Philosophy - November 2006

People often ask me what the point of life is. And this is what I say: the point of life is to get from A - B as quickly as possible. In this, the alphabet is possibly the greatest form of transportation invented by man. But remember: the joy should always be in arriving, never in travelling - anxiety is your friend, your only real friend. Throughout your life, you may encounter people who will tell you that you will never amount to anything. This is not true. The fact of the matter is that you will never amount to much - that is a very big difference.
Throughout history, man has fought man, brother has struck brother, bear has baited bear. Religions have come and gone. Yet one argument lingers like an unwanted houseguest...bold or italics?... bold or italics? I like to keep out of these matters and am reluctant to be drawn on issues of font, but something must be said. These things are never clear cut, but for my mind, it is always better to favour italics.

And if you are climbing that social ladder, why are you doing it?
What's your drive?
Money, Power, Fame? Knowledge? Opportunity?

I hate mine. I just get so nervous. I worry about death. I want to end my life. I feel like giving up. I can't stand going to school. I just feel like going crazy because I can't take it anymore

Have you ever wanted to end your life?

Have you ever wanted to give up?

Have you ever wanted to go crazy?

Why am I alive?

People are always asking me why God put them on earth.

I rarely have the answer, but I politely inform them that I will pass on any relevant enquiries to the person in charge.

This normally satisfies them and they leave me to carry on being nailed to a cross.

If life seems pointless, then comfort yourself with the fact that plenty of other things are pointless too, and that evolution will probably end up turning mankind into something capable of finding answers.

Failing that, DO NOT kill yourself. You will die one day, and you never know when a pleasant surprise will change your life for the better.

In my conversations with God (he calls, I accept the charges), I find he asks more questions than he answers. He often asks me for the bank details of me and my friends.

He rarely answers any of my theological queries, and sometimes says nothing.

I do hope it is God, or I've been wasting my time.
