This is by no means a fluffy concept or topic. This is my personal ideology on life and the universe. I do plan on expanding this into my own philosophy. What do you think?
About What I Believe:
We all reside in our own personal universe in one gigantic cosmos revolving around each other with no true moral truths for the entire cosmos but only moral truths for our own personal universe as we do not know, as humans, what truly is true.
Linked Together:
We are all connected in some way or another. Any event that could of been different in someone else's life would affect you in some way. It is like a chain reaction. You are connected to someone who is connected to someone and so on and so forth.
That concept even goes along with the possibility of timetraveling if it existed. If you changed the past, it will have dramatic effects for the future.
Our Own Universes:
This is a confusing thought for many people but take some time and think about it.
Most people wouldn't use the universe to describe one's self.
You are the center of your universe.
Everything in your life revolves around you. The part about us all being connected also falls with this. Anything that would happen would effect your life. This goes with any other person as well. Our universes (also known as our lives) revolve around each other which allows us to be connected. Having different universes is why we have different perspectives, logic, reasons, and understandings of different things but yet we can agree on certain things as well. No one views the same way as someone else. Also, if you weren't the center of your own universe then we wouldn't have chain reactions, we wouldn't be connected, and everything will always be the same with no other possibility. We do not view the universe or our lives the same way someone else. We may think of different situations that are the same; however, there is a gimmick. All those possibly same events happen in different time periods. Even the smallest. If you say it is possible then remember we all have different voices, looks, and personalities.
Moral Truths:
The cosmos (all of our personal universes together) holds no moral truth.
If the universe held moral truths then what we consider right or wrong could not be subjective. No questions asked. We wouldn't have vast religions and cultures that believe in different stuff and moral values. We will all be one culture. Moral truths are possibly like laws that people in that culture have to follow.
Humans are imperfect. How can we assume that there are moral "truths" if we do not "truly" know? Quote truths and truly. Sure, you can suggest written scriptures but even those could be fake and hold the views of only the person or the society/government whom has written such text.
Ex: ISIL. ISIL wants a country for its strict Islamic beliefs through what we consider terrorist attacks and what not. Sure, that is what they morally view as right even though we may morally view it as wrong. It is like different forms of government and the different laws countries abide by. Think of the king, royal subjects, and other people like the colonists. The colonists and other royal subjects did not think that the King was absolute compared to people who did. Even the loyalists thought it was morally wrong to break away from England were as the patriots thought otherwise. You can even go in with politics if you want to go deeper into different scenarios.
When people try to use love as an excuse for a moral truth then they are not standing behind truth and giving false information. Love is an instinct. We are all going to love something no matter what. We cannot help to what or whom we are attracted too. We just do. Love is love.
Love couldn't be a moral truth because it is also subjective. Is love truly good if someone loves someone just for their money, sex, or any other economic value? In my opinion, no. That right there is subjective. It is still love but nothing holding any moral truth.
Moral views also change over time. History will prove this.
Ex: Sacrifices. It use to be morally viewed as good to perform and do human sacrifices for a god or a goddess but now it is morally viewed as bad even in cultures that use to perform such deeds. You can also go into details about how governments are formed through the force theory, evolutionary theory. divine theory, and social contract theory to farther prove this.
Wow, that is a lot to read. However it is your belief and actually I keep learning something new every single day.
In a way we are all connected, that is a root in my religion although I won't impose it. But the thing is, this is my belief....I do believe we are the center of our universe, but in a way I don't. This may not make sense but to me the gods our the center and earth is the center of our universe, then it's the world and what we put in it, and how we use it, lastly it's us.
I'm ganna get a lot of disagreement with this, but what we do or say reflects on how we live, and who we are. We also do know many things, but we will never know everything. Yes it's true, we don't know anything compared to the universe but to ourselves we know lots. It doesn't matter the age we have done it, it doesn't matter what we don't know, the real truth is that we don't know everything and we never will but the things we do know is a lot because those things we've learned from is from our studying, and personal experiences.
Which brings me back to the ''were all connected part''
If were all connected, then answer this question. ''How are we the Center! Of our own universe?'' This is a weird question for you state that we are the center of our world, but were all connected also you say. So really who is the center here? I think it's everyone.
I would love to hear your comments back though, it overall was a good post.
If you read it you would know. The answer toyour question is in the first few paragraphs. Weall have our own personal universes that revolve around each other.
Yes, it is my personal ideology. That is your belief too and I am all good with it. I respect your belief. I do believewe may be the center of our own personal universes butif there is a god or goddess then they would be the center of ourselves orthe entire cosmoswhile we are the center ofour own universe.
I read the whole post, I thank you for respecting my belief. But I was stating that what if there was a god, considering how I believe in two or more. I'm not one who just asks questions in forums without reading them or reasoning.
