          Sounds like it could be. In drugged out bliss and thrall to a god in its domain. No change, no learning…nothing except stasis until the end of time.

            At least in Christian theology, that’s not heaven. Heaven will generally be like earth but without the bad stuff.

                    Accelerationism is a range of ideologies that call for the use of processes such as capitalism and technological change in order to create radical social transformations.

                    Right-wing extremists such as neo-fascists, neo-Nazis, white nationalists and white supremacists have used the term to refer to an acceleration of racial conflict through assassinations, murders and terrorist attacks as a means to violently achieve a white ethnostate.

                    What has this got to do with Christian Theology 😭

            It always sounded awful. But I don’t even think it’s that, because as far as I’m concerned, if god is anything besides made up, there’s no way it doesn’t just slowly consume souls of the dead.

            Easy food, just subsist off the faithful and keep the train going for thousands of years with infighting and a strong drive to proselytize non-believers. Some kind of cosmic horror shit or something, gotta be.

            Edit: But to be clear, I’m not trying to imply anyone following this or other religions is wrong or anything, or that I actually believe this (I’m in the “it’s made up” camp), I just think cosmic horror is neat and love overthinking :3
