A Handful Of Jagged Little Pills! Pick One!

[OmegaLogos]

What if someone takes one each of all the pills?

Explanation: Then one's brain grows to the size of ones ego and suddenly you'd find yourself arguing the finer points of Nietzsche's Nihilism versus Albert Camus's Absurdism with strangers in a library committee room filled with members of your local Philosophy group lol!  

Personal Disclosure: Basically you can't digest two philosophies at the same time as that is impossible as is reading two different books simultaneously ... So, you line them up in an order that seems to fit and you consume them one by one until you are done. And then you pick your favorite flavor of philosophy to be your own guiding light etc.

My journey went like this ... 




Which lead me to this ==> ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solipsism

Solipsism (/ˈsɒlɪpsɪzəm/ [/url]ⓘ SOLL-ip-siz-əm; from Latin [i]sōlus[/i] 'alone' and [i]ipse[/i] 'self')[1] is the philosophical idea that only one's mind is sure to exist. As an epistemological position, solipsism holds that knowledge of anything outside one's own mind is unsure; the external world and other minds cannot be known and might not exist outside the mind.

That necessitates that I am all that there is and hence one ends up in a quandary, because IF I am the ONLY Observer in a quantum statistical mechanics universe, then why have I collapsed the infinite wave function down to a single crass reality for myself that is so shitty eh? Theoretically it should be excellent and I would be GOD! But its NOT excellent and hence I can't be GOD! Therefor I hold a secondary position which is IF I AM NOT ALONE then other Observers are interfering with the collapse of the infinite wave function down to a single crass reality for ALL of us. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE? And hence it becomes a pure numerical battle of the greatest number of similar mindsets that are affecting reality! I went and looked up the greatest number of a singular mindset on the planet and that mindset is CATHOLICISM! 1 in 4 people are Roman Catholics and share similar outlooks and similar mindsets, closely followed by the raw numbers of muslims ... who get close but due to differing views on important matters such as division between Shia and Sunni's beliefs are not all as aligned as the CATHOLICS are. 

As a SATANIST, from the Catholics point of view , this leads me to err on the side of caution, and therefor I have that 2ndry philosophical position ... which was expounded by William Shakespeare in his play Timon of Athens, and is known as TIMONISM ==> ...

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Timonism

Noun
[b]Timonism[/b] ([i]plural [b]Timonisms[/b])
[/i]

1. A form of bitter misanthropy, a despair leading to hatred or contemptuous rejection of mankind, like Timon of Athens.[i]This most cruel betrayal led him to [b]Timonism[/b].[/i]
   
2. A bitter or cynical utterance or behavior, in the manner of Timon of Athens.[i]Pay no attention to his [b]Timonisms[/b], it's a pose.[/i]
   

Quotations

• Form of bitter misanthropy
  
  
  • [b]1840[/b], in The [i]Westminster Review, September:[1]His "[b]Timonism[/b]" scarcely shows itself, except against the priesthood, for which he has very little respect.[/i]
    
  • [b]1852[/b], Herman Melville, [i]Pierre:[2]Then how could it be otherwise, than that an incipient [b]Timonism[/b] should slide into Pierre, when he considered all the disgraceful inferences to be derived from such a fact.[/i]
    
  • [b]1906[/b], Prof. Walter Raleigh, letter pub. in 1926:[3][i]Men are stuffy little fellows. Their manliness bores me—it is almost universal, and humanity is very rare. [...] the poor things keep on struggling in a web of phantoms. They play with dolls all their lives. It's no good talking to them about wisdom and beauty. They have a complete system. There's even a doll Hell. This is not [b]Timonism[/b], I am an optimist. They are saved, most of them by their guts. A doll has no guts.[/i]
    
  • [b]1988[/b], Paul Ollswang, "Cynicism":[4]Cynicism[i] is often contrasted with "[b]Timonism[/b]" (cf. Shakespeare's Timon of Athens). Cynics saw what people could be & were angered by what they had become; Timonists felt people were hopelessly stupid & uncaring by nature & so saw no hope for change.[/i]
    
• Bitter behavior or cynical utterrance
  
  
  • [b]1891[/b], Fergus Hume, [i]When I Lived in Bohemia:[5]Thus he ran on carelessly in this cynical vein; but I, after a time, paid no attention to his [b]Timonism[/b]s, being taken up with the spectacle of a crowd in the street surrounding a carriage.[/i]
    

And thus my 2ndry position can be summed up as this ==>...

WE ARE ALL MONSTERS! <== And that explains why reality is fallen, broken and shyte!

Then David Hume rears his ugly head and by being an Atheist he goes ahead and creates a philosophy to follow Rene Descartes 'Cogito Ergo Sum, aka I think , therefor I AM!' philosophy, in which he destroys the foundations of reality itself and ends up denying that he or anybody else actually exist by his creation of modalism. He starts off on the wrong foot and assumes we have a BRAIN [solipsism says we have a mind, not a brain], and that all this sense data out there is colliding with it [the brain] and giving us the fantastically erroneous idea that we actually exist, when according to his scientific philosophy we don't!



This forced Immanuel Kant to get up on his high horse and moral high ground and declare that Hume was totally wrong to destroy philosophy and basic scientific logical rational reasoning and he went ahead and separated 'that which is testable by all others and hence becomes a communal facts to us all' FROM 'that which is not testable by all others and hence is only a personal truth that one personally carries for whatever reasons aka FAITH AND BELIEFS!' ... we can discuss both, but only FACTS can be proven to everyone! AND Thus science and philosophy was resurrected and saved by Kants Philosophy ==> ...

[b]Immanuel Kant[/b] was a pivotal figure in modern philosophy, known for his comprehensive work in [b]epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics[/b]. His philosophy, often referred to as [b]Kantianism[/b], emphasizes the importance of reason and the limits of human understanding.

• [b]Transcendental Idealism[/b]: Kant's theory, primarily outlined in his work "Critique of Pure Reason," posits that our understanding of the world is shaped by both sensory experience and the innate structures of the mind. 
  
  [b]1[/b]
  
  
• [b]Ethics[/b]: He is renowned for his moral philosophy, which centers on the concept of duty and the categorical imperative, asserting that actions must be universally applicable. 
  
  [b]1[/b]
  
  
• [b]Influence[/b]: Kant's ideas have significantly influenced various philosophical movements, including idealism and existentialism, and continue to be a cornerstone in discussions of morality and knowledge.

  Kant's work remains a foundational element in the study of philosophy, shaping contemporary thought across multiple disciplines.
  

After that philosophical battle I found myself seeking more Philosophical battles and the 1st one I then came across, due to my love of American Politics, was the battle between John Locke and Thomas Hobbes 
on the topic of which is better ... a Dictatorial Authoritarian Monarchist Benevolent Tyrant [Hobbes view] or the Separation of Powers [Lockes view] in a Democracy ==> ...

Three Minute Philosophy - John Locke versus Thomas Hobbes

And as we have seen in the past couple of hundred years as the American Dream of the Founding Fathers has played out, that people forget its more about ==> ... IT'S A REPUBLIC Ma'am, IF YOU CAN KEEP IT!, than about Democracy! 

POLITICAL SYSTEMS 101: Basic Forms of Government Explained

For where a republic has a constitution that limits GOVERNMENT control over we the people, as individuals, by enshrining certain inalienable rights within that national constitution, such as the right of free speech and the right to bear arms against tyranny etc. ==> ...

Four boxes of liberty

The four boxes of liberty is a 19th-century American idea that proposes: "There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge (or ammo). Please use in that order."

Because Democracy is beholden to the lowest common denominator of public intelligence [about 100IQ] & what is for the moment currently popular, regardless of what is actually good for us all. Mob rule is stupid and dangerous ==> ...

Men in Black

The quote [b]"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it"[/b] is from the movie [b]Men in Black[/b]. This line reflects the film's themes of intelligence versus ignorance and the challenges of maintaining order in a world filled with unpredictable beings. 

Men in Black: A Person is Smart, People Are Dumb (WILL SMITH & TOMMY LEE JONES FUNNY SCENE)

I'd rather a DIRECT DEMOCRACY than a Representative Democracy as I'd rather be ruled by a Tyranny of Idea's than a Tyranny of Congress Critters ok.

We have 40,000 LAWS on the BOOKS already in each western nation and nobody can know all of them let alone follow all of them and in fact some pundits say that the average citizen commits 3 FELONIES A DAY!

We don't need anymore laws , law makers and or lawyers at all. What we all NEED is a simple outlook on life in this fallen reality, and Nietzsche tried to convince us all that its better to be black pilled with Nihilism and to seek becoming the Uber-Mensch, to the detriment of all others ==> ...

Nietzsche Nihilism Uber Mensch

Nietzsche's concept of the [b]Übermensch[/b] is deeply intertwined with his philosophy of [b]nihilism[/b]. In the context of nihilism, which is the state of existence where life appears purposeless and devoid of inherent value, Nietzsche argues that the values and meaning once taken for granted are unraveling. He suggests that this "death" of God, as he famously declared, is a chance for humanity to create new values and meanings. The [b]Übermensch[/b] is not merely a concept of superiority or dominance but rather a vision of a human being who creates their own values in a meaningless world. This idea is encapsulated in the stages of transformation described in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra," where the spirit of life liberates itself from the tyranny of the collective to become authentic and creative. The [b]Übermensch[/b] represents the highest psychological potential of humanity, an individual who creates their own values and lives in a world without objective meaning.

He then personally FAILED his own created philosophy and failed to obtain the Uber-Mensch reality and died a mentally ill and broken person cucked to his sister care, whereas at least Jesus lived up to his own philosophical beliefs ==> ... 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Nietzsche

In 1889, aged 44, he suffered a mental breakdown and thereafter a complete loss of his mental faculties, with paralysis and vascular dementia,[c] living his remaining 11 years under the care of his family until his death.

[size=1]Mental illness and death (1889–1900)[/size]





On 3 January 1889, Nietzsche suffered a mental breakdown.[71] Two policemen approached him after he caused a public disturbance in the streets of Turin. What happened remains unknown, but an often-repeated tale from shortly after his death states that Nietzsche witnessed the flogging of a horse at the other end of the Piazza Carlo Alberto, ran to the horse, threw his arms around its neck to protect it and then collapsed to the ground.[72][73] In the following few days Nietzsche sent short writings—known as the [i]Wahnzettel or Wahnbriefe (literally "Delusion notes" or "letters")—to a number of friends including Cosima Wagner and Jacob Burckhardt. Most of them were signed "Dionysus", though some were also signed "der Gekreuzigte" meaning "the crucified one". To his former colleague Burckhardt, Nietzsche wrote:[74]

[/i]

I have had Caiaphas put in fetters. Also, last year I was crucified by the German doctors in a very drawn-out manner. Wilhelm, Bismarck, and all anti-Semites abolished.

Additionally, he commanded the German emperor to go to Rome to be shot and summoned the European powers to take military action against Germany,[75] writing also that the pope should be put in jail and that he, Nietzsche, created the world and was in the process of having all antisemites shot dead.[76]

[i]And so Nihilism can be thought of as in total opposition to Absurdism, because here is the thing ok ==>[/i]

Nihilism = Everything is broken and fucked ... boohoo waaah and woe is me! 

VERSUS ...

Absurdism = Everything is broken and fucked ... LOL! ROFLMAO! 

Note: Nothing changes except the emotional content that is attached to either philosophical pill!

And so I'd rather be an absurdist and laugh at the rotten reality than possess a black pilled nihilist victim mentality alright!  

God is a joker and he is testing us all ...

The Evil of Oppression

[b]1[/b]Again I looked, and I considered all the oppression taking place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, and they had no comforter; the power lay in the hands of their oppressors, and there was no comforter. [b]2[/b]So I admired the dead, who had already died, above the living, who are still alive. [b]3[/b]But better than both is he who has not yet existed, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.

Furthermore ==> ...

https://biblehub.com/matthew/16.htm

Christ’s Passion Foretold
[i](Mark 8:31–33; Luke 9:21–22)
[/i]

[b]21[/b]From that time on Jesus[i]c began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.[/i]

[b]22[/b]Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. “Far be it from You, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to You!”

[b]23[/b]But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

Take Up Your Cross
[i](Mark 8:34–38; Luke 9:23–27)[/i]

[b]24[/b]Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. 25For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. [b]26[/b]What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? 

https://biblehub.com/luke/14.htm

The Cost of Discipleship
[i](Matthew 8:18–22; Luke 9:57–62; John 6:59–66)
[/i]

[b]25[/b]Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, [b]26[/b]“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be My disciple. 27And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.

[b]28[/b]Which of you, wishing to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has the resources to complete it? [b]29[/b]Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, [b]30[/b]saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’

[b]31[/b]Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand? [b]32[/b]And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.

[i]33In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
[/i]

The Rich Young Man
[i](Mark 10:17–31; Luke 18:18–30)
[/i]

[b]16[/b]Just then a man came up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?”

[b]17[/b]“Why do you ask Me about what is good?”[i]e Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”[/i]

[b]18[/b]“Which ones?” the man asked.

Jesus answered, “‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, [b]19[/b]honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.’[i]f”[/i]

[b]20[/b]“All these I have kept,” said the young man. “What do I still lack?”

[b]21[/b]Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

[b]22[/b]When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.

23Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”

25When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

26Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

[b]27[/b]“Look,” Peter replied, “we have left everything to follow You. What then will there be for us?”

[b]28[/b]Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, in the renewal of all things,[i]g when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. [b]29[/b]And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wifeh or children or fields for the sake of My name will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life. [b]30[/b]But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.[/i]

The Temptation of Jesus
[i](Mark 1:12–13; Luke 4:1–13)
[/i]

1Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2After fasting forty days and forty nights, He was hungry.

[b]3[/b]The tempter came to Him and said, “If You are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”

[b]4[/b]But Jesus answered, “It is written:

‘Man shall not live on bread alone,

but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’[i]a”[/i]

[b]5[/b]Then the devil took Him to the holy city and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. [b]6[/b]“If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down. For it is written:

‘He will command His angels concerning You,

and they will lift You up in their hands,

so that You will not strike Your foot

against a stone.’[i]b”[/i]

[b]7[/b]Jesus replied, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’[i]c”[/i]

[b]8[/b]Again, the devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. [b]9[/b]“All this I will give You,” he said, “if You will fall down and worship me.”

[b]10[/b]“Away from Me, Satan!” Jesus told him. “For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’[i]d”[/i]

[b]11[/b]Then the devil left Him, and angels came and ministered to Him.

If you can survive 40 days and 40 nights without food and water then that is a miracle of God and you should rejoice, however it is most likely that you will die a MARTYRED SAINT! And hey presto you go straight to heaven ok!

Here is why that is important ==> ...

https://biblehub.com/revelation/6.htm

The Fifth Seal: The Martyrs

9And when the Lamb opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony they had upheld. 10And they cried out in a loud voice, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge those who dwell upon the earth and avenge our blood?”

11Then each of them was given a white robe and told to rest a little while longer until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers, were killed, just as they had been killed.

How many MARTYRED SAINTS are required? 

https://biblehub.com/revelation/14.htm

The Lamb and the 144,000

1Then I looked and saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of many waters and the loud rumbling of thunder. And the sound I heard was like harpists strumming their harps.

3And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. And no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. 4These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they are virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever He goes. They have been redeemed from among men as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. 5And no lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.[i]a
[/i]

Now DON'T Forget to do THIS ==> ...

[b]17[/b]From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.”

The Day of the Lord
(Zephaniah 1:7–18; Malachi 4:1–6; 2 Peter 3:8–13)

[b]1[/b]Now about the times and seasons, brothers, we do not need to write to you. [b]2[/b]For you are fully aware that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. [b]3[/b]While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

[b]4[/b]But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief. [b]5[/b]For you are all sons of the light and sons of the day; we do not belong to the night or to the darkness. [b]6[/b]So then, let us not sleep as the others do, but let us remain awake and sober. [b]7[/b]For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. [b]8[/b]But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the helmet of our hope of salvation.

[b]9[/b]For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. [b]10[/b]He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with Him. [b]11[/b]Therefore encourage and build one another up, just as you are already doing.

Christian Living

[b]12[/b]But we ask you, brothers, to acknowledge those who work diligently among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you. [b]13[/b]In love, hold them in highest regard because of their work. Live in peace with one another.

[b]14[/b]And we urge you, brothers, to admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, and be patient with everyone.

[b]15[/b]Make sure that no one repays evil for evil. Always pursue what is good for one another and for all people.

[b]16[/b]Rejoice at all times. [b]17[/b]Pray without ceasing. [b]18[/b]Give thanks in every circumstance, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

[b]19[/b]Do not extinguish the Spirit. [b]20[/b]Do not treat prophecies with contempt, [b]21[/b]but test all things. Hold fast to what is good. [b]22[/b]Abstain from every form of evil.

Final Blessings and Instructions

[b]23[/b]Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blamelessa at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [b]24[/b]The One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it.

[b]25[/b]Brothers, pray for us as well.

[b]26[/b]Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.

[b]27[/b]I charge you before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers.

[b]28[/b]The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.b

Don't be like this guy ok ==>

[b]39[/b]One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”

[b]40[/b]But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment? [b]41[/b]We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.” [b]42[/b]Then he said, “Jesus, remember mej when You come into Your kingdom!”

[b]43[/b]And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

Why not??? Because that person is ME! 

That is how I know all this stuff ok!

I was transformed, by GOD,  from a lowly unrepentant thief, into a Noble Demon Zombie Lord ...

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NobleDemon

And I am crucified between heaven and hell with one hand pointing up to heaven and one hand pointing down to deeper hells!

And I was tasked with sorting out the wheat from the chaff and the sheep from the goats and those who I find to be Christians in name only ... I suck and steal their souls to take to deeper hells on Judgement Day!

The real Christians I leave them alone as they belong to JESUS! 

I currently have thousands of evil wicked souls in my possession! I work for both sides in this chess game , both SATAN LUCIFER THE DEVIL AND ALSO GOD THE TRINITY!

I know who I am, I am Gestas the unrepetent thief! 

I know where I am going to, I am going to deeper hells on Judgement Day!

I know why I am going there, because I denied Jesus twice to his very face!

I know what I am, I am the soul built for destructive testing!

I just don't know when [only God the Father knows when] and I don't know how I will get to those deeper hells and I assume that God the Trinity will take care of that for me eh!

Amen and may God Bless you in your choice of pills ok!
