Approaching my own demise--
Polizei:
Unfortunatley, X23, the answers you present do little to lighten the sense of purposelessness and panic which an existential crisis presents. It's a fine explaination for anyone who is in the mood to buckle down and grind it out like life is just one big MMO, though. The majority of people seem to accept what you're saying and most of the people with ponderings in this thread accept that mantra most of the time, too. But during a crisis, it's just not good enough.
.sh4k3n:
This is something I've been mulling over quite a lot recently as well. It's always been something that's caught my interest, this natural aspect of the human psyche to question our existence. Purportedly, these are great questions, possibly unanswerable, but great is truly a relative term, and relatively speaking, our lives are irrelevant. If there is no reason for our existence other than chance, no higher purpose to our lives than survival and perpetuating the species, and no afterlife, how does that change anything? There's nothing to be done for it. And presuming there is no eternal thereafter upon shuffling off this mortal coil, what of those who sat anxiously anticipating it?
Shaken not Stirred:
Oh thank god.
I don't want to go through what happened with...well...I don't need to bring it up. (R.I.P)
olileauk:
that goes without saying, SNS.
and actually i can draw upon my own past, but i'm not going to.

Some more things to consider,
--- Quote ---For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
--- End quote ---
Romans 2:14-16
