Life is pointless because humanity will inevitabley cease to exist.

All of the accomplishments do not matter and this is actually a positive... We should not feel bad about other people being better because everything is just completely pointless.

We will all be nothing, so feeling bad that you are not something is wrong imo. We should just do what we want to do.

i think it's fair to be upset about the other being better because they enjoy their life more than me and they don't find that joy pointless at all.calling everything pointless is just an excuse for losers to make themselves feel better.yet i think everything's pointless yes. :cry:

Pointless in that it does not matter, I guess... Nothing matters though to be honest, there is no meaning in life besides what you ascribe to it.

Well its not like we are imprisoned here... This is where we are us, and after that we cease to exist more than likely, not definitively though... I can not comment on that.

I do not feel that it is necessary to strive for making life better. That is nice but ultimately the same outcome will happen to the homeless that happens to the more powerful, they will cease to exist.

Oh it isn't necessary. But what else can we do? I'm not talking about spiritual imprisonment. We're just here and life is nothing but sitting out our time. Might as well make it bearable.

True I guess, but not going out of your way trying is nothing to be ashamed of considering how everything turns out.

I don't really agree that life is pointless just ebcause it ends. Something having an end doesn't mean it is ultimately pointless, if the thing has impacted the society and world in someway, than it had a point before it's end, thus meaning it was not completely pointless. If all life on ourt planet were to end, then perhaps life on Earth was pointless, but for all we know there could be other life out in the universe, andconsidering the scale of the universe it's certainly possible.

Yes but that life will end too and our sun will eventually die. Infact, I am inclined to believe that all life anywhere will end and maybe restart maybe not. I think it is safe to say that humans as a species will definately cease in existance at some point.

Piss off "Nihilist".

Not nihilism. Closer to stoicism.

Ooh. Go on...

Stoics believed that external events (i.e., the thoughts/actions of others) were beyond your control and therefore could not harm your mind or reason, and as such were altogether worthless. They also recognized the overall insignificance of life, and were also rather astute about the scale of the cosmos and our place in it.

Although they did not believe that life was pointless. The point of life (while leaving out the metaphysical picture), despite ultimately being meaningless, was to spend it living virtuously until it ended.

That's not a good argument for anything because, surprise surprise, humans live a short period of time. They may think about time in the long run all right, but they still live in the present and most of them will be dead 70-80 years from now. In that short period of time, everything you do and every accomplishment you achieve matters to you and makes a difference to your surroundings, so we should all do what we want to....wait. What was your point again?

Wow my exact point of view. If life is truly a prison, then one should try and make it goes faster. You can only do this by being successful and realizing your potential and passion.

So you're feeling down because you, one of almost 7 billion people on this planet, aren't going to make a permanent mark on the universe as a whole?

Its all about how you look at it. According to your reasoning, in just 100 years from now, your existence will most likely be pointless.
