OK, please bare in mind that I am a lot younger than most of the ppl here I think. But why do you hav this notion that we have to earn our position to be on this earth or else have it taken. A lot of religious "weak people" have advantages over us atheists hevquip. Because of their beleif in the divine, which they have lived with for long enough to convince themselves that it is truly there (god, jesus, alla, whatever), they are walking around with a lot more appreciation of life, like on a big high. At least the religious people I have met anyway. They have much more respect for people than a lot of the ones I grew up with, they give thanks, they don't want to harm living creatures. Religion caused a lot of wars in history but now most of them (or at least roman catholics) are some of the kindest people have met. So what if they die with a wrong idea in their head if it made them lead a better life. And surely if they lead a better life then they have "earned the right to stay alive" more than us two have yet you have completely rejected them. Personally I'd just walk off as if you weren't even there with the gun. Your opinions and beleifs , as far as I'm concerned (because I don't know you), are completely random. So whatever I say may either jeopordise or improve my chances of living. If I just walk off it all depends on whether you have the guts to pull the trigger without being provoked by anything I have said, without knowing me. |

to the following i would say: mariah: seeing that you believe in god (that's how you've come across at least), you shouldn't fear what i'm about to do. (bang!) i dont think one should not quit asking questions such as i have. i think it is necessary and part of human nature as to wonder why we work the way we do and do what we do. the way i see it, if someone loved god enough and had true confidence in their faith, they would be willing to allow me to kill them, believing that what is in the afterlife is better than what they have here. od: i think it is good to work at understanding others because you can gain insight about yourself. if there was no meaning to life though, then it would be a waste of time because there would be no need learn about such insignificant, unimportant people. hedtwin: i would be impressed and offer to tell you a joke. m: i think that anyone can agree that at least the most simple meaning of life would be reproducing so that your progeny can do the same. but the question from that would be "but what is it all good for?", because you think that it would have to lead to something eventually, besides us completely overrunning the planet. (something you believe as i understand) scary bear: i dont exactly have the notion that one has to earn their place, but more of whether or not if people can come up with a reason as to why they are here and what they are to accomplish. i would like to say the following: i only wanted to know if one could come up with answers as to why they are here. i think the answers are subjective and that there will probably never be an objective answer, unless one was to say that the purpose of life was to reproduce, because that is what all living things do (species wise, not necessarily individually). i do not believe i have the power to judge on someones utility or purpose. the only reason used a gun in my example is because if someone threatened to do the same, you'd most likely do what they asked and people dont question their existence enough. |

hevquip - whilst you ask your question, i would take the gun from you and the proceed to shoot you in both shoulders. then as you shake and squirm in confusion on the floor, i'll ask you why you bother, and then before you even answer me, i'll shoot you as many times as i can in the neck. |
