Totally not alone man, move to another country where you can have actual CONNECTIONS with other human beings. America is not the place for...um...anything good really. =/
on your point about not seeing anything supernatural. if tomorrow ghosts were shown to be 100% real would they still be supernatural or just natural? thousends of years ago the sun was supernatural or breath but now they are natural. who's to say we haven't found prof of an after life or anything of the like and just call it natural but do not fully understand it. does this make sense?
@Grado2003 There's a difference with musicians- if you're really that good, you'll play or songwrite in a way that no one has ever thought to before. Any noteworthy rockstar eventually manages to accomplish this- for an obvious example, just look at Jimi Hendrix!
@Dude11191 To this I say- does a reality by any other name smell as sweet? You can call what we're experiencing whatever you like (dream, illusion, vibrations, energy) but that does nothing to change the fact that we are experiencing it. I think, therefore, I am. That's right, I went all existentialist on you there.
@jgmafia I know life sucks,but theres more to us and life than meets the eye.Good evidence is the universe.We can only see a fraction of our own galaxy.Whats past that? When we die,im sure we go to a wonderful place.So dont worry about this life,because its basically not real,at the same time it is though.If you really want to udnerstand,then look up these things

Dont worry,dont be afraid ever.Because this is just a ride.Im about to reveal information that many dont know.Im not saying I am more intelligent,better,or special then any of you,call me insane or retarded,but I know based of my evidence,and research.That this theory is 100% a possibility.Here it goes.Astral projection is altered states of concioucness,in which the spirit seperates from ones physical body.The astral body is not bound by the lawa of physics nor the 5 senses.
Well, fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your perspective, it'll all be over soon. If it's not by the hand of the climate spiraling out of control, it will be from the chaos that ensues as the world's major oil fields go into production decline, or the potential nuclear war that will occur as a result of this.
Couldn't it be that it is just this world, this society, that sets you up for this type of feeling of futility? You know, it forces you to work, to always worry about the future, etc. If so, if our society is the problem, then perhaps a meaningful life is one spent rebelling against it, trying to change it, no? so that future generations can live more fully than we can, etc.
@kutz784 I would like to think so, but I do think this kind of society does tend to cater to people who are less creative and more "driven," and so I think the problem may just be one of incompatibility with my personality type and interests, and not a problem overall. Then again, I can't say for sure whether humanity is headed in a positive future direction either, so maybe there is a real problem, though I guess the ultimate question is what really constitutes a positive direction.
dan here wish i wasn't even born just here to suffer really granparents both dead wish i was so i dont have to go to another fucking funeral dont want to work because i'd just saving for my funeral thats all life is work till your to fucking old to do what it is you wanted to do in your prime years the only cunts that have it good are the cunting royal family and those mother fucking over paid celebs cunts the lot of them im glad they'll be dead and spoilt shits fight over their money ha ha ha
@zreffe2 You know, I do love philosophy, but somehow I doubt being a poor, bitter philosophy teacher (the only thing I could really hope to do with a philosophy degree) will provide much satisfaction, let alone job security.
I feel like ive seen everything and the world is pointless and boring. And Ive gone into extremely long thought about it so its not really a simple thing. I wish I had never even thought about life. I wish I could just live a like a simple minded person.
I know _excatly_ how you feel... Nothing you do will make a difference and everyone else seems more gifted... That's why, when I get a house in a year or two, I'm going to buy a shovel and go out back and just... dig. I'm gonna dig a big fucking hole, all by myself. It won't be the biggest hole ever or the deepest hole ever, but it will be MINE. MY hole, dug by ME, without anyone's help. And no one will ever take it from me.
@FsRonin I completely agree with everything you just said, although a hole (not a sexual metaphor) won't solve any of the problems on my infinitely growing list :(
What is the point of life, activities are meaningless, I cant find people I enjoy, is there something out there that makes life worth it, I can't seem to find love, so is there anything else other than wanting to get stoned every day so I wont care about how much I hate life and wish I'd never been born into this boring and meaningless existence..?
@Sle1ght I could go into the statistics about historical proof of the prophocies fuffilled and the odds 1 book writen thousands of years ago would fuffill those prophocies but I'm really lazy and would rather you just research them yourself. Getting a job soon so that i can buy a decent comp and mod fallout 3 (ftw lol)
@Glennfalconi I think if nothing else, go out and do everything that normal society condones, or do things you'd normally have never done, who knows maybe that will give your life more meaning.. And the point of life I am assured isn't to think about how insignificant we are or how pointless it is lol.
@michaelbme: no, it's because at this time I was sharing a house and it was late, so I was trying to stay quiet. I always seem to find the urge to make these things in the middle of the night.
Here where the problem is. You've got only a few pieces from the whole picture. No wonder then that life seems so pointless. If I were you I would think the same. In this sense pre-Fall history is a key position. It is not so little what Bible tells about it. God's greatest desire is for you to see a clear picture of His character. When you see Him clearly, you will find His love irresistible. However don't forget He's got a foe.
Ugh, let's get this straight- even if this is in the cards (though I believe it is most likely a comforting lie), in the long run, even according to Christianity, you will still eventually cease to exist, with the only consequence of your existence being the meaningless story you told with your life. How is heaven described in the bible? "A place without sin." You would not be who you are in this life without the temptations of sin, so how is it possible to maintain your identity in heaven?
Determinately, don't you know that though the great amount of reasons faith alone is what introduse us into God's World because "after that in the wisdom of yhwh the world by wisdom knew not yhwh, it pleased yhwh by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe."/I Cor 1:21/ I don't need any arguments, I'm experiencing this life. You've got "wilderness" and I've got "wilderness with manna".
Well, I have to admit, I'm not completely certain of the meaning of those last two sentences, but I might have an idea... it seems to me you're implying that God has basically decided to ignore me? Sorry, I'm pretty bad with metaphor.
Or no, I think I see now, that it's the other way around, I'm shutting out God and so I can't have the manna. Well I wasn't trying to shut God out for most of my life, and I have little to show for it as a result. I'm tired of accepting God's will that I remain a living representation of spoiled mediocrity who is punished, and not rewarded for being as loving and considerate a person as I can be every day. I'm not bs-ing here either, ask almost anyone I know, they'll tell you!
Well, your life conception is already a little bit upgraded, isn't it? You have included God within the picture,... don't worry it is natural. So we have meaningless life with God in the center. Hm, it becomes a little bit harder now, don't you think? I have a suggestion: why don't you change your video discussion title from "Life is poinless" to "God is guilty"? Sorry for the irony, I just want to provoke your deeper thinking.
What becomes harder? How does possessing some obscure notion of "God" in one's life make that life any less pointless?
Also, it's not as if I'm accusing a conscious being of deliberately ruining my life in spite of my ethical nature, rather, I'm lamenting the obvious lack of justice in the world, an observation which suggests that no being/force/idea, conscious or otherwise, particularly deserves to recognized or revered for allowing such injustice to exist.
I Believe life is pointless. Over 50% of your life you don't even enjoy. It's mainly the way society is structured. There is so much wasted time!! OMG is there so much wasted time......
Life could be perfect.....It could be, if people wanted it to be. The powerful always find ways to take power and make everyone's life miserable. I won't take it though. I already have an idea of how ill go out of this world. Not soon and not suicide. Fighting for true freedom in the soon next revolution.
Very Philosophical and poetic in some manners. Perhaps the many questiosn of life's worth, such as, "Is Life worth living?", are irrelevant. Not to say it holds no value, but that the answer, which many claim to possess, are neither wrong nor correct.
And dont get your feelings hurt if some girl didnt like you. As I said theres a lot of assholes in this world, and since she didnt gave you anything she is just a bitch. LOL Dont take girls too serious. When it comes to love,im sure you will find a girl that really loves you sometime, It may not be the first or the second, but im sure you will find it as soon as you keep searching for her. But If you do nothing, man, then it will be hard to something happen. *ladies man
You know, I really appreciate what you're saying, and I believe this is good advice, but to follow it sort of leads me to an existential crisis. It suggests (correctly, I assume) that there is no perfect woman for me, and therefore that there is no reason not to use women for pleasure and nothing more, that God cares nothing about my happiness or theirs or anyone else's for that matter.
This then suggests that there's no magic to love then, it's just a fulfillment of a basic biological function, and so I act out my role as a genetic robot because it's programmed in my genes. This serves to reinforce that I'm just like everyone else, dust in the wind, with no more significance that any other creature who roams the Earth. I hate this truth, it bothers me so deeply I can hardly express it in words.
I realize that through this line of thought I am doing the opposite of your (probably wise) suggestion to keep it simple, but I can't seem to help myself. I am dismayed at the meaninglessness of it all, and mostly at my own insignificance. Living with this knowledge is a torture I can't seem to escape, and I will carry this burden with me to my death, when I am certain to be paralyzed with fear at my certainty of this unthinkable yet intuitive reality.
Women is a matter of tries. If you try, you have a chance of have sucess or fail. If you dont , you will fail for sure. So doesnt matter if you are not a don Juan, just dont be shy, and say whatever the shit gets in your mind. You will sure get a lot of `no` s but you will also get some `yes`. Its like this to me, and i belive its the same to everyone too.
Man, life is not fair. But as soon as you try to keep it`s simple. It gets easier. Even more when we talk about girls. Theres a lot of persons in this world that sucks, a lot of assholes, and they will hate you and try to fuck you for NO REASON at all.You cannot, and will not be loved by everyone NEVER. Just look at me, hell, im not a laid man, for sure im not, i have never been good with girls, NEVER. Even this way I done it... had 3 girlfriends, and some more other girls that i just had sex.
My family loves me, but this does little for my self esteem. I'd love to find a girl who would make me "feel important" as you say, but for me it would take an amazing girl to accomplish this, and all the best ones always seem to be taken already. Not only that, but I'm not much of an extrovert by nature, and I have had very little incidental exposure to beautiful, intelligent, down to earth women in my life, so I've never had the luxury of feeling comfortable enough with one to make a move.
(continuing...) But when you release that, so what? I can talk of my toughs, I found joy in my life in the other, having good persons around me, persons that makes me feel good, that make me feel importante to somone. Persons that make me feel necessary to life the next day. That make me feels like I want to act like a man. I want to be able to do things, to fight, to make it trough the difficults. My girl, make me feels like this, theres a lot of persons that make me feel like this.
Yes it is pointless, totally, nothing that you get in life have a real valor in the end. So we should just go and do whatever makes us feel good at the moment, so have the more sex you can, eat all the shit you want, cause thats the best pleasures of life. But we all need goals, small mindeds need simple goals, but who has once really reflect about why we do the same things we do everyday, will get to the conclusion that its pointless.
I ate all the shit I wanted and guess what happened? I ended up weighing 330 pounds at age 20. I did eventually lose most of it, but you can never look even AVERAGE naked after something like that without multiple surgeries. (I've had two and it would probably require 3 more if I wanted to approach normalcy.) As far as the sex goes, that carries with it the risk of unwanted pregnancies and VD, not to mention broken hearts. Besides, this is only a temporary joy, not real enlightenment!
I know how you feel. It's not whining. It's realizing and accepting the truth instead of ignoring it or pretending it doesn't exist. Personally I have no interest in anything. Nothing really drives me. I don't know why. Like you, I thought music would save me. But I didn't (and don't) have the necessary drive to succeed in that. So now what? Does it even matter? But like robots we keep on going. Now I'm just rambling. See ya.
And you find this surprising? Who else is going to stumble upon a video entitled "life is pointless." And if I were to call them anything myself, it would be perceptive and aware. To be anything else in this world displays an ignorance of our reality.
why you all talking about god, this just proves that this world has been torn up by religon, gods a guy in a book and so is jesus, there fake, it was a story made up, maybe there idea of story or opinions mixed up with fake people to make a story about well everything, therew no hard evidence to back it up, anyway you can sit there and say life is pointless, life int worth living, or you can have fun, ok life is shit, but were here and theres no point in been depressed about it.
You needJesus.. Our heavenly father. Your purpose, all your asnwers in lifes problems are in the bible.. God loves you with all his heart, he ahs a plan for you.. God's waiting for you to open your heart for him.. Trust me, i've accept Jesus and all my regrets, pain, depression is completely gone since 2 years ago..when i almost killed myself... if you need help email me.. I want to help you... God bless you and God wil fill you up with joy=D email me
hmm, i think u are rong actualy, well... i know u are rong, but ill be fair and only say i think u are rong. God is real, anyone who thinks about it logicaly will figure that out, the only thing to figure out is wich God (religion) is the real God.
Allrighty, so let's hear your logical argument for God then. Somehow I imagine it won't be entirely seamless (but if I'm wrong, you may win a Pulitzer for your comment). So who's the "real God" anyway? Hold on, hold on, let me guess... Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior right? Or maybe you're in the Allah camp. I've got $50 you're gonnna say Jesus...
@suav3sito I disagree for the sole fact of God gets people off drugs and alcohol and I've seen a huge change in our lives sense we started going to church, and everyone else is happy, just not me. It probably has to do with some chemical imbalance in the brain so I might see if a doctor can fix me but what ever. I also disagree because hope of an after life is something that keeps a lot of people from ending it and keeps them going.
fuck off...Im close to suicide and I tryed to be a good Christian,I opened up my heart to Jesus and wanting him to come in,but nothing ever changed,it was just pointless,it was a coincidance that when your life was messed up you turned to Jesus and everything changed
no, you need to actually say it and mean it. Call on his name... Read your bible, and confess it, that you believe in Jesus our God. God loves you with all his heeart.
You know guy, you might think you are helping out Christianity as a recruiter, but the truth of the matter is, robotic boilerplate material like what you just wrote above is exactly the kind of thing that will push nonbelievers even FURTHER from Christianity. There is no magical feeling of faith that is suddenly conferred? upon finishing the final page of the Bible, a leap of faith must be taken either a. voluntarily with total disregard for reason, or b. as a result of an extroardinary exp.
igmafia, what cheers me up is thinking "nick, be gratefull you are a human, and not a rock or a disease, your very lucky in the 'life' lottery" that probably sounds like giberish but its true, life is may be pointless but atleast your a pointless human with an opportunity to do things, like see all the sights, hear all the sounds, sample every food ect. when i was 15 i overheard my mum saying "he's so weird looking, i hope he finds a girl" that fucked me up. so your not alone on the women front
you're born then you die. that's it. Though I admit to being human and with my morals that I have been taught, I can not simply change my ways and career due to my strong feelings toward nothing.
Dude its been over 2 years since i have not been able to sleep because of the same shit its just a bunch of questions that have no anwser , do i like i do stop careing and just enjoy the time you have on this shitty world we live in.
JUST enjoy it man live like everday like its your last.Have fun die young thats how i have lived and i still get this re-Thoughts about the pointlessness of life, i dont tink it will ever go away man .
take night time sleep aids. play piano then when depression hits, fuck bein awake....go to pills & overdose a little. get tired. sleep. lifes a bitch.
sorry i just took a bunch. it helps. i think u worry too much.
all i do is goto work, get pissed off with it, come home, get my money stealth taxed away, sleep and do it all over again, and for what? so i can live to work another day? Big woop, if i could vanish out of existence right now and not know any different I would be gone in a flash.
Thekingdomofthedead -why don't u stfu urself bitch...look at ur name, prolly some emo sucker or something, not everything is religion fool...ah go and hang urself, cos u really don't get the point.
I agree. And it sucks. I think a few of us think about it and don't really know what to do about it. Like, am I supposed to just end it now? Or keep going even though there's no point? Then we might get distracted and not think about it for a while. And then we think about it again and realize all the time since you last thought about it was pointless. I don't know. What are we going to do?
Believe with all you're heart that it's not merely chance that brings us here. Life is not a coincidence, we received it and to receive there must be a giver. Life has meaning but it is not the human that gives it meaning but the creator. God, there can only be one truth and that is god.
fuck off bible basher godhates us all your a hypocrit you think your a fucking miricle worker coz you worship some dead guy who is his own father. STOP TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE JUST COZ THERE DEPRESSED DOESNT MEAN THEY WANT YOUR RELIGION!!!!
its like your saying all the shit we all think lying in bed at night, but no one has the courage to say outloud, cause then they might have to actually believe it.
im so tired of everything. everything is so meaningless, so worthless, so nothing...
i just do some stupid crap to keep me intertaned, i suck at spelling also. ill fail at everything i ever do. like a whole, a deep whole where no one cares about you, no one sees you. and that my life... thats it
Now now, let's not be quite THAT pessimistic. Sure, life feels pretty meaningless a lot of the time, but surely there's SOMEONE who cares about you- at least some of your family/friends no? Or maybe you're just like me and you're bumming that none of the ladies are interested (or that you don't have the confidence and/or superficial attributes to make them interested), in which case, welcome down to the pit of despair, sucks in here doesn't it?
It's like listening to my whining thoughts out-loud. Life sucks. And most of the people in the world are too stupid to notice or care. I'd love to say there's a bright side, but I can't. Just try to mindlessly enjoy it. Find something or someone to love, and the outside world won't seem to matter anymore.
Totally not alone man, move to another country where you can have actual CONNECTIONS with other human beings. America is not the place for...um...anything good really. =/

Determinately, don't you know that though the great amount of reasons faith alone is what introduse us into God's World because "after that in the wisdom of yhwh the world by wisdom knew not yhwh, it pleased yhwh by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe."/I Cor 1:21/ I don't need any arguments, I'm experiencing this life. You've got "wilderness" and I've got "wilderness with manna".

Well, I have to admit, I'm not completely certain of the meaning of those last two sentences, but I might have an idea... it seems to me you're implying that God has basically decided to ignore me? Sorry, I'm pretty bad with metaphor.
jgmafia 2 years ago
Or no, I think I see now, that it's the other way around, I'm shutting out God and so I can't have the manna. Well I wasn't trying to shut God out for most of my life, and I have little to show for it as a result. I'm tired of accepting God's will that I remain a living representation of spoiled mediocrity who is punished, and not rewarded for being as loving and considerate a person as I can be every day. I'm not bs-ing here either, ask almost anyone I know, they'll tell you!
jgmafia 2 years ago
Well, your life conception is already a little bit upgraded, isn't it? You have included God within the picture,... don't worry it is natural. So we have meaningless life with God in the center. Hm, it becomes a little bit harder now, don't you think? I have a suggestion: why don't you change your video discussion title from "Life is poinless" to "God is guilty"? Sorry for the irony, I just want to provoke your deeper thinking.
dejandodo7 2 years ago
What becomes harder? How does possessing some obscure notion of "God" in one's life make that life any less pointless?
Also, it's not as if I'm accusing a conscious being of deliberately ruining my life in spite of my ethical nature, rather, I'm lamenting the obvious lack of justice in the world, an observation which suggests that no being/force/idea, conscious or otherwise, particularly deserves to recognized or revered for allowing such injustice to exist.

I Believe life is pointless. Over 50% of your life you don't even enjoy. It's mainly the way society is structured. There is so much wasted time!! OMG is there so much wasted time......
Life could be perfect.....It could be, if people wanted it to be. The powerful always find ways to take power and make everyone's life miserable. I won't take it though. I already have an idea of how ill go out of this world. Not soon and not suicide. Fighting for true freedom in the soon next revolution.

Very Philosophical and poetic in some manners. Perhaps the many questiosn of life's worth, such as, "Is Life worth living?", are irrelevant. Not to say it holds no value, but that the answer, which many claim to possess, are neither wrong nor correct.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing. - Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5, lines 22-31

And dont get your feelings hurt if some girl didnt like you. As I said theres a lot of assholes in this world, and since she didnt gave you anything she is just a bitch. LOL Dont take girls too serious. When it comes to love,im sure you will find a girl that really loves you sometime, It may not be the first or the second, but im sure you will find it as soon as you keep searching for her. But If you do nothing, man, then it will be hard to something happen. *ladies man

You know, I really appreciate what you're saying, and I believe this is good advice, but to follow it sort of leads me to an existential crisis. It suggests (correctly, I assume) that there is no perfect woman for me, and therefore that there is no reason not to use women for pleasure and nothing more, that God cares nothing about my happiness or theirs or anyone else's for that matter.
jgmafia 2 years ago
This then suggests that there's no magic to love then, it's just a fulfillment of a basic biological function, and so I act out my role as a genetic robot because it's programmed in my genes. This serves to reinforce that I'm just like everyone else, dust in the wind, with no more significance that any other creature who roams the Earth. I hate this truth, it bothers me so deeply I can hardly express it in words.
jgmafia 2 years ago
I realize that through this line of thought I am doing the opposite of your (probably wise) suggestion to keep it simple, but I can't seem to help myself. I am dismayed at the meaninglessness of it all, and mostly at my own insignificance. Living with this knowledge is a torture I can't seem to escape, and I will carry this burden with me to my death, when I am certain to be paralyzed with fear at my certainty of this unthinkable yet intuitive reality.

Women is a matter of tries. If you try, you have a chance of have sucess or fail. If you dont , you will fail for sure. So doesnt matter if you are not a don Juan, just dont be shy, and say whatever the shit gets in your mind. You will sure get a lot of `no` s but you will also get some `yes`. Its like this to me, and i belive its the same to everyone too.
vls174 2 years ago
Man, life is not fair. But as soon as you try to keep it`s simple. It gets easier. Even more when we talk about girls. Theres a lot of persons in this world that sucks, a lot of assholes, and they will hate you and try to fuck you for NO REASON at all.You cannot, and will not be loved by everyone NEVER. Just look at me, hell, im not a laid man, for sure im not, i have never been good with girls, NEVER. Even this way I done it... had 3 girlfriends, and some more other girls that i just had sex.

So a good way to spend your lifetime on, is spending this with persons that loves you.

My family loves me, but this does little for my self esteem. I'd love to find a girl who would make me "feel important" as you say, but for me it would take an amazing girl to accomplish this, and all the best ones always seem to be taken already. Not only that, but I'm not much of an extrovert by nature, and I have had very little incidental exposure to beautiful, intelligent, down to earth women in my life, so I've never had the luxury of feeling comfortable enough with one to make a move.
jgmafia 2 years ago
(continuing...) But when you release that, so what? I can talk of my toughs, I found joy in my life in the other, having good persons around me, persons that makes me feel good, that make me feel importante to somone. Persons that make me feel necessary to life the next day. That make me feels like I want to act like a man. I want to be able to do things, to fight, to make it trough the difficults. My girl, make me feels like this, theres a lot of persons that make me feel like this.
vls174 2 years ago
Yes it is pointless, totally, nothing that you get in life have a real valor in the end. So we should just go and do whatever makes us feel good at the moment, so have the more sex you can, eat all the shit you want, cause thats the best pleasures of life. But we all need goals, small mindeds need simple goals, but who has once really reflect about why we do the same things we do everyday, will get to the conclusion that its pointless.
vls174 2 years ago
I ate all the shit I wanted and guess what happened? I ended up weighing 330 pounds at age 20. I did eventually lose most of it, but you can never look even AVERAGE naked after something like that without multiple surgeries. (I've had two and it would probably require 3 more if I wanted to approach normalcy.) As far as the sex goes, that carries with it the risk of unwanted pregnancies and VD, not to mention broken hearts. Besides, this is only a temporary joy, not real enlightenment!
jgmafia 2 years ago
I know how you feel. It's not whining. It's realizing and accepting the truth instead of ignoring it or pretending it doesn't exist. Personally I have no interest in anything. Nothing really drives me. I don't know why. Like you, I thought music would save me. But I didn't (and don't) have the necessary drive to succeed in that. So now what? Does it even matter? But like robots we keep on going. Now I'm just rambling. See ya.

Allrighty, so let's hear your logical argument for God then. Somehow I imagine it won't be entirely seamless (but if I'm wrong, you may win a Pulitzer for your comment). So who's the "real God" anyway? Hold on, hold on, let me guess... Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior right? Or maybe you're in the Allah camp. I've got $50 you're gonnna say Jesus...
jgmafia 2 years ago
@suav3sito I disagree for the sole fact of God gets people off drugs and alcohol and I've seen a huge change in our lives sense we started going to church, and everyone else is happy, just not me. It probably has to do with some chemical imbalance in the brain so I might see if a doctor can fix me but what ever. I also disagree because hope of an after life is something that keeps a lot of people from ending it and keeps them going.

You know guy, you might think you are helping out Christianity as a recruiter, but the truth of the matter is, robotic boilerplate material like what you just wrote above is exactly the kind of thing that will push nonbelievers even FURTHER from Christianity. There is no magical feeling of faith that is suddenly conferred? upon finishing the final page of the Bible, a leap of faith must be taken either a. voluntarily with total disregard for reason, or b. as a result of an extroardinary exp.

Now now, let's not be quite THAT pessimistic. Sure, life feels pretty meaningless a lot of the time, but surely there's SOMEONE who cares about you- at least some of your family/friends no? Or maybe you're just like me and you're bumming that none of the ladies are interested (or that you don't have the confidence and/or superficial attributes to make them interested), in which case, welcome down to the pit of despair, sucks in here doesn't it?
