Welcome to Gaia! ::

u know everything if u know u know nothing, no one on earth will know the meaning of life, i think the meaning of life is to prepare ourselves for our eternal life, to death is the beginning of life , this life is made as a test that everyone is failing horribly, during the last minutes of this test u get to go back and change ur answers and hope u pass
RizaMustang24 made an awesome point and i support her theory highly

You ask a profound question and then seek to downplay the question's significance. It sounds like you are conflicted by your strongly held beliefs concerning our nature (as mere animals) and our self-consciousness (which you seem to reduce to "logic").

I don't think anyone would disagree that the biological purpose or meaning of life is to procreate and then die when the moment presents itself. That is what animals do, be they insects or mammals. Our biological form is determined by the need to survive long enough to procreate.

We are not logical beings. Though we do have the ability to exercise what we call logic. But logic is just a tool. When a chimpanzee uses a stick to get bugs out of a tree to eat, he (or she) is using logic. But that can also just be considered behavioral evolution.

The kind of logic you're referring to is the questioning of our existence. While evolution was necessary to endow us with brains capable of such thoughts, it is not mere behavior. Our self-consciousness indicates that we are something special and different. I can't prove to you that it means we have "souls" any more than you can prove it's just a result of evolution. But your belief that self-consciousness is completely rooted in the physical world is not based in logic, just pure belief.

Your fatalist assumption that we're just animals belies your entire question.

Concerning your version of existence, you ask why "people are unwilling to accept this as true?" Your answer is that we constantly delude ourselves. But that is not enough. I agree that we continually act and think in ways to obscure the acceptance of "truth". But I disagree that we would all otherwise accept your way of thinking.

If we are to define existence and meaning of life only by the bounds of the physical world, then your conclusion is natural and quite "logical". But in so doing, you must treat the thinker(yourself) as an objective outsider whose own reason for asking the question is irrelevant to the answer.

What comfort zone? For people like me, there is none... there was but no longer is there to help us. Sense then I have become nothing but angry and sad and rejected by all. I attempted suicid a few times and I am still here... where the HELL is the comfort in that?

Well, with the whole meaning of life and such is a load of crap (to me), cause it seems like when humans think what is the meaning of life they continue going on with their life causing harm to the planet, the other species inhabbitating the planet and it's giving them no meaning. So, if the plants die, the animals die, if the animals die, we die. But add the global warming, if the ice caps continue melting (it will) we will be under water then the whole planet whipes out. Where would people go? To another planet to kill it aswell. Ok, so even if we didn't have all this factory and cars and stuff, we'd still have global warming, but not for a few thousand years at least. Estimated around a hundred years this place would be gone. There, that's the meaning of our human existance. To kill everything that we can like ignorant scums that we are. neutral

Humans are the only creatures on this planet capable of a higher thinking. why would you wanna kill that off? I would agree that the current state of humanity is vulgar at best. But we aren't the only generation to exist or will ever exist on this planet. A few people may realize the problems with society now. But the entire population needs to recognize the problems first before anything can be done about them. That takes time. look how long it took for racism to be deemed unacceptable.

It wouldn't be such a big problem If it wasn't for the greedy corporations and corrupt governments. They don't want to lose their power and money, so whenever someone actually does something to help change the situation, they throw the situation into chaos. If someone recognizes the problem, the question will be what caused it. They don't want to be exposed.

Everyone is just out to gain something for themselves. No one cares about positively contributing to society or care how their actions affect the world around them. This wasn't an issue 2 or 3 generations ago. So why is it now? Simply because it's a way of thinking that's being promoted by popular culture. If you look at the majority of the problems humanity has at this point in history. They are mostly all caused by a promoted social behavior pattern. The family Unit used to be a fundamental need. So children can be molded by people who are looking in their best interests. People often underestimate the importance of this. When I say molded, you have to realize that children have no understanding of the world around them. They have no real opinion or understanding of right and wrong. These are things they don't learn through words, but through observing the actions of the people around them. And watching how people interact with each other. these fundamental understandings they can carry throughout their lives. They often determine what the child believes and how they live their lives. To them it makes perfect sense, regardless of it's seen as wrong by some. If you look at the statistics the majority of children in the western world come from broken homes. it's very difficult to raise your children if both you and your spouse have to get full time jobs just to put food on the table. So in the end society teaches them what you wanted to but didn't get the opportunity. And you won't know what they've been taught, as the majority of it isn't in actual words. That's why they call it the nanny country. All built around the Idea that if you can mold the children, you can shape them to be perfectly compliant little citizens who will accept any moral changes or changes in fundamental social thinking without question. Who would be more than happy to live their lives and let things fall apart around their ears. As long as a piece of the rubble doesn't hit them, why should they care?

The problems go deeper than "people are simply ignorant" stare
