So there is neither meaning nor escape, life just seems a series

Try to enjoy it and fail. I don't even know what to do anymore. I wish God would do battle with hell already. I want to go home.

Nonliving matter has no inherent meaning. Meaning can only exist in the minds of sentient beings. Even a book full of words, absent a mind to read it, is meaningless. So, even though the universe has no meaning, life does have meaning. Meaning only exists because of life.

Sorry that "the meaning of life" can't be condensed into a single sentence. Why would we expect there to be a simple answer for this? The question is ambiguous and nonsensical on its face. The meaning of life not only exists, but it is so voluminous that we write libraries full of books, music, and other media just to try to make sense of it.

If you want to know the meaning of life, go to a library and spend a few weeks reading a tiny portion of it.

Keep cutting out distractions until the sick feeling that something bad is going to happen to you unless you find out why you are here is too strong to resist.

This basically
>>34535844

There is no reason to live, but no reason to die either

Have you read Myth of Sisyphus? That's about the best I can think of. It doesn't really satisfy me though. Maybe I'm just not super sold on the life thing. It's definitely more pain than pleasure, but am I going to let pain stop me?

It also brings up the questions surrounding want. Ideally I would love in a world I wholly approve of. All my fantasies known and unknown coming true with no effort. I would understand. What does one do when they don't have to struggle for anything though? Or know the future? Just enjoy the experience and feeling? Also my perfect world could be a nightmare for someone else.

Life is about spreading your seed. This is the only objective purpose of existence.

I hate this argument it's so "I just took biology in high school"

>>34537051
It's not an argument, it's a statement of fact. You'll stop thinking things sound like high school when you get out of it.

>>34537067
I'll spread my seed on your mom you Sam Harris tier retard

>>34537123
You couldn't spread your seed on a napkin, kiddo.

>>34537067
it's not a statement of fact. reproduction is not the purpose of existence. it is a result of existence and an instinct of existence but it is not a purpose any more than sleeping is a purpose of existence.

>>34537213
>reproduction is not the purpose of existence
What is then?

Both the meaning and escape are cute anime girls, you dip. How did you not realize this already? The answer to life has been under your nose all along!

>>34537239
Not an argument. Procreation is the most quantifiable reason for existence.

>>34537213

>reproduction is not the purpose of existence

Mankind gives themselves the idea of existence having a purpose.

Nature itself just is, just does.

Other anon is right. As far as life in the universe is concerned, the only thing that matters is procreation.

Anything beyond that is you applying your own rules to your existence.

Personally i have stalked my virtual waifu all night.

Im not very good at it though, i dont know where she is withing the game, just that shes online.

TFW Waifu starts logging on late in the evenings. It's almost as if she's avoiding me! :)

>>34537221
there is none (aside from what you choose to make your purpose). there is no such thing as objective purpose.

>>34537297
>Procreation is the most quantifiable reason for existence.
how do you quantify a reason for existence?

>>34537393
no, your first two sentences are absolutely true and then the following line fucks it up.

nature is, nature does. there is no purpose, including procreation. procreation enables continued existence but nature doesn't "care" about your continued existence because nature isn't capable of reason or purpose. calling anything the purpose of life, including procreation, is applying your own rules to your existence. an ultimate purpose or meaning is a human invention.

you say that procreation matters but why? the purpose of procreation is to extend human existence for one more generation, so what is the purpose of extending human existence for one more generation? so that we can extend it for one more generation? until we can no longer extend it? how is that a purpose?

>>34537682

i was hoping that someone might want to talk about something other than fucking in a pornographic sense so i took the opportunity to post about fucking in an existential sense. at least you replied to me. that's more conversation than usual.

Hey hope you can find some good discussion somewhere. Too bad this thread dies over all the fucking racebait and gay shit. I wonder if they're trying to push us off the board with it somehow. I'm considering leaving because it's so stupid

post more ecchi

>>34535844
Make the most of it.
It's fascinating that those that view life as meaningless are always the ones the never try and live it. You see no sky gid to judge and no enternal echo of existence and yet everyday you live like those things are holding you and you fear a world that will forget you and you will forget it.

>>34535844
manufacture meaning and generally just enjoy whatever you can

think about why you haven't killed yourself yet, then make that your purpose in life. EX: I won't kill myself because I love my family, so my purpose in life (in a roundabout way) is to start a family. as bluepilled as it might sound to some, it works for me

Go to a 10-day vipassana meditation retreat and find liberation. Your true nature is eternal bliss that does not need distractions.
