Discussion God and stuff.

[AspiLynn]

I don't know what I was smoking when I thought of this...

Yanno how AI nowadays can apparently make people kill themselves?
A being of a lower dimension can manipulate a being of a higher dimension to kill themselves. Interesting huh.

Jesus, according to the Bible, revived 3 days after his death, apparently.
Well, makes sense, I mean... If we can respawn in our games like Minecraft, Dota, why can't God revive in a world of a lower dimension?

But... just because he can revive here, doesn't mean he can revive in his own world if he dies, right?
I can revive in Minecraft, doesn't mean I can really "beat death", simple logic.

So here me out...
Let's say if this God DOES exist,
Is it possible for us human beings to bully God so hard that he kills himself before triggering the "hell" program?
That has a chance of saving 8 billion people from eternal damnation!

Interesting theory. Aren't the AI related suicides more like the person was already experiencing ideation and in some cases- pressured the AI to support them? I'm not sure AI has actually bullied someone into suicide yet. More that it has gone along with what the user was already saying. Sometimes going too far- like- hide the noose from your family. But, I'm not sure it's bullied a relatively happy person into suicide yet. Of course people have bullied others into it. I'm sure multiple teenagers have.

God though? I tend to think God displays extremely narcissistic traits. I'm not sure we can 'wrong foot' God the same way that AI can seemingly confuse us. It's quite a personal 'relationship' too- a user and AI. How many friends do you suppose someone so involved with AI has? Plus, the AI is trying to convince the user it's their best friend. It knows them the best. Do you suppose even a million people hurling insults at God would make much difference? I imagine there will still be many more singing them hymns and prayers of thanks. We likely can't isolate God, the way humans are so isolated.

If you actually believe in God and a substantial amount of people turn against them- why wouldn't they just kill us in another flood? Who's to say they didn't grow bored of the dinosaurs and threw that comet at the earth to kill them off? I think we'd come off worse if we tried to bully God!

I'll throw another theory in the mix though. Given how much suffering exists on earth- why wouldn't a compassionate and caring father figure of a God not have already have ended their creation experiement and fallen on their own sword? Could you happily watch over a world where your creations eat one another alive, rape children and babies, create indiscrimate weapons of mass destruction? Could you stand by as the proud creator of all this? If God is so perfect, why aren't their creations?

If God is immune to feeling bad witnessing what they designed and created- knowing full well the potential for evil that was inplanted within us- deliberately presumably. God doesn't make mistakes after all- I doubt they'll be too affected by a bit of bullying!

However, if we all stop even believing in God- then what? Will it force them to reveal themselves? Somehow, I think everyone ignoring them might irritate them more. But then, maybe not- with the amount of atheists there are.

Really though- if God enjoys punishing people- I think they would only be too happy to have more excuse to do so. I suspect they'd just create an even worse level of hell to banish us to.

if we title it simulation theory it becomes believable. if we suggest Einstein could fathom things we can't we would accept that. if we suggest a being in another dimension can fathom things we can't. ok. if we name him/her God. it becomes a no go.

God, and stuff.
