I believe the true meaning of life is nothing; everything we are now is from a coincidental chemical reaction. Any meaning that one would try to assign could only be artificial, with no factual basis. Thus, everyone assigns their own meaning that is most convenient for them. Most people tend to see themselves as helpless and dependent when faced with the challenges of life. Therefore they seek to overcome their problems through imagination; they imagine or project an idealized being of goodness or power that can help them. The human mind thinks in such a way that it can't, or rather won't, comprehend the parallel nothingness and infiniteness of the universe. So to avoid logic conflicts, the human mind will artificially assign value, meaning, purpose and order where there is none. Christianity, like any monotheistic religion, is completely made up to satisfy human's inherent insecurity about themselves, life, the afterlife, and the universe as a whole. Humanity is not created in the image of God, but God is created in the image of idealized humanity. People seek in heaven what they cannot find on earth. The entire bible, and any religion really, is just mortal man grasping for a reason to live. |
My Life So Far: I've been into photography for most of my life and have recently come to enjoy "playing" Web page designer here on this site. Having gone back to college as an adult afforded me the opportunity to explore many of the joys that I have come to know over the course of my life -- travel, the arts, ancient cultures and maps. I enjoy camping, hiking and backpacking. I collect stamps, enjoy meeting new people and also take pleasure in reading a good book.
Endless Possibilities: Hang gliding, skydiving, hot air ballooning, taking a safari in Africa, rummaging through a good yard sale, and traveling to Costa Rica. |
Honesty, communication, compassion, and a sense of humor are the top qualities I look for in a guy. I love guys who are easy going, and can be comfortable in most situations. The first things I notice in a guy are his smile and his eyes.
Physically, I'm most attracted to tall, thin, blonde-haired, blue-eyed guys, though I'm open minded enough to not always let looks get in the way. Shaved body hair can also be a real turn-on. A goatee can look very sexy on some guys, though I think most guys look better with clean shaven faces. |
