J.P Moreland - Is there meaning to life? (part 8)

"There is but one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy."

-- Albert Camus

Regardless of your Religious beliefs, or lack of, everyone in their life asks the big question - ''Is there meaning to life?''

Don't confuse what you find meaningful in your life with - is there actual meaning to life.

If there is no ultimate meaning to existence, then right and wrong, mean nothing. Whether it's an act of 'Evil' or an act of 'heroism' and self sacrifice. Ultimately, one action is no different to another, it will just depend on how you, and the society in which you live in interprets it.
