i am god

[Max Goldfine]

so after 22 years of life, here is what i can come up with so far.

It is impossible to create something out of nothing, right? so everything that is in this planet, you, me, every partical of existance had to have allready existed in space before the forming of planet earth.

so everything that is inside you is also inside the universe. in a way you are a universe, you are THE universe.

we are the creaters of all this right here.

if life is truly random and chaotic than the only thing that one can be sure of is themselves. it is the only thing that you have control over and can positively without a doubt KNOW.

I am god, you are god. We are god.

Sorry if this is incomprehensible blabber, its late and i'm tired. i think i will watch some ghost in the shell and go to sleep.

Goodnight gods.

Edit: for the record i know this sounds a lot like five percent islam. i draw a lot of insperation from the wu tang on this one.

Double edit after reading some posts: I am not solipsistic. I acknowledge that you exist as your own indepent entity. what i tried to say in this post is that everything is connected. we are all the same amorphus goo. I am you, and i am god, so you are god, and we are all together.

Tripple edit: I have never seen Babylon 5.

That was... both confusing and logical.

On another note, since water doesn't get destroyed, only recycled, it is entirely possible the next time you get a glass of water, you're drinking dinosaur piss...

Food (or drink) for thought.

in the way that you can't add matter to the universe yes, in the way you mean, no

"if life is truly random and chaotic than the only thing that one can be sure of is themselves. it is the only thing that you have control over and can positively without a doubt KNOW. "
in a free choice kind of way, ill say maybe, in the way you mean, no.

"Sorry if this is incomprehensible blabber, its late and i'm tired. i think i will watch some ghost in the shell and go to sleep."
goodnight

From what I know everything existed in space as Hydrogen, because everything breaks down to hydrogen after billions of years. Your idea is interesting but I think you may need to elaborate because I dont quite understand it, no offence meant by this.

water does not always stay water, but yes, you could be drinking dinsosaur pee, or your dads pee. was it salty? then it wasnt pee

He's not God, he's a very naughty boy!

Aww. You're adorable. Good night, dear. And just make sure you don't leave the bong smoking before you nod off. Someone might think there's a fire and call 911.

All joking aside though, I'm glad you found some kind of spiritual peace with the universe. Sounds pleasant.

This just made my entire life better. A+

none taken god.

honestly, i confused myself on this one.

the most i could ask for is for you to interperate it however you want to it will probably have more meaning for you that way.

my idea is incomplete, i know. but such is trying to answer the big questions, questions that we are seemingly supposed to just tote around with on our backs for the rest of our lives. without having imagination as a stepping stone it is impossible to begin reaching out into the void of the unknown and maybe start to answer some of lifes more prominent queries.

You make some overreaching assumptions about the capabilities about our pathetic water-filled protein sacs, but basically you have the right of it.

 

[Max Goldfine]

you actually nailed it.

just the ramblings of chemically indused, sleep deprived, dangerouse thinking

Edit: dang forgot to add the quote. its three or four posts up from here. the one about bong rips. if your reading this, i quote you.

 

[rabidmidget]

The premise about us being the universe is fine, but your sudden jump to the conclusion that this therefore makes us the creators is a complete non-sequitur.

 

[Gruevy]

I came up with the same idea several years ago, except I was more focused on "I'm a fucking God and if I kill myself, you all die" part. FYI It's called solipsism.

Your meat is rubbing up against your other meat, and the electrical discharge is causing some of your other meat to convulse and bump into a pre-arranged electrical grid.

Hmm.

No.

By your theory the cake is a baker and the toilet is a plumber. Simply being self aware of the fact we are made up of star dust does not make us creators, simply more observant than the average cucumber. If you made a cake and then it told you it baked itself, wouldn't you think that to be absurd (after you got used to the idea of a talking cake of course).

And of course, only knowing your own mind is solipsism. The idea that we are made up of star dust doesn't even factor in this case, because even that star dust is a fabrication of our mind. Including the delicious talking cake that came out of the oven. Essentially, the cake is a lie.

You could also argue that making something out of nothing is basically what God should be doing, and what we might consider is impossible is actually mundane for Him. He might have an entire bakery filled with talking cakes, all gossiping about what the crumpet did to the scone last night.

And now I really want some cake.

eh, solipsism isnt exactly what i'm going for.

I acknowledge that other people and the world around me has an idependent existance, and that everything isn't just a projection of myself.

I guess what i'm saying is that everything is connected. so much so that perhaps we are all the same entity.

Ah. Well, I've been doing something similar to that as well.

Lately, I've been pondering the notion that it's completely possible to believe that God is a giant superorganism which, much like peak human athletes completely understand the ways of their bodies, as does this God. Omnipotence is not merely the ability to do everything and anything, but to possess a great amount of physical strength that is incomprehensible to the normal human. Omniscience is then the complete awareness of the body and omnibenevolence is acting in such a way that is beneficial towards this body as a whole. Death, destruction, and things we deem malignant are then cases of matter shifting around within the body of God. For example, If I flex my arms and stretch my legs, I will have "destroyed" the static forms within my body and shifted myself into another form that will presumably benefit the course of action I wish to take.

I'm not sure how original the idea is, but I'm kind of proud for thinking of it. I'm still implementing free will into it, but don't help me!

I felt compelled to add this.

Skip to 2:28 & 3:09 - but in a way the whole thing fits.
