do we use philosophy to explain things we dont fully understand? or we use philosophy to simply hold on strongly with what we believe in(regardless if it isnt factual or fully understood)?

How would you try explain the 'meaning' of life to a person from outside of this world?
-and-
How it is perfect for you?

Human beings believe in the existence of God. But, if there are no human beings, what would justify God's existence.

Don't say, the universe existed way before we existed. We say, this because we exist and we've researched about it. But, If, we weren't here, how would we have got to know about the things that surround us.

We exist, therefore, we justify the existence of eternal as well as earthly entities, don't we?

Yes, I know about the Holy Bible, the Bhagvad Gita, the Holy Koran, but we are saying this because we exist. Had there been no human beings, there would have been no prophets, hence no book on anything let alone religion, no reality.

Even I believe in God. But, I'm an inquisitive soul. Answering this question isn't going to harm anybody. I'm a scientist. Don't scientists question the world around them?
I know you'll say what you'll say because you've read it somewhere or someone has told you about it. But, can you prove what you say?

Why do human procreate?
The action of introducing a life into this world is deplorable.
The moment the child is born, it is the begining of the end for it.
Why do it?

Wouldn't it be nice NOT to have known this dysfunctional world if given a choice?
They say ignorant is Bliss.

Yeah! you might say that this world has a lot to offer and beauty can be found in myriad places but, if you have no consciousneous, you would not be missing anything at all.

Why do some people still do it?

Why do the plankton do it just to have their millions of offsprings being scoop up by a whale as food?
If they just stop procreation, they would have done the would be next generation a great big favour.

Why do pigs do it as we all know how the story of a pig will always end.

Is it for human selfish reason of leaving a legacy so people can remember them after they are gone?

Why? Why?

Let's assume that I believe I am the only 'human' to exist. Let's actually assume that I may only be a mind - I might even be nothing more than an intellegent 'computer program' in part of the system that models the universe. So, everything else around me is part of that simulation - maybe I am too, but I can only understand my own thoughts and perceive things from my own senses (that are all part of that system). What is this belief called?

I thought it might be solipsism, but the more I read the more I realise that solipsism doesn't really describe the belief that there *may* be something real, we just aren't in it and, perhaps, we can never find it. Perhaps everything is just a simulation of everything else. Perhaps it's all in the mind of Shiva, I don't know - the point is, what's this all called?! It's driving me mad when people ask me 'what do you believe' having to try to explain to them that I don't even believe they exist!!! A one word response would be easier!
