"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to any thought you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. If you disagree, explain why in the comments. Downvoats are reserved for submissions you don't like or comments that do not add to the discussion, not opinions with which you disagree.

Please refrain from shower "observations;" we've heard them all before
-
Ideas for Voat features should be posted in /v/ideasforvoat, even if you think of them while in the shower

Is that an attempted pleasant way of saying we are parasites in a maze or matrix?
There is only one species "created in the image of Yahweh". And out of that, He's only interested in a very small remnant of them. The entire universe was created for their training. Everything else ... and everyone else ... are "nothing" or as spit to Him.

What if god isn't the creator but creation itself. Big bang was the birth of creation by our best explanation of our observations made purely from our earthly perspective at that given point in time and space and the beginning of all things that we currently comprehend. Everything comes from it. By our current concept of time and space we cannot comprehend what may have led up to that birth. God is just our way of ... contextualising that creation for the things we don't yet see the building blocks of and why they are the way they are.
Christians aren't wrong when they say god created all that is around us.
Science isn't wrong when it tries to make sense of it.
Its people in power that decides what is forbidden evil or dangerous. I think that there are things we know that were meant to be hidden until we were mature enough to inherit what we have without killing ourselves.
Somewhere along the way the protectors became corrupted and the hidden knowledge and our inheritance as mankind began to be used for profit and evil, and the powers that be have had to commit more and more evil as more normies around them became more and more intelligent by virtue of the intelligence of the people that raised them rather than being at the mercy of local doctrine from priests who were the early teachers, and there were reasons wars were fought over mass being spoken in Latin which only the priest could translate for the masses VS the local language that the local could understand the incantations and rituals for themselves and read their own bible.
How many generations prior to the 20th century had a majority of children who learned to read and write at home from fully literate parents who read them stories from birth
Now we are here with a potential collective consciousness of billions all able to communicate with each other instantly.
Time for the meek to inherit the earth.
