This is from an idea by someone who answered an earlier question of mine. What it means is: can you think of a question to ask on here which is nearly guaranteed to get no answers?

So, your answer should be a question, I suppose. I will ask the best answer, I promise.

I am talking about life.. all of it, including the stars the moon, the planet, the ocean, the mountains, the animals, the people, the cultures, our very exsistence, and I mean both in a very deep way, but also like you have been slapped around the face and reminded that you are human, alive, mortal, and one day to leave this world, and whilst we are here, we do not actually know where here is, (and may never know) There are many theories, as to what why where and how, but none of them really seem to stand up , but something IS "going on" And every day we go around, behaving like everything is "normal" and we know what is happening, which is true in our everyday sense, but only because we are not thinking about what is actually happening most of the time (since we can not figure it out, and it would render us useless, and even more to the point probably dead)
So we go around believing we are in control, and that we know, or at least we are happy to accept that we do not know,

What do you want for your afterlife?

You don't want to decompose, rot and end. Do you?

Funny answers are as welcome as serious ones.

If our genes decide what we are (..our characters..) , does it mean we are just more intelligent robots created by God ?

Should we fear that ==> we are not in control of our own choices. Our brains or our genes decide everything we will do in life. There would be no need for morality or knowing right from wrong because there would be no conscious choice.

And what should we do?

The famous philosopher, Descartes, walks into a bar. The bartender asks, "Can I get you a drink?"

Descartes replies, "I think not." and disappears!!

in the king james version of the bible, it states in genesis: god created man in his own image; in his image, created he them. the word "them" seems to imply that more than one came into "being" at the same time. but, we commonly aver that god created woman from adam's rib. if so, who are the "them"?

chauvanism or what?

p.s. the hebrew word which has been transalated as "rib" means "side".

i don't mind them talking behind my back but i don't want them in my life. thanks.

one more thing. if you have such nasty people at work where they could be a threat to your "existence" what do you do. you want to keep them at a distance but they'll just keep pushing just to be mean.

If we're all following, who do we follow?.. If not one person is thinking for themselves, who are we following?.. Why can't people just live for themselves, understand that others are living for themselves, and just accept the fact that we are all different?;D
