>sculptures that are made will never become alive

>paintings that are drawn will never become alive

>cartoons that are drawn will never become alive

>robots that we make will never become alive

Maybe a stupid and useless thread, but I just wanted to tell my feels. I was just thinking and got somewhat sad and depressed that we cannot create truly alive beings. Sculptures that we make are inanimate. Paintings that we paint are merely on the leather on which we draw. Cartoons that we draw are voiced and moved by us. Robots that we make are only programed to do what we desire. We are merely puppetmasters.

Sorry if I disturbed or annoyed you with my thread. I just feel sad by the feeling that everything that we create, all of our creation is and shall remain soulless and dead.

And no, marriage and children dont count.

>Been excited for spiritual gifts for years now

>Wanting to walk on water, never dissuaded by failure

>Sometimes remember that not even the apostles could always do it, but still keep myself at it

I really wanted the gift of prophesy, but if I could get the gift of life or water walking, that's cool too.

If only more Christians believed.

1 Corinthians 14:1Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy

Because…?


804526 No.543557

>>543555

Because I mean art that we make by our own hand and minds and not reproduction, that even animals can do.

>tfw Thor, Santa, Easter Bunny, Buddha and Pele aren't real

>tfw you'll never make videogame universes real

>tfw heroism and art dies off in the world to come because Jesus is the hero for all eternity and all art is now considered idolatry.

Such a sad world that Satan kiked up with his pridefaggotry

Well OP, you might be right, but your premises don’t really lead to your conclusion. Art was never meant to be ‘alive’, the mechanical processes are completely different to life and obviously no one expected any different. You can use your hands to create human life the same way you can use human hands to apply paint to a canvas, the same way you can modify genes, the same way you can use a firearm to take life. Whether or not AI could be alive is a more profound issue, and perhaps related to God and metaphysical things, but the non-aliveness of sculpture and painting absolutely not.

Sounds like you want to be a god.

fuck outta here with your prideful ass

Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

There is no god besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal, and no one can deliver out of my hand.

Ultimately, all the vain want for other gods stems from a false god and human desires.

The false god being a person's thoughts and the desire is "I want you, Do this".

Another desire is for the world to be more fantastic then it actually is, such as wanting Santa Claus to be at the north pole, Zeus at Olympus, Pele at Kilauea, and being able to cast lifestream magic using your car's gasoline tank.

Blessed are the timid hearts that evil hate,

that quail in its shadow, and yet shut the gate;

that seek no parley, and in guarded room,

through small and bare, upon a clumsy loom

weave rissues gilded by the far-off day

hoped and believed in under Shadow's sway.

Can you actually point to a bible verse or church father that says anything about OPs situation or?


cd22df No.544226

>>544222

I'm OP and I remember a verse saying this. Its in 1 Kings 2:6, I believe. So far the only church father I headed about saying about this was John of Damascus.

So yeah, the have some point (except for that rude cretin)
