Thread: There is No Reason

There is no reason to live.

There is no reason to be born.

Dreams are a blessing.

Thoughts are illusory.

Life is simple.

Language is complex.

Death holds all answers and absolute confusion.

Bid adieau.

I guess it's kind of nice, to me there are some truths there; others are too blunt. But I disagree that life holds no reason, because life is the reason to live.

Well it's true, there is no meaning to life at all. We're merely constructs of chemicals and complex cell structures.

There's no meaning to chairs and tables at all. They are merely constructs of wood and perhaps other kinds of useless material. See what I'm implying?

I agree on most of it though life does have it's own purpose, we were all built to survive. It may not be the most greatest story like some religions say but it's a simple purpose.

Ofcourse you could alway deduce that to not have a purpose in it's self.

Our purpose is to find a purpose.
No one ever created us, and we don't HAVE to do anything (not even dying).
You have to add purpose to your own life.

And if your purpose is nagging about the fact that there is no purpose, well, good luck and have fun with that. Stopping you isn't my purpose.

That I'm right?

Scientifically, there is no reason or meaning. Naturewise, we have to reproduce. In human thinking, we have to make the best of our lives and enjoy our selfs.

Science and nature unite as the same thing. How is there no meaning, scientifically?

I said tables and chairs and no meaning because of what they were made of, but you can see that that is exactly what their meaning is from! Would you make a chair out of "H_2 0"? That would be useless; meaningless.

Yeah I also don't understand why you think death holds confusion, or answers.

Inless ofcourse you have a diffrent view of death, I for one think it is like how it was before I was born.

The universe is mute and offers us no answers but we can make meaning in our lives.

The rest didn't make much sense.

I agree!

Woop woop!

You like the idea of existentialism then? I only looked into it recently, I agree with the general idea. I don't agree with most of what Kierkegaard said though. In my opinion he was really flawed. One of the ideas key to existentialism is that the individual is totally free, including freedom from pointless establishments. Another of the key ideas is that there is no meaning in the universe. However Kierkegaard tried to justify his belief in the Christian God and Church, which in my opinion goes completely against both of those ideas. Also he supported other silly notions such as subjective truth, and his 'leap of faith' principle... bleh. So yeah, I like existentialism, but Kierkegaard had it all wrong.
