Do you think that your hope is transferable, that I would hope for what you hoped for, for example? I'm not really sure that a person can legitimately make fun of another person for not being hopeful.... about cheating death.
That's called being an adult.
I'm not really making fun of yours or anyone else's suffering. We all suffer. It's just that I have a more cheerful outlook on life in this world despite the fact that I too suffer. I actually enjoy life here as I await eternal life, not in every single experience, but overall. I go through suffering with the attitude that there is a purpose in everything here that is part of eternity for us all. I believe this existence here in this world is important and try to make this world a better place with less suffering, but I know that this isn't all there is. I have hope for existence beyond this all. Not only that, but I know it's true because God's Spirit is in me. And you'e telling me that your way is the better way to go and that I need to become an adult. Especially since, according to your definition of being an adult, not only does the world stink, but it's really just that way for no purpose. At least if I am to suffer let there be a purpose for it or why bother at all? It just stinks.
