In this post, you suggest that -you- assigned reality a task.

Yes, I did - the task is to "change to create utopia".
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

But that change requires things to happen naturally. So it isn't a change at all. It's the equivalent of you giving an ice cube the task to melt, but that melting requiring the normal amount of time and for it to be hotter than freezing temperature. "I told it to happen, but of course it has to go through the natural process of it". You aren't changing anything.

What are you talking about? I just melted the ice cube. That's considered a change.

But -you- didn't do it. It would have melted whether or not you wanted it to, given the situation it was in. You did not cause the change. You did not set it about the task of melting.

There's no difference between the two situations. Either way, you have a melted ice cube, so they can be used completely interchangeably.

You aren't making me breathe, because you have no connection with me breathing. I have a connection with the correct path - the correct path changes the world. If you have a connection with the sun that melts the ice cube, you can claim credit for the ice cube(for instance, say there is a person with the ability to make a fireball hover in midair, and the fireball melts the ice cube - that ice cube was melted by that peson).

I do have a connection with you breathing. I play Mafia on Mafiascum. So do you. You are the one who's brain causes you to breathe. Look at that, a connection.

That's not a connection, just a coincidence or correlation.

Prove the correct path is correct. Prove you are connected to it. Prove it is changing anything. Prove you can assign tasks to reality. Prove you are above reality in such a way that saying something doesn't mean you said something.

1) Self-evident.
2) I follow it.
3) it has the highest authority.
4) I am connected to the correct path.
5) What does this mean? I never claimed this.

I can call something correct without it being correct. You could be too. Prove that the path you call the correct path is correct. Prove it has the highest authority. Prove that being connected to it somehow changes your connection to reality.

Also, yes, you claimed that you saying you are god doesn't mean you said you are god.

The correct path is akin to the author of a story. JK Rowling doesn't have any direct impact on the Harry Potter universe - she doesn't show up in person and cast spells. But it is because of Rowling that Voldemort's defeat is inevitable.
this doesnt really make any sense

you havent proven anything has changed
Because last time I was wrong and now I'm 100% correct. Last time, I didn't even have the backing of the correct path.

But it's easy to resolve this. http://predictionbook.com/predictions/181641 Technically the prediction is forever, but the site requires me to set an end date, so I chose 50 years - if, before that time, I change my views about utopia, you may be proven correct about this.
but the thing is, beforehand you also thought you were 100% correct. This time you're just projecting your ideals to a greater scale than they actually are and nothing else.

It's not. This is an evidenceless statement. The correct path will impose itself on reality because it has the authority to command reality to bend to accomodate it.
you need to back that up

I just realized Accountant is like the child of Plato (His "ideals are reality" mindset) and Hobbes (We have no rights given to us naturally, we give up rights to our government in exchange for our lives, and all laws are just by definition because just is defined by the ruler / state.)
I prefer they, thanks :)

ie. I'm incorruptible, and the dictator is way more righteous than me, so the dictator is incorruptible. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Also, since I know I'm right, I don't need proof. Proof is for people like you. For a righteous person with convictions, it is unecessary.
