Or a wormhole could open up just big enough to grab a bicycle from somewhere else

I can't remember who said this, but it was something along the lines of "there is no such thing as impossible, only highly improbable"

I'd, uh

4:56 PM

Wouldn't count on that.

Might have been Hitchiher's Guide tbh

Probably. But still - for irl occultism yeah don't count on wormholes appearing, it's not really gonna happen.

I know its "technically" possible for all the air molecules in a room to suddenly squish over to one side, right? It's just so unlikely to happen that it likely won't before the heat death of the universe?

I really don't get what you're getting at but yes, I suppose.

there aren't impossibilities with inductive logic, but there are with deductive logic; if you accept the law of identity, i~≡i is a contradiction in terms

This discussion is exactly what the metaphysical channel should be, glad to see it. Has anyone here ever read the Kybalion or the much older hermetic texts?

I agree, that was a great discussion; hope more of these to come'

its like how in theory all the molecules in a wall and all the moleculew can line up in such a way that the space between the moleculew would let you just phase through the wall, except realistically it would only last for .0000000001 seconds and you cant predict when

I haven't; what's it about n such'?

Hermeticism is an ancient occult religion, I am not a scholar or anything on it but what I do know is quite fascinating when paired with Tulpamancy.

9:25 PM

The main thing of note is that they believe the universe exists in the mind of God, so on a macrocosmic scale we are all thoughtforms/tulpas

I see'. I did heard about hermeticism being like occultist Christianity but don't know much besides it

9:29 PM

What's that book you mentioned, the Kybalion?

Its a recent tome that caused a Renaissance in hermeticism. It isn't all that accurate to the old scriptures but it has the essential essence mixed with semi modern philosophy. It was a major player in 20th century occultism

Ooh, I see. Sounds interesting.

Hermeticism wasn't a religion in and of itself, was it? I thought it was more of a philosophy. The Hermetic Order was open to all religions afaik

I'm not sure but it does have some ties into christianity iirc

It was sorta both, a religion that drew from other religions and was fine with other faiths

10:24 PM

a non dogmatic open religion basically.

This is a great video on the subject

What is Hermeticism?

Do we have any disciples of Aqua here?

shouldnt you post this on #lotpw instead, Aki?

shouldnt you post this on #lotpw instead, Aki?

No, it's a serious #metaphysics question

If there are people who worship fictional gods from ancient scriptures, there should be also people who worship fictional gods from anime.

something something bait something something

weebs are a thing.

Those people are called tulpamancers

and tulpamancers. Some tulpamancers worship god-ponies of love, some worship regular christian god(s) and some worship their DIY fictional saints reincarnated inside robotic bodies.

jokes aside - waifuism is not a religion

In all seriousness, I wouldn't be surprised if there are people who genuinely celebrate goddesses from animes. I don't know if there are enough to form a church group, but- On second thought how many religions from animes would even encourage a church group? Otherwise, I know a soulbond who is seriously devoted to her goddess, which is based on Skyrim iirc. I wouldn't be surprised if other soulbonds had other strong devotions to gods/goddess from their fiction

I'm sure the useless goddess would like to be worshipped.

Whats the point of worshipping a useless goddess?

11:15 AM

she cannot neither hurt you or gift you anything

11:16 AM

afaik people worship gods either out of fear or simply wanting something

11:16 AM

you pray to JHWH to not get eternally damned

11:17 AM

you pray to Dionisos (Bachus) to have lots of grapes and good wine next year

11:18 AM

you offer your disabled son's life to Quetzacoatl because you fear of him

Is that an alternate name for the Christian God or is killing your son because fear/faith/whatever a common thing for Gods?

ABRAHAM AND ISAAC?

11:21 AM

they had such a problem

Disabled son... I don't remember if Job's son was disabled. That would put a whole new dimension of horrifying if there's a version where that was the case

he wasnt afaik

11:24 AM

the "disabled" part was about the mud-American gods

11:24 AM

cuz Aztecs, Mayans and Incas are KNOWN of their religious cruelty

You jest but I garentee you a chaos magician has done this and gotten results out of it somewhere on this planet

Felicja

Dunno, probably hoping to have sex with her.

@Deleted User - jump how many folks have railed her already?

So, turns out when chaos magick says "all religions are based on faith n such and aren't real until someone believes in them" it creates a uh loophole

11:53 AM

Where if you know that rule and a bunch of other people also know it

11:53 AM

You can just make your own religion

11:54 AM

Hilarity ensues with the weebs. You will get laughed out of most rooms but hey, you can do it. ~~Just don't come near me or tell people that I told you that.~~

Felicja

you offer your disabled son's life to Quetzacoatl because you fear of him

I didn't know she required such sacrifices

Daily reminder that my faithful disciples will get 72 dragon virgins in paradise.

paradise is eternal (edited)

12:26 PM

72 dragon virgins isn't enough

12:26 PM

you need like,an infinite amount of them

12:27 PM

but...WHAT WOULD I NEED 72 DRAGON VIRGINS FOR?

I would hire them to write some new jokes for ysera

good idea

agreed

12:29 PM

tho i would rather to send them to earth in search of MORE joke-writers for both Ysera and Gosia since 72 of them might be not enough (edited)

12:29 PM

...wait

12:29 PM

@gosia are you one of these 72 dragons?

Spook

I would hire them to write some new jokes for ysera

I'd volunteer to write them some new jokes. Even 'knock knock' jokes would be better. But I'm well aware they just won't take it.

Why did Mon cross the road? (edited)

Dunno, but it has something to do with god or dragons.

To tell people on the other side that he's an atheist

I would hire them to write some new jokes for ysera

@Spook - jump It's not a joke, it's a real deal.

@gosia are you one of these 72 dragons?

@Skoda - jump No, Jesus is my only owner.

Welp #metaphysics was fun while it lasted see y'all later when it gets better again

Spook

Why did Mon cross the road? (edited)

Mon?

12:52 PM

but

12:52 PM

is Mon himself also doing these "jokes"? (edited)

12:53 PM

i thought that they're just Gosia and Ysera's "quirks" or something

12:53 PM

not the entire system's

We all are the same person eventually.

sigh tulpamancy's a fucking rollercoaster,you know?

Skoda

sigh tulpamancy's a fucking rollercoaster,you know?

It truly is

Fazzie

It truly is

just like life is

12:54 PM

is Tulpamancy secretly a hot-seat couch multiplayer mod for "life"?

12:54 PM

where you use the same PC and the same hardware

Y'know

and the same time

That's not a bad way of describing it

and same account

But as you can see, Gosia and Ysera are attached to their roleplay.

to play as two folks at once!
