you are content with your own actions

and how youve treated other people

Ugh

right but why does anything have meaning?

like what's the point?

beliveing there is nothing on the other side

the motivation has to be something that transcends life itself

otheriwse we'd all just be destrutive

I don't know whether I should be living a life of schaudenfreude and gain, or fight for a future I deem 'moral'

that you can be content with yourself

like, you believe that life will continue after you die, why should you believe that?

why isn't it just as practical do say that your consciousness is existence itself

You should believe that all humans are deserving of dignity and fight for universal justice.

Nah.

because the very nature of a sentient being transcends ones own life

and without your consciousness existence stops, because if there's no afterlife, or no transcendence, isn't it the same?

it doesnt have to be some eternal improvable beleif

to transcend the only measure that one person can have

and that is one life

thats all it takes

This is stuff I tackled back in high school lol

alas

transcendence itself implies a departure from reality

i am not the only person on earth

so that's the divine

no

why not?

a departure from your individual reality

that is all you can confirm

why should you believe any other exists?

Why would you depart that?

to do so is to have nothing but faith

any sort of reach outside of that will never be known

and if having faith in the divine is silly, so is having faith in subjective reality

Wat.

lol

nonono you misunderstand

one individuals reality can only be defiend by what they themselves perceive

so

but why? by what right?

what is the force that makes this so?
