What do you mean by words are equivalent?
They both refer to "everything". Or does the multiverse not include everything?
Ok you don't know what "topics" are. Hmm
I don't speak French either. Maybe I need a translator?

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. If the words are equivalent, then what difference does it make? What do you mean by words are equivalent? They both refer to "everythin...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

Usually, everything = multiverse. I see. What if I refer to everything as the "universe", am I wrong to call it that? Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. If the words...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

In multiverse topics, "universe" doesn't mean absolutely everything. Which part of this escapes your understanding? Then what do you call everything? Just "everything"? Usually, everything = multiverse. I see. What if I refer to everything as the "universe", am I wrong...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

Not considering hypothetical extensions to the world we see, is the end of philosophy, but of course idiots like this one don't even understand this much I'm sure you're not an idiot. You're probably very intelligent. You just need to get terminology straight. And it's not your fault. So don't be h...

You're probably right. I've had it with all the religions and pseudo religions. I'm more interested in what scientists have to say about the real world.

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

There's nothing wrong with the terminology, it's just not compatible with the old definition of universe. There is no "old" definition of "universe". The universe has been much the same since the beginning of human civilization. The "multiverse" theory isn't even incor...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

Why the hell would you agree with Age's point. In a multiverse topic, by definition the totality of all multiverses is not the universe. Because the "multiverse" is a bunch of nonsensical sophistry. It's a joke of a theory. It can't even get its terminology straight. There's nothing wrong...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

Religion does not make use of mathematics. The reason why is simple. If it did, most people would not understand it. I agree with Age's point that if there is a "multiverse" then the totality of all multiverses is, by definition, the universe. Even a dumb "hick" like me isn't as...

Re: Heaven and hell are not just "illusory"

The only ontology that requires true "insight", is the Platonic one. Like religion huh Religion does not make use of mathematics. The reason why is simple. If it did, most people would not understand it. I agree with Age's point that if there is a "multiverse" then the totality ...

Re: Faith: Difficult but Necessary?

Why "shouldn't" eternal peace exist? What's ever wrong with peace? Is there such a thing as too peaceful or not enough strife? Pretty much this: Becuz in perfect peaceful circumstances there can be no improvement... becuz there is no conflict, nothing struggling. Question is, is improveme...

Re: How Can We Achieve World Peace?

I think "How can world peace be achieved" is a better way of framing the question. It eliminates the "we/they" distinction and throws it back on the lap of each of us, I suppose. It also frames it as a "to do" list for cooperative effort, instead of some heroic conspira...
