I like it because it at least addresses questions and concerns that I find important, even if no so-called existentialist thinker resolved those issues to my satisfaction. Albert Camus is one of my favorite existentialists, but I feel that he contradicts himself in the end by creating a story of why we should continue living and fighting the good fight even if we know we are all dead men (as he maintained that we don't need such a story).

thats not a contradiction becuase he affiliates no reasons not to continue "fighting the good fight" - thats the whole point he was making
you think sisyphus cared?

I think he actually does create a story, and thus reasons for continuing to live instead of simply klling oneself, in his acceptance of his particular concept of the Absurd. To kill oneself is to try to escape the relationship that exists between the individual who wants answers and the mute universe which offers him none - which Camus labels a "cowardly" move; which in his view is "bad" or "wrong" (but if the universe is silent on such issues, I must assume that such a belief is the subjective product of Camus - not the objective world in any way. . Thus, in accepting the premise that suicide is an illegitiment action for humans to engage in he, in the process, creates a reason to abstain from it. Just my opinion.

which is exactly why some nihilists become annoying christians who can say they've "been there" and thus are above all the stupid nihilists, like they somehow know something...they know nothing, just like everyone else

Not really, it's just a suspension of judgement. Like not deciding arbitrarily that truths are more valued than untruths.

its more like: suicide is just as random and superflous as everything else, in other words, you're already dead, so why bother killing yourself.

Although not an existentialist, check out the forthcoming book on Soren Kierkegaard by my former Kierkegaard professor Sheridan Hough. She's wicked smart and Soren was wicked nuts (but I like him).

i'm not an existenzialist. i guess i was a while back when i read 'das sein und das nichts'
yeah, kierkegaard, that guy was crazy. would make his girlfriend hate him because he thought he himself was such a bad guy and then be sad for the whole life.
but he had such analyzing powers, it's impressive

philosophy does not help
we need to have proper circulation from shit back to food. thats what we lack. the other way round, that works well, but shit->food circle is interrupted
