1. How would you define happiness?
An unattainable state of being.
2. What qualities make a person successful in life?
Accomplishing selfless goals.
3. What qualities make a person a good person?
Treating others as one would want to be treated in kind.
4. Are there any absolute or objective standards of right and wrong? If so, what are they?
One would think so, but it simply isn't the case for any absolute standard of right or wrong to exist. For instance, if it was absolutely wrong to kill, we wouldn't kill people during war time and we would not kill people via the death penalty.
5. At this point, what is the highest priority of your life?
Simply to live it as stress-free as possible.
6. If someone asked you to explain to them your philosophy of life (what you live by), what would you say? What reasons would you give to justify your answer?
I do not particularly subscribe to a philosophy of life. I simply live it from one breath to the next.
7. What is your view concerning the existence of God or the nature of ultimate reality? What reasons would you give to justify your answer?
God does not exist. Reality is simply that which exists without disagreement; i.e., we can all look at a tree and agree that it is a tree.
8. In your view, what is the most basic or fundamental human problem?
That's a tough one. I can probably narrow it down to two issues: capitalism and religion.
9. Is there a solution to the most basic human problem? If so, what is it?
Yes, properly educate people in order for religion to subside in relation to its irrational sway over people. Also, eradicate the monetary system and remove the socio-economic divide that breeds corruption and disunity.
10. What question do you most wish you could answer in your life?
When and how will I die?
An unattainable state of being.
