Coincidence

[GloryofGreece]

One of the convincing factors for me was this weird relationship between the Christian and the atheist. The atheist is very keen to somehow prove that his metric of living is superior to the Christian, whereas the Christian is neither impressed nor interested in proving anything of the sort to the atheist. In a related way of looking at it, Daralon once told me about an intellectual he read who once remarked that the atheist is so full of certainty whereas the Christians are still plagued by doubts.

I think if you have to prove to everybody your life was not only worth living but somehow better than everybody else's life, then it could be possible you are unhappy with it. Where the Christian seems to come out ahead is that they acknowledge, duh, of course you are going to be unhappy with this life no matter what you do.

The Greeks to their credit knew this through Tragedy quite clearly.

By your own words how is it any better to constantly quote Nietzsche? You don't read in the German or Latin do you?

You think that you can transcend good and evil. That is hubristic as well. If you really believe that then you are the enemy.

The envy, rensentment & perversity of Theists is no different than that of Marxists, and with the same level of sanctimony.

I was asking questions and you respond with projections. Just ignore me overman.

You cavort with "the enemy." That's on you.

"But truly, if I were not Alexander, I wish I were Diogenes." Diogenes replied "If I wasn't Diogenes, I would be wishing to be Diogenes too."

I highly recommend the Radio Lab episode called Stochasticity.
