If you remove "lighter" schizophrenic people from the equation, the whole thing starts to look more like immortality. It's just that it's not too common yet.

And then there are those factors that cause depression. We should not give them authority either.

No one does. many lie about it. Especially lying preachers.

We have evidence of nature. We have no evidence of a god. — Gnostic Christian Bishop

This is not true, I think. There are some experts who claim God has been identified by modern radio-telescopes, radio-astronomy at the very fringes of our own Universe, almost as if honeycombing this universe and all others too! I'm not kidding you. :grin:

Check for God on ghost setting of radio-waves frequencies! :grin:

And why should they disagree? Is there some alternative that makes more sense? — jgill

Let's separate natural water (with minerals and salts) and laboratory water (H2O).
Further, the balanced formula for laboratory water:
H2O + H2O <-> H3O+ + OH- (water + water to and from ammonium ion and hydroxide ion)

Let's, at least, start with the photons of the electro-magnetic spectrum. You find energy there, for sure.
Photons, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon
The Electro-magnetic spectrum, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum
Let's also have in mind how the Black Holes consume photons and all else, that is, the nature of photon consuming black holes. Black holes, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole

Are you young?

Try to understand the opposite, that everything is running as normal and that you have a feeling that this is going to be a normal day. So the OP depicts an example where something may become wrong. I see nothing unusual about this. This may be a perfectly healthy person or indeed a patient, one instance of psychosis counted, depending on the history of the person.

Psychologically, it's a mature view to be alert with your feelings in line with what you do. If you get uneasy, there may be something about to happen that's wrong, either present or in near future.
Check out "work flow" if you like. Smart people include their feelings in doing their work, to sense with the entire body of the nervous system, of which brain is part.

The stories where people have avoided awful situations by taking into account their feelings are not too common. So I advise that you keep track of experienced people and their sense of the World and how they work it all.

As much as Natural Rights, here is one legal account of Human Rights in USA:

"Human rights in the United States"

"Treaties ratified"

"The U.S. has signed and ratified the following human rights treaties:
* International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) (ratified with 5 reservations, 5 understandings, and 4 declarations.)[266]
* Optional protocol on the involvement of children in armed conflict
* International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination
* Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment
* Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees [267]
* Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography [268]

Non-binding documents voted for:
Universal Declaration of Human Rights [269]"

To say that these legal rights have no impact is to have no sense of reality, IMO!

Cannabis provides the best laughs ever! IMO. The laughing is so strong and to the heart that I remember it to this day, more than 20 years later. Great stuff. Never becomes unfashionable. Still IMO. Cheers!

There is depression on both sides of the scale: depression straight and schizophrenia with depression and these 2 cases are quite different. Other than that, I agree with Praxis.

One harder notion of Solipsism, yet not so extreme:

So let's assume that the impression of nature, of beauty, of colors have qualia to them in such a fashion that context of them in the brain, in the soul (that I think exists) makes them special to the person in space and time by the unique experiences they make in a person's mentality. This creates a special kind of solipsism as well such that the true magnificence of experiences overall has this subtle, non-investigative quality of person that is firmly set by context, a contextualism in the brain, in the soul. Sure, overt feelings are now fairly easy to determine by for example fMRI and other. But this is not the issue, it is the depth of contextuality in the mind that makes those other qualities of feelings inaccessible overall because they are impossible to describe and impossible to entirely investigate.
The mystery of the World, one type of religious experience, "God's temple" in us in the grand World, much stronger too with the enhancement of science and questions over existence. So I say that to live is to have qualia, solipsism and contextualism in this fashion, the imprint on each and everyone by the World as a whole!

Good life, everyone!

Note: One account of Qualia can be found in Philosophy of Mind, 2nd ed. by Jaegwon Kim, chapter 8, for instance.
Note 2: I use Solipsism in the Contextual Solipsism sense.
Note 3: I think it's fair to say there are degrees of Solipsism.

Perhaps there is a loop:
To improve on democratic laws and regulations all the time (Kantian Ethics) and so to achieve a greater being-in-nature, a stronger in-touch presence in the World (Virtue Ethics).

But to improve laws and regulations until they are perfect, require cognition and the way I see it, the greater being-in-nature, a stronger in-touch presence in the World actually has the cognition of improving laws and regulations as cause.

Consequently, the virtue ethics of greater being-in-nature, a stronger in-touch presence in the World is the effect of improving the democratic laws and regulations in this self-reinforcing circle!

Good?

Note on Parapsychology, here a link on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapsychology
Also the paranormal (science), Wikipedia as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranormal

There are serious inquiries going on in the World and these can carry a title like this: "The Fantastic Phenomena or of Freak Nature as Accounts of Reality".

Compare the Golden Rule from above with this, the Categorical Imperative:
"Act only on that maxim whereby you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law."
Is this not an improvement to the Golden Rule? I think so.

The Improved Golden Rule (maxim):
"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you while you at the same time will that this can be a universal law."

Right? See forming laws by the legislative bodies, that they are formed to be helpful and benevolent to all in the population who live under it.

Crazy people may invoke the golden rule on false premises. Ideally, the golden rule works perfectly, but crazy people have weird ways with it, generating dangerous thoughts. And then you have the amoral, those not even trying...

Example:
If you became crazy as I am crazy, you would have committed these crazy actions too (against you)!

Kant's work, 2nd Critique, Critique of Practical Reason, for Kantian Ethics added sanity to the Golden Rule. Note.

I'd also say untreated depression and untreated, deeper schizophrenia lead to (more) suicidal thoughts!

So I think it's wise to check yourself if you suffer during prolonged period. Let me also recommend Cipralex (Escitalopram) for depression and 3-step method, scientific ECT, medical sleep assistance (Diazepam-based) and Zyprexa (Olanzapine) for schizophrenia. It's also important to know that psychiatry is vastly superior to any psychological "tricks".

I've added some actual tips so that people may get help rapidly instead of going through a whole lot of trouble. I hope this is tolerated here. ☺
