Even if Jesus isn’t still alive in heaven then His message of forgiveness might still ring true where the more people you forgive in an afterlife then logically the more people there’d be to sustain your afterlife! Perhaps one reason we’re yet incapable of reconciling science and religion is that we forget how tranquil a deciduous forest could be when there has been so much deforestation in temperate climates over the past centuries. In other words the Amazon rainforest or Siberia are simply too intense in comparison to the relaxing vibe of a deciduous forest. So the way the peacefulness of a supernatural religion could exist is on a par with the New World’s deciduous forests remaining intact after hundreds of years in a way that didn’t happen but is possible through afforestation!

One way for science to view a supernatural Christian religion might be to re-interpret the pleas of Jesus for forgiveness as also being retrospective for ancient religions rather than just for subsequent generations. After all Jesus was raised in His very early years in Ancient Egypt after His parents fled Palestine. So the way modern religions fail to build as many temples as Ancient Egypt might imply that many religions are actually incapable of forming a very powerful theocracy even if they wanted to in a way that limits how powerful their supernatural realm might be. One way Ancient Egypt might be redemptive is that if people were all evil then they might not actually mind re-incarnation because they’d be re-incarnating into other evil people who’d be just as hedonistic as their prior life. As such a fear of re-incarnation might be slightly exaggerated in ethical and amoral people because they’re not fully self-aware of how self-sacrificing and nice they are such that they might view re-incarnation into future ethical people as being accidentally slightly boring! Thankfully few modern religions took cryogenic mummification too seriously!

One version of a Christian afterlife would be if other dead souls were like a recorded telepathic message of their prior selves from a distinct afterlife were an afterlife very deterministic or solipsistic. After all the problem of other minds would still exist in an afterlife. One way to reconcile Hinduism with Christianity would be if you were reincarnated like the baby Jesus in the manger at Christmas! Perhaps an unusual way to deal with re-incarnation would be to look at infantile photos of yourself with a milk bottle and a pram to brace for being an infant in the next life!

If the mind is 2-dimensional and the brain is 3-dimensional then one version of antirealism might be that the brain actually isn’t conscious where everything in your body and in your sensory perception take turns being conscious depending on what you focus on. For example if you close your eyelids you can choose not to focus on the darkness and opt to be less conscious of your eyes. I’ve often used the word kaleidoscopic as a synonym of rainbow or psychedelia or fractals but only recently on YouTube discovered how refracting more light into a mirrored colour pattern can create such beautiful geometrical art. So a kaleidoscope will bigger than it actually is if you look into it as if our eye ball could also appear bigger than it actually is to our brain. So if a kaleidoscope can appear astronomical then maybe our conscious impression of the night sky can also be a partially internal sensation! The iris around our eye’s pupil is like a diamond that reflects the image from the retina back onto the retina repeatedly!

A drum is one of the most basic musical instruments where the sound of the drum can almost be embodied as if our mind was gaseous and diffuse. In a water pool you could almost think of the colours at the bottom as the edge of the water rather than as the edge of the object as if colours elsewhere were air molecules bouncing off the surface of the object. If vision were 2D then it’d follow that hearing might be 2D too as if everything we heard were in our ears rather than in the atmosphere. The complexity of a drum beat can almost be a deterrent to understanding the mind of the drummer as if to deflect the mind-body problem. A drummer can be circular where other band members are re-interpreting the drum sound while the drummer is also re-interpreting the singers and guitarists.

One way to interpret a belief in an eternal afterlife is that people might underestimate how hard it is to live to 70 or 80 when many people in the ancient world failed to live past 40 or 50. As such a belief in an eternal life might be a form of humility to live to an older age when Europeans or Americans might underestimate how fierce Japanese people might be to live until their 90. Some young people might be flawed in taking a huge lifespan for granted.

The problem of evil exists in all systems including an afterlife. So one way an afterlife belief could backfire is if people no longer cared about anyone being murdered because the victims were claimed to have received an afterlife as compensation. Yet an afterlife isn’t just competing against science and materialism but also the mathematics of probability. So even if people couldn’t disprove an afterlife such an afterlife could still be rendered absurd if the odds of achieving an afterlife were little more than a lottery. For example if Islam took seriously the claim of being rewarded with 72 virgins in an afterlife then they could assess that afterlife materialistically only to find that Arabia simply isn’t sufficiently overpopulated to satisfy that particular afterlife. After all certain evangelical Christian groups in America have polygamy only to find that if one man has dozens of wives then dozens of men will have no wife. So if religious people felt a short afterlife had a 2/3 chance of success while a medium length afterlife had a 51% chance of success than anything longer would have decreasing odds of success. As such if people stopped caring much about their religious faith system then a last resort might be to equate an afterlife with a collective near-death experience as if mental time froze just before their death and ultimate reincarnation. In that case a near-death experience might still partially comply with materialism if victims simply tried to remember their relatives until the memory reified as a projection before death.

Uniting Nations - Out of Touch

A biocentric and deistic account for Abrahamic beliefs in genesis might be how the observer effect means that time elapsed so quickly for God before Earth’s creation along with how short-lasting animal life is that it might have felt like the universe took a few days to create were there a deistic God!

One way neurons in the brain could be viewed as optical fibres is if each sense from smell to hearing to touch to taste is somehow reducible to light. One way to think of a dream is if our sense of smell is reduced to differentiate the dream from reality. When I thought of this earlier on today I’d a sudden retrieval of repressed visual memories from Croatia and Portugal over two years ago where the different climates had an alternate humidity and scent.

Pantheism might sound megalomaniacal until you realise that no amount of spiritual pride or violent lucid dreams or sensory solipsism would match the physical strength of top black athletes nor the amount of charity among the poorest people!

An immoral version of forgiveness is that no amount of vengeance, torture or murder is sufficient were the aim to dehumanise the original perpetrators such that only forgiveness would suffice! So who knows if Ancient Rome’s conversion to Christianity also had a Machiavellian element!

Nirvana as a peaceful afterlife might be more convincing to scientists than a heaven of bliss because were a shared afterlife only dependent on other souls and not on God than any bliss would be from the charity of others rather than from an omnipotent God. So from a more impartial standpoint maybe a Christian heaven would have an altering amount of happiness rather than a steady amount of happiness. Perhaps a problem in Christianity is to reconcile themselves to a relaxing heaven rather than just a happy heaven! For example believing in a very happy afterlife might lead to a volatile mindset of giving up the afterlife altogether whereas believing in a happy afterlife might help avoid a crisis of faith.

Pantheism might not ever be a large religion but by the limits of its own belief system of a shared unconscious might relate to the most extremely spiritual people almost as an exclusive group. Even if there’d be very few pantheists it’s possible that there might be very high-status people who are at least tolerant of pantheism given the self-sufficiency of the faith! So an ethical version of pantheism would have to limit how splendid an evil version of pantheism where all pantheists might struggle with humility.

If a supernatural afterlife was indirectly connected to a materialistic system then one inference would be that any lay person who promoted an afterlife would be inherently nicer than others who didn’t offer anyone else an afterlife. Yet the catch is that they couldn’t downplay how nice they are to offer an afterlife if God wasn’t directly connected to the material world. In other words the lay people would themselves be representatives of a tentative afterlife to atheists. So how nice people are can be subjective when religious people try to be humble but therein lies the mystery as to whether they’re downplaying how nice they are to offer an afterlife in the context of being grateful to everyone else in their belief system also an afterlife! This line of reasoning would be useful to counteract racists that some religious people had at least tried to offer an afterlife even if they were abandoned by others in their faith.

One way Catholicism as a supernatural belief system verges on a materialistic system is through a negative that elderly Catholics aren’t evil. Perhaps Catholicism could make more sense if young adults weren’t actually needed seeing as the religion isn’t a military. A dilemma with viewing a religion militantly is that warfare mightn’t be very ethical to begin with. For example elderly people can be so serious that evil elderly people could outcompete younger people if the country converted to evil which would make it harder for the country to convert back to ethics.

If Jesus wasn’t a physical God then it could still have been ethical for Jesus to declare himself God because amoral people in Ancient Rome weren’t owed politeness. So from my viewpoint it’s still acceptable to view Jesus as a cultural God even if He didn’t create the world! A Christian version of science might be that Jesus was in fact God in ancient history but that he’s no longer God and is now more of a prophet of God.

Young Jesus Heals Mentally Sick Man - The Young Messiah scene

An evolutionary argument for the existence of Christianity might fail when Ancient Rome would have appeared to have been the victim of evil by converting to Christianity in elevating the crucifixion of Jesus above all other Roman soldiers who died in battle!

One way an uncanny valley effect might occur might be in how large groups of strangers can interpret modern architecture in unusual ways. So the transparency of glass in a huge glass shopping centre might appear materialistic to some people and invisible to other people. So even if people identify as materialists they might differ in how they perceive materialism. The way others try to be materialistic might mislead others into thinking they’re immaterial to have somehow exceeded their own perception of materialism. For example materialism and science are connected but not the same where someone could identify as a materialist without knowing much science only to become more materialistic than a scientist when science can be open-ended. Similarly people have different physiques where focusing a lot on your walking stride might make you think others who walk faster than you are hyperfocused only that their postures might in fact be unconscious.

Classical instruments used to remix pop songs could expose just how good the pop song was in a way that reveals that both the original singer and the listeners might never have been as grateful as they should have. In other words even if we love a pop song we might not love it sufficiently relative to a classical version of the beat. So we might accidentally downplay the ethnicity of the singer in concocting a much more extreme beat that wouldn’t be possible in another country. So the harpsichord can reveal just how trance like a pop keyboard could actually be. Did Eminem think of the lyrics first and then created a magical beat afterwards or are we deceived by how good the musical beat is where Eminem created the beat before the lyrics and was merely more emphatic than others in describing an absurd beat? This is potentially music anti-realism at play! Is the original pop song an accidental form of redemption for America’s invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq by insisting on a hypermasculine vibe? Or perhaps is the classical remix merely a disproof of non-musicians thinking they could ever be as good as a musician where the subjectivity of rap could make us overconfident in thinking we could create the beat ourselves?

“An average person from Laos is 155.89cm (5 feet 1.37 inches) tall.”

I’d a dream last night in which I was walking around a DIY shop only to find a small male adult lecture me on angels not existing and that the west of Ireland is a victim of the queen. It’s possible that religion and science are capable of being reconciled through athleticism in a way that isn’t fully reductionistic. So smaller adults are capable of being far more reflective of the humility offered by a supernatural religion only if they were committed to the religion. For example the way certain Catholic Mediterranean countries tend to be slightly shorter in height than Ireland and how communist Laos is very short might relate to the cultures in those countries being more ethnically cohesive than Ireland. Yet height is a bit beyond conscious control and can be genetic.

If your mental vision doesn’t fully reflect the physical world then rotating your head would produce a slightly different angle then what would be implied by your own vision.

A problem with hell is that no matter how hard you prayer it might fail to outmatch the permanent focus of a solipsistic mind and the blankness of an unconscious mind such that it'd be difficult to pray for someone to be sent to hell.

Heterosexual genetics might be one way a religion works where women who are born with humble or outgoing personalities or assume them in later life could end up serving as a background that over centuries and many generations would reinforce virtues of a faith system like forgiveness! After all men would have to partially mimic the value system of women in order to attract them!

Even if we solve the mystery of the mind-body problem we might still be left with an even bigger mystery as to why so few people had even cared about the mind-body problem! Perhaps no matter how much we analyse a physical phenomenon anything amoral by being more expansive might still physically trump ethics such that an interpretation of the mind can be spiritual rather than just physical in order to satisfy ethics. Unfortunately any theory of quantum gravity would be backed by the evil of nuclear weaponry such that it might not be too objective for a social group! So a non-real interpretation of gravity such as my Euler theory could satisfy an ethnic perception of gravity to add symbolic cohesion in a gravitational cult group even if it won’t be quite as sexy as other quantum gravity theories(!):

In the same way that we don't feel our brain we also don't feel our skeleton where we can only feel our skeleton indirectly through our posture. Yet we know our heart beats so fast that it'd be almost impossible to directly perceive our heart without concluding the heart doesn't physically exist. Anyway dualism isn't just about mind and brain but also how our tactile muscles differ from our near-dead bones! As such the way brain regions connect with one another for conscious thought might mimic how rhythmic our muscles are when we walk with a distinct posture. Some people might think that we can feel our bones by pressurising one finger against another finger but a dualist might think that the tactile sensation might really be our squished skin rather than the bones of our finger! Postures are often emphasised on the catwalk(!):

If I fail to find posthumous fame for my theories of non-reality then I might perhaps still get recognition for being a good psychologist of philosophers and scientist in what would be a very meta title for trying to understand the mindsets of other philosophers and scientists seeking fame! Perhaps for an apparent crackpot like myself to appear persuasive then I'd have to be more grateful for other supposed crackpots! I was never too interested in the microtubule theory of consciousness for having ignored the notion of temporal relations but the theory might be wonderful to me for the inverted reason for having limited other overly reductionistic theories of the mind! Too many neuroscientists are obsessed about patterns of neurons without realising that there wasn't a hidden neuron that they forgot about to give rise to consciousness. As such the microtubule theory forced the issue by implying that other nervous patterns in the brain that would hypothetically give rise to consciousness might really just be an understated version of an intra-cellular neuronal theory of the mind as we see in microtubules.

Science in medieval history arose to oppose evil versions of religions like witchcraft and monarchy rather than to oppose religion itself or to directly assert what reality is. If we were trying to be as upbeat about materialism as religious people are about God then materialists might have to convey how tranquil it is to have a skull and a skeleton!

If I'm ever redemptive to scientists it might be because I forced the issue by claiming that anti-realism is compatible with the physical world temporarily existing during waking life and disappearing during dreams. Even though many materialists might disagree with me on symbolic grounds when the mind is a mystery they might ironically fail to disagree with me thoroughly enough when an absolute materialist could only fathom the material world as permanently existing throughout their life. Perhaps this is one reason why western materialists might fail to match the seriousness of Asian materialists who might have been materialists for millennia!

No matter how possessive a pantheist could be of others a pantheist still won’t parrot another person’s words and behaviour in a conversation!

If pure dualism were correct then each of our brains could all in fact have almost the exact same structure and wiring seeing as any differences in mind would be caused by a fundamental mind rather than by brain differences.

There are many people wondering what will a solution to the hard problem of consciousness resemble be it a song or a mathematical equation. Yet if God has the last laugh then the answer to the hard problem of consciousness might in a word be Asia. The paradox of Asian people is that they’re all far more tranquil and contemplative in their complexion compared to Caucasians or blacks and yet Asian people fail to care about the deep metaphysics of the brain or the mind. Instead Asian countries appear far more obsessed about the nuances of emotions. So if you were truly humble as a European person then Asia could represent mysterianism as a solution to the hard problem of consciousness because Asia’s lack of worry about the meaning of consciousness could resemble a surrender to the inherent insolubility of the mind-body problem. The way most Asian people aren’t fully monotheist might imply that they wouldn’t view the physics of the brain as being intrinsically ethical where ethics becomes a relative concept.

“New mysterianism, or commonly just mysterianism, is a philosophical position proposing that the hard problem of consciousness cannot be resolved by humans. The unresolvable problem is how to explain the existence of qualia (individual instances of subjective, conscious experience).”

Christianity might always struggle with economic and political problems. Yet when it comes to accepting Jesus as a Son of God perhaps we should just appreciate the fact that we’re not under imperial Roman occupation!

Materialism and pantheism could be more reconcilable if a temporary afterlife were re-envisaged as euthanasia. So if pantheism were taken literally then the way you’d eventually re-incarnate after God removing you from an afterlife would be comparable to suicide if a trace of God were in you. In other words God would be killing a speck of God. Yet an advantage of a temporary afterlife would be that re-incarnation might be less painful. For pantheists a belief in heaven would be a supernatural glorification of suicide in a way that’s sarcastic when we don’t want everyone being suicidal in real life. By contrast immediate re-incarnation after death would lead to a natural and impersonal death. Pantheists aren’t obliged to say they’re suicidal when we don’t have to be extremists in our own faith. Yet if pantheism had to compete against hypothetical systems of evil in the future then pantheism is capable of adapting. A consolation of a suicidal version of pantheism would be that it could easily outcompete lots of evil people for how wild or nihilistic they could appear to others. Unfortunately rebellious personalities can be impressionable not only to good people but also to evil people.

Satanism and pantheism are theoretically reconcilable if evil people yearned to be tortured in hell rather than to be the torturer. It seems paradoxical but a belief in hell would actually be ethical to evil victims because it’d force them in life to be a perfectionist at minimising a lesser evil as much as possible. Hell can relate to the potential indulgence of suicidal ideation where they flaw in promoting hell as a doctrine of ethics is that it presents evil people as being so fundamental as to almost be supernatural.

Anti-realism could serve as an emergency exit door to allow for a break from longer spells of materialism.

A combative advantage of antirealism might be a slightly enhanced sensory vigilance for dodging and anticipating punches from your attacker. Yet an anti-realist might not be so skilled as to dodge a bullet!

Absolute forgiveness as a virtue that relates to forgiving absolute evil. I believe relative forgiveness is always virtue because it requires self-sacrifice and humility. After all the problem of evil dictates that evil can never be defeated and only tamed where we must forgive evil people to stop them being eternally evil. Yet the supernatural world is held to a double standard where God could theoretically forgive everything. Yet absolute forgiveness requires absolute transcendence in a way that’s hateful of materialism. The afterlife might still contain a memory of the material world where only an eternity of time could distinguish both perceptual realms. Theoretically Jesus could forgive the nazis in WW2 where we could trust that he wouldn’t fully forgive them. Yet the dilemma is a separation of powers where many Christians might not approve of Jesus having the ability to forgive the nazis even if Jesus voluntarily declined to forgive them. Some might fear that Christians would be too subordinate to Jesus if Jesus forgave literally everyone. Ultimately it’s not individual forgiveness of a serial killer that’s insurmountable but really collective evil under a genocide against non-Christians being forgiven by Christians could lead to accusations against Christians of preferential forgiveness or even racism. That is to say Jewish souls could not be compelled by a Christian afterlife to forgive the nazis because Jewish people didn’t consent to forgiveness being an absolute virtue and only a relative virtue.

An asteroid has an irregular shape meaning that the centre of gravity would be chaotic. Hence even under Newtonian versions of gravity would an asteroid’s surface have different rates of gravity resembling a Euler force. Theoretically under Einsteinian gravity the asteroid’s gravity might even out at different heights in the atmosphere yet this might be negligible if the atmosphere is almost non-existent.

One reason a snake is so creepy is that the creature has a disproportionately small head relative to their extremely long body. This implies that the creature isn’t fully proprioceptive of their own body implying that there’s minimal self-awareness in general.

Baby Tarantulas
Scientific names are needed to stop horrendous personifications of “baby” or “child” tarantulas! Looking at little spiderlings who’ll grow into big adults can make them appear less threatening. A tarantula will intimidate anyone who tries to view themselves as intimidating to other people! Investigating the perception of peculiar insects might be helpful for those with mental disorders like autism and schizophrenia. Then again they might only make you more violent! Alternatively talking to lots of women could create the opposite problem for introverted men where they’d become too socially relaxed! The whiteness of spider webs can look ghostly as if the spiders had an existence on the threshold of death. The many eyes of the spider makes their vision so strong that the spider might not have to think about their visual perception making them less self-aware. We could go so far as to investigate quantum wave-particle duality through the spider’s nervous system. Perhaps the huge amount of parallax in having so many eyes might relate to randomness rather than determinism.

If light is conscious then it might sound ableist for the congenitally blind. Yet gravity travels at the same speed as light according to Einstein. Hence our sense of touch could be described as luminal if we focused on the gravity waves of the object’s weight rather than the texture.

On posts 5, 9 and 13 page 14 I mentioned how animals could be used to investigate antirealism. Maybe one reason we find sharks, snakes and spiders creepy is that not only do they perceive a force differently with their sense organs but their brain might also interpret the force differently. For example their imbalanced centre of gravity might imply they’re physically far more aware of the force of gravity compared to humans.
