Yes I meant it was implicit.
When you say that world isn't perfect, the question is what would be perfect. Do you mean like heaven? Will the world ever become prefect?
There's a koan: everything is perfect and everything can get better. What that means, I think, is that everything is perfect in the sense that it couldn't have been any better. Since everything that exists now is the direct result of everything that has happened before, it couldn't have been "better" than it is. For today to have been different, yesterday would've had to have been something it wasn't. It's pointless to say the past should've been different, it doesn't get us anywhere useful. So it is perfect in the sense that it couldn't have been better. But we can still make tomorrow better than today. See what I mean?
Not sure I'm wording things in an intelligible manner, I slept like 1 hours last night. But again, that's perfect
I don't believe there's some "ultimate" or "objective" meaning to or existence, no. That's just our grand egos trying to take up a lot of space in the universe. Nothing will matter when the universe collapses on itself, but lots of things matter to us, today, and I think that's a beautiful thing. Like finding a pretty flower in a mud puddle.
I don't see why we should kill anyone. We are significant, just not objectively.
I don't think my children are objectively more valuable than somebody else's. But they're still the most valuable thing in the universe
to me. And I think that's fine.
Of course I do. Human and animal life is valuable to me. I wish for happiness for everyone.
I too would like to see the world different, or better if you will. But I don't know how I could say how the world OUGHT to be. I can imagine all kinds of scenarios, free beer for everyone and no hangovers, no inclination to be selfish, literally anything. But I think that in order to change reality, we must first have a grip on what reality IS.
I, too, am very glad you did. If it works for you, go for it. And I'm extremely thankful that I get to find meaning and peace and hope even though I think there's no God or purpose to our existence.
Not at all, I just see that even though our existence is pointless, the world isn't filled only with suffering.

Maybe not in the end, but it matters now, and, as they say, now is all we have.
Please do! Yes, I have a sense of right and wrong.
