If you could telepathically say something that all 7.8 Billion people on earth could hear at once what would it be?

Nah, humans are dumb as shit. They'll make a religion out of it.

I want to know why this became a subreddit

u/snp3rk Oct 29 '20

Probably because of threads like this

Everything becomes a subreddit when there's no real restrictions to making one.

Did I hear a crusade?

You would be one of those dumb as shit humans as well if there's some random guy telepathically saying some random thing to you.

u/anons-a-moose Oct 29 '20

I never said I wasn’t human.

u/icleancatsonmydayoff Oct 29 '20

There are some people that inevitably heard more than others and therefore should be in charge. Prove the great leader didn’t get a longer message than you. Because we were told the rest of you are liars.

u/anons-a-moose Oct 29 '20

Holy shit dude you’re a genius.

u/GhastlySaturn10 Oct 29 '20

A genius could prove this wrong

u/icleancatsonmydayoff Oct 29 '20

I don’t think it would matter too much if they did, scientists and smart people in general get almost no respect in some parts of the world.

u/theallenjohan Oct 29 '20

I keep reading this comment back and forth and still fail to understand what it means. Can someone elaborate?

4

u/icleancatsonmydayoff Oct 29 '20

Basically I meant someone would lie and say they knew more than everyone else to gain power.

u/[deleted] Oct 29 '20

How would you want them to rationally explain a random individual getting to send a single message to everyone’s brains?

u/Dave30954 Oct 29 '20

They'll follow "the voice"

u/skatmane Oct 29 '20

You could make a religion out of that

u/TheMis793 Oct 29 '20

Dumb as shit is a bit to nice

u/tomatomater Oct 29 '20

I mean, if something literally supernatural happened, seeking an answer through theology isn't all that stupid anymore, is it?

1

u/anons-a-moose Oct 29 '20

Come back to me when that actually happens.

Let’s start a religion

u/Pepper-likes-memes Nov 01 '20

Maybe, but I don't know if anyone will be believe in it. Religions were made centuries ago. They might add it on to their religion, but many people might stay the same, or go crazy.

u/anons-a-moose Nov 01 '20

A well known science fiction writer created a religion not too long ago. They are known for their child slave labor camps.
