Copernicus vs. Sartre
I'm very tired right now and I forgot to eat dinner and I feel like shit because I've become a flake. I don't want to be a flake so I want to run away from everyone that I am being flaky to. That does not makes sense so instead of thinking about it anymore I've decided to right some babble regarding the sun and what I've been thinking about it. So here I go:
First off, I find most of talk about Genesis I've heard to be backwards. Everyone realizes the problems with a time before everything where something that can't exist when nothing exists creates all that exists. I'm not going to say that this is wrong, ignorant, whatever, but I find it makes infinetly more sense that everything was always here, that creation resembles whatever physisist's(newton maybe?) realization that nothing can be created from nothing, but rather something is always created from something else. Suppose you believe this, then the creation story becomes only possible through our own perception. So God does not create the world in Genesis, but only creates us, showing us bit by bit himself.
So in our head God has created the God we worship, the image we think of when we pray, and as the shittily translated first book of the Bible says, he created us in his image. The God we worship is incomplete because our senses are incomplete. We can only see what is in front of our face, we can only experience this moment in an infinite time, we can only feel what emotion we feel. Because of this the world can be imagined as a reflector for our own light, which reflects back upon us as warmth, as we send our actions out into the world and the world reacts. But this philosophy can be linked to the majority of problems the world faces today, which proves itself incorrect through our inability to solve a problem simply by doing something about it. We all have been to history class and read about bla bla doing bla bla and then bla bla doing bla bla and then bla bla doing bla bla over and over and over again and yes we all know nothings ever gotten too much better in terms of overall happiness. So I say that our actions regarding our happiness are not what makes us happy and we are not the center of the universe.
Now I don't know where I'm going with all this. I'm confused, I need a job or I'm going to go fucking insane. i better finish those thank you notes too. I might also delete this later.
