I respect you Watchman on the Wall. That passage is to highlight a common bias of the ancient Romans. When a human sees themselves as "god almighty," then they can rationalize forcing any amount of servitude upon others "for your own good"! But as PKD said, "The empire never ended." https://letslearntogether.neocities.org/scispirit/Misc/PKD/experience

Where does "constitutional democracy" become corrupted? The only one I want to "represent" me is Christ, the perfect reflection of righteousness. For the only sign in which I shall conquer is in the Love of the Son of Man, every person from the unborn seed to the long forgotten.

Life is priceless. Pray for the Caesars to truly become Christs as you pay the tribute to the imperial cult and the "money spell" will be broken. (2 Timothy 3) More soon.

Carrion and Splatterhouse added. I regret to find out that one of my all-time favorites The Suffering is not available on anything.

Carrion (feeding off of flesh) and Splatterhouse (sounds like slaughterhouse)...but no Suffering? Interesting contradiction.

The Suffering was one of a kind. It was like 13 Ghosts in a way, but in a prison setting. It was one of the early games with different endings depending on choices, and it was the first to introduce a matrix for blood splatters as it passed through surfaces. Dr. Killjoy was such a great villain too.

Woah, thank you for the explanation...evocative...You know, I had once heard of some "near-death experiences" where people described "hell" as people stuck in Matrix-like pods with VR headsets that continuously broadcasted ever more elaborate forms of violence into them. I imagine that we get stuck within whatever we identify with most. "Different endings depending on choices," as you say.

Makes me think of The Eleusinian Mysteries and the various books about rituals for navigating the "underworld" (like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bardo_Thodol , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yv_MXNYbAo , or even Revelation 1:18 for that matter). What spirit acts as an "East Wind" that guides one through "The Battle of the Trench"? Much (Agapic) Love.

I'm not sure if you're meaning to imply something here. Lol. To me, fantasy violence is a fun outlet and distinguishable from real violence. Some like to argue that it's desensitizing, maybe to a psychotic mind that truly can't be helped in the first place. Exposure alone could never turn me into a serial killer just because I do it in video games.

I've always felt that heaven and hell are states of consciousness, existing within the ether of individuals. To me, Hell is a place where so much is false that navigation towards the truth is unobtainable. If we want to talk about eternal torment, that seems like a really petty concept that one would adapt to in the course of days, not really a punishment, more like transformation.

Matrix in this context is just a moving grid with some points turned on. It's basically the software version of spraying a surface with a water bottle, just specific terminology.

...I can very much identify with such a humanistic ethic (of "The Gold and Silver Rules" done for their own sake), but even a scientist has to first assume the existence of Truth in order to seek it out. A spark of insight that initiates the quest for knowledge that will lead to Truth?

I wonder though, does the continual simulation of violence release tension or cause it? And what of when the simulation itself is a "simulacra" (e.g.: an "Ender's Game" like situation, such as remote control drone strikes that murder innocents, done by someone unaware of the impact). It seems like a falsehood can be generated as cause is removed from effect.

Yeah, it's good to do what works right for you (I'm referring to the "2025-02-09 Eventual Change" entry). I've found myself paring down in recent months in terms of how much I try to do and link to as well, since being spread too thin can make both one's time and attention and one's pages' focus spread thin potentially. Trying to be all things to all people can dilute one's outcomes. Anyway, have a great day/night!

When does self-sacrifice become self-harm? A person can carelessly throw their life away if they pridefully think of themselves as a "hero", "savior", or "innovator" by doing so.

@psychicnewborn - It is noble to love your unborn children so much that you never have them in order to protect them from the evils of this world, but what will we do with our own lives? Even a belief in "nothing" is a belief in something. By turning away from one thing, we simultaneously turn towards another...like the perfection of virtue and life forevermore.

...remember Ephesians 6:12? Manipulations and fronts like missionary tourism, televangelism by millionaires, non-profit industrial complexes, military peace-faking, unequal treaties, and so on are spirits of the anti-Christ and of the synagogue of Satan. Neither "Christian", "Jew", nor people from any particular nation-state. The Mandate of Heaven says Matthew 7:22-24!

Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's. Good luck on the gnostic path. I have heard that the erosion of the Abrahamic God is the erosion of the foundation of Western morality and everything else stacked on top. Some are so eager to subvert and destroy the foundations... The most progressive is the first to turn back when we take a wrong turn.
