‘Belief’ at the Core

I find that most beliefs eventually converge on the following:

1. Continuity – Either better and longer living in this life or to have a greater choice in the next life. Or, the continuation of life thru our children and children’s children with the hope of greater tools and gadgets at our disposal.
2. An increase in energy – We are heading to a life with less labour and more luxury.

Together, this total belief package = MORE SPACE to create. That is, Inner Inflation → Outer Expansion.

First, I inflate my unreality on the inside, which becomes my desired reality. Next, I apply this force and realise the potential by reshaping my environment using my behaviour. (Or I’ll go insane trying to!).

When it comes to understanding a Sci-Tech God or non-religious belief perspectives in particular, we’ll get something along the lines of:

I invest in the idea of one great life and seek out maximum energy and life extension, which equals…

SUPERCHARGED SPACE (Super Inflation → Super Expansion)

Or greater pleasures and comforts that take greater resources and leave a heavier footprint because ‘super’ implies ‘shortcuts’. Thus, the bubble or nest is at risk of becoming unsustainable because nature will ultimately burst or break it.

Food for thought:

Continuity in another life usually relates to Religion and Spirituality. While max energy & life extension in one life (along with potentially living through our children) usually relates to Science and Technology as a god.

Heaven and Hell is not an afterlife. From my perspective, it is life. Life for me is up & down, then left, right & centre. Life for me is experiencing both reality (physicality) and unreality (ideas). If anything, the path to Heaven goes straight through Hell. Or at the very least, it causes a fair amount of hell along the way.
