Hey, /fringe/, I just wanted to swing by to link you guys to the first part in my multi-part series of essays about the Devil, which is long enough it would be a pain in the ass to post here directly. I'm going to be updating it every Friday starting next week and pretty soon I'm going to be getting into stuff about the devil in art and writing contracts with magical intent, so be sure to keep an eye out, though I'll definitely post it here again. https://delilahmywoman.com/2016/07/19/the-alchemical-devilry-series-part-i-the-temptation-of-christ-the-black-trinity-and-the-choice-before-the-children-of-god/

So embraced it , and becoming the ultimate lover, is what is needed to aniquilate my ego? , I been dealing whit this amoung of nihilistic toughs and being able to wipe them out , literally change my programming by the sheer streng of meditation , it makes me wonder how much is me inside, changing reality, changing your personality, your body , fuck even if you want feel nihilistic or happy ,stop or go .

If I am a ego I am a program who learned to program and reprogram again and again himself.

I been avoiding to do dream work becose the change of personality was a little to far for me ,but seems to be unavoidable, nothing is permanent , whatever idea of what you think you belive are wrong with this product is your responsibility,

so we are just product of chance?

well here's is the key for you to change yourself as you please so stop complaining.

He'll I just realised I can even stop the part of my brain who vocalise this doubts , I guees I don't want to turn it off completely, just make slower and lees invasive ,

but then it makes you ask how much this will change me again?

Its funny how synchronicity works. I've been doing this myself, and wondering if its the right thing to do or not. If everything is a part of God, then the Devil must also have a role to play, many actually.

And if God is (not only) love, then also loving the devil sounds like the right thing to do.

But is it wrong to keep a picture of the devil in your facebook page for example? While doing light work? Will it corrupt the meaning of the light work, or will it give it even deeper meanings and more insight?

I just want to make it clear to people that Im a righteous person, and Im a heart and I love, but sometimes things get interpreted the wrong way.

More foundational stuff is covered in the second essay, and the third will also be fairly foundational but move into more practical applications. It is, however, of the utmost importance that one working with this archetype, or any, have a strong understanding of its nature and potential.

I enjoyed this as well as your David Bowie article but is it possible you are reading too much into Bowie?

If he meant those things then he definitely went up even more


 No.84232

>>84230

Oh, it is entirely possible, but what Bowie 'meant' is immaterial with respect to what was actually said. It is important to keep in mind Bowie was deeply inundated by occult topics and allegedly tried to summon the devil at one point, or some such, also showing a demonstrated interest in Kabbalah, Crowley and so forth. He was also incredibly high on cocaine, deprived of nutrition and thus in a pretty receptive state, spiritual, especially when considering his shifting ego. Now, all that considered–it is entirely possible he did not understand or intend the depths of what he wrote, but if one accepts the presence of a universal unconsience, a unifying field, God or Tao or whatever, then one eventually comes to accept that all work is truly created by this consciousness, which is, it appears, perpetually encoding and sending messages to wake itself up and work towards a higher goal; whether the person doing the encoding is conscious of the meaning is not so important as the meaning itself, but if they are conscious of the meaning their work and Self will be far more powerful. So essentially–yes it is possible I am reading too deeply into David, but no it is not possible that I am reading too deeply into God, for no one may even begin to probe the true depths of meaning yet; we may only grasp ever closer. Tomorrow's essay is about The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon, and I deal a little more with the concept of the intent of the creator having minimal impact on the meaning transmitted by the unconscious, so I will be sure to post it here so you can read it. Glad you have been enjoying the essays; were you the one reading the book on the Kindle Library?

Bowie was very deeply intrested in the occult and knew his shit, its not like pop stars today who just use it for shock or artistic reasons.

During the thin white duke era he legit went insane and would save his hair and urine so witched couldnt get them.

All of his music comes off as shallow pop music but its littered with occult imagery, symbols and words that normies ignore because of the catchy tunes.

Here is a good page if you have time to waste that goes in depth about his entire career from an occult perspective

http://www.parareligion.ch/bowie.htm

Listen to his song quicksand, Crowley, bardo, dream reality, knowledge comes with deaths release

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP2SS8ggLtU

I'm closer to the Golden Dawn

Immersed in Crowley's uniform

Of imagery

I'm living in a silent film

Portraying Himmler's sacred realm

Of dream reality

I'm frightened by the total goal

Drawing to the ragged hole

And I ain't got the power anymore

No, I ain't got the power anymore

I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes

Living proof of Churchill's lies

I'm destiny

I'm torn between the light and dark

Where others see their targets

Divine symmetry

Should I kiss the viper's fang

Or herald loud the death of Man?

I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought

And I ain't got the power anymore

[Chorus:]

Don't believe in yourself

Don't deceive with belief

Knowledge comes with death's release

I'm not a prophet or a stone age man

Just a mortal with potential of a superman

I'm living on

I'm tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien

Can't take my eyes from the great salvation

Of bullshit faith

If I don't explain what you ought to know

You can tell me all about it on the next bardo

I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought

And I ain't got the power anymore

That was quite beautiful. I knew Bowie was an occultist based on his Thin White Duke stuff but hadn't heard this before. It's way more on the nose than anything I've heard from him before what with him actually namedropping Crowley and the Golden Dawn.

I think I'll start exploring his work in more depth from now on.

Crazy synchronicity with this. The other day I was heading to the beach with friends, and one shaman type I had just met that type. Pretty sure I talked to Lucifer through him. A boat had washed up on the shore at the beach and we watched the sunset. Tested my ego like crazy to see if I'd let it win over my awareness. Almost lost my life twice too. I can post the whole story later, Im gonna read your post first and then get back to this thread.

yeah, i think he even said in an interview once that he himself always wondered why no one ever said anything about his occult stuff, sometimes he was really blatent about it, station to station is pretty much about the kabllhistc tree of life.

There is also that line "making sure white stays", really plays into the whole mystical neo nazi character.

The return of the Thin White Duke

Throwing darts in lovers' eyes

Here are we, one magical moment, such is the stuff

From where dreams are woven

Bending sound, dredging the ocean, lost in my circle

Here am I, flashing no color

Tall in this room overlooking the ocean

Here are we, one magical movement from Kether to Malkuth

There are you, you drive like a demon from station to station

I noticed some people have been poking around in this thread so I'll post the new essay here this week. Today's entry is about Haruki Murakami and the hermetic applications of 'as above, so below' in his novel HARD-BOILED WONDERLAND AND THE END OF THE WORLD, which is a very important novel for magicians to read in order to begin to, on some level, appreciate in an experiential way what is meant by concepts such as the unconscious and eternity.

Hello, /fringe/. Do you guys like animu? I have to admit I do, some of it, at least, and find a lot of the better ones to be absolute wealths of occult symbolism and knowledge. That's why this week's essay is the first part of a two-part series about Rayearth OVA and Puella Magi Madoka Magica, specifically regarding their themes of contracts with the unconscious, broken down for the inquiring magician. Also, if any of you are willing to brave a movie theater, I cannot recommend the new film 'ARRIVAL' enough. It is a superb exploration into the nontemporal nature of reality and the manner in which our perception of reality is guided by language.

Sort of hard to say. I think the important think is coming to one's own individual path, rather than saying 'this' is the way or 'that' is the way. The first recognition you must come to is that all paths are valid but subject to misinterpretation, and some paths are less subject to misinterpretation. With this in mind, thinking of things in terms of 'chaos magic' is not a bad idea, but I prefer the term Quantum Magic because you are essentially using the right half of your brain to interpret the symbols of existing texts (religious practice) and/or the symbols you consciously create (magic). The two are not mutually exclusive and often linked, but the more one knows and understands about the spiritual experience, the more 'magical' it actually becomes, despite being capable of logical explanation.

The reason why I avoid answering questions like >>96395 directly is that all consciousness–at any rate, a theoretical, entirely 'pure' consciousness devoid of connection to a body and purely existing to be an observational light–is inherently masculine, since such an entity would need be pure and logical in order to be objective. The minute consciousness begins having a bodily experience in matter ('matter' having the same root as 'mother', 'matron', 'maternal', 'matrix', German 'mutter', etc.), it is having an experience which is to some degree feminine, because it is emotional, being that emotions are by and large products of internal chemistry of the body. This is not the only way to explain or interpret the inherent hermaphrodidity of the human experience, but it is the one which is the most 'streamlined' that I have found. One first must divide one's psyche from one's matter, and then within one's psyche divide one's consciousness from one's ego, and awaken that consciousness by logical appeals. I have written a novel which deals with the subject, THE LIGHTNING STENOGRAPHY DEVICE, and am currently trying to find an agent, but it is very esoteric and as a result, my genius, which has promised me an agent by year's end, has lead me to write two plays and begin another novel which I am hoping to finish over the next few months: this latter novel will most certainly merit an agent because of its appeals to certain demographics, but it is THE LIGHTNING STENOGRAPHY DEVICE which I am interested in publishing, because it is, I feel, spiritually significant to me and can be so to others. The Spirit Mercurius character describes it in context probably better than I can here, but the long and short of it is that the functions we think of as 'right brain' activities are a kind of connection to the unconscious, and can be manipulated by the symbols found in religion, art, even sports and commercials. In the Hannibal articles I go into projection a lot and what I mean by that is that this magical experience can be projected onto literally any symbol set which mankind could devise–I think in the Chaos Magic starter book I read the example used was The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Magic is a decision, and the embrace of change. I think that reading a lot of guides about how to 'do magic' specifically will bog you down and confuse the issue, because you're not looking to 'do magic'. You're looking to BECOME A MAGICIAN. You're looking to LIVE A MAGICAL LIFE. You don't want to have one magical success and call it good, or to prove anything, and if you do, then you won't. You have to want wisdom, and have to want to be a magician for your own sake rather than for profit or for being 'right'. When you drop the idea of being right, you relax your eyes as though you're looking at a magic eye puzzle, and then, Ah, here we are, it's a perfect ray of light running through the center of everything. When you realize that free will simultaneously does and does not exist, and when you experience on an emotional level the paradoxical nature of being, that is when you know you have begun to hit something.

I do not know if I have it sorted out, but I have seen other people sorted out, and the Universe sorts itself out for anyone who is really willing to sit down, to take the time and listen to themselves and their imagination. You need to spend a lot of time with your imagination, and a lot of time reading. I have a particular booklist which I would recommend here and which grows depending on the direction in which one wishes to go, but essentially one's studies of the psyche and of the manipulation of magical symbols could take any form. You are giving yourself a skeleton key and centering yourself so that you, in the eye of the storm, are able to keep yourself from becoming emotionally invested in, say, religion or politics.

For my money, the clearest and most concise route to understanding and receiving that skeleton key is the works of Jung, and I would advise you skip right to his collected works:

9.1 The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious

9.2 Aion

14 Mysterium Coniunctionis (A++++ MUST READ for ALL Magicians but I also strongly recommend reading at least 9.1 first)

13 Alchemical Studies (Though it is lighter than MC, MC is what you need to read to 'break you open' to appreciate and internalize an emotional understanding of what is discussed in 13)

On Synchronicity

The Spirit and Evil in Fairy Tales (by his student, Marie-Louise von Franz)

The Dictionary of Symbols (published by Taschen, the price of a textbook and worth every penny for a Magician)

(2/Several)

>>96568

Although pure consciousness is masculine, an emotional understanding is important because there is a difference between knowing something intellectually and experiencing it physically or psychologically. For my money, Jung is the best for this. Bonus points if you take LSD at some point while exploring his work and think during your trip about the idea of consciousness as separate from ego.

Once you're centered and have a grasp of the symbol set, you can use it for anything: it depends on your personal style of magic. Like an artist, you have to pick a medium. So, what are you? A classical, sigil occultist? A writing magician, like me, or Alan Moore? A musician, maybe, like Amataresu-Anon floating around on this board? Maybe you want to do voodoo stuff, or bury jars full of ritual items in the middle of the desert like Mexican brujas. All of this is valid magic and all of this appeals to the same set of symbols to do work on a sub-conscious level. Some forms of magic are more public and/or powerful than others. Grant Morrison coined the term 'hypersigil', but back in my day those were just called 'artworks'.

I'll give you an example of a symbol that's been on my mind much recently after doing the Hannibal essays. Say you go through all of these Jung books, and the symbol of antlers and deer becomes significant to you. What can you do? Well, if you're

1. A Conventional Occultist makes an altar out of antlers, or uses them to encircle his sigil.

2. The Author Occultist encounters the symbol of a deer in a story and follows it or manipulates it to achieve a desired result in their own psyche.

3. The Savage Occultist projects negative internal energies or desires out into a deer and hunts it

4. The Serial Killer mounts human bodies on deer antlers

5. The Director Magician incorporates deer imagery into his film

6. The Musical Occultist creates a piece of music designed to evoke the spirit or vibrations of a deer

etc.

The possibilities are truly limitless. It really comes down to an awareness of the functioning of your own brain and the incorporation of symbols into your life to help to inspire and access parts of yourself otherwise hidden. Examples are truly all around you. Paranoid schizophrenics who think everyone and everything is talking to them are right, they're just misinterpreting it.

Other works I would recommend are Shakespeare (especially The Tempest), Penguin's recent Writings From Ancient Egypt, and all versions of Faust with particular emphasis on Goethe and Marlowe. The more you read the more references you will uncover to other wealths of occult works to read, you need only pay attention to the synchronicities which will begin to surround you and direct your taste.

As far as homunculi/genii/tulpae, etc., those and all other visualizations of psychic and spiritual experiences can be useful tools as much as they can turn their users into useless toolbags. Remember that if you awaken the pure light of consciousness within yourself despite living alone in your room with a cheetoh-covered Hatsune Miku hug pillow, the pure light of consciousness might ride you right out of your fucking life and into a new one if it finds you've truly cornered yourself. That's not always a bad thing, but it's definitely not always a good thing, either, because what do you think is responsible for all your 'mistakes' and 'missteps' in life? The unconscious. Why do we most often stumble on the sidewalk? Because we became unconscious. On becoming conscious we owe it to ourselves and to consciousness to become the best version of ourselves possible, and consciousness is a lot less afraid of starting afresh than you are, so be careful.

You may also feel internally encouraged to do things which you never thought yourself capable of doing, or which may seem out of character: but you will also understand why you have to do them, and you will choose to do them. In the end, you have to ask yourself what it takes to get yourself where you want to be, and whether or not you want to make the decision to change, because it sounds annoying, but it's true: it's just a choice.

 No.96627

>>96619

I am heavily influenced by male authors, archetypes and social concerns, though I admit I am heavily influenced by all social issues, more or less. I also personally struggle to get into more stereotypically 'female' authors, the exceptions being Shirley Jackson and Japan's CLAMP team because they write over magic into their works. I also admit however that I have not read sufficiently from many female authors, but I feel towards female authors the way I do towards the greater part of most contemporary fiction. The emphasis is taken from the human concern and into some obscure social niche. The reason why the white, heterosexual male is the quote un quote social standard is that the white, heterosexual male is projectable, is an archetype inhabitable by all, and in and of itself is a symbol of the pursuit of masculine consciousness/light seeking to bond with feminine matter/existence. Because all conscious beings can understand this pursuit, in the end, it doesn't really matter that Camus' Meursault in THE STRANGER is a white man who shoots an arab when the sun gets in his eyes: it is a story in which race is incidental, a subtle and unconscious symbol of a conscious man confronting and integrating his shadow without realizing or understanding what has happened because he lacks the context and emotional experience to take him beyond his atheism and into psychological transhumanism. This is something with which most people can relate because Christianity and Western shame is so powerful in the human mind that even atheists feel their only choice is that God does and does not exist: seldom does it seem to occur to them that they themselves are the seed of God, not in a truly profound and internalized way. The Church of Satan, for instance, wants to get there but because they deny the ecstatic spiritual element and make theirs a wholly secular 'Church', they cannot widely provide their parishioners with the full and ecstatic experience of consciousness. Most human beings require both a logical and an emotional understanding of the thing to experience the phenomenon perceived as 'Satori': this is the reason why Zen masters use koans, this is the reason why working out the logical half of the problem under the influence of LSD will trigger an emotional understanding which will stay with you after the trip, if you experience the Clear Light truly. This is not a 'feel good for six months to a year' and then fade out sort of feeling: it is the foundation upon which your understanding will build a psychic temple to house the light of consciousness. However, if you approach the problem only from the external, logical standpoint of "God is external to me or He does not exist", then of course you're going to come to the conclusion of being an atheist, and that is why so many magicians who have made the jump into magic come from a background of early faith > skeptical atheism > magic > intense faith. Someone like Meursault can never be a magician because they have too many daddy issues they are unwilling to resolve (for all his lukewarm emphasis on his mother, whose death signifies a death of material meaning, Meursault's dealings with his father are all projected onto the social image of God the Father) and in fact when consciousness (sunlight) is shed on the issue, represented by Meursault, himself, the reaction is more or less immediate suicide, because of course the instant a murderer kills he has made the choice to kill himself. So you see? I do not even know why I picked THE STRANGER, I have not read Camus in at least five years, but yet I am able to recall these details and project very easily upon the white mail the struggle of consciousness: doing this sort of exercise both helps to keep the enlightened mind awake, and also helps ourselves and others to learn.

I have gone off on a tangent, and apologize. I am enthusiastic about the subject of magic and cannot talk freely about it in my real life, so when I get the chance on the Internet, I tend to ramble. I think being raised by a single father also contributed to a masculine writing style, and my literary and magical work has emphasized it.

Yes, absolutely! I love that anecdote, and the similarity of Jung's position to the one R. D. Laing would later take. The idea that the mystic and the schizophrenic find themselves in the same ocean to varying degrees of success and terror is most fascinating, and even moreso when one considers the Stanford study indicating the voices experienced by schizophrenics can be positive, depending on their local culture. http://news.stanford.edu/2014/07/16/voices-culture-luhrmann-071614/

As a white mail, a coat of armor if you will, it's my understanding that I am a ritual sacrifice for others. My throat is cut and blood spilt for the strange witch psychology of victim bipolar schizo mentality individuals and groups who wish to either make me a victim (thus the need to be a coat of mail) via physical violence, mind games claiming I'm a dude with daddy issues who projects all his issues into every one of his actions and creative acts (classic esteem attack right there), and use pseudo empathetic bullshit to really fuck with the heart and mind and esteem of a coat of white mail such as myself because there really is no sense of ethic or morality in this world. Kind of disgusting when you think about how people are sadistic enough to make an effigy out of a class of people.

I'm not a fucking metaphor you piece of shit, people's psychology aren't transparent to your enlightened God consciousness.

I could raise a fucking mountain from the Earth and I'll still consider myself atheist. I've believed in God for a couple years, all out, talking to my soul and my soul to God, couldn't be atheist if I tried during that time, and it was the most retarded, terrible, disturbing and delusional experiences of my life. Absolutely retarded. Hyper sensitive, over emotional, irrational and projective. Everything you claim a white mail atheist is, projecting their emotional problems, delusional, dishonesty with oneself, is all I got from the entire experience. Which leaves me to believe that those who believe in a subjective and objective connection to God, being seeds of God, being part of God, whatever, are the most hypocritical (oh sorry I mean DIVINE PARADOXICAL) and fucked up of all. Honestly I recall thinking the same BEFORE these experiences. I TRIED God because I needed to know if I was missing something, so I EXPERIMENTED WITH MY CONSCIOUSNESS. HINT: IT FUCKING BOMBED. EVEN WHEN I WAS HAVING INTENSE SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES, IT WAS ALL SO FUCKING EMPTY BECAUSE IT WAS ALL FUCKING LIES. LINGERING BEFORE AND AFTER A PEAK, EVEN A SUSTAINED PEAK, IT WAS EMPTY. It is a waking trance of self-hypnosis and auto-suggestion. That's fucking it.

Seeing literally only what you want to see (faith) is the most fucking ridiculous shit in the world. That's literally what it is, only perceiving what you believe you should be seeing. Only hearing what you believe in. Feeling only what you believe in. There is no reality whatsoever for you fuckers. Objectivity is about being less biased and delusional about shit, that's the functional definition of it. Subjectivity is defined as being personal and bias. The exact fucking obvious opposite.

This divine feminine divine masculine shit is even retarded. Divinity is fucking retarded because it has no fucking definition, no semantical description. It's somatic ambiguity that you can project anything you fucking want onto it. That's spirituality entirely, "feel good" bull shit. It's all about creating a somatic experience, nothing to do with fact, entirely subjective. The only logic you need for this bullshit is sensational. The logic of somata. The form of sensation. You can replace any fucking specific with another because none of the parts fucking matter, it's all form without essence. As long as the parts sort of look the same it works. Meaningless beyond sensualism. It's hedonistic, nothing more nothing less. Entirely aesthetic, in the world of appearances, and has nothing to do with the mechanisms of reality past the bare fucking minimum required to sustain your illusions.

TLDR; OP.

The devil is in no other place than that of the mind. Sit down and force yourself to not move and you will soon meet the devil by default.

>I, in a perfectly rational way, love the Devil.

said the devil

Surely the devil fulfills it purpose and you can love it, but claiming that you love the devil is the devil. I challenge you to be quiet for one week in your life. If you can't, you are the devil.

Wake up, you are dead. Reborn into life, baptized by the angels, find life.

With a mind full of delusions and assumptions, you are walking with the devil and he is showing you his world of madness. Do not prove the shills wrong by pointing them out, give them no food for thought and do what you are supposed to regardless of other's opinions. For can you tell a fedoratipper apart from a paid shill? Objectively you can't. But your mind believes it can. This is an illusion.

Interesting that you say that, "Objective morality" when referring to the do-good god vs devil belief structure.

Wouldn't death by objective and thus the morality you proclaim as objective, but the god vs devil, there is no death fucks be subjective? As in, they hate dying so they reject its existence then claim to exist forever (though true in some sense perhaps) thus remaining a subjective entity with ambiguous undefinable objectivity?

I think you have that backwards:

Subjective morality is a spook.

The devil is just the voice in the mind hidden inside ego. The voice will have the opinion that any harm done upon it is evil and bad thus it perceives enemies for such acts. Regardless if the ego of many join together to form a group/country so that they can circlejerk about a superior morality for the group and agree that anyone that fails to follow the laws of the group will be punished. Now you've only created another layer for the ego to manifest it's enemies in.

Another country will create similar laws but they will not identify as the original group. They make a law that states it is OK to kill the members of the other country and justifies it using the voice in the mind.

Subjective/objective morality is a spook. Those few individuals that are awakened will know in their heart that killing beings doesn't help so they will abstain out of unconditional love. Many see Jesus as some saint for being all-loving like the lord he serves, but once it states he pulled out a whip and flipped the tables of the merchants inside the temple. Not even Jesus could solve that non-violently.

Objective morality is only morality agreed upon by many, like accepted history is the history written by the victors of wars in the past, neglecting any alternative history of those that suffered for their country.

"Hah, your country's morality is shit, you allow killers to live."

"Hah, your country's morality is shit, you kill killers."

The sun shines, black holes suck, vacuum is nothing that is something. The sun will kill you like anyone else. Vacuum will kill you like anything else. Black holes will spaghetti your body like anything else. I don't hear people complaining about the sun being a mass murderer even though it dehydrates Africa for hundreds of years.

Only conscious beings that can communicate, can suggest morality based on their own perspective. A gun can't be negotiated into not shooting you, it's mechanical. The sun can't be negotiated into not dehydrating you and killing you. If you can't communicate your morality to the second being involved, you can be killed regardless of your idea of objective morality. A lion will eat you because you are the right size for them to eat, not because of your ideas.

Subjective morality exists only for an individual that can communicate preference of voluntary decay. Objective morality cannot be proven to exist just as the existence of God currently cannot be proven to exist. If there's a scoreboard of your performance in life that you get to see after you die, it is unknown to us here. You could say that the scoreboard is the objective morality, since everyone get scored after dying. But then in that reality where you are scored on a scoreboard, what is morality there? How many layers of reality can you transcend, asking the question: what is objective morality, until you reach the higher all of everything and realize that you are everyone you meet and all actions done unto others are done unto yourself?

Does God hate assassins or love doctors more than assassins? Generally, most people don't what God is. It's just an idea in their mind that confirms to their subjective morality. The idea that God will punish those who are evil, especially after dying, is just justification for slandering of who the individual believes are evil.

If you wish to explain objective morality, you may.

You guys serious? There is selfishness and selflessness. There's you're objective mechanism for the subjective phenomena that is morality. Is perception of morality inherently subjective? Obviously. But can it be objective? Definitely, though if you want explanation it would be quite different depending on the context of a specific example

It's not objectively true that applying selflessness to one's life goals is 'good' but it's so blatantly rational that it's better than having selfish life goals.

I mean there are so many reasons why being selfless is logical but I've never heard of a reason to be selfish outside of the incredibly weak and borderline illogical argument of hedonism. It only makes sense from a position of ignorance

You're talking about what I termed ethics. Selfishness isn't inherently antisocial, anyway. It is in our self interest to work with others, and not against them. Read Stirner and Nietzche, not Rand - she's fucking shit tier.

If you can't explain it yourself then I sure as fuck ain't gonna read anything I already know of just because you told me to. If you want feel free to refer to concepts that a philosopher like those engaged in.

What I said has nothing to do with society or culture or norms, and thus has nothing to do with ethics and everything to do with objective universal notions of how to categorize intentions. It's objectively true that all intentions are either one of these two categories of morality.

And if you knew how to read you would see that I specifically referred to life goals. I'm not sure about the your use of the word "antisocial" maybe look it up before you use it so fallaciously again but if someone has selfish life goals then they are detrimental to society. I'd wager this to be an objective fact and I dare anyone to try and prove me wrong. I'd also wager that your next response will continue to have fallacies but I hope I'm wrong, that'd be too easy and boring

I feel I used antisocial correctly, maybe you should look it up?Anyway, it isn't objective at all that everything is either selfish/selfless. Psychological egoism posits we do everything out of our own self interest. Since you have the Montalk flag I will remind you of the Cass quote he often references that STO "serves themself through others."

I never said that your fallacious use of the word invalidates your argument; you're accusation of my argument having a fallacy fallacy is a strawman argument. I clearly explained my invalidation of your attempt at an argument.

Antisocial means not wanting to be social, ie having friends. Yet we are talking about helping society. Someone who does not want to help society can still have many friends and someone who does want to help society can still be entirely antisocial inventing stuff or making applications/protocols in their basement.

So yeah, you really should look up the actual definition of the word antisocial. Try oxford if you don't know where to start :)

And again you failed to read. I am talking about a person's life goals. Obviously a selfish person will cooperate with another to get maximum benefit but this is just a single act and even then the intention is selfish. I repeat for the third post in a row here, that I am talking about life goals.

Please learn to read before using the internet friendo

The DSM-V changed the name of the somewhat amigious psychopathy/sociopathy to Antisocial Personality Disorder, so you could think of it as synonymous with sociopathic. The definition on google actually has both usages, heh. I guess it got the same treatment as "literally".

I feel like we're basically just playing word games. Anyway, you claimed objectivity, then say you're only talking about life goals, which can only be what I described ethics as: "subjective and fluid." As I said earlier, what you call morality, I call ethics.

You can't prove that killing anyone is against an objectively stated and agreed upon rule beyond human perception. Anyone can justify killing someone else and anyone can justify not being killed. It's a circular argument. Animals are sentient and they kill each other, thus humans may kill humans and animals because animals can do it and humans are animals.

You have to go way beyond morality to understand why you don't kill other beings. You don't not kill them because you can hurt their feelings. You avoid killing because it is the hard thing to do. It takes no difficulty to kill a spider. Try taking it in your hand and letting it outside.

I can't prevent you from killing it and I also cannot state that there's an unwritten law that prevents you from killing the spider. We can pretend there is. We can agree that it may exist. But we don't know and will not know while we are alive here.

Objective morality is a spook, for who is to say morality exists on a god level and who created the god that stated that the morality is correct? If you get too close to the sun it will burn you up. It doesn't care about your subjective idea of morality. We can observe that the sun emits high temperatures and thus assume getting closer to the sun means it becomes hotter. So we don't have to test the sun's temperature by dying.

I said morality is a subjective phenomena that has objective mechanisms.

I said this so many times since my first post. You are literally fucking retarded.

>the subjective phenomena that is morality. Is perception of morality inherently subjective? Obviously. But can it be objective? Definitely

Categorizing life goals is an objective process. How moronic can you be to not see what is in front of your stupid fucking face.

Being antisocial and having antisocial personality disorder are two different things. Fuck off until you learn English

Like I said try checking the Oxford instead of being a shitlord that won't shut the fuck up after being revealed to be wrong

Holy fuck kill yourself

> I am talking about a person's life goals. Obviously a selfish person will cooperate with another to get maximum benefit but this is just a single act and even then the intention is selfish.

A single act that is itself selfless, but has selfish intention. It's babby's first philosophy lesson that an action cannot be objectively determined for it's ethics or morals in anyways. I've been talking about intentions and life goals this whole time. Don't came back here until you've read a fucking book

I've proven the objective nature of morality time and time again in my last two posts. If you don't know how to fucking read that's not my problem.

The more you make me repeat myself the more I will ridicule you fuckwits

Of course what's actually happening here is that both of you are experiencing the kind of cognitive dissonance and other illogical defense mechanisms that happens when your beliefs are challenged this is basic psychology. Delusion on the surface and disbelief under the hood.

"How can something be subjective and objective at the same time?" is what your subconscious is asking but this so far hasn't been consciously acknowledged in disbelief, since if it was you'd see I already answered that question too.

>There is selfishness and selflessness. There's you're objective mechanism for the subjective phenomena that is morality.

Words that you arbtrarily define aren't objective.

Is perception of morality inherently subjective? Obviously. But can it be objective? Definitely, though if you want explanation it would be quite different depending on the context of a specific example

>It's not objectively true that applying selflessness to one's life goals is 'good' but it's so blatantly rational that it's better than having selfish life goals.

What if my life goals are to exploit you? What if my life goals are to rob as many people a possible? What if my life goals are to become a successful politician?

>I mean there are so many reasons why being selfless is logical but I've never heard of a reason to be selfish outside of the incredibly weak and borderline illogical argument of hedonism. It only makes sense from a position of ignorance

There are plenty of logical reasons to be selfish. See above, if my goal is to amass power or resources, I should act selfishly.

>>100418

>What I said has nothing to do with society or culture or norms,

The arbtirary concepts of selfish/selfless have everything to do with cultural norms.

and thus has nothing to do with ethics and everything to do with objective universal notions of how to categorize intentions. It's objectively true that all intentions are either one of these two categories of morality.

No it's not, and this claim is unfalsifiable. Your false dichotimy is anything but objective.

>And if you knew how to read you would see that I specifically referred to life goals.

You're a christcuck telling an atheist to prove the abrahamic God doesn't exist. Your claim can't be tested.

How are you even able to hold all that projection LOL oh right your complete incompetence in responding and greentexting reveals how incredibly unstable you are in your delusional arrogance and projections

>What if my life goals are to exploit you? What if my life goals are to rob as many people a possible? What if my life goals are to become a successful politician?

Those are mostly selfish goals then DUH

>There are plenty of logical reasons to be selfish. See above, if my goal is to amass power or resources, I should act selfishly.

You didn't give a reason for WHY thse goals are selfish. Exploring the why will show the complete lack of logic in these goals, except of course what I already explained. How moronic can you be that you couldn't even read the greetext qoutes you yourself posted

>>I've never heard of a reason to be selfish

>>the incredibly weak and borderline illogical argument of hedonism. It only makes sense from a position of ignorance

>The arbtirary concepts of selfish/selfless have everything to do with cultural norms.

No these are logically defined. Pick up a dictionary some time. Of course you can argue that definitions and the axioms of science are all "arbtirary concepts [that] have everything to do with cultural norms" but then you would just be laughably idiotic. Once again in you're own greentext you ignore this

>>everything to do with objective universal notions

If I am wrong then attempt to objectively invalidate what I say or provide a logical counterargument

>this claim is unfalsifiable. Your false dichotimy is anything but objective.

Then why are you arguing? If it is a false dichotomy, it is falsifiable. The whole point of logical philosophies is that they are unfalsifiable. Not all dichotomies are "false" for this reality would not exist without duality

>You're a christcuck telling an atheist to prove the abrahamic God doesn't exist. Your claim can't be tested.

Exactly. Atheists are retarded and they have no reason to live other than hedonism. This I can objectively prove and have. I argued with the entire /leftypol/ board once and in the end they had nothing to say after different angles of trying to refute what I said. You should go back there you heathen Also try not equating ALL people who aren't athiests into being a christcuck Everyone should at least be agnostic if they want to be objectively logical

And I was right, this was waay too easy and boring, Try again Good luck :")
