《Euphoria [DISCONTINUED]》"On Belief."
Advertisement
Lord Joyde The Madman: Heylo, everyone! How're you all doing?
So I don't know when this started happening or why but over the years I've held several theological debates with all sorts of people ranging from Atheists to Muslims (mostly Muslims tbh), who have brought my own beliefs into question because... this is important for them to know?
Atheists usually just PM me because they realize how "OMFG HES A BELIEVER HAHAHA" - (not all of them are like this but 90% are. I think there may be a connection between all those 0.5 star reviews I'm getting occassionally and the aforementioned kind of people) - and Muslims because they are triggered due to how I portrayed their faith during the early days of Euphoria.
There have been a few Christians here and there that have questioned me on why I am so against the Church.
So in order to hopefully put a stop to these rather annoying PMs, I will be posting this (latest) reply on every site I upload my stories to.

Personally, I'm a Christian Heretic~ (Deist)
I believe in God and only God. No human churches, no "holy books" and most certainly no dammed mortal or immortal prophets. God, to me, is an idea.
A perfection that must forever be striven for yet never achieved.
God is not a man or a woman or any "thing" at all. God is but a state of being and (perhaps more importantly) belief. God is the original, the first and the only.
Which is why God can only be found through logic and enlightenment, or as it is more commonly called today: Science.
Thing is, as a Deist:
You don't get what I mean? I don't care.
You want to understand what I mean? I cannot explain it to you, for there are no words capable of describing enlightenment without giving people the wrong idea. Find it yourself.

If you must visualize God as anything, then visualize God as a mass of Swirling Light and ephemeral threads reaching out to infinity and beyond, or better yet create your own image of God.
One day, you may even find out how the word "God" isn't quite good enough for the idea of perfection we refer to when invoking the aforementioned name/title.
Order, itself. This would be a far more appropriate word to describe the cosmic phenomenon known as "God".
Thank you for reading~!
I most certainly hope that you may find a few inklings of value from this description!

There.
Done.
Complete.
Feel free to have a debate in the comments or idk, call me a half-brained idiot for believing in God or w/e.
ANYWAYS, REAL CHAPTER COMING UP SOMETIME SOON™!

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
