      one of the costs of tying the good to the beautiful is that making someone feel bad becomes equivalent to making someone feel ugly. then they stop living.https://twitter.com/AbstractFairy/status/1366072631833858055 …

      On self image: > The secret is this: To really “live,” that is, to find life reasonably satisfying, you must have an adequate and realistic self-image that you can live with. You must find your self acceptable to “you.” You must have a wholesome self-esteem...

      something that is Infinitely Beautiful makes everyone equidistant from this same Source.

      something that is Really Beautiful however increases the contrast instead of decreasing it.

      every “ugly” religious stance (per dfw’s “everyone worships” idea) attempts to pass the Really Beautiful as the Infinitely Beautiful through the rationale “Infinity doesn’t exist” well... yeah... that’s the point of the concept...

      Humility is the virtue behind the "Fear of God". What this unachievable infinity that sits above *all* hierarchies does is that it insures infinite humility.

      Neither actually "exists" in the "real world". They are concepts. But understanding God is necessary for certain actions just like understanding infinity is necessary to solve certain math problems! https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1331918740556976130 …

      There are however bridges. E.g. "The Infinity of God" can be interpreted secularly as "Reality is Fractal" or "Reality has a Surprising Amount of Detail."

      On one hand there are those who believe that ultimate "Truth" is up to God. This is allows one to live at peace with oneself despite ignorance and imperfection. Recognizing the infinity of God avoids the temptation to explore every rabbit hole of knowledge.

      In order to make this more palpable to humans, a "Master" figure is invented. Someone so perfect that this humility before the master is considered a virtue. This figure, more of an idea really, is colloquially termed "God". Understanding God is similar to understanding Infinity

      I.e. diversity is about "seeing god in all its forms" rather than wanting to *be* godlike or have some sort of privileged association with god.
