The pointlessness of life often brings a selected few to the point of an epiphanic moment which tags with it the self destructive question, "where do I go from here".
Now that I know how truly purposeless life is, how do i live it.
The religiously inclined have it easy. This life is only a passage. A passage that is detrimental to where your spiritual self ends up after it leaves your mortal confines.
Lets level the playing field in the spirit of argumentation.
For a moment, just for a brief one, imagine, as it were, there were no GOD.
what then? what then are we truly living for? Fulfilling our altruistic tendencies? Ones that only came about AFTER civilization?
Is it to life a good clean life? Not indulge our senses to the fullest? WHY did we evolve to have them then!
The dichotomy in our life is very evident.. We don't exactly serve any purpose here. We're not going anywhere from here. Might as well make the most of our time here.
Now where does religion fit in here? Religion gives hope of a rosy afterlife in the case of us being good. er.. It isn't all that hopeful a place for the less than perfect..
For the rest of us, life is simple. try to live it with too much complication, it will be the meanest mistress you've ever seen. But life a simple life, fulfill all your senses. Experience everything she has to offer and she will reward you with a lifetime of experiences.
Honestly, I'd rather have non existence after a well lived life than live eternally looking down from the heavens at people living the way I wished I had..
