A Conundrum

Nov 09, 2007 08:50

As some of you may know, I subscribe to a religion of my own devising, based largely on theoretical ideas about higher dimensions but loosely tied into Catholicism as well. Well, I haven't put a lot of research or work into my beliefs, it's more of a series of theories that I've concocted that "sound pretty good to me." I have, however, hit a snag.

Nice post brah. Finally, I read something on livejournal that is not about painting one's house.

So, simply put, the dilemma you brought up in the original post is the main, conscious, right now you may be punished for the actions of the other yous in Alternate Universe A, B, or C? I think that in the infinitely complex (all encompassing) universe you describe, there would be some kind of separation and some yous will be in a certain hell and some in a certain kind of heaven. And you will experience all of the yous fates. Not all at once, but since time is no longer an issue, you will not run out of it.

No, I don't like that. Just an infinite switching between the punishments / rewards of all the yous. Dude, now that I think about it, I don't have a very well formed concept about this at all. I share your belief that is the bulk of your post, about time, stepping out of it, and I think having that freedom from time and space and body would be a sort of heaven. But the question you pose at the end baffles me.

Haha this is not a very good reply, but you tickled my brain. Thanks.

Glad I could help ;)

I find myself constantly thinking about things like this, and I hope I can rope more people into some discussion, because these topics astound me.

What I'd like to know, is if there is a religion out there that actually talks about this sort of thing. I just haven't done the research to find out.
