M4F 35 | Looking for a company to go to pubs together

I’m looking for someone who would be interested in going out to pubs, dance, chill and escape from this matrix on weekends. Expecting nothing else. I’m just looking for platonic friendships where we can mutually benefit from hitting the dance floor. I don’t wanna making it sound one-dimensional, i would be there for coffee dates, movie nights, or as a safe space to vent. If you are up for it, let’s chat and see if it works.

35M looking for friends who are as boring as me

I have been going through a lot of posts here in this sub. I read them having lot of interests, hobbies and activities, like gaming, and stuffs. This inhibits me from initiating a conversation. I feel like I’m so boring. I don’t have any hobbies. I don’t have much interests that are interesting. The little time I get is spend mostly brooding, movies, or doomscrolling. I’m introverted, and a bit awkward. I have friends but they are all busy, we get to meet each other only after appointments. I crave some online company, warm and emotional, where we can chat on random things, vent out, or even have deep conversations. That’s that then.

If ancient scriptures contained advanced science, why didn’t they help us discover medicine earlier?

Whenever there is a post on scientific discoveries or discussions, there will be comments saying, “It was already mentioned in the Quran,” or “The Vedas explained this thousands of years ago.”

But if that’s true, shouldn’t humanity have benefited from that knowledge long before modern science?

Homo sapiens, the humans, have existed for nearly 300,000 years. Yet almost every major advancements in medicine and physics happened in the last few centuries.

Vaccines, antibiotics, organ transplants, medical imaging, cancer research, discovery planets, galaxies, black holes, superclusters. None of these came from ancient scriptures. They came from observation, experimentation, failure, and repeating the process until the evidence held up.

If a sacred text truly contained advanced scientific knowledge in a clear and practical way, why didn’t it lead people to discover bacteria before microscopes, or neutron star before telescope?

Why didn’t it help stop plague outbreaks? Why wasn’t there a method to prevent smallpox, treat tuberculosis or something even better for human living standards? Most importantly why did God have to create the diseases in the first place, if they loved humans?

These scientific miracles are identified only after science has already made the discovery. The verses are then reinterpreted to fit what we now know.

If scriptures already contained modern science, or if God existed, then where was that knowledge 300,000 years ago?

Why is there no Dinosaur God?

Across civilisations, there were various humanoid gods, demigods, and deities - Gods with the heads of jackals, birds, elephants, and other animals. But we have never seen a god with a dinosaur head. In no legends, myths, or religions have we ever heard of such gods. The closest we have are dragons, which are magical and mythical in East Asian and European mythologies. If gods created everything, we should have at least had a dinosaur-headed god. If not, at least a mammoth-headed god. We had all forms of humanoid gods, but not dinosaurs. If gods existed even before Earth, as said by many religions, we deserved a dinosaur god.

Who Decided These Gods Became Demons?

Have you ever noticed that many demons today were once the names of gods worshipped by entire civilizations?

I’m not talking about the most important deities in the ancient world, worshipped across Canaan (Levant countries), and Mesopotamia for millennia, long before Christianity or Islam existed.

1. Baal.
Today, many people know the name through demonology as Bael, one of the kings of Hell. But Baal wasn’t originally a demon. “Baal” simply meant “Lord.” He was the Canaanite god of rain, storms, fertility, and agriculture. For farming communities, rain meant survival. People prayed to Baal because they believed he brought the rains that kept crops alive.

  1. Baal-Zebub
    Then there’s Baal-Zebub, the god worshipped at Ekron. By the time you reach the New Testament, the name has become Beelzebub, the “prince of demons.” Later Christian tradition even identified him with Satan.

  2. Astarte
    Astarte was one of the most revered goddesses of the ancient Near East. She represented love, fertility, motherhood, sexuality, and war. Her worship spread across Phoenicia and Canaan and influenced many neighboring cultures. Centuries later, medieval Christian demonology transformed her into Astaroth, a male demon and one of the dukes of Hell.

  3. Moloch
    Moloch is another famous example. His original identity is still debated by scholars. Some believe he was a deity, while others argue the name referred to a type of sacrifice. Either way, later Christian literature turned Moloch into one of the great demons of Hell.

As Judaism developed exclusive monotheism and Christianity later spread across the Roman world, existing gods were reinterpreted as false gods, idols, or even demons. Early Christian writers like Justin Martyr, Tertullian, and Augustine openly argued that the gods worshipped by Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and Canaanites were actually demons deceiving humanity.

It’s an effective way to replace an existing religion.

These names we now associate with demons once belonged to deities who symbolized rain, harvests, motherhood, love, kingship, and protection for millions of people across the ancient world.

If Hinduism had similarly disappeared, would names like Shiva, Kali or Ganapathi be remembered today as gods or would they be listing them among the demons of Hell?

It also makes you question - Were indigenous deities and spirits like Chathan, Yakshi and Rakshas reinterpreted by brahmanical Hinduism as more dangerous or subordinate?

This is why I think we should not treat religious descriptions of God as truth.

Need genuine reviews about "Oppam"

I want to know if anyone has tried with Oppam online therapy.

I am seriously considering re-starting my therapy. Life has become too difficult for me. I have started procrastinating a lot lately. I'm also experiencing random panic attacks. Not the intensive ones. but I can feel the anxiety build up, and heavy breathing that follows.

The doctor I had planned to see, through a reference, is on medical leave. He would not be resuming consultation till August. I don't think I can wait that long.

The news about the recent family suicide is also kind of pushing me. I don't know if you can understand when I say this - I feel motivated to do the act. But, I know I can't do that, so I'm conflicted but safe.

Then I came across Oppam. I don't know if online therapies help that much. Seeking genuine suggestions, reviews and feedbacks.

Has Therapy helped anyone?

Has anyone truly recovered from mental health issues like depression, stress and trauma? I'm unable to commit to a therapist or psychiatrist. I feel distant, and fake meeting a handful of therapists in Kochi. "Fake" doesn't mean they are faking their job, but I have this pre-conceived notion that they are just talking artificially to validate me and help me. Would they give the same explanations and advice if I meant something to them really.

Back to the question. I have not many anyone who is cured from their mental health issues. Many dropped off, many still visits even when there is no evident change in them. Or, it could be just my circle of friends, who are not able to keep up timely consultations.

Is there anyone out there who can say, they are cured or at least, are in control of their issues/disorder?

Why Indians including Malayalis lack Manners and Etiquette?

We are generally very rude.

A service provider doesn’t know how to talk with their customers politely. And If they are in a public department, don’t expect any courtesy from most of these people.

Even the attitude of the harithasena is sometimes questionable.

The auto drivers, bus conductor. Everyone seem to lack basic manners and etiquette while communicating with a stranger. Most Uber taxi dudes are polite though.

You can see this cultural difference when you visit abroad.

This is a failure of education system. People usually don’t want to enact what they learnt at school in their daily lives. Or we are not teaching our kids better.

There are places where people actually show politeness, but they are inly because their organisation demand them to.
