Here we have Il Nulla presenting his reactions to God or the hypothetical God if there is one. To me his post is coming from pain - note, I don’t mean that in some condescending way, like we can dismiss it as emotional. I mean, that it seems clear to me this is someone who has suffered and being open about how it has felt to be alive in the Universe for him.

Here’s the key portions of anew’s response to this post:

So, if any of you as adults have suffered emotional pain, you didn’t actually suffer that. The loss of a loved one did not actually lead to pain. That was pain in thought. Children can feel real pain. You don’t need scare quotes around their suffering (here the verb), but adults what they experience is ‘suffering’. I wonder at what age this magical transformation takes place. And note the ‘might’ and ‘some’. They might suffer some physical pain. Imagine the mind that thinks that adults might experience no suffering at all. Neither physical or emotional - this latter not possible.

And here he draws the conclusion that Il Nulla never loves or cares for others.

This is how a person who claims to have the solution to all human problems and the perfect method for achieving world peace and harmony thinks about adults and also responds to an individual adult who is, despite anew’s models of life, suffering.

But let’s talk about how Atla can’t possibly be right about anew, given that until a few days ago Atla hadn’t read Parmenides.
