Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, and Peter Thiel are all relatively brave, honest, and noble souls that since 2024 or so have failed badly in their lives. All five – and other prominent ones too – have turned rather seriously to the false and evil philosophy of Christianity. They seemingly tried hard to live a rational life and follow a rational philosophy – and certainly they were successful by many standards – but in the end it evidently didn’t fully work out and they weren’t entirely satisfied with their “secularism”. These five relatively high-quality thinkers and magnificent achievers simply couldn’t “fill their god-hole” with anything better than this Jesus drivel.
But the fact is you’re supposed to fill this psychological “hole” with reality and the cosmos. You’re supposed to fill this emptiness with real spirituality and transcendence. Not the fake, malicious, alien, vacuous, supernatural kind. You need to live with inspiration, uplift, beauty, heroism, and nobility in your life, yes. But you also need your eyes wide open and your brain thinking clearly, quickly, deeply, and accurately. You need to seek the absolute, objective truth – as much as you can find – and then try to live in accord with it.
But “god” isn’t the way. The reality of true and good philosophy is that man is a magnificent and ascent creature, and thus in many respects you must be your own god. You must become your own hero, noble soul, and “thing above and beyond the self”.
This is challenging, yes. But so is all of life. You can’t escape it. And living like this – without crutches or blindness – is highly rewarding. Such a lifestyle is also what reality, reason, human nature, magnificence, and happiness demand.
As a self-created individual and properly rational human being you must find and create your own meaning and purpose in life. This activity makes you great, admirable, and a bit like a god yourself. It’s a wonderful way to live.
It helps to remember that your indisputable, fundamental purpose in life is to maximize your potential and fulfill your destiny. Raise your quantity and quality of life to the highest level you can. Mother Nature and Father Reality – who rule all – ask that you uphold a mighty standard and become as great as possible while achieving as much as possible.
Of course, you shouldn’t work yourself to death or utter exhaustion. You must have, and have a right to have, a lot of fun and pleasure along the way. Life is a journey with plenty of rest stops and moments of relaxation and enjoyment. People need a good work/play/rest balance in their lives.
But as a natural hero and noble soul you do continually look upward and aim high. You try to live forever and become godlike in your knowledge and powers – however impossible this may be. All of these are noble and exalted goals and ideals to have, and constitute a fantastic and magnificent way to live.
