think about your most deeply held beliefs

Dopameme · September 13, 2016, 06:03:55 PM

would you still hold your beliefs if you were the only one who believed them?

the way i see it...is if you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything

Of course

I will always believe that the teletubbies did 9/11, even if everyone thinks that it was actually the jews.

Stroud · September 13, 2016, 06:11:22 PM

As far as I know, there aren't many people who hold my beliefs or similar ones where I live. So yeah, I guess I would hold some of them still, but not all.

September 13, 2016, 06:12:39 PM

obviously

fireandice722 · September 13, 2016, 06:43:02 PM

To be honest, probably not, and if I did hold on to it, it'd be pretty damn hard

Aether · September 13, 2016, 06:52:21 PM

Truth is truth regardless of whether or not it is recognized, and I do my best to align my beliefs with truth.

I don't really know what my own beliefs are.

I mean, I'm always excited for new scientific discoveries and progress but I don't really have much one way or the other with political stuff. Mainly because I don't feel I know enough about most things in that topic to really hold a valid opinion of what I think is best.

Of course. Almost everyone already doesn't think there's a Zionist led conspiracy to kill the white race and control every facet of the world.

I believe some principles can be applied outside this known reality. Try to avoid damaging others, for instance. Any being should have some manner of 'substance' to it that could be impeded or harmed pointlessly to the general detriment of itself and the order of things in general. Try to turn hurts beyond your control into positive lessons, healing, growth. Humour is important but it's a double-edged sword, laugh at anything- laugh at pain for pain's sake- and you've degraded your own existence.

If I'm all alone in this current existence, then I believe these ideas still hold true.

I'd like to think so.

If your beliefs are determined by the opinions of others, you're holding your beliefs for the wrong reasons. You should reason things because you can demonstrate that they're true, not because a bunch of people are going to agree with you.

Arren · September 13, 2016, 09:07:09 PM

That depends on the criticisms of those beliefs. If I think the criticism is justified and isn't consistent with my goals then I'd reform my beliefs. I wouldn't reject my beliefs out of the circumstance that I was alone in believing them.

Solonoid · September 13, 2016, 09:43:21 PM

I would still probably still think cock was great.

I've held that pretty deeply.

Zonda · September 13, 2016, 10:09:51 PM

I will uphold the fight against Anime even when it looks bleakest

NothingSpecial · September 13, 2016, 10:15:23 PM

Maybe. I might change my mind if someone else explained their beliefs and it made more sense than my own. Depends on what it is, really.

Elai · September 13, 2016, 10:18:11 PM

if anything, my inner contrarian would make that more appealing to me

clum clum · September 14, 2016, 05:40:28 AM

I would hold on to it until the bitter end, because my beliefs are facts.

Super Irish · September 14, 2016, 06:16:32 AM

Probably.

Plenty of people disagree with me now and I'm still sticking to what I believe.

Probably yes. I already live in a household of Christians who don't believe the same things I do.

Jester · September 14, 2016, 08:28:20 AM

It'd be difficult, but probably.

Ender · September 14, 2016, 08:28:48 AM

Of course

🂿 · September 15, 2016, 12:31:22 AM

I don't even have any to begin with.
