I'm a male who (in the realm of human-only sex) would want to actually have sexual contact with females only, but likes watching and being watched by both men and women. So what's the term for that?

Heterosexual with a voyeurist fetish?

“You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. If we hung out here for long enough, you’d start remembering everything. But there’s no point to doing that between each life.”
“How many times have I been reincarnated, then?”
“Oh lots. Lots and lots. An in to lots of different lives.” I said. “This time around, you’ll be a Chinese peasant girl in 540 AD.”
“Wait, what?” You stammered. “You’re sending me back in time?”
“Well, I guess technically. Time, as you know it, only exists in your universe. Things are different where I come from.”
“Where you come from?” You said.
“Oh sure,” I explained “I come from somewhere. Somewhere else. And there are others like me. I know you’ll want to know what it’s like there, but honestly you wouldn’t understand.”
“Oh,” you said, a little let down. “But wait. If I get reincarnated to other places in time, I could have interacted with myself at some point.”
“Sure. Happens all the time. And with both lives only aware of their own lifespan you don’t even know it’s happening.”
“So what’s the point of it all?”
“Seriously?” I asked. “Seriously? You’re asking me for the meaning of life? Isn’t that a little stereotypical?”
“Well it’s a reasonable question,” you persisted.
I looked you in the eye. “The meaning of life, the reason I made this whole universe, is for you to mature.”
“You mean mankind? You want us to mature?”
“No, just you. I made this whole universe for you. With each new life you grow and mature and become a larger and greater intellect.”
“Just me? What about everyone else?”
“There is no one else,” I said. “In this universe, there’s just you and me.”
You stared blankly at me. “But all the people on earth…”
“All you. Different incarnations of you.”
“Wait. I’m everyone!?”
“Now you’re getting it,” I said, with a congratulatory slap on the back.
“I’m every human being who ever lived?”
“Or who will ever live, yes.”
“I’m Abraham Lincoln?”
“And you’re John Wilkes Booth, too,” I added.
“I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled.
“And you’re the millions he killed.”
“I’m Jesus?”
“And you’re everyone who followed him.”
You fell silent.
“Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”
You thought for a long time.
“Why?” You asked me. “Why do all this?”
“Because someday, you will become like me. Because that’s what you are. You’re one of my kind. You’re my child.”
“Whoa,” you said, incredulous. “You mean I’m a god?”
“No. Not yet. You’re a fetus. You’re still growing. Once you’ve lived every human life throughout all time, you will have grown enough to be born.”
“So the whole universe,” you said, “it’s just…”
“An egg.” I answered. “Now it’s time for you to move on to your next life.”
And I sent you on your way.



Just a guess.

That's...pretty deep, actually. Well written.

Yes.

I can also see the appeal of doing things his way. Frighten everyone into obeying the law? Ir would be horrible for a while, but eventually people would get used to it. Society would be better off if the person in charge could keep it together.

He would have to be a martyr though, not a self-styled deity.

Lightning Strikes posted...

It's very good, but not one of the best games ever. The gameplay was great fun and really well balanced, as opposed to Tomb Raider (2013) which was the same gameplay balanced in a way that made you far too powerful.

My issues are mainly with the story. The presentation is top notch but the story itself was predictable, and I also did not like the ending. I won't go into spoilers but the dilemma they try to set up does not work.

What do you mean by the dilemma not working?

Are you that detached from human emotion?

Y'all realize that there can be good and bad Muslims and Christians and that it's not a competition... right?

Yes, of course.

Now I'd like you to name known Christian terrorist organizations and what they have done of note, then do the same for Muslims.

See the thing is terrorists have NO basis in religion, but they claim a religious connection anyway. So that's a difference between them.

Spend a year in a Christian country of your choice (just about anywhere in the EU to be honest, for example).

Now spend a year in a Muslim country, maybe Qatar. Qatar is quite spectacular if you don't mind the slavery and all that.

It would have been smarter to bring more than 27 of the 25,000 star destroyers to the Battle of Endor.
