On a universal scale? Sure - your existence is pointless. But that doesn't mean you can't find meaning for yourself while you are alive. People need to stop thinking that their life has to serve a cosmological purpose to be meaningful. Your purpose in life is to satisfy what you desire. Do that, and your life is meaningful to you. The rest of the universe be damned.

my desires are determined by my emotions which are determined by my brain and neurtransmitters in it. their composition is determined by the randomness of the quantum dice aka the copenhagen interpretation of quantum physics. there is no such thing as free will, destiny, purpose, or meaning. everything, everything is a random occurrence.

But you are those neurotransmitters firing, not some separate entity along for the ride. I know that's kind of difficult to grasp, but you have control over them because you are them.

Read Daniel Dennet's Freedom Evolves for more on the matter.

yes but i cant control them. itsl ike taking drugs that alter your mind, taking psychidelics taht alter ur sense of reality. or being schizophrenic. thsoe are all changes in neurotransmitters that you cant control but control you.

i am not choosing to say it is a random occurence. i am saying its a random occurence because of chance.

Of the two options to say or not to say that it is a random occurence, the option to say was randomly selected by my brain and voiced through myfingers onto this forum.

Or you could say 'I'm a human being and I, like all living beings, deserve to be happy' and then go about with that as the purpose of everything.

if i were to believe that then that would be a random occurence. i could either believe that or not believe that, and one of thsoe options will be randomly selected. "I" and "me" do not exist.

And why is that? Just because your consciousness happens to have a physical foundation doesn't mean that everything's pointless.

it is that because that is how it is. that is the way the quantum world works, completely totally random. and quantum effects determine molecular interactions which determine biology which determine behavior in any organism or characteristic of any item.

when i say selected i mean what "number" the quantum dice have rolled

See, existentialism has never helped anyone. If you choose to say it's random occurence, well, try to be cool with that, or else don't ask us why you're depressed.

[QUOTE="thisoldman"][QUOTE="specialedpal"][QUOTE="thisoldman"][QUOTE="specialedpal"]

Work out for at LEAST 1 hour a day 5 days a week. Do heavy weight low repitions. Get yourself a protein shake. Have it about twice a day. Since youre skinny, mix the shake with ice cream and stuff. This will help you get bigger. I suggest Muscle Milk with whey protein in it.

Keep that up and in 4-6 weeks you should begin to notice a difference..

specialedpal

1 hour a day??????????????? so if i work out my biceps and triceps i do 1hand curls with a 25lber, 8-10 reps. 3-4 sets. that doesnt take 1 hour dude thats like 15 minutes.

You have to do more than just bicep curls. I work in back workouts with biceps. So i would start off with pullups. Then i would do bicep curls. Then i would do pull downs. then i would do 7's (with a curl bar you curl halfway up 7 times from the bottom, then go to the top and curl down halfway 7 times, then curl fully 7 times). Then i would do some more back workouts. Then maybe do some more curls.

You have to do more than just one workout. You also need to workout different muscles on different days. My routine is...

Monday: Chest/Triceps

Tuesday: Biceps/Back

Wednesday: Legs/Cardio

Thursday: Shoulders/traps/neck

Friday: Chest/Triceps (again)

For chest do bench press, pec flys, and dumbell press, and for your triceps down pulldowns, pushups, skull crushers and maybe a tricep machine. (i would join a gym if your serious about getting bigger).

You have to really work at it if you want it to work. But believe me if you work hard and keep a steady schedule, it WILL work.

You can google the workouts that i said for more info, you can also go to a bodybuilding website and look at their workout plans ( they also have forums, so someone might help you come up with your own custom workout plan). Just work at it and it will work, no doubt in my mind.

wow so much work. cant i just take a pill an dmagically become riped?

Lol if you want shrunken testicles and roid rage be my guest. But the protein shake will really help you get bigger. Dont do creatine though, that stuff is bad for you and it messes up your kidneys.

no, if u take steroids u still have to work out but u just gain alot faster. i want to sit and eat caek and pizza and watch TV and look like bradd pit in 6 months with no work.
