the fuck ... you are taking my words in such a wrong way I'm in no way implying that no one should care about anything wtf
What im suggesting is that if you think about it its morally wrong to be driving a car coz of the gas its dumping out in the air and so on.Or Alcohol and Tobacco should be banned since they are harming our society - however wouldnt u say it would be a lost war if someone goes against the biggest booze & tobacco companies and also how many of you are drinking like at least once a month ? We cant take absolutely every aspect of absolutely everything all the time in to consideration.My opinion is only based on OP's post and wtf you started giving out examples of rapists and think im some sociopat or something
Probably didnt explain myself in the best possible way but whatever.Dont worry i havent given up and in no way intend to do that while im living.To be honest i've harmed myself in any way possible except physically coz i always prefer the most moral decisions.Prefer to have a clear consciousness since that can only lead to good things right?
P.S. I cant believe it .. Baal did you actually just call someone SMART and that person happens to be me ? :D well that was unexpected |

Not necessarily. It just means he finds his predetermined life to be worth living, out of enjoyment, curiosity or whatever motives. You can prefer watching a movie even if you aren't the director and would rather change some of the scenes, dialogues and actors.

could life get any sadder than that? that you are a mere spectator of what happens, totally non responsible for any of your failures successes or anything in your life, you pretty much summed it up perfectly, its just a movie you quietly watch, wow thats a sad view on life. |

I have met a fish that felt bad about taking my money once. He felt so bad that he shipped back 25 big blinds, because he felt I was so unlucky.

I was chatting with him for like 2 hours before that happened thou. |

It's just a really good movie, like when you cry during a very sad movie, or get pissed off at some character, or fall in love with some character, what have you.
But I think its true though, scientifically speaking of course, every thought in your brain, every emotion you ever felt, is created by chemical and electrical impulses. There's nothing in the brain that would be considered the conscious. We feel alive, because the electrical signals that our brain decodes as feeling alive.

I don"t agree with Clay's view at all. but I feel that this is a topic that has unlimited depth for discussion, and one that I would really like to see being discussed by people around here. I, for one tend to approach the situation from a different angle, although the conclusion can be considered hauntingly similar to that of MesmerizePLZ's ( if he did draw what I believe he did as conclusion) : our lives are so utterly insignificant, that we have completely free choices in whatever we decide, we can and should take full responsibility for whatever we do, but we are simply so overwhelmed by circumstances and causality that we are merely drifting on the waves of events beyond our existence. I can see the comfort in accepting this as fate as opposed to feel sad about it. |

oh yea dont you always find that character in movies that you root for
you know that strange feeling - you want him to progress, you want his story to develope in the best way possible for him and have a happy ending but he must also take the good, moral deeds throughout his path otherwise you ll dislike him
so why not become this character? |

This dumb (I admit :-)) response to show that the argument "I'm free to do what I choose to do" is wrong. While it does'nt interact with the others, I'm ok with it. But if you are getting drunk and then driving your car...
Other point, about the self decision. I don't agree on the assertion that someone is up to choose alone what he wants to do. There are some decisions you are not ready to make, not mature enough... or too crazy to do. Thanks to the law, or parents education, lots of people have been prevented from making some stupid mistakes when they were younger.
Freedom is for me overrated.

if freedom is overrated, then slavery is underrated?
Every great achievement has come from independent work of some independent mind. Every horror and destruction came from attempts to force men into a herd of brainless soulless robots without personal rights and ambitions. A mans right should be to live for and to exist for his own sake. Not for the government as ...they try to enslave us with more tax burdens they propose for our future.
