I developed a split personality awhile back, and I would argue with myself out loud. Hell, "he" even had a name. My mind was a mess then, I didn't know what to think, and I ended up making some stupid choices, resultant from my clouded mind.

The split personality was created by two conflicting ideals, morality and nihilism. Both made their share of sense, so I was stuck in the middle for quite awhile. After awhile, I realized that nihilism was not the answer...it was through morality that civilization thrived, nihilism was selfish. Anger, fury and a cold self serving attitude were not the answers. It was then I realized that it was by being selfless, by sacrificing for others, and making others happy, that I would be happy and help to better my own world. So I turned to something to make sure I did not stray from my decided path, and it was then that I looked upon the greatest and most famous self sacrifice of all, that of Jesus Christ.

The Bible says that God is outside of Time and Space. You're trying to understand color when you've been blind from birth.

My own theory is that God exists on Multiple dimensions of time, allowing him to move freely on our half plane.

Just my thought tho.

Had a similar experience. Nihilist side won in my case. ;)
