The idea of an omniscient god being stupid is contradictory.

i think schizophrenia has a lot to do with how certain people process meaning. sometimes meaning and syntax can get mixed up or you start relating perhaps multiple different meanings to things simultaneously. this happens to me a lot, but i've never been classified as "schizo". i also think there are different degrees or intensity to this, and perhaps the more intense the meaning-scrambling mechanisms, the closer to "schizo" you are labeled. perhaps

schizophrenia is just a word. what it's describing is an extremely divergent form of thought-processing and meaning-assembly which is expressed as nonsensical gibber jabber. the thing is tho these "schizos" seem to understand themselves, although no one can understand them. i sincerely believe they live in another dimension of reality, and we can see them because they exist on the same physical wavelength, but on a very different mental wavelength.

they can stabilize down to consensus-level mental wavelength (alpha?) with drugs and mood stabilizers n shit, but hey we use drugs to change our mental wavelengths all the time anyway


Schizophrenia is pretty simple. Certain people have a dopamine reward system that is faulty in that in gives rewards for thoughts that are not actually conducive to one's well-being. We all get a dopamine reward when we have a thought and act on it and it turns out to be good for us and then we have the same thought again- our minds want us to stay focused on whatever that thought is that will result in a positive action. Somehow in schizophrenics this system is just screwed up so that they get the reward at the wrong times. That is why the disease is progressive, because it starts out as small rewards for minor delusions, but over time, with continued focus on delusional thought patterns, it becomes large rewards for highly delusional thoughts

At first sight, The Perfection of Wisdom is bewildering, full of paradox and apparent irrationality.

yeah you can see how rational thought works out for all the people that have a 3rd person narrative in their brain they don't actually control

the one on the left is schizo the one on the right is a upstanding citizen who takes their pills daily and used to be schizo
