Law of Attraction is just a modern-day religion
The universe kinda becomes like a god. All that energy and vibe stuff is like a way of praying. It's all about faith, not really backed by evidence.
It's like how I see thunder, so there must be a god of thunder. In this case, seeing vibration and energy (like in String Theory, which still hasn't been proven) makes me think there's gotta be some deeper meaning and that it can make my wishes come true.
And of course, there are people out there selling books, spreading fake news, and posing as manifesting professors just to cash in on others' ignorance.
But hey, for a lot of people, it's just a way to find hope and relax a bit through positive thinking, focusing on their goals and planning things out. So I'm not trying to bash "believers", just sharing a shower thought.
You're viewing a single thread.
Well, that's bullcrap. Science is about finding the truth, religion is about shifting the blame to someone else (and about controlling masses, depends on which side you view this from).Sure, some people believe in string theory. But the moment it's proven wrong, they're gonna stop. Another important difference is that no one thinks it has any meaningful impact on you as a moral human being, while religiots base all their morality on what their fake god has told various goat herders and child rapists centuries and millennia ago.Edit: I was not aware that "Law of Attraction" had some weird bullshit meaning. The fact that attraction basically means gravity in my mother language didn't help matters. And the mention of string theory also made it plausible that the OP was a weird rant about science.
Law of Attraction is a spiritual belief that thinking positively/negatively will affect your life in the same way. It is based on a pseudoscientific explanation that people are made out of energy, and that energy attracts similar energy.
It is not science.
Never heard of that so I assumed it meant something like gravity, I was very confused.
religion is about shifting the blame to someone else
I agree, in this case, the Law of Attraction blames the believers, but somehow people fail to see this and instead think they deserve the misfortune because they haven't 'put in enough energy'.
Sorry for my rant, I thought this was about physics, not some pseudo bullshit, I haven't heard about that thing ever before.
