Maybe There Are No Answers

To life's "big questions". Most of us just automatically assume that there have to be solutions to our most pressing issues, and answers to our most profound questions (ex. Is there an afterlife? Is reincarnation a reality?), but what if we're wrong about this, and the main reason why we're not making any progress at all in coming to any definitive conclusions within philosophy is due to the fact that we're not even asking the right questions to begin with?

I used to need answers. Now I'm more interested in the questions themselves and who I'm becoming by asking them.😊

People resist the Idea of God.. As long as they do then they can never come to any assurence in any answer they come up with in regard to the big questions..

@Adstar Hebrews says conviction in things not seen. You actually quoted that, so let's break it down. Conviction is faith - in things not seen means without evidence! Conviction in things not seen means belief without evidence, it aligns with the traditional dictionary definition. You say yourself that faith means trusting in God. Again, that's trust, which is effectively faith, which means belief without evidence! You have trust/faith, sans evidence. How can you not understand that????

@Richard65 He does understand it, he's just being stubborn!

@Adstar you mean you're running away.

People are just animals. It’s sheer ego that we think we are here for a purpose.

I’m just doing me thing and going happily about it. Good company, good food and drink, adventures and memories.

Everyone dies, not everyone lives.
