Don't worry about me; I'm doing just fine -- but thanks for your concern.
It is a hoot, isn't it?
Why ask me? I'm not that child.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say they didn't.
Of course -- they took those lives for a reason.
Is that what they're supposed to do?
Do you think they don't? What's the minimum amount of time -- in your opinion -- that it takes for a life to have meaning?
We haven't established yet that they were -- millions of people die of starvation every day -- did their lives matter to you?
People who commit suicide don't see enough meaning in their lives to continue them.
As for terrorists and wars, well... sometimes people find something more valuable than life... and are willing to sacrifice their own -- or, far more likely, someone else's -- life in order to achieve it. Did their life lose meaning because they found something that meant more?
Does that mean that the people who died young deserved it?
You seem to think that the meaning of life is to impress you -- you're going to find yourself profoundly disappointed with that worldview. But that's your mistake to make.
Well, logic hasn't been helping you; don't expect it to now. You like what you believe because you find the alternative too depressing. Not much logic there, friend.
Don't pretend to invoke logic at this point... it hasn't been helping you.
Should I? Says who?
Indeed -- what I say is quite different from what Jesus said. Are you just noticing that now?
Of course, what Jesus said was also quite different from what God said in the Old Testament, which is one of the reasons the people of his time found him so controversial. But I digress...
Indeed; I'm making truth claims. You still haven't explained why you find that so shocking.
You might think so; but I don't. I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree, and stand by our opinions.
That's not a problem, is it?
I take the first part as a compliment; in all honesty, I'm not sure what you mean by "logic," but I suspect I'd have a lot of correcting to do if you explained it.
As for the second part, you never asked me what I thought the meaning of
my life was -- I'm going to assume at this point that you don't care. That's fine; you don't have to pretend otherwise.
If you prefer to have the meaning of your life assigned to you, that's your business.
I can't really take you seriously, either, but if you know anything about logic, you probably should've figured that out by now via abductive reasoning.
