So what is The opposite of Humanity?

humanity is an idea, meaning it cant be quantified. Also wanna point out that death is not the opposite of life.

You are right I guess but would you care to elaborate a bit more?

Death is the opposite of birth. What we call life is just a function of the universe, like radiation, or gravity.

Ok thanks that makes sense.

well wouldent conception technically be the opposite of death?

not quite. its essentially whenever the subject is brought into existence. in terms of humans, you could argue any time between conception and birth. but i see where you are going with that.

Here's the ultimate question, OP: What is the opposite of a paradox? ;)

Humanity is a rope not an end of it. Also these are called spectrums.
>>
>>16936209
Dark is the absence of light.
You can't add dark, only remove light.
Cold is the absence of heat.
You can't add cold, only remove heat.

Old and young are just characteristics applied to something and are just relative.

Dead and alive are just on and off. Functional or not. Those are the only two that truly have two sides of a coin.

It's all about your perception. How you were taught to perceive, or inherently are wired to perceive.

Humanity is an idea, doesn't have an opposite that can be quantified. You can have an opposite of certain characteristics, but humanity as a whole is a group of subsets and unique characteristics.

What humanity means and how it's actually portrayed in the world.
>>
>So what is The opposite of Humanity?

Male society is conducted during the day - female society would be conducted during the night.

Male society is obsessed with life, and getting ahead in it - female society is obsessed with death, and killing seeds before they grow.

Male society is obsessed with youth - female society is obsessed with antiquity.

From all of this, we can infer that males are associated with a high temperature, and females are associated with a low temperature.

Consider ants, bees and wasps. Often active at night, and wasps inject their fertilized eggs into the larvae (Children) of ants and bees. The societies of these animals revolve around the queen, and notably every single ant, bee and wasp on Earth is cold-blooded.

The sacred union of male and female is required to fertilize the eggs, and warm the insects every morning. Female *must* intake male. You're a hermaphroditic fusion of Yin and Yang.

As commonly mentioned, there have never been any matriarchies. Heaven is opposite of Earth; Heaven is Dark, Dead, Masculine, Old and Cold. Earth is Light, Alive, Feminine, Youthful and Hot.

On Earth, women obey men - in Heaven, men obey women. Thus, the opposite of humanity is feminine divinity - goddesses.

This is what I believe.

A duality of things is a funny game your ego plays because it's only capable of observing in terms of what it exists and what does not, which is dependent on sensory input through our body, but the ego is only a complex thought.

Humanity is an idea but in truth we are a function by which the universe attempts to become self aware to sustain itself infinitely, since information cannot be destroyed and we have ourselves become self aware we are all individual information processors scurrying around trying our best to sustain this form and multiply, then we gathered around a fire with others like us in wonder of this process.

Although we can imagine whatever we want about the universe, and explore and test it to see how it ticks, we already know this process exists, that we are a part of it, and that is a good thing, it's a lot better than nothing.

Since there is something rather than nothing, there must always be something rather than nothing. And it was so.

The opposite of humanity would have to be what Satan tried to achieve with Nephilim and the soon to be Antichrist. He couldn't create life on his own so he perverted what already exists in an attempt to have his own creation. So in essence the opposite of humanity is impossible. We are a paradox

progress is an abstract concept.

no, but now i do alittle.
appearance isn't necessarily earthly, it is what appear.
progress is an inevitable process, as well as an abstract concept. there are many different ways to look at this
>>
>>16944798
i see you are misunderstanding why i meant by "earthly."everything you can see is earthly.
the tangible world. that is what women are obsessed with. nice clothes, their own looks, and their families.

where as men are obsessed with ideas, the invisible world. men seek progress, for example to make money for their loved ones. what they are focused on is not necessarily their family exactly, but rather their own sense of duty. honor, loyalty... etc. that's why you'll find women have no interest in honor, it is nothing to them. they cannot see it.

Consider it a koan about duality. Specifically, how any given object can be defined both as a Yin object and a Yang object. This would of course be the source of my claim that the reader is a hermaphroditic fusion of Yin and Yang.

The desire for clear distinctions is the source of duality, and the point is that these don't exist. Up and down are relative - masculinity and femininity are relative. Climbing to the summit of life is unsatisfying because without context, the summit becomes the literal new baseline - you can't admire the mountain from it's summit.

All too often, we take a male perspective. I don't mean that in a feminist way - sincerely try to see things from a female perspective. Firstly, you can't see the summit - a woman has never looked at herself and wanted to climb to the peak. Her heterosexuality is created because to her, a man is the mountain - there's nothing else to climb.

In other words, to a man, the self is Yang and the woman is Yin. To a woman, the self is also Yang and the man is Yin. Your Yin is her Yang, and your Yang is her Yin. Men and women, funnily enough, aren't different at all - and it's that similarity that allows them to see the other as alien, and thus delude the other that Brahman isn't looking out of both sets of eyes.

This is massive spiritual education, and a fine demonstration of what I'm talking about.

i knew someone would say the cat thing. don't be silly.

the opposite of -1 is surely 1. you are saying that the opposite of -1 is also 0? and the opposite or 1 is 0 as well. nonsense.

black holes... please. not even a confirmed phenomenon, pure theory.

i'm sorry to say things are not so black and white. but it would be nice.
>>
>>16947137
Yes the opposite of a dog is a cat the simple fact that you even recognized it as a potential answer from someone makes it that much more so think about it metaphysically we have built it up as a meme not just an internet meme but as a cultural meme that engulfs the whole of the human race. And why can it not be if its the opposite of zero its anything with a value even if its a negative value that's still the opposite of zero. And what the hell isn't theory I mean sure we could get a little more technical and say the opposite of a planet is just pure blank space. And I'm afraid to say this but every thing is black and white if you make the effort to force it into those set parameters

my ability to imagine possible answers is not suggestive of anything other than my understanding of people. it is the most obvious and funny answer, that's all.

a dog is similar to a cat in almost every way. i have a dog and cats, right now they are all sleeping. that suggests opposite natures to you?


when it comes to numbers there are clear opposites. -1 is the opposite of 1, -2 goes with 2, etc. this doesn't work with the number 0.

we don't even know what a black hole is so you suggesting it being the opposite of anything just shows how desperate you are to prove duality is real.

i'm trying to help you here, man. you're making a mistake. i just realized that there may be an opposite to 0, if such a thing as "infinity" exists. however, this does not mean that duality is the rule.

there are many opposites, but many things stand alone. as i've stated, duality is an oversimplification of things.

>Everything in the world seems to be two ends of the same rope.
We know from OP testimony that there is at least one person in the world that sees a duality to the world. We also know, from experience, that OP is always a faggot. Googling "incidence rate of homosexuality" (and skipping ads) leads us to the following Wikipedia article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_sexual_orientation#Top_cities
As we can see, homosexuality tops out at about 15% of the population for the gayest cities. Taking the worst case scenario imaginable, 15% of the entire world population (humanity) seems to think in dualistic terms. The remaining 85% go unaccounted for, leaving us with an image of humanity that's split 17:3 against dualism. Taking the polar opposite of that ratio, ie., the multiplicative inverse, we have:

- 85% dualism
- 15% unknown

If you can find a species with philosophical traits like that, you'll have your opposite of humanity, faggot.
