If you found out the meaning of life, would you share it for free, keep it to yourself, or charge fees for enlightenment?

Is there a reality? Just how far does the illusion go, to include what we precieve as us? If this is illusuion / dream, then is enlightenment waking to this fact or possibly more? Thank you in advance with this question.

How would you define the term?

How would you go about presenting a skeptical hypothesis?
What would be the premises and conclusion?

The human brain has not figured out exactly how the human body work. Strang being that "evolution creator". Maybe it is two different evolutions.

When I am honest from the heart, say the things I believe and feel, some people call it rudeness. I understand tact and use it when ever I can but, there are certain subjects that anger me sooo very much I cant temper my words. What do yall think? Do you apprecieate blatant honesty?

Constant feels that it is okay to lie to some who injures others. He feels they don't have the right to the truth. So he's saying it is okay to lie to a mass murderer who comes to your home looking for you brother so he could kill him. Kant feels telling the truth would be best because what happens if your brother escapes once he finds out the murderer is at the door but not to your knowledge and your lying may cause the murderer to leave and run into your brother as he's escaping and murder the brother. Do you agree with Kant or Constant? If you were the brother in this situation would you stay put or try to escape?

So many folks ask whimsical "why?" questions like

why do we love?
why isn't there paradise on Earth?
why do I live and feel?
why did I write this?

Ad infinitum. The only thing stopping you from utter confusion is your imagination, for you can ask "why?" all the time, and to anything. Skip the bullshit and simply ask...

Why?

A practical, common sense answer to this would help MANY boys and girls to move on.

Ohh, and 10 POINTS to the best answer ;P

So a lot of people have been saying it's okay to lie if your intentions were good, if the lie results in good, etc. Well I wanted to know in this particular situation, from a philosophical point of view is lying acceptable. Say you had a friend who jumped to a conclusion about you, ex. he or she thought you were rich based on how you dress yet you know you aren't rich. Your mom just happens to get discounts at clothing stores. Is it wrong not to tell your friend that you aren't rich if he or she doesn't ask? What if he or she did ask and you didn't tell them the truth because you wanted to remain friends with them due to the fact that you feel the only reason you guys are friends is because you are supposedly rich and you don't want to lose him or her if they find out otherwise.
