  • I’m seeing a lot of songs here I actually enjoy, and wondering if I’ve stepped into the wrong comments section.

    That said, I do despise that “Anxiety” song that made the rounds on TikTok a while back. The remix (Read: The exact same track) of “Somebody That I Used To Know.” It’s a solid few seconds where you’re thinking you’re listening to a good song, then you get smacked in the face.








  • Because we apply human traits to God, and because being emotionless doesn’t necessarily indicate being higher than someone else.

    In most traditions, God is incomprehensible to humans. Polytheistic religions break God down into multiple Gods or Goddesses with different characteristics, which is how they explain all of the events assigned to God. Lightning happens because of Zeus, etc.

    For religions that don’t break God down into different aspects, it’s one of those things that kinda justifies itself. Bad things are happening so God is mad, if God is mad he has to have a good reason because he’s omnipotent. That’s where the faith part comes in.

    Abrahamic religions especially have a father/child or teacher/student dynamic between God and humans. A major negative of the Fall of Man was that we had separated ourselves from God and could no longer could wander the Garden of Eden.

    The implication is that God knows more than us, and to have faith that he acts for the good of humanity even if we don’t understand in our limited knowledge.

    We like to think God cares about us.
