Honestly, if it is, there will be no way of telling. So how do I know a thousand years actually passed by the time I post this question?

I look around and see people always stuck on having an explaination for everything, which turns out to be the most ironic thing ever, because they have little basis on their beliefs to prove it to be reality. Why should others believe what you do because your beliefs are the "only truth?" Maybe they are, maybe they're not. You have no proof either way because every "fact" is based on belief in some way.

not like questions that i have seen before. they are all baited. i mean just a single word that brings you to peace. something that strikes your ears and brain as just sounding like it's maybe the most beautiful word or name you have ever heard. something you might not just like to hear but also say.
for me it is the korean name "boh-rahm". the r is rolled, or it doesn't work.
what word or name is it for you?

There are multiple definitions of freewill but it is a paradox if it states we are accountable for what choice we make.

We are not. I can only learn from what is available to me and I cannot choose what is available to me. We have the ability to choose but only within a confined context. The fact that we do not choose the level of confinement means our ability to choose is left at the whim of the confinement, something we did not have control over to begin with thus accountability is a logical fallacy.

Even if God created us on the spot 6,000 years and people established law and order, the next generation would still lack the freewill to decide whether or not they learned from the system because they did not choose the confined context. A man cannot choose what he desires. Desire comes from the confined context whether it is social interaction or genes.

Is it possible that truth - absolute, infallible, unfathomable truth - cannot be discovered and/or defined by those who did not possess it in the first place?

All of the evidence we see, everything we observe in the universe points to a universe that at its core has no evil and no good, no objective morality, just "blind pitiless indifference." It is a universe that has existed for aeons without humanity and will continue to do so long after our light has gone out of the universe. Furthermore, by the very nature of philosophical method's questioning of given knowledge, doesn't it naturally lead you to a realm of purely unknowable chaos?

I hope Winter-Solstice was Merry!
In order to induce this sorcery, both parties must have a strong-will to do so, and it is suggested that the person who's wanting to do this already has experience with OOBE's
out-of-body-experiences. The more experience you have with sorcery, and ritual, the better. Know that this sorcery involves exchanging-lifelines. I'm looking for someone who's between my age, and 40.

Why do I want to induce such a sorcery? Why not? I want to experiment with what I alreday know about it from a past experience, but I need a willing person to do it with.
My physical age is 26; I'm handsome, healthy, and fit.

The sorcery doesn't have to be permanent (thats optional). If you're genuinely interested in any of this, then please feel free to message me in private.

Are you interested in this kind of metaphysical knowledge?

Hey, I'm more than willing to take a little public criticism if thats what it takes to meet you.

Either your spouse or your child will die. The only choice you have is which one you are more willing to lose. Which are you more willing to give up? The answer must be based ONLY on your EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENTS. No 'logic' allowed

It seems to me that as time progresses, mankind becomes more metalized.
