however western philosophy took this metaphor to the absolute limit, which some thought was nihilism (red pill) versus existentialism (blue pill), but it is actually absurdism, neither red or blue pill but the limit of our knowledge, the unknowable, the Absurd, but don't let that stop you from asking questions and searching for answers (or meaning) because that too is also an important part of the philosophy of absurdism, basically don't do anything that cuts off critical thinking because that is philosophical suicide. buddhism teaches to be careful when discriminating between the red pill and blue pill. taoism teaches the blue pill and the red pill are interrelated, basically one cannot exist without the other also existing and one can turn into the other. but then life got " too real" thanks to science now distributing red pills and then those who worshipped one god started to take blue pills. those who worshipped many gods were distributing blue pills and those who decided to worship one god were distributing red pills. there are many different ways to interpret the meaning of the red pill and the blue pill but generally speaking (actually roughly speaking) the red pill is whatever brings you down to reality and the blue pill is whatever lifts up your spirit. the way to understand the diagram is to consider the two side represent the metaphor of red pill and blue pill. the other issue is that the attributes of a God can be defined as either (a) anthropomorphic (such as Zeus) or (b) non-anthropomorphic (such as the tao). the first issue is that the concept of a God can be defined as either (a) a philosophical topic not linked to any established religion (such as the Omni-God) or (b) a theological topic linked to an established religion (such as the abrahamic god). also i decided to show the concept of a God in relation to other beliefs.Ĭonfusion about the different ways a God is define comes from two main issues. this chart is basically my attempt to show why it is difficult to define a God. This chart on BELIEF was inspired by a conversation I had in the forums with another person who was confused about the different ways people try and define a God.
