Hmm interesting question though...
I don't know, it's hard to tell, like I wonder why we're put here and what our purpose in life is and where we're headed, but so far no religion has explained it properly (in my opinion) its a matter of ultimate reality... what we came from, what surrounds us and what we shall return to..


That's my problem too =o
Like I don't believe in any of the major religions, but I am not too keen on the idea of nothing either.
And I can't work out whether there is some greater being as to why we are here, or if it's up to us to decide why we're here (eg I want to help people do this, or I want to be a multimillionare, or I want to get pissed/party everyday etc etc) to gain some sort of purpose or reason why I am waking up every day etc
Oh and if it is actually possible to have an answer to any of this =P


Yeah, I'm thinking of writing a book possibly about it ^_^
I've developed some theories, but yeah, they're a mix of what all religions say lol.. and a bit of my own. Hope i get the time to write it :)


Imo... religion is just the original theory for existence.
Now that we have higher technologies etc, more theories can be developed.

In teh same way the previous theories for things like evolution, nad (THE GOD DAMN WAVE/PARTICLE NATURE OF LIGHT) can be superimposed by other theories as we progress.

I've gone through Catholic schooling by entire life even though I'm not Catholic. I'm a very strong believer that God exists. I don't know why but I think it has something to do with fear.

Quote from: "enwiabe"

Camus' brand of existentialism dictates that we must dream in life.


He also shows us how to kill Arabs! (no racism intended, read L'etranger/The Outsider...or listen to Killing an Arab by The Cure to get the gist of it)

Camus also theorised that the only important decision in life was whether or not to commit suicide.

Interesting guy.

You shouldn't fear God...
I've gone to a Catholic school most of my life, and I understand just about everything about Catholicism... Through studying it, it's made me turn away from it all (weird I know, I used to believe, but now I just don't). However I do believe there must be some sort of "supreme being", but right now, i'm going to focus on what my purpose here on earth is, rather than waste my time figuring out how the world was created.

VCE isnt a purpose lol ...
Purpose is like what your "calling" is, it's the bigger picture stuff, VCE can help you find that purpose I guess, but it definitely isnt a purpose.
