Question

expand my mind for 10pts.

Answer 1

To be what others expect and not to be true to yourself?

To be honest or not to be?

To be ethical or not to be?

To be compassionate or not to be?

To be happy with what you have or not to be?

To be underhanded to get ahead or not to be?

To be easily offended and angry or not to be?

These are some of the questions we have to wade through in this roller coaster called life.

Answer 2

80% of humanity, the religious folks, don't need to ask the meaning of life, the church tells them....the supernatural explanation. But the rest of us can't swallow religious dogma, because there's no evidence. Nobody can prove that there life after death, that people are tortured or rewarded after life or that there's invisible spirits running around.

I've come to two conclusions recently:

1. Life has no meaning
2. Life has a million meanings.

First, there's a certainty that death and annihilation awaits not only you, but the Earth in general. It's an astonomical certainty that our sun will supernova and leave the earth a burnt crisp, not to mention all the other extinction level events around the corner.

Second, the million things that give us meaning are the pleasurable experiences we can conjure up during the short period we are here on the earth, in the form of the relationships we have with our kids and other people, and the 'housekeeping' types of purposes. What i mean by that are the curing disease, ending hunger, improving literacy, reducing crime, preventing war, helping other kinds of things.

So the bottom line is, we only have a temporary meaning to life, to reduce pain and increase pleasure, other than that everything is lost to oblivion.


To be or not to be? "To be" is temporary and "not to be" is inevitable.....

Answer 3

"To be or not to be, --that is the question:--
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?"

Reflected on being or not a few times in my life.

Answer 4

Many literary geniuses have concluded that "To be or not to be" was Shakespeare's way of saying "Is it better to be alive or dead?"

I'm not going to go too deep into the subject right now, because it is 12:01 a.m.....time for bed! lol
