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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  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)

You're trying to corporealize a concept that is fundamentally non-corporeal. An omnipotent being could make eternal suffering mean suffering eternally simply by virtue of being all-powerful. The means by which this is done is (would be) completely beyond our understanding or even able to be conceived by our current understanding of the world.

.... no, that's your interpretation of what I said. I asked a straight forward question and you put your own spin on it.
