I think apathy comes from a background of not being able(or thinking)you are unable to change things for the better. You may have suffered or have decided on becoming socially uninteractive. With these thoughts, conception and imagination wither. When they wither its a spiral into numbness. To regain feeling one has to believe and align themselves with something that they forgot mattered. They have to delve into the place that once was alive and find a shred of what it was and harness it.
Apathy... I didn't know I hate somebody... or i love money or materila things... But i don't actually care about them... and i don't care about this video. I just wanna say that.
I feel unworthy of living. Im just a worthless piece of meat with no emotions no passion. If only I had died at that time when I lost my emotions. Its a crime to God that I still exist
i feel that this video is quite one sided... apathy is such a deep and multifactorial issue, simply saying that it is bad with regard to the trivial examples mentioned doesn't do the concept any justice... apathy can be goood :)
i agree with you... also, maybe in some ways apathetic individuals could be too reflective... what i mean by this is that one may evaluate everything from as many perspectives as possible and eventually reach an equilibrium where no single emotional point of view is given priority, hence apathy develops...
What a valuable, artistic shot at explaining and suggesting a valuable, painless replacement for apathy. See Tim Meslin's TED workshops on Apathy, and the explanation of obstacles to engagement that our culture places before us, then calls us "lazy, selfish and stupid." Thank you Abby, very nice work
apathy is great dudes it keeps away from all the lame drama. it makes me feel happy and strengthens the spirit, empathy only weakens you and makes you to clinging. i love apathy it helps me to live and survive, empathy doesn't
Apathy saved me when I was confused, hurting and angry, angry at everything. I felt so many emotions at once, I guess I just sorta... "broke". My mind cut it all out in defence, to protect me from going psycho, very very psycho. It was "healing" to me. Now I'm all better and in control of my emotions. Yes, I never really shook off the apathy. Yes, I still "feel" emotions, but distantly. I've become mellow, calm, laidback... It's not THAT bad and I'm definitely not a zombie.
Everyone should study about the only man that walked this planet without apathy. His mission was love for all even the ones that put him on the cross.
Rationality belongs to the cool and apathetic observer while the masses waste their time in painful relationships and meaningless rhetoric about norms and delusions of wanting to be rich and like elites and begging to be indoctrinated so they don't see the truth of the system. Apathy restores the mind to a sovereign state....
@Bodhidharma1986 I like the way you put this. But being in this state ruins a lot of life, imo. I have let things slip, opportunities, friendships even family. Often walking around like an empty shell is what I do, not that I care..it just happens. Apathy does make someone think rationally, and you see things for what they are when you're aside observing. I'm not sure if that makes any sense.... but in all, life is short. I don't want to spend it not caring/being aware of life.
Thank you Abby. This clip was like a beacon on a brooding sea at night to remind me of some important issues I really need to pay attention to and explore in order to enhance save navigational passage of my human vessel.
while i was watching it it made me feel something, something like i was feeling when i was a kid when life seemed all beautiful and so..alive. sadly, this feeling left short after and now im a emotionless living dead again..no desire to live, to die or do anything i feel like im controlled by something, like i dont exist anymore and i know i cant do anything about it.i dont even know why im writing this.. oh well...
This person is confusiong apathy/indifference with psychopathy, where apathy is a state of reduced/non-existant emotion and motivation, where-as psychopathy is similar but for self-beneficial reasons, yet people with psychopathy pretend to have emotions, people with apathy don't.
I am going to send this REMINDER to as many people as I can, Sharing something I have found to have value, to ME. Heart that watches this the value of it will grow and grow. I like the part about the sun rays through the trees. It reminded me of being a child and witnessing the sun rays breaking through the rain clouds.
Thank you, the value of what you gave me in this video seemed to dive down (scuba like) and recover the lost treasures (emotions) that have been soaking sense my boat sank.!!!
I love this video cause ....I am ! Thats so hard to wake up any morning with these fellings .... I try to believed in me , each day of my life .... But its to hard ... I feel empty ...lonely , my heart blood ... But nobodies can help me ... I try to put my anger , my pain on sculputes ... That works sometimes.... But just .... Sometimes ......... Its hard to live ....and believed .................... The world is so complicated .... I dont feel the humanity ...where ever i look ....
@Jizyon Yeah I felt the same way. I like to write and draw during my spare time and I decided to start a career in art about a year ago. Its nice to have an outlet for negativity and I think art is perfect whether its drawing, sculpting, dancing, playing instruments, singing etc. Your art is a beautiful translation of your pain without having to speak it. Try to smile more, not because you're happy but because you want to be happy.
Apathy was explained beautifully in this video..And those who say they are not apathetic or disagree with this videos definition.. Remember the people starving in Africa! The world knows it's happening, yet no one is marching in the streets. Most people don't even think about it in their daily dealings, yet they are not unaware of it happening. That is only one example of apathy. We are all one society. No matter what religion, color, race, continent or even species! (I love animals)
The other day I was accused being apathic and I had no idea what it meant or what I did do that made this person tell me this. This person meant it very serious but I do not consider myself uninterested or emotionless. So what can it be I am not aware of?
I thought that apathy was linked to existentialism. I remember that when I was going through an existential phase that meaning had no value. That made me more apathetic, and somewhat sociopathic.
However, learning that words, philosophies, and symbolism have a dualistic meaning. So as humans to escape apathy is to accept both those dual meanings, and do not become an extremist concerning only one belief. Being open, I became more lively from learning new things; so I am never stagnant!!!!
You forgot some important points. Apathy allows you to never feel pain. Apathy allows you to read the intentions of others as well as what they truly mean when they say things. I prefer to watch the world and observe. Apathy allows you to not care about meaningless relationships that will just cause pain.
just today er tonight life has been really tight i just let go and everything was fun food tasted like the shit laying playsation was afuckingmazing. the only thinng that bothers me is, isnt the water that the goverment is gives us contaning florine that causes apathy
@freedominfonetwork There's no more apathy now then there was before. There are still right wing loons screaming on the right (Tea Party) and socialist left wing nuts screaming on the left (Occupy Wallstreet). There are still goosestepping radicals everywhere. Fear them, not the apathetic. They are the ones that will put a gun to your head if you're not the right race,party,religion, or sexual orientation.
I think this video is a litle bit superficial. Basically it says that apathy comes from our desire of money, and futile consumistic things or hate or wars. Well I often am apathic but I don't really care about money or consumism and I am also pretty spiritual. There must be other reasons.
It's funny that you say that, because I'm often apathetic of the things you listed: money, greed, materialism, desire, etc. I simply don't and won't give a damn about a world caught up in a bunch of nothing.
That's not to say I don't care at all. I love friends, family, neighbors, happiness, making others happy through story telling and friendship. Learning and living in peace the best I can.
Thanks for pointing that out...i can see what you mean...i was merely giving a certain example of apathy and wasn't trying to disregard others. Thanks =)
I am a very apathetic,confused,troubled person. Im very interested in some things. Quantum mechanics,metaphysics,ontology,cartesian dualism,dualism itself,Parallel universes,time travel,astral projection. all these things interest me a lot. But the downside of cartesian dualism is it drops you into solipsism.solipsism. i have metaphysical problems. My mind has to ignore things in order to live a normal life. Which i cant anyways. Look up solipsism and youll understand. I cant live a normal life
I also believe this apathy that has occurred within me has ALSO been as a result of doing things in my life that I believe would not consider me as being honoured as a creation of God. Although I am so honoured its just that I am bad at school because of laziness and baad concentration (somewhat caused by my A.D.D) - I just cant bother to do better at school although I am considering on actually doing so (Ive said that before lol).
I see everything around me as signs that symbolise something.
Always keep in mind that it is an emotion not unlike happy, sad, angry, ect. don't let it control you, but you control it. Counter the thoughts it presents with better more God like responses. We can control our minds with God's help not positive thought positive circumstances but in all things give thanks, look to share love with actions. IE. "I don't give a rip" with " hold on a minute how can I better this problem?" get the idea? apathy has it's place, like anger but don't let the two meet.
there is no god and if there was you shouldnt be so dependent on him. it makes you weak as a person to always put your problems and feelings on an imaginary being. you can cheer yourself up in your own ways. get a hobbie, smoke, go to a show. anything. but putting it on a god is pathetic
Either like it or not every ideology requires thought outside ourselves. This demands another to generate the order to this world that we don't understand and can not control. otherwise this very ordered existence we call life would cease to have relevance and cause the problems we were discussing. The problem is not dependence on God, far from it. The problem is seeing ourselves as god, the most important part of the puzzle and not sharing the grace we demand for ourselves.
i dont need anything to put my problems on. i deal with them myself because i know they are MY problems and not a gods. just because we dont know something it doesnt mean make something else up to take its place. our existence is not ordered. it is random. and our lives do mean abosolutely nothing. the only thing you can try to do is live your life, make yourself happy, help others, and leave something good for people to remeber you. yes the problem is a dependence on a fake god
You foolishly deny your own beliefs with your own words. Do you understand your belief structure "requires" no moral obligations? The reason for morals is to attain a higher position in the cosmos, which also attains a higher level of existence. If random order is true than Darwin, Hitler and Mussolini were correct that it is survival of the fittest and we all need to get what we can for ourselves and our offspring to better the gene pool for the unexplainable drive of life... Major flaw.
correct i have no obligations but i choose to help others and do good not because im afraid of a god but because im a good person. It seems you are afraid of randomness. It is survival of the fittest but that doesnt mean horde and kill. its sad how you need your god to do good and feel happy but cant do those things on your own.
Again moral standards can not be generated by ourselves, our nature our very being and all be it selfish desires require us to do what pleases us. The logic you choose to follow precludes a higher level of concern for the existence of others than you or I could find within us. Survival of the fittest doesn't require horde and kill, but it does require procreate with any member of the opposite sex and create offspring regardless of the association with other humans. 1 amoral thought to chew on.
so people would fuck each other? big fucking deal if thats the worst of survival of the fittest ill deal with it.
you have a very bad veiw on humanity. yes a lot of humans are complete douche bags but that doesnt mean there arent also a lot of good people who do care for others and help eachother WITHOUT a higher power.
a fucking child could see your beliefs are self hating and require fairy tale beings to make yourself feel better cuz your mommy didnt give you enough attention
You always prove my point so eloquently. So my realistic view is annoying your lack of hope? interesting. Folks like your camp always resort to the same "it can't be true because I don't want it to be" mentality without ever as much as a consideration that there, as proven by this dialog itself may be another reality worthy of consideration. Also consider the anger in your words as rebellion against common truth. Notice I haven't even gotten a little upset as I am open to legitimate thought
its funny how everything you just said is completely wrong and is only true for you. you are NOT a realist out of both of us that is me. i see no good reason to believe in a higher power but you have your stupid excuse called faith. you resort to "it must be true because it makes me feel good". so there being a higher power is common truth??(when i read that i laughed in person)
im sorry if im getting angery i just get pissed off at dumbass religious people
Do you realize the very argument you are using is one of faith? If your right then it is your faith in your belief that is threatened and that angers you, As it should. I never stop questioning my beliefs because I don't know anything outside this reality, but I know that I have a moral compass that lower forms of life don't and that is evidence of "something" apart from this existence. You also have this compass that you use all I asked is why? In your own words you choose to help others Why ?
first i want to say something about "lower forms of life". theres no such thing. we are no better than any other species. we all evolved from little cells. there is no higher or lower. i dont believe in anything if it just requires faith. my beliefs are always based on facts and reasoning. my moral compass is from my brain nothing else if i was raised being taught that killing was ok i wouldnt care about killing. we are creatures of habit. there is no reason to believe in a higher power.
Human = amoeba interesting concept abandon by every thoughtful scientist on the planet but not you. Why do we have gender if evolution is right? did two asexual creatures enjoy rubbing each other until they grew genitals? don't you use your brain for any thoughts that matter to your faith? If you are going to defend something at least have the decency to use a logical argument. Try objectively reading the posts from the beginning and begin rethinking your position. Think for yourself.
May I quickly just say that the body is amazing. Apathy is like a defence mechanism to emotions that can cause fatal consequences (such as depression and anxiety), especially since I have never felt these emotions in full blast that had come hitting me really fast.
I believe in God ehatever I ask, goes except for the stupid stuff like wanting to be telepathic although seriously I found out I was something similar to a telepath not long after
I not only temporary lost my emotions and some parts of my empathic ability, but also some of my intelligence, some of my wit, and my ability to make the funniest jokes... (I am not kidding I am truely like that...).
What can I do to speed up this recovery process? I must let the Lord know I am ready to be the way I was born to be again...
@Ivanshere Hi my friend! I am going through the same thing.. For two weeks ago I got suddenly very apathic.. Suddenly I lost all my emotions.. I feel almost that I am living dead, it is very scary.. I am usually a very happy and emphatic person.. Do you know what I can do to get healed? I hate having apathy.. I will apreciate very much if you answer.. Please help me!
Even though I am an empath, I suffered from apathy from Friday 5th June (my birthday believe it or not -__-) and I still do today although it is recovering gradually...
I have felt no emotions. As an empath, I always feel emotions from other people and in turn I absorbed those emotions as if they were my own.
Although it stopped - I prayed to God that I wanted a break from being an empath and I had it - although I really want to be back to the person who I was meant to be - its destiny!
Let me tell you a true story that happened two weeks ago on the week of my birthday.
* Btw this has never happened b4...
On Monday June 1st, I became depressed for 3 days. I then started suffering from anxiety for 2 days. After that, I became suffering from apathy, even though I am truely an empath.
I am not sure what it is like to suffer from apathy like the others, because I am far different. Google 'empath' and click on the 'healing' link to find out what it is.
Apathy is not the problem but the God given coping mechanism for the human condition and it's failures, much as shock is to the immediate pain of physical injury. The flaw is not only that it is not self-indulgent , but that there would be no problem telling someone else how to feel when you have not even attempted to understand their pain. Apathy is sometimes the best cure for a human pain, but as with any emotion it can be abused and it easily becomes antipathy.
Knowing how human I am makes me apathetic. Who wants to be a parasite? A virus? So weak... The apathy is destroying my life and I find no escape. It makes nothing interesting, and from there, nothing to talk about. Making me a very quiet person. I need a solution! Not a definition.
Every Action we perform is based on the Desire for something, anything. Then, the Act of Apathy would be based on a Strong Desire for Indifference.
Therefore, and I'm sure you know this, based on the fact that you said you are Apathetic, even those who live an Apathetic Life have their fundamental Necesities based on the Desire for something, for anything.
Now, to be someone that is Apathetic is to be also someone who does not Care, who Ignores, who is Indifferent, and you know the rest, the deffinition.
So what is it that Anyone is to do if something does not seem to be working right?
Change.
Not only do you have to look for that something that you desire, because you know you DO desire something, we covered that. But you also have to Change your Indifference to Interest.
Become interested, change the way you have thought until now.
Just as a finish-up, realize that there is only one Life to Live, its up to you to waste it, or enjoy it.
I dont know you, or the rest of the world, but I'd rather live up to something for just one second, than to have nothing to live to for 70 or so years.
You are what you think, and what you think is what you do. Think positive, and be mindful, and thats what you'll be.
Now I Am Done. Thanks for listening, I hope* that you listened, and cared*.
This video is actually misinform use. I didn't become apathetic because I've too much money and too many cars to dare caring about the world.I have become apathetic because I became indifferent to the superficiality of this world, to the over use of the words "I love you"," You are amazing" ,"We are friend."I am indifferent to this world not because that I care about the money and the wealth that I can gain but because I don't care about them and they make this world shallow
I don't know what utubia is, but I liked this video alot. I would add though, as one of your definitions of apathy: A state of perpetual boredom. I think many on the online community can relate to that. If you are bored, it is only yourself you are bored of.
THis was a piece of shit created out of good intentions. You confuse apathy with selfishness and I thank you because you, my new best friend, allowed me to feel an emotion again even though it came in the form of anger and disgust at your ignorance... a brief relief from genuine apathy.
I feel that this is a subject that is massively misunderstood, incredibly under talked about, and extremely unacknowledged by most. Do you know if Apathy is the symptom or the disease? I think even the most common intellect is more than capable, and therefore we should not insult it by reasoning that their non-humanity is simply the choice they would prefer. Apathy it seems, then, is the nature we are born into, and the nurture we subscribe in our bitter end.
I agree, money is a very rare cause of apathy. Apathy grows from more disturbing things, unique to each individual. For instance, my parents have ignored me from an early age. I use to suffer and think of whats wrong with me. After years you grow tired and subconsciously learn how to block out bad feelings. You start to stop caring about anything. Emotions start to become useless to you. But strangely, you always feel complacency because nothing can bother you. Thats all
this was quite moving, it made me feel good for only a moment i have become so apathetic that in my eyes I realize that some of us werent meant to be happy, for some of us loneliness and seclusion is the only option that presents itself
No., Seclusion and loneliness isn't the only option. It may seem that way! But it's not! Just me replying to you means that you don't have to be alone and that some people actually do care. I may know how you feel about humanity.. They're.. Many of them are disgusting and evil.. Or it's just the ''bad'' ones that got all the power and the good ones have become weak and dare not try to do anything about it. I'll keep on fighting for the world. Go out and love, free yourself from the chains. Pleas
Nice video, however you haven't described the positive effects of apathy, such as expanding your mind, not caring about society's expectations, and not trying to control your own thougths & emotions
quick side not there buddy there are no postives to that.
Apthay is a lack of caring, no 'caring' about society or it's expectations generally relates to a passion when someone think something is wrong or rotten with in the place in which they live.
Apathy is the drug of this age.
Can't deal with life?
Don't want to get down.
Well have a sub par attitude to run you through every day until you lose yourself to nothingness.
You can begin loving, my friend. I'm just trying.. I blocked my heart too, but I never managed to reach apathy.. I'm not that kind of person to reach it.. I guess I'm too passionate and spirited! ''All we need is love'' .. It really is. I could help you by ''removing'' your apathy.. By giving you some tools, because I cannot do it for you. It may be hard. But the fact that you're writing here that you want to stop apathy means something. Write me, friend :)
I feel I'm becoming apathetic. This isn't some kid here trying to 'fit in'. I'm 20 in a couple of week. Anyhoo, because I find it painful to show my deepest emotions, afraid of being hurt & rejected, my mind & soul even has decided to shut of ALL emotions. Many see me as a "mono" person, some think I'm just laid back but I just find it hard to feel for anything, worse I feel little for many around me too. I don't know ALL the ins and outs of this topic but it's relevant to a lot of my daily life
imagine if we were all immortal and felt no pain then we could do whatever we wanted without feeling bad about it...
When you have feelings for people you never met about something bad happening to them is it really that you feel sorry for them or that you are afraid of it happening to you?
I like constructive thoughts instead of destructive... it's better to build instead of destroy because it provides a higher facet of entertainment... I think I used those words wrong...
My god, man. All the description fitted me. Yup, it's confirmed then. My soul is dead.
A week ago I had a girlfriend of 1 month. I broke it off. Coz I felt exactly like at 2:47.
I've forgotten a lot of things already. Love, hope, expectations. I just dun give a f*ck anymore. Can't even remember how it felt to have a crush last time.
Or maybe I'm becoming asexual rather then apathetic? lol.
I'm not apathetic, because I have an intense desire to eradicate mankind from the face of the earth. I'm fuelled by a flaming passion when it comes to hating the human race.
Apathy isnt necessarily as you describe it, it can have many meanings. I dont give a fuck what people think because I am my own person, and thats all that means anything to me. Yet Im very apathetic. I know many sympathetic people who are just as if not more unhappy than me, but theyre dishonest about it. At least Im unhappy, dont give a shit, and am open about it. All they're worried about is structuring a false sense of self worth through other's approval. Theyre the real problem in humanity.
what is pathetic is that the cum shot has more views than this inspiring video that is what is wrong with the world no one whats to come out of their cacoons because people are afraid of being hated for who they really are but one day the world will chaneg and then we will be free without prejudice without judgement with only human emotions to change the world we must educate the world out of the cacoon built by this enviromnt
Hmm, i see watcher sayin here, but u did focus 2 much on the $ thing. u see im apathetic on the outside 2 show assholes, jocks, no lives, cliques (ESPECIALLY) an etc. to show i dont give a shit bout them buut, independant in the inside, so i wat im doin is right
I watch about 1/2 the video and saw mostly $ being the main culprit of apathy. In my opinion, from personal experience, the defining factor most contributive to this mind state is the lack of love from others, especially family, and a deficiency of social approval. Those who feel protected, appreciated, and cared for are the most satisfied in life, regardless of wealth. The rich and poor suffer from apathy the most due to an imbalance in these qualities. Biological Necessity > Reason.
Thankyou for your kind comments as well. It's refreshing to meet others who agree instead of wanting to disagree for the sake of their'ego'and pride. Apathy was the general feeling after the Vietnam War and the Generation of Love suddenly woke uP to the Reality we all face and hopefully can make Better starting from Healing ourselves from within and reaching out as well. Where do you live ? I'm in Vancouver, Canada
I have been overwhelmed, angry and sad about the state of this planet for a long time because there has been too much 'old' news and no solutions in sight. However, if we all work on ourselves, we might yet get it 'right'. "May You Be Blessed" is also an excellent video to watch
Sometimes when watching videos about emotions I think alright i see the advice but can you just get rid of what im feeling now?.....please?

I think apathy comes from a background of not being able(or thinking)you are unable to change things for the better. You may have suffered or have decided on becoming socially uninteractive. With these thoughts, conception and imagination wither. When they wither its a spiral into numbness. To regain feeling one has to believe and align themselves with something that they forgot mattered. They have to delve into the place that once was alive and find a shred of what it was and harness it.

Its nice to have an outlet for negativity and I think art is perfect whether its drawing, sculpting, dancing, playing instruments, singing etc. Your art is a beautiful translation of your pain without having to speak it. Try to smile more, not because you're happy but because you want to be happy.

Apathy has its ruts in love not hate
Cyricist001 1 year ago
Apathy was explained beautifully in this video..And those who say they are not apathetic or disagree with this videos definition.. Remember the people starving in Africa! The world knows it's happening, yet no one is marching in the streets. Most people don't even think about it in their daily dealings, yet they are not unaware of it happening. That is only one example of apathy. We are all one society. No matter what religion, color, race, continent or even species! (I love animals)

The other day I was accused being apathic and I had no idea what it meant or what I did do that made this person tell me this. This person meant it very serious but I do not consider myself uninterested or emotionless. So what can it be I am not aware of?
zerobubbel 2 years ago
I thought that apathy was linked to existentialism. I remember that when I was going through an existential phase that meaning had no value. That made me more apathetic, and somewhat sociopathic.
However, learning that words, philosophies, and symbolism have a dualistic meaning. So as humans to escape apathy is to accept both those dual meanings, and do not become an extremist concerning only one belief. Being open, I became more lively from learning new things; so I am never stagnant!!!!

You forgot some important points. Apathy allows you to never feel pain. Apathy allows you to read the intentions of others as well as what they truly mean when they say things. I prefer to watch the world and observe. Apathy allows you to not care about meaningless relationships that will just cause pain.

Fear them, not the apathetic. They are the ones that will put a gun to your head if you're not the right race,party,religion, or sexual orientation.

It's funny that you say that, because I'm often apathetic of the things you listed: money, greed, materialism, desire, etc. I simply don't and won't give a damn about a world caught up in a bunch of nothing.
That's not to say I don't care at all. I love friends, family, neighbors, happiness, making others happy through story telling and friendship. Learning and living in peace the best I can.

I am a very apathetic,confused,troubled person. Im very interested in some things.

But the downside of cartesian dualism is it drops you into solipsism.solipsism. i have metaphysical problems. My mind has to ignore things in order to live a normal life. Which i cant anyways.

I also believe this apathy that has occurred within me has ALSO been as a result of doing things in my life that I believe would not consider me as being honoured as a creation of God. Although I am so honoured its just that I am bad at school because of laziness and baad concentration (somewhat caused by my A.D.D) - I just cant bother to do better at school although I am considering on actually doing so (Ive said that before lol).
I see everything around me as signs that symbolise something.

Always keep in mind that it is an emotion not unlike happy, sad, angry, ect. don't let it control you, but you control it. Counter the thoughts it presents with better more God like responses. We can control our minds with God's help not positive thought positive circumstances but in all things give thanks, look to share love with actions. IE. "I don't give a rip" with " hold on a minute how can I better this problem?" get the idea? apathy has it's place, like anger but don't let the two meet.
ts31119 2 years ago
why is the answer always "God"?
there is no god and if there was you shouldnt be so dependent on him. it makes you weak as a person to always put your problems and feelings on an imaginary being. you can cheer yourself up in your own ways. get a hobbie, smoke, go to a show. anything. but putting it on a god is pathetic
adiosucks123 2 years ago
Either like it or not every ideology requires thought outside ourselves. This demands another to generate the order to this world that we don't understand and can not control. otherwise this very ordered existence we call life would cease to have relevance and cause the problems we were discussing. The problem is not dependence on God, far from it. The problem is seeing ourselves as god, the most important part of the puzzle and not sharing the grace we demand for ourselves.
ts31119 2 years ago
i dont need anything to put my problems on. i deal with them myself because i know they are MY problems and not a gods. just because we dont know something it doesnt mean make something else up to take its place. our existence is not ordered. it is random. and our lives do mean abosolutely nothing. the only thing you can try to do is live your life, make yourself happy, help others, and leave something good for people to remeber you. yes the problem is a dependence on a fake god
adiosucks123 2 years ago
You foolishly deny your own beliefs with your own words. Do you understand your belief structure "requires" no moral obligations? The reason for morals is to attain a higher position in the cosmos, which also attains a higher level of existence. If random order is true than Darwin, Hitler and Mussolini were correct that it is survival of the fittest and we all need to get what we can for ourselves and our offspring to better the gene pool for the unexplainable drive of life... Major flaw.
ts31119 2 years ago
correct i have no obligations but i choose to help others and do good not because im afraid of a god but because im a good person. It seems you are afraid of randomness. It is survival of the fittest but that doesnt mean horde and kill. its sad how you need your god to do good and feel happy but cant do those things on your own.
adiosucks123 2 years ago
Again moral standards can not be generated by ourselves, our nature our very being and all be it selfish desires require us to do what pleases us. The logic you choose to follow precludes a higher level of concern for the existence of others than you or I could find within us. Survival of the fittest doesn't require horde and kill, but it does require procreate with any member of the opposite sex and create offspring regardless of the association with other humans. 1 amoral thought to chew on.
ts31119 2 years ago
so people would fuck each other? big fucking deal if thats the worst of survival of the fittest ill deal with it.
you have a very bad veiw on humanity. yes a lot of humans are complete douche bags but that doesnt mean there arent also a lot of good people who do care for others and help eachother WITHOUT a higher power.
a fucking child could see your beliefs are self hating and require fairy tale beings to make yourself feel better cuz your mommy didnt give you enough attention
adiosucks123 2 years ago
You always prove my point so eloquently. So my realistic view is annoying your lack of hope? interesting. Folks like your camp always resort to the same "it can't be true because I don't want it to be" mentality without ever as much as a consideration that there, as proven by this dialog itself may be another reality worthy of consideration. Also consider the anger in your words as rebellion against common truth. Notice I haven't even gotten a little upset as I am open to legitimate thought
ts31119 2 years ago 2
its funny how everything you just said is completely wrong and is only true for you. you are NOT a realist out of both of us that is me. i see no good reason to believe in a higher power but you have your stupid excuse called faith. you resort to "it must be true because it makes me feel good". so there being a higher power is common truth??(when i read that i laughed in person)
im sorry if im getting angery i just get pissed off at dumbass religious people
adiosucks123 2 years ago
Do you realize the very argument you are using is one of faith? If your right then it is your faith in your belief that is threatened and that angers you, As it should. I never stop questioning my beliefs because I don't know anything outside this reality, but I know that I have a moral compass that lower forms of life don't and that is evidence of "something" apart from this existence. You also have this compass that you use all I asked is why? In your own words you choose to help others Why ?
ts31119 2 years ago
first i want to say something about "lower forms of life". theres no such thing. we are no better than any other species. we all evolved from little cells. there is no higher or lower. i dont believe in anything if it just requires faith. my beliefs are always based on facts and reasoning. my moral compass is from my brain nothing else if i was raised being taught that killing was ok i wouldnt care about killing. we are creatures of habit. there is no reason to believe in a higher power.
adiosucks123 2 years ago
Human = amoeba interesting concept abandon by every thoughtful scientist on the planet but not you. Why do we have gender if evolution is right? did two asexual creatures enjoy rubbing each other until they grew genitals? don't you use your brain for any thoughts that matter to your faith?

May I quickly just say that the body is amazing. Apathy is like a defence mechanism to emotions that can cause fatal consequences (such as depression and anxiety), especially since I have never felt these emotions in full blast that had come hitting me really fast.
I believe in God ehatever I ask, goes except for the stupid stuff like wanting to be telepathic although seriously I found out I was something similar to a telepath not long after

livingfaith17 1 year ago
Even though I am an empath, I suffered from apathy from Friday 5th June (my birthday believe it or not -__-) and I still do today although it is recovering gradually...
I have felt no emotions. As an empath, I always feel emotions from other people and in turn I absorbed those emotions as if they were my own.
Although it stopped - I prayed to God that I wanted a break from being an empath and I had it - although I really want to be back to the person who I was meant to be - its destiny!

Let me tell you a true story that happened two weeks ago on the week of my birthday.
* Btw this has never happened b4...
On Monday June 1st, I became depressed for 3 days. I then started suffering from anxiety for 2 days. After that, I became suffering from apathy, even though I am truely an empath.
I am not sure what it is like to suffer from apathy like the others, because I am far different. Google 'empath' and click on the 'healing' link to find out what it is.
Ivanshere 2 years ago
Apathy is not the problem but the God given coping mechanism for the human condition and it's failures, much as shock is to the immediate pain of physical injury. The flaw is not only that it is not self-indulgent , but that there would be no problem telling someone else how to feel when you have not even attempted to understand their pain. Apathy is sometimes the best cure for a human pain, but as with any emotion it can be abused and it easily becomes antipathy.

destroyfaith94 2 years ago
Well dude, this is the way I look at it:
Every Action we perform is based on the Desire for something, anything. Then, the Act of Apathy would be based on a Strong Desire for Indifference.
Therefore, and I'm sure you know this, based on the fact that you said you are Apathetic, even those who live an Apathetic Life have their fundamental Necesities based on the Desire for something, for anything.
The problem is: Finding that Something.

Now, to be someone that is Apathetic is to be also someone who does not Care, who Ignores, who is Indifferent, and you know the rest, the deffinition.
So what is it that Anyone is to do if something does not seem to be working right?
Change.
Not only do you have to look for that something that you desire, because you know you DO desire something, we covered that. But you also have to Change your Indifference to Interest.
Become interested, change the way you have thought until now.

I feel that this is a subject that is massively misunderstood, incredibly under talked about, and extremely unacknowledged by most. Do you know if Apathy is the symptom or the disease? I think even the most common intellect is more than capable, and therefore we should not insult it by reasoning that their non-humanity is simply the choice they would prefer. Apathy it seems, then, is the nature we are born into, and the nurture we subscribe in our bitter end.

I agree, money is a very rare cause of apathy. Apathy grows from more disturbing things, unique to each individual. For instance, my parents have ignored me from an early age. I use to suffer and think of whats wrong with me. After years you grow tired and subconsciously learn how to block out bad feelings. You start to stop caring about anything. Emotions start to become useless to you. But strangely, you always feel complacency because nothing can bother you. Thats all

I watch about 1/2 the video and saw mostly $ being the main culprit of apathy. In my opinion, from personal experience, the defining factor most contributive to this mind state is the lack of love from others, especially family, and a deficiency of social approval. Those who feel protected, appreciated, and cared for are the most satisfied in life, regardless of wealth. The rich and poor suffer from apathy the most due to an imbalance in these qualities. Biological Necessity > Reason.

Thankyou for your kind comments as well. It's refreshing to meet others who agree instead of wanting to disagree for the sake of their'ego'and pride. Apathy was the general feeling after the Vietnam War and the Generation of Love suddenly woke uP to the Reality we all face and hopefully can make Better starting from Healing ourselves from within and reaching out as well. Where do you live ? I'm in Vancouver, Canada

I have been overwhelmed, angry and sad about the state of this planet for a long time because there has been too much 'old' news and no solutions in sight. However, if we all work on ourselves, we might yet get it 'right'. "May You Be Blessed" is also an excellent video to watch
