the reason of life...

Started by yerssot7 pages

is that the reason of life? not talking??

why queeq (yes, queeq, not quiiq)

everyone is saying that the reason of life is to make the best out of it, I think that these people COULD (and I use could, because otherwhise I would offend them) think more about it... I mean, if it's that simple, why are a lot of people thinking about it?

Because nobody knows the answer.

Ask yourself: where do I come from? Where am I going? Why am I here?
If you have those answers, this thread is done. But I think that may take a while.

where do I come from? that's known
why am I here is the same as your point in life...
and as far as I heared, there are only 2 "theories" said here...

Try Socrates, Aristotle, Kant, Schopenhauer and a bunch of other guys and you'll get many many more.

Aristotle, did he said anything about that? he did said something about the reality though...

Oh yes, he said things about that. Questions on reality and meaning of life are intertwined of course.

actually I was refering to his "cave"
and yes, they are intertwined... but still the same problem...
so ... what's YOUR opinion about life queeq?

Opinion about life? Basically that it kinda sucks.

because...?
djee! do I have to drag everything out of you?

Well, it's not really great is it. It's a struggle, also an exciting struggle, but still a struggle. Not really a place I'd go for a vacation, if I had the choice.

so do you think life is suffering?

Part of it, yes.

hmmm 50/50 not good enough...

you know what...? I think I'm a boedhist...

You think???? Not very convincing.

I'm not thinking that there are extra lifes after this but still you have to overcome the bad things, the suffering...

Well look at this way yerssot...no matter how bad it sucks out there, you still have us in here !!!!!! 🤣

I wonder if that makes it any better. 😂

Pfft. If you think I haven;t put any thought into this, yerss, then you are WAY wrong. In fact, I would say it was pretentious of you to suggest that our thought in this area was 'insufficient', presumably as compared to your mighty learning in this area.

Oops... you've done it now, yerss.

thanx Gundy,

and Ush, I'm rather sure I've put somewhere that it was my opinion and that I had no reason to insult ANYONE in ANYWAY!
Really!
