With such a stark view, why do you even care to post it here? Your message offers no hope for yourself or humanity, so why bother?

Seems like you're searching for discussion on this topic. Not necessarily to be proven wrong, but to test this belief of yours. Hope you continue to test your logic.

It's actually a bit refreshing to see young people question their existence. The arrival at nihilism is a good step. It doesn't take long to realize that the evidence is overwhelming that nihilism is absurd. There is no way that random colllisions of matter and energy could create self awareness, emotions, and an ingrained sense of morality. You're on your way - probably Deism will be next.

Life is what you make it. Que the 'no morality without god' nonsense.

In an infinite universe, this is actually almost a certainty that this would happen eventually. Only took 13 billion years.

This is a form of humanism. This set of beliefs has very ill-defined borders, but basically places the individual at the center of a nebulous belief system. it has no practical application or real substance. It merely kicks the can down the road on questions of existence, morality, and the meaning of life.

Lol. Not hardly!

Look if we're just random interactions of mass and energy, then NOTHING matters. Search your heart and desires. Do you really think all that the things that encompass YOU are meaningless collections of energy?

So why do you get so bent out of shape about shite on the poli board? You seem to care quite a lot about all this meaningless stuff. I think you're just trying to act deep and ironic, but that's just me.

"Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things that a man needs to believe in the most: that people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love, true love, never dies... No matter if they're true or not, a man should believe in those things because those are the things worth believing in."

I am a drunk and drug addict and that was pretty much my belief system. (not implying you are either of those) i do the 12 steps and that has given value to my life I think mostly bc it's about helping others in there and looking at how shitty we really are. So, even if I'm deluding myself I really don't care, bc I ain't gotta drink or toot today, and that makes me happy.
