Yeah but its not that simple to be god, clergy and layman of your own religion, requires some mental gimastics

wasn't an issue for Kierkegaard. he even managed to write well while he was at it, unlike Camus.

>> No.12563660

Camus is so fucking cringe. Says nothing worthwhile, interesting, original. He’s milquetoast. People who post about him are fucking 13. Le epic sad boy Facebook!!! Shut the fuck up and die cunt.

What is a leap of faith?

>> No.12563729

>>12563640
why does everything have to be a fucking religion with u people?
>>12563698
its the way that people hand over their intellect to some conception of reality to try and have an absolute they can live by. Like accepting God or accepting that the universe is some existential chaos dream world

What is the alternative to the leap of faith? Nihilism?

>> No.12563774

>>12563740
according to camus, no. its more like you just dont know the meaning and probably never will. BUT that doesnt mean you stop looking or stop observing life with your individual reason your consciousness provides. you "revolt" against life by not killing your human nature to wonder and seek more knowledge and LIVE how YOU feel is best

>> No.12563792

Sounds leap of faithy if you ask me

>> No.12563822

>>12563792
It's the leap of faith without the faith and without the leap. You go to a cafe, smoke cigarettes and talk about how Absurdism has brought lucidity to your life as a harsh light illuminates the painted plasterboard set of a bad melodrama.

its not because you dont accept the world in one way or another (this doesnt mean that you accept it as being 'random' either). it sounds like a leap of faith because i summarized his ideas in ONE sentence

A lot of people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch of unconnected incidences and things. They don't realize that there's this like Lattice Of Coincidence that lays on top of everything. I'll Give you an example, show you what I mean. Suppose you thinking about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly somebody will say like plate or shrimp or plate of shrimp out of the blue no explanation. No point in looking for one either. It's all part of a Cosmic Unconsciousness.

>> No.12563844

>>12563833
Synchronicity is not some magical force of the universe, its your unconscious awareness bringing you relevant stuff into the relatively narrow focus of your conscious awareness.
