By the way, this is Epistemological womanhood, i.e. not so much passively accepting something because of its overwhelming quantity, but deliberately choosing quantity alone merely because it's quantitative. And it's cruelly ironic, since a casual glance at what happens to women, Phenomenally, should caution one against thinking like this.

Truly the ends purported therein are not only worse than the ones most people already enjoy when weighed against the means, they are worse in and of themselves.

>Christians created a god to merely forgive their amoral acts.
Probably true
>Atheist denied god because they fear the power of judment
Probably true for some, but for others objectively false
>Atheism: negation of the negation
Not necessarily; there's a distinction between agnosticism and Gnosticism to be had.

The Problem of Evil is very dishonest. It starts by abasing your Reason and lamenting that "transcendental" answers do not impose themselves onto you. It continues with ignoring the causality of Evil, and the idea that knowledge thereof might alleviate it, insisting on its prima facie and the axiom of its distinction from an otherwise good or at least neutral world and experience thereof. It concludes with more boring lamentation about Evil being inextricable from its witness, thus abasing your faith as well, and making the whole idea of inquiry into the "transcendent" doubly absurd.

>are secretly very unhappy

But extraverts themselves say how miserable they are and how proud they are of it. How they exert themselves for others' gain, how they ignore their better judgement, how they put up with the body's abomination, how they celebrate the catastrophe of nature, how they only fear change inasmuch as it could stop them from wasting themselves. Granted, there could be, and there probably are, several layers of several kinds of misery, but the one they present is miserable enough. To think otherwise is to be even more delirious than an extravert.

One rarely experiences more than a facet of a phenomenon, and, strangely identifying with it at the expense of adjacent facets, never mind its opposing pole, becomes entrenched in his petty possessiveness, arrogantly assuming himself wise, effectively being consumed by it. Rather than presenting the phenomenon to him towards knowing, experience presented him to the phenomenon towards unknowing. Hence the misery of extraversion.
