Life May Be Not Only Meaningless But

If Sub Specie Aeternitatis [from Eternity's Point Of View] There Is No Reason To Believe That Anything Matters, Then That Does Not Matter Either, And We Can Approach Our Absurd Lives With Irony Instead Of Heroism Or Despair.

It Isn't Just That I Don't Believe In God, And Naturally, Hope There Is No God. I Don't Want There To Be A God; I Don't Want The Universe To Be Like That.

The Point Is... To Live One's Life In The Full Complexity Of What One Is, Which Is Something Much Darker, More Contradictory, More Of A Maelstrom Of Impulses And Passions, Of Cruelty, Ecstacy, And Madness, Than Is Apparent To The Civilized Being Who Glides On The Surface And Fits Smoothly Into The World.

Materialism Is Incomplete Even As A Theory Of The Physical World, Since The Physical World Includes Conscious Organisms Among Its Most Striking Occupants.

If You Want The Truth Rather Than Merely Something To Say, You Will Have A Good Deal Less To Say.
