The Sum of Awe
Brought to you by the moment that spacetime began.
I kind of want to go to some sort of religious service because I can get closer into finding interesting people in real life, and I can't really find anything that I have a common idea with, and that have a common idea with me.
Basically, I'd describe my beliefs as Nihilism, but many people think that is a negative term, when really I am not all that negative.
I don't believe in objective morals (that does NOT mean I'm not respectful, I am, it just makes me tolerate others' moral ideas better, otherwise I'm an average guy)
I don't believe in a meaning to life, rather than pleasure. There are people who get pleasure from pain, so if you willingly live a life of pain, then that is by definition pleasure, so you are not in pain. Thus, I conclude everyone does things for their own pleasures.
I posit that the human species or even the entire globe is insignificant, without purpose and unlikely to change in the totality of existence. BUT we are significant to ourselves, that's what counts.
So in a more positive way, I pretty much think it's just skepticism.
Anywho, would I fit in a UU service? What do you think?
