I predict some people wont take this as seriously as I feel about it right now, but without a doubt the number of the "above average" in terms of intelligence is a lot within these posts (or so i think),
I'd like to ask just a few things, you may just as well post your own questions too.
---------------------------------------------
1. Why do we exist
2. What's the higher goal in being here
3. Deja Vu. Why can you somewhat see the future, and why not be able to change it.
---------------------------------------------
And I realize how these things end up with no answers but I've found them very interesting to discuss and thought you folks might too.

(the state of which i am at now is somewhat of a temporary high which is why im posting this, just in case you wondered.)

1: Who cares. I'm happy I got my chance to be here, so I'm gonna ride out this existance thing as long as possible. If we were meant to know why we were here, we'd know by now. Otherwise, we are left in the dark on purpose... so we can live like we do.

2: Goal... We seem to be programmed with certain basic needs that we must fulfill to keep us alive. Plus, we have mechanisms for creating pleasure, so we have incentive to pursue those avenues. My goal is to have the highest pleasure-hour total possible, by having fun and living a long time. This is a balance between having fun and doing things to sustain life. Some of us think ahead and allow ourselves to be put in better positions for fun later.

3: The deja vu is merely a misfiring of brain chemicals that normally go off when you have a recollection. The chemicals sit around in your brain long enough to fool us into thinking we've been through those circumstances before.

Thus, my outlook on life.

3. Ahhh deja vu, I dont think its really seeing into the future. I think its more like crossing paths with yourself in another dimension and slightly remembering something that your other self had done or seen.

I've always heard that deja vu is a brain glitch, where an image from one eye is processed just slightly before the same image from the other. Sounds like bs to me, since whenever I experience it, I can usually remember just when it happened before (usually something on tv, or performing an action, or reading something I'm sure that I haven't before).

1. There is no why.
2. There is no higher goal.
3. Deja vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

1) We exists only as a result of chemical reaction. There is no purpose to our existance, it's all purely coincidental.

2) The higher goal in being here is merely to reproduce and to further our species. This sounds like a single minded attitude but when you get down to it we're very similar to ants only we have a far higher feeling of self-worth.

3) Who know what the hell deja vu really is. I've been told all sorts of stuff like "your entire life and future is completely pre-mapped and planned, and deja vu is a peek into what's going to happen" and "It's a flash from the future via a tri-dimension sphincter" blah blah.

But that's just my opinion. :-)

You have to realise that someday you will die. Until you know that and embrace it, not fear it, you are useless.

You have to be able to answer this question:
if you died right now, how would you feel about your life?
