[QUOTE="Yaaten, post: 76914280, member: 445591"] Au contraire, meaning is EVERYTHING! Why do you, for example, bother to engage us all here in these discussions? If life itself isn't meaningful, if there's no point to it all, if all we are is nothing more than chemistry and electricity in motion and we don't have souls, then why bother even getting out of bed in the morning? What's it all [I]for? [/I] I mean, I'm going to assume you don't believe in anything beyond what we have here on this Earth (i.e. no afterlife, reincarnation, God and so on), so all we have then is complex chemistry that somehow, by some miracle, became sentient and self-aware, but which is nonetheless doomed to oblivion, and it makes no difference whatsoever if tomorrow I choose to end it all. After all, that's where we'll all end up anyway, so why delay it? Why hang around? NOTE: I am NOT recommending that anyone take their own life here. I'm just making a point. [/QUOTE]
