If anyone reads this and relates give this a reply and let me no I’m not the only one to wonder, I’ve always struggled to explain or put into words exactly how my life feels but il try. Now don’t get me wrong I’m the first to admit I live life always trying to fit in or be cool. For example working a week to buy a pair of shoes or skipping meals to buy the latest clothes,phone,jewelery. Not living life as I feel I should but instead living life like a dog being dragged along being told what I can and can’t do. But all I’ve been rewarded for my time is sociall anxiety and depression. I feel like life’s passing me by and all I can do is watch. But since I’ve given up with life and slept life away I’ve had nothing but time to ponder. What is this never ending feeling of emptiness I get that ultimately leads to my depression and isolated life? No matter how much money or success I get I still can’t shake?? I now belive I have found the cause of my seemingly never ending depression and anxiety. I’ve been living my whole life like a race. Trying to impress people and fit in rather then listening to my heart. For example I hated football in school and didn’t even no the rules but made out like I was footie mad and joined the team all to fit in with people I didn’t have anything in common with. I didn’t even realise I was doing it, I was putting my life on hold not being myself because I was scared of people judging me or making a fool of myself. I was awkward with girls and relationships because I was so used to being shown how to live or trying to be cool I didn’t no how to express myself. I knew exactly what I wanted to do and say but I couldn’t stop thinking that I’m doing it wrong or I’m being weird. When in reality if I just stopped living a lie and made my own decisions, I would have met people who where similar to me and I would have been able to move forward with life. Rather then being a sheep just cruising along wondering why I don’t feel happy. I sometimes wonder if life’s all one big test, why are we alive and “free” if it’s only really the rich or people with guns who are free. How is there people alive aloud to own multiple houses while people live homeless.or why is more money spent on war then on trying to fix our problems ?? How is it fair for some to live like gods while most can only dream of living. Is this all a joke trying to test people and see who is good and bad. Or is this truly all life is about, survival of the fittest (biggest bombs win) because if it is please tell me why death is not the biggest gift you can ever get ??

Better still, contribute to it to substantiate that.

I think you’ll find I have contributed to it, I’m still waiting for you to answer my question I asked you there.
7 April, 2017 at 12:09 pm #1031943again, sorry for my not explaining more clearly, alfie.
The relevance of the Dawkins thread arises from your comment that there is no reason why we’re here. This fits in with earlier comments of yours that nothing really matters anyway – am I reading too much in thinking that you’re saying that ethics is relative??
When I say you should contribute to the thread, I mean to demonstrate your point that there is no reason why we’re here. The thread tries to push towards more clarity between us all on that point – agreement between people on this is not possible.
I have answered all questions you asked, to my knowledge, though the answers may not have satisfied you.

Sorry but I don’t remember saying anything of the kind. You might be mixing me up with Freddie Mercury who once sang it nicely in a song, I think Madonna did too. Seems like you’re putting words in my mouth there, please quote me and make me look stupid please, but I really don’t remember saying that.

You havent. It seems you’re the one who needs to re-read the Dawkins.
