How is it waking up in the morning knowing your life serves no purpose?
That's what make life intriguing. I have many purposes and intentions in life... none of them ultimate. Many of them where not even the foucus of my attention, but hey... why have such a subborn and willful will (seems very egotisitcal to be so willful with your life)? You miss out on too much that way. This keeps the day fresh and new for me. I simply push my rocks up Mt. Olympus and eventually that all fall back into the valley below. Never a dull moment...

The absence of all empirical evidence for the necessity of intuitive X existing is evidence against the necessary empirical existence of intuitive X - MoS (variation of 180proof)
Athesim is not a system of belief, but rather a single answer to a single question. It is the designation applied by theists to those who do not share their assumption that a god/deity exists. - MoS
I am not one to attribute godlike qualities to things that I am unable to understand. I may never be in the position to understand certain things, but I am not about to create an anthropomorphic deity out of my short-commings. I wish not to errect a monument to my own personal ignorace and demand that others worship this proxy of ego. - MoS
