They wanted to talk a lot about good and evil.

I twisted their brain into a knot when I told them evil does not exist.

Imagine having to convince scientists that evil does not exist.

Bruh who are these people?

@Carl-Richard Bruh, you already know.

That sounds an interesting avenue to move into....

But good! Assessing existential morals and ethics as they apply to reality. But is that possibly seeking meaning, or how we ought to act? Looking for greater meaning can sometimes be missing the point... 

Time will reveal all when it is released 😁

Some of the answers would probably lead to Chernobyl levels of brain meltdown 

She wanted to punch me in the face to prove to me that evil exists. Lol

Science proved evil exists, you just didn't hear about it

This sounds like a juicy conversation 😃

Wuh- why are they confused about evil not existing? 

Moral anti-realism is such a basic concept, even if you don't agree with it. Maybe I'm too indoctrinated by the political YouTuber sphere, maybe millennial PhDs have lives.

@Natasha Tori Maru I'm psychic, ya know. The not betting on the Bryan-Kate relationship was just denial :,)

She told me that demons exist.

They are really open to unscientific stuff.

Suppose that's why they had me on.

I had to talk them down from demons and evil. Lol

They seem like they do some pharmacology let's put it that way. I like their music.

Sounds like 2000/2001 Porcupine Tree with a more indie edge 🤓

She told me about an evil grizzly bear. Lol

Imagine having to convince scientists into believing evil doesn't exist

Uhm.. wtf? isn't that the easiest thing in the world? how would people who deem all realities to be ultimately composed of dumb atoms and matter think that morality is real? thats mind blowing

[Natasha Tori Maru]

It sounds like Leo was pulled into another dimension of demon / angel thought-forms needing vanquishing 💀

Funny how it's always demons being fixated on, and not so much angels

Dude did you see Bryan's tweets about seducing Kate, touching her. Talking about her nipples n shit. 'Tesseract of love' 'opening her up'

I think it was deleted before it could become widespread. I got some sneaky screen shots. You know I love the gossip and troll mode (I am good girl on the forums though!). My giga-troll nature is undeniable. Terrible.

They are not strict materialists.

I don't know exactly what their ontology is.

They basically believe in atoms, but also higher level stuff that is outside the domain of science.

So they got this compartmentalized worldview where science studies hard stuff, but it cannot study non-hard higher order stuff like love or evil or demons or morality.

It's like science has its domain and religion has its domain, and they are both valid and incommensurable.

Yes, I was quite surprised having to argue against evil grizzly bears.

I did manage to slip in one of my classic "science is slop". 

And Shilo responded with something like, "I've never heard science called slop before."

And I was like:

I was called an angel exactly 15 days and 19 hours ago.

I saw something like that in a YouTube post. I knew the mushrooms would do some work on Bryan's brain nodules.

Thats really interesting how humans have more faith in either hard materialism or dualistic mysticism, and even a paradoxical combination of the two, than actually contemplating truth and consciousness. Maya hard at work I guess.

I don't know their channel but from what I hear from you I bet its conformist to the strand of Roganesque "mind freeing", "anti-government" line of content that's been popular since Covid. It's religious in a sense; they get a shared feeling of community mysticism by contemplating mystical stuff but still want to be a attached to consensus reality (materialism). 

It's cool that once you have done enough studying of religion and philosophy you see right through these currents of thought(and can identify their origins in other traditions) and their bullshit and that conformity and survival is at the heart of it.

It seems like humanity, even in the West, simply isn't ready for this idea yet. Many non-religious people will seemingly agree with you if you say that good and evil don't exist or are completely relative, but deep down they haven't actually accepted this truth. Several seemengly rational and scientifically minded people outright deny it as well. Sam Harris is a good example, isn't he? It's apparently too frightening and chaotic a thought.

This is how I discovered you, btw. I suddenly realized eight years ago that good and evil don't actually exist, searched "good and evil don't exist" on YouTube, and this was the first that came up:

I really miss the old Leo. I'm only in this forum because of him.
