A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

If you spent eternity in a fiery pit wouldn't you just get use to being in a fiery pit? (lemmy.world)

I think if Christians advertised no after life as punishment some might find it a pleasant thought. To stop existing... there is no fear in it. It's our drive for survival that created fear. There is no sorrow in it there is no need for sorrow or happiness because nothingness doesn't have chemical fueled emotions.
