I would like eternal recurrence but with the exception that a person can make different choices so you are still yourself but can improve with each life attempt.
JP. Had a problem that people assumed everything is about climate change but based their models on some variables but not all of them. He attacked the fact of focusing on things which we dont fully know effect on in climate change and not on those we do. For example china and india are making 5x more emmissions than Europe. Yet Europe is pushing saving of the world but the amount wont change much unless for example we ban all technology from china and or transfer it to Europe. And im not giving it as a go to answer because it might not help. There are for sure just other more important global factors than a bottle screw.
There was a bit of a contradiction in viewing reincarnation positively because you get to change and experience new things with new friends and the viewing eternal heaven negatively because after billions of years you'd be a completely different person who might be hanging out with new people. The only real difference between eternal reincarnation and eternal "heaven" is that in heaven you'd still have a memory and recognition of yourself. Personally, if reincarnation exists with no memory of past lives, then it's no different than nothingness being what comes after death. If I become someone new with no memory of who I am now, then it's not really me after the reincarnation. It's someone else stealing whatever makes me me and using it for themselves without my consent. I'd prefer nothingness over reincarnation with no memory of my past life.
You got me laughing when you said you could end up in heaven with Mahatma Ghandi and mother Theresa since they were notoriously bad people. Not quite H-guy level but not heaven material either. Also, you wouldn't get bored if you lived forever since there would be constant innovation that you can participate in. You won't be stuck in the current iteration of the world, since everything changes.
One issue I have with some of these is how boredom is an inherintly mortal emotion that is presumably caused by the need to experience things in a finite time period as well as the need to constantly work towards survival. If not solved by simply being immortal, looking at the technological issuse, boredom should be something that can be biologically removed. Similarily, it could be made that, despite remembering things, you'll never grow tired of the same experiences. This way, somebody could find happy contentment even in a void without stimulus.
My hope is that by the time I'm old and dying, some technology comes around that can somehow process my entire brain and allow me to replay my entire life if I want, creating an infinite loop. But if you don't like your life, or were killed or in some kind of accident, just slip off into the permanent darkness.
As a philosophy student this video gave me brain damage, people really need to read Aristoteles before making claims like "closed individualism kinda sucks bro I think I'm not the same person that my mother gave birth to".
The only thing is the simulation theory would be an example of a life, not an afterlife. Any one of the other afterlives could happen at the end of your character. You're simply deleted (nothing), your character starts a new simulation (reincarnation, infinite loop), you're taken to the credits page where you watch a video about the game designer for eternity (heaven, hell), for some reason your character isn't fully deleted & you roam around the game not able to interact with any other characters (ghost), or you awaken to find out you're the designer (one with all)
The wild thing about the trial of Socrates that you didnt mention, is that he actually DIDN'T try to argue his case whatsoever, even though he had a level of rhetoric that could have easily gitten him found innocent, he decided to stand his guns.
Out of lust and the immense ejaculated pleasure I was born and so condemned to live and die. Because of this I'm fucked Out of lust I seeded her egg in a moment of ecstasy . Out of lust another child is born, a life I solely condemn to live and die and this new life will do the same I suppose out of mere lust and a bit of immense ejaculated pleasure. The driving force for this is ejaculation lust , payed for with life and death.
