Sorry I shouldn't have presumed you were devoid of ignorance on the topic. My apologies, it wasn't that you weren't paying attention, it's just that you have no understanding of such issues.


Are you sure it's lack of understanding? It could quite possibly be that he or she simply finds the issues irrelevant.

I don't suppose there is a reason I'm here...not an ultimately cosmic reason, anyway. I'm here because I am and I make my own meaning as to why staying here is valuable.

I'm here to make people chuckle, piss off Tea Partyists, pursue a career in acting, and better the lives of everyone around me whenever I can.

That's just me though. No ultimate or objective purpose. That's just what makes me smile and what I'm inspired to do.

EDIT: Oh, and to find some booty.

What if I told you that the existence or nonexistence of deity is irrelevant and that, indeed, this whole discussion is irrelevant? So why am I involved in the discussion? Because I love the irrelevant.

This is the most circular conversation ever. Go ahead, presume something. Maybe it will generate actual debate.

It actually was relevant because he said God made everyone with a purpose.

The inner workings of your mind and the logic leaps you make aren't relevant to the thread. I do apologise.

Logic leaps huh? Here's a recap of our conversation.

A purpose is like the point of your existence. It's not necessarily the point of her existence. It's something she uses her existence to enjoy, but not the absolute point of her existence.

Is this the logic leap?

It's something she has said would class as her purpose.

No that's what you said.

Is it here?
The Sotoan Union wrote:
White Spider wrote:
An existentialist would have no problem with that at all. I take it you don't subscribe to the philosophy

That doesn't have anything to do with the fact that I have been paying attention, contrary to your belief.


It can't be here can it?

Here is where our circular conversation starts.

So where is my logic leap? Are you sure it's not just you being intolerant of other people's opinions?

OK guys, everybody knows the answer: our parents thought it was a great odea to make love. So they had a very 'intensive' evening and 9 months later we were born and we'll probably do the same in some years.

That's it.
