Topic: What do you think? | |
---|---|
If you would get certain proof that there is somebody above, who is watching for your each and every move and act, would you do something differently? Would it change the way you live your life?

No.
Always believe in yourself and accept who you are. Love yourself. |

You mean like God, not sure if you mean that to be honest, but if you do,
I believe there is something anyway, not sure about a god, but something, maybe an afterlife. I wouldn't change my life because without sounding like I'm up my own A$$ I live my life as peacefully and respectfully towards others as possible, at least I think I do. If someone was to point out that I was An A$$hole at times then I'd work on it, in fact I have done a few years ago. So my answer is no. Having said all that, I've probably misunderstood your question in the first place |

If you would get certain proof that there is somebody above, who is watching for your each and every move and act, would you do something differently? Would it change the way you live your life? As there is no proof and never will be, I would say NO, I would rather rely on me fully than a fairytale some of the time. I will take the glory but I will also take the blame. Myself. |

think about what

interesting, there has never been a time I remember when I did not know that others were watching
I already try to live life in a way that reflects Gods love and discipline I already try to live life in a way that would make my ancestors and my family proud |

No, I would not do things differently. With that said, when I do see something in my character or life that needs changing, I do so because it feels right in my heart to do so...not because my Higher Power/Creator is watching me. |

I do believe in Source but Source won't ever interfere with what you do or don't do. It is our birthright to have freedom of will and freedom of choice. Higher beings (angels, Arch Angels, Ascended Masters etc.) aren't allowed to interfere either unless you ask them for help or guidance.
Source won't judge either. You have to learn the lessons by making the right or wrong choices, which makes 'wrong' choices right choices as they offer you the chance to learn and grow. So whether Source is watching you or not doesn't matter all that much with regard of doing things differently. You still have to make your choices in life. Source is also not something outside of you, not like some daunting entity in heaven looking down upon you to judge. We are all part of Source ourselves. We aren't separate. |

If somebody above meant God, then I would not change a thing because I have always believed in God. But if somebody above meant like a drone that might strike me dead if I did anything wrong... then I would never do anything to upset that darn drone or whoever is operating that darn drone... may that darn drone malfunction and backfires. interesting topic, sip |

It seem to me that it is impossible by definition to prove that there is an invisible unknowable (not unknowable because gods are clever, but because gods are infinite, and finite beings CANNOT conceive of infinite ones) being or power observing everyone.
Quite aside from that, I commend another bit of logic for consideration: IF there is a god, and IF that god knows all and sees all (as all modern gods are said to do), then it is not possible to FOOL such a god, by putting on a show of belief. Since it is not possible to FOOL a god, there is no logical reason to try to do so. All the modern gods I have heard of, are said to judge a person by their inner being, their soul. Not by outward games or costumes. Therefore finally, only one way of leading one's life makes sense: live according to your PERSONAL sense of honor. If the god in question will decide your fate by your soul, trying to fool them, or please them artificially will just cause you trouble. In a way, therefore, it is the ultimate act of true faith, to NOT THINK about what a god might wish you to do. |

Of course. All new information changes behavior to some degree. Any change perpetuates further change. Not to mention, tons of experiments and works (factional and fictional) on behavior changing when people don't know they're being watched, switch to knowing they're being watched; by family, authority figures, random people, spouses. Would it change the way you live your life?
Probably. To what degree and how will kinda depend on what that certain proof is. I mean I will change my behavior, and change the way I live my life differently between the proof of: - A near death experience and I think I see "somebody above." - "Somebody above" coming down in a hail of fire during my commute home, 10 stories tall and laser beam shooting eyes, demanding behavioral changes. - magic knowledge entering my head remaking reality so I don't know the previous reality and simply accept the new reality with "somebody above" in it. Other than that, it depends on who that "somebody above" turns out to be, which would influence knowledge of consequences. Jesus, god, allah, krishna, odin, zeus, spaghetti monster, super big bird, big tub of energy that doesn't do anything but can be exploited, technologically advanced voyeuristic aliens with an agenda... Even if it wasn't me that was given the proof, but someone else, their change in behavior would ultimately change and influence my behavior and how I lived my life. |

If you would get certain proof that there is somebody above, who is watching for your each and every move and act, would you do something differently? Would it change the way you live your life? I don't need any proofs to Believe in God's existence. I have been born and raised by my parents with faith and have grown up in a society where people mostly have faith in our Creator. I believe that God sees everything even right through our hearts and minds. We don't need to pretend or change who we are. God loves us for who we are and what we are. God is forgiving. We are only humans and born to make mistakes yet we shouldn't abuse the life given to us to do whatever we want to do even if it's wrong. Live your life accordingly. We may commit mistakes as we are not perfect, but being conscientious we could somehow walk with the ways of God. |

Whatever made you think we are not being watched from above. More seriously, I think of the words, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." as a good guide in my life, it was the way I was brought up within a religious family. |
