joeg Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 What is life? Life is like a big obstacle put in front of your optical to slow you down And everytime you think you gotten past it it's gonna come back around and tackle you to the damn ground What are friends? Friends are people that you think are your friends But they really your enemies, with secret indentities and disguises, to hide they true colors So just when you think you close enough to be brothers they wanna come back and cut your throat when you ain't lookin What is money? Money is what makes a man act funny Money is the root of all evil Money'll make them same friends come back around swearing that they was always down What is life? I'm tired of life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0nythelover Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 life is the manifestations of a certain level of energy. matter is a form of energy, or rather it is created by energy and can revert to energy, sound can become heat which can become light and on and on. we are a form of energy manifested in our physical forms like a resistor in a light bulb that turns electricity into light, the problem is that our energy runs out or we blow our fuse, but not to worry, our energy is released from our bodies and returned again to the cosmos. most of this is from the book the celestine prophecy and not my personal beliefs,, whats interesting is that there is this guy on oz now that keeps talking bout stuff like this. i think life is my unwaking dream...no wait thats from the legend of zelda...guess i dont know...

Randy Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 Originally posted by joeg that was interesting, but one note, its the filament in the lightbult that makes light... not a resistor... (not to be anal or anything... just fyi...) that filament then acts as a resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dialectics Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 i called my view nihilism, but it really isn't.1) we are born, we live, we grow old, we die.2) the most innate drive of any living organism is to prolong its life.3) our lives will end as our bodies decay, so the only hope is the afterlife.4) the afterlife is just a myth to give us hope5) you can live after death in memory - those who live on keep you alive because you've touched their lives through being there, your work, etc.6) the earth will be destroyed either by nuclear holocaust, nanobot swarm, natural erosion, destruction of the sun, pollution, or it will simply be unncessary as artificial intelligence replaces all life.7) once the earth is destroyed there will be nobody alive to remember you. hence your afterlife is over, and all of the contributions made by the great civilizations of old are absoultely worthless.8) therefore the meaning of life is to actively seek out other planets with which to inhabit. any other goal is simply self-serving, a relentless pursuit of comfort from which humanity derives no utility.

If that is what you believe, then what are you pursuing?Very interesting thoughts I must say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with most of that except 8 -The meaning of life, given all it's futility, is to enjoy the life that you have to live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim58 Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 just think about EVERY animal and every living thing on this planet, not one of them contemplates the meaning of life... because they are too stupid to know any better, not to be mean towards animals but, um its true! So essentially humans are a freak of nature too smart for our own good trying to figure out some "meaning" (another concept invented by humans) of life. Man, there is no meaning, its just there, its just random, just like the universe. The greatest term invented by man is as follows:SHIT HAPPENS!!!!!!!!
