If you could know the absolute and total truth to one question, what question would you ask?

I'm changing my answer.

What must I do to ensure that humanity survives for the longest possible time in a state of general wellness?

@stound fine game of nil

@whynottalk within a second. cool.

@whynottalk Prove it.

@whynottalk Doesn't mean shit. There is zero evidence any supreme being exists, the more science advances, the quieter "god" becomes. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

@bijouxbroussard Do you mean consciousness?

@BlueVeins Not specifically. Even someone unconscious but alive still has that life force.

@bijouxbroussard I think what you're talking about is something called "vital energy," which was widely believed to have been the driving power behind all living things and is fundamentally different from the rest of nature. As modern chemistry advanced through the first half of the 20th century though, vitalism fell by the wayside. The modern scientific understanding is that there is no other driver, and that it really is just all chemicals and electricity.

20% of the energy we get from food goes into powering our brains; when we feel like our life force is leaving, it's because that supply is cut off. As strange as it sounds, that's really all we are.

@whynottalk The meaning of life is that it ends.

@Mentalicious Washing machine ate it!
