Q: Why are we here?
A: Billions of years ago, a molecule began to make copies of itself. The copies weren't perfect. This caused the copies to vary, and some survived while others didn't.
Q: Why do we have the values, pleasures and pains that we do?
A: They were randomly arising qualities that were correlated with the most surviving ancestral copies.
That's it.
There is no design.
No souls.
No gods.
No unseen spiritual world that will fix all of the miseries in this one.
The idiocy of life is that this highly fecund molecule that we have come to be a product of only cares about making more copies.
What if a copy falsely believes in heaven and thinks a life of torture is worth it to bestow the "gift" of life on another victim? It doesn't matter. The pain and suffering of the copy is irrelevant as long as it makes more copies.
This "game" is beneath the dignity of a thinking and feeling person. Why would anyone who thinks and feels force another to play it?
Right, because Jesus. Or Mohammed.
May an asteroid end this stupid experiment. | |

In any case, I for one believe in heaven and hell. And there are many levels in between...
Our souls do go somewhere- near death experiences talk of a light..
Anyhow, I hope you can find happiness before you leave earth. Cause I'm not sure what's next-
Cursed
He had it all- good looks, a loving family, a car, everything so everybody was kind of left with a big question as what drove him to suicide.
Prob. is, as what i can see, you young people tend to overthink life as it is that you don't get to experience much joy out of living. Life is what you make it, it's up to you what you want to do with it, 99.9% of people don't care, the remaining 1 obviously would be you so instead of trying to conceive the dark secrets of the universe, how about finding new friends first to get you out of that dark hole you're in?
