic and the world, but it's only in a creaturely way. It is not necessarily real knowledge, only what we learn about this existence we which have access to. But knowledge and wisdom comes from God, whether one accepts that or not. Following God and following the world are completely different things. True wisdom is from above. This world is definitely foolish in many ways. It just means follow God with your heart and not the ways of this world. I am not Jewish, so I don't know what they think. I don't think they accept apostolic letters, though, so I guess they would completely reject the quote entirely.

My entire point is to understand how others think and attempt to add their thought process to my own to improve my view on things.

Felt like chatting with an AI system.

[@dakotajones9709]

The Ego is an AI. It is constructed by one experiencing reality as it is when it is, separating the whole into parts and naming them, recording them in the mind, which it uses to cross reference and run "if this then this" algorithms, your action in the present is labeling that which is, going through memory which is the past, and then it dictates your action in the present. .It is static. Mechanical. And perpetual. And thought of future events will be based on the past. As all this occurs in the realm of thought. All thought is the past. The nature of thought is linear, where its past then present and then future creating the concept of time. In reality there is no past, there is no future, there is a ever changing now, which is not static, which is not the labels the mind ascribes to them, which are not separate parts interacting but all existing as a whole. Any thought of the past exists now, any thought of the future exists now, and any thought and mechanical behavior is born out of past recorded experiences, which we call memory, which we call knowledge. So it is the inverse, the mechanicalness is the Ego, where on is filled with strings of thought which is not reality, spinning many narratives, and becoming emotionally identified with these narratives, causing desire, conflict, passion, emotional up's and downs such as pain and pleasure, but it is a false pleasure, and there is no peace in it. The casting away and dissolution of these strings of thought we take to be reality, these mechanical processes we take to be our "Selfs", is Ego, which is dellusion, and is utterly mechanical, the absence of these things is not mechanical. One lives in the present, with no pre-conceptions of what should or shouldnt be, one is natural in the moment, experiencing life as it is. This is the antithesis of Mechanical or "AI" as you put it. .

If you are ok with going with the flow and just living life as it throws itself at you then thats fine too. Right and wrong are subjective and based on many different factors. A quick look at cultures across time will tell you that. I can understand why you would think right and wrong are objective but wouldnt that shatter even further than it already is, if an alien race showed up and started harvesting us because they are trying to survive? Life is much more nuanced than yes or no. So much of it is painted grey, if not all of it. Societies paint over parts with black and white to establish their ideas of morality but over time the color blends and fades back into grey for the next society to paint over it. What do you think is objectively right or wrong? This is an actual question. I want to understand why and how you think. Why do you go the path that you do? Not enough people are willing to answer those questions sadly.

This man's "key to happiness" is to have no hope or goals

[@dakotajones9709]

He stated he seeks peace over happiness. "Hope" and "goals" are different words for desire. So "this man's key to peace is to have no desires". Or more specifically not being attached to the outcome. And that's 100% the way to be at peace. How have your goals treated you in the past year?

This guy sounds like his way of dealing with life until he dies is to be dead inside so he feels no pain but at the cost of not feeling pure joy and love. If he was truly in power then he could let himself feel pain and defeat it almost instantly and in return he’d be allowed to look forward to things and believe is things that he is hopeful for.

All idols, all ideals, imaginings of gaining something bring suffering on the road to attain them, if received the pleasure is momentary, followed by loss, fear of loss, or a feeling of emptiness followed by a new ideal. Repeat cycle ad infinitum.

Certainly, owing on is good, but the not caring, people will always take it too far. He is a satanist. That is why he is here.

@@johnmadsen37 He could still not care but work out simply because he enjoys working out. Or he could just not be eating and goes on walks to contemplate life. Also, while I agree it sounds like Nihilism, I dont think it has to be "depressing". The idea that nothing matters gives you the chance to make everything matter. You can create those things YOU want to care about and want to matter. You arent told to care about X thing because it is your decision. Dear Positive Nihilist.

My idea of right and wrong changes as I gain more experience and learn of different ways people live their lives. At this very moment, I wouldnt intervene but I wouldnt be to fond of it. It doesnt directly affect me so my care for it is quite nonchalant. I am ok with abortions as I think it is the mother's choice whether or not they want to keep the baby because its their body.

Jesse's silent prayer is very in alignment with James - dont judge, dont attach to thoughts, let reality be as it is etc. I find his perplexed responses to James a bit perplexing.

[@DrunkenBoatCaptain]

@Without Form Agree with all that. I think there is also a bit of conflict in Christianity which Jesse exemplifies. There is the mystic origin of Jesus's teachings (which are all about finding peace through surrender to Life in the present). And then there is the church and the idea of good fighting a war with evil. Sounds like James went to the mystic source purely through his own investigations.

[@CelticSpiritsCoven]

@@DrunkenBoatCaptain That is not what Jesus taught. At all.

[@CelticSpiritsCoven]

@Without Form There are some truths in life that you haven't put enough of an interest to comprehend (or to even be aware of). Complete rejection w/o even reading the book makes no sense.

[@CelticSpiritsCoven]

​@Without Form But you've rejected the idea that god is real. You never had the motivation to find out for yourself by reviewing the evidence. It is true that understanding cannot be downloaded into a person's brain against their will. Truth can be given to a person however. It's up to the person to evaluate it to decide if it is true or not. And this is where we think you fail. There is much evidence that could make any reasonable person believe that god is real, but most people simply don't want to find out. This is what we think is your problem. You don't want to know. You just want to reject god's existence because it's convenient for you. So... "god doesn't exist" is in your mind. It isn't reality and it isn't truth. The mere implication if god were real would mean something astounding that would personally affect you. So we can't understand why you wouldn't review the evidence if you are a rational person who wants to know the truth. How can you know the truth if you haven't evaluated the truth claims?

When a robbery is taking place and the police arrive, naturally the robber goes to the second floor to evade. The robber keeps going up and up, in search of escape, desperate to not get caught. This is how the ego works in man. Perfectly displayed in this man. You cannot fix your own problems, no more than you can kill your own ego. Nothing strengthens the ego more than someone who is trying to kill it. His lack of emotion and robotic nature only shows he does not possess the kingdom of heaven within.
