I doubt it. The forums are pretty boring as of late. The gender bender was taking off but sadly stomped out

Yeah, unfortuantely I didn't get around to contributing to that train wreck before the mods got to it. Forums have been boring for ages now.

I always miss all the fun 

[ObserverStatus]

On days when there is no other reason to get up, there's always the fact that I get a bad headache whenever I sleep in for longer than 9 hours. No number of unanswered existential questions will change that.

The meaning of life was definitively revealed by Bill Hicks in his "positive drug story" routine:

“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the Weather.”


I actually teach philosophy, and unfortunately, I can assure you that there is absolutely no consensus on this subject whatsoever.

Is life it's own seperate entity driving us simply to preserve and continue the existence of it?

Morning wood doesn't go away on it's own. Well, it does, but I'm not one to let it go to waste.

I jab my wife in the back until she yells at me, then I go handle it myself. After that, I'm like, "Better get on BSN."

And she's like "It's 6:00 AM. Come back to bed."

And I'm like "Nah."

Thank you sir. I needed a laugh

[Gravisanimi]

To work so I can pay for the things that allow me to stay in bed.

Pffft.

 

More like fun.  It was a good read.

Sounds kinda like something out of The Thin Red Line (one of my favorite movies BTW): "Maybe all men got one big soul everybody's a part of."

 

Anyways, I'm not sure what it would mean to say that life is its own separate entity, but I'm skeptical. The plurality view among English-speaking philosophers (which I'm generally in agreement with) is some version of 'naturalism.' This word is notoriously difficult to define, but in rough outline, the idea is that what exists is what our best sciences tell us about: atoms, organisms, the four forces, etc. Ghosts, supernatural beings, souls, spirits, some great big life-essence that we're all a part of--that stuff is bogus. I don't know if that answers your question at all, but hopefully it helps somewhat.

Apparently no one knows the answer

[Jock Cranley]

Porking.

[Gravisanimi]

Well I was replying to the question in the OP, not the Thread Title, but since you ask.

 

No, know one person knows the answer.

 

You can know your answer, you aren't allowed to learn other people's answer.

 

You can be told, but if you try to learn someone else's meaning to life the Lrahs will get you.

 

And then you'll wake up as a star's core.

Because there is none. We grind our way through it until we die and then we move onto something else. Maybe less shitty maybe not.

I have exactly the same problem, more than 8 hours of sleep and my head tries to kill me for the rest of the day.

That was a very entertaining thread.

I enjoyed every bit of it until some idiot had to get all cereal and ruin it for everyone.

No, it's either neckache, upper backache or lower backache.

[Uccio]

There is no meaning. Everything is because of change. Better just to enjoy your stay while it lasts.
