I am going to come in my pants again

I quite like it.

Keeps things simple, like. Objectives and that.

[Squeamous]

Agreed. But some people need to feel important and special, and that's where God comes in .

Some research has shown that the more educated you are the less intelligent you think you are...wonder if that could be said for ego too?

[The Flying Cow]

I don't feel important and special, and I believe in God.

Didn't really get that correlation there.

I believe that most people need to feel they were created for a purpose because they can't handle the idea that they are completely insignificant.

It's all down to DNA Barbie.

You know, for instance, you find a woman's hips sexy? Well, you find them sexy because it helps your DNA reproduce. You're just the vehicle that carries them, and you are there to service them. Your body is just an elaborate vessel designed to preserve them. And it's not their fault, because the way they're constructed means they produce substances that interact with their environment. When they first arose and started producing those substances it made sense that the ones that produced substances that helped them perpetuate would be most successful. Life is basically a code that passively and inexorably evolves completely thoughtlessly. There is no point but to just be.

Very well put, thanks

Wait until you hit your late 20's . All of a sudden you're running just to keep up with the future.

I think the notion that you are completely insignificant is quite liberating in a way.

Then the only thing left to do is make yourself and those around you as happy and comfortable as possible :hippy:

Totally agree Barbie. I read somewhere a quote that went along the lines of 'the meaning of life is to find what you enjoy and do it'

i read something close to that. Also heard that the meaning of life is to find love and to pass on your DNA
