  • Complexity of Existence
    Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience! It is very valuable to me and I appreciate your kindness. :) I think I'm still quite young. So I need to get a load more of experience and thoughts..
  • Are we “free” in a society?
    Depends on what you think of "Free" to mean. In society we need to live together agreeing on the proposals of different individuals to survive altogether for the improvements of mankind! You are allowed to be free within a limit, a border. Cross that and you might end up doing a wrong thing to someone. The simple definition of freedom refers to "being free within a certain border so our actions do not harm others in any way".

    But should all people receive the same rights in case of being free? I don't think so. All people do not have the same amount of knowledge and ability to comprehend complex problems. So the limit of freedom differs to some people. But for some people life is unfair, freedom doesn't exist in their life because there are people who doesn't allow them to be free. Slavery, Bondage... Of course it depends on which society are you living in with which groups of individuals you are living with and if being free in some sense is allowed in it. Well, but if you consider the fact that our choices are nothing more than our vision about the world created from our experience with other people, then you certainly find "freedom" to be meaningless..
  • The Future of the Human Race
    I guess, its not even possible to answer it in literary "binary". Well the question certainly judges the empathy and morality of us. A complex answer would refer to be more logical, and a simpler positive answer would refer to be more moral. So I guess it's a amazing question to discover our morality and empathy even more along with our approach to logical thinking. Noice!

    Well, of course I don't want the future generation to go extinct, we have walked a long long path, our ancestors have sacrificed a lot. But it certainly depends on how the people around the world would possibly end up being like in about an hundred years and how society would be in that moment and bla bla bla
    Why does this question even matter much? Is this a psychopath test or something? : | Too much less info for it I guess. We certainly have bigger questions to think about. Our main concern should be "Trying to develop the world into an Utopia in a hundred years!"
  • Complexity of Existence
    Yup, I do realize that it's nothing more than an assumption, because I don't have any proof of it to be true and neither i guess it's possible to perfectly explain what's the actual truth either.

    I just wrote this to ask about people's opinions on this topic and how right it can be in the case of making the world a bit less complicated for people and helping us to try to understand each other's opinions even more.
  • Complexity of Existence
    Well, I am just trying to appreciate people's opinions and try to realize the reason of them hitting to that point, that's why I use the word "perspective" wayyy to much to define their "reason" to be who they are based on their approach different scenarios and problems and how they think. as the base of their system to judge things based on their own cognitive ability based on the experience they've received .. Besides, the actual definition of perspective is too misleading and its nothing more than a massive confusion. I just meant the difference in human emotions and decision making ability based on the brain. And call it "perspective".
    And yes, of course I cannot ever be certain about my thoughts because it's just assumptions. In fact, most of our beliefs can't be proven right either except the one's that are truly "applicable". Existence of religion? Understanding if there's even any meaning to life or not? Why do we even need to, lol. The only useful part is creating a better system for society! Improving the world! well we are pretty much free to chose what we want the world around us to be like. But since it's really based on our brain, which is formed based on our experience and we are just being forced to do things by other people in society, does independence even exist : | well off-topic i guess

    Well of course! Reality is certainly something we cannot ever define, at all!! In fact, if there wasn't a perception of someone to think about something and realize how they feel about it, how will the meaning of something even exist?

    I wrote this just to acknowledge the idea that being 100% truthful in all scenarios make no sense. Sometimes you need to make people live with the lie and make them believe that life is easy.
  • Complexity of Existence
    I
    The meaning of life _only_ exists in our interpretations, as you seem to acknowledge. Could you give us some examples!of what you mean?

    Finding a reason to live, finding a meaning of life. People with different perspective and opinions about all sorts of things, bla bla bla.. It differs, right? It's because of our experience and perception. It's all we can feel, talk about, understand. All that our cognitive mind can analyze. Primarily, I raised up that idea to describe the lack of ability of people to understand reality.
  • Complexity of Existence
    There is truth in this, but it is also misleading. Our minds create reality from whatever it is that's out there, so the structure of reality is intimately related to the structure of our minds.
    , if that's what you believe, then what would you call the thing that's out there? Something absolute? Something that is only interpreted without any points of view or difference, something that has to be absolutely true, which as a matter of fact, we change, because of our perception. Is it simplistic? Actually?

    We can't perceive the world unmediated by our minds. Those who have come closest are probably people following spiritual paths - Buddhists, Christian and Islamic mystics...
    Well, they have come closer, but they raise different opinions. Besides, the true fact is we can never look above us, look at the void which is the absolute reality. We are blinded because of our minds. our perception. Meditation? Does it actually lead you to understand the actual self of the world even more? Or does it leave you to learn more about yourself? Learn more about what makes you yourself and happy and finds a meaning to life and possesses a way to fulfill life with balance? They are just trying to find a system for people to live in. That's what religions are. You are keeping yourself separated in a different world where you get the ability to know yourself better. Not others better. Not the world better. It's exploring your ownself. Not the true nature of world.
  • Complexity of Existence
    Well yes, the doubt remains because of our perception which get misleading at moments.. and certainly we do not agree with most of other's opinions. But if the fundamental property of the world doesn't exist, then how come does perception do? I mean, we wouldn't need different perspectives and differences in our mindsets and decision making to view the world differently, if it didn't have a simplistic fundamental form. Apparently, We just cannot view the absolute truth, because our observation is certainly based on the form of our minds.. But it must exist. Complexity is nothing more than a point of view and applicability.
  • Complexity of Existence
    OF COURSE EMOTIONS ARE TRULY A GREAT GIFT FOR THE EVOLUTION OF MANKIND AND FOR THE CHOICE WE MAKE! I simply defined the fact that at moments we make things overcomplicated with out perception, which shouldn't be done so. Of course there's no certain definition of how to realize the true form of things, or realizing if a person's perspective is a correct one. But in terms of it's applicability, we actually can define something closely related to the true form of things.

    Sorry, I got past the point, yeah, human emotions are one of the most significant abilities we have. It's a must for survival : D and other stuffs... But emotions also create the barrier for us to actually understand the real event..
  • Complexity of Existence
    Well if it doesnt exist, then our perceptions wouldnt even exist. It would mean that there is nothing in existence at all. And our perception is just a made up. I mean, it is certainly the perspective you observe something to be complex, right? It's your point of view that's complex, not the element you are viewing. So the actual self of things shouldn't be too disorienting itself. Putting the ideology of disagreeing in simplicity of things in people's mind won't be of any use. Rather it would be a bit nonsensical in a way.
  • Is the absurdity of existence an argument for god?
    Nahh, being more practical, it refers to the experience that led you to think that life is absurd. Well any statement that would agree with the term life being meaningless is gonna be true to be spoken, I guess. But it still depends if you are like, OHH IM A NIHILIST!!! vs a depressed individual.

    So, it depends on the situation and the individual, as always :)
  • Belief in god is necessary for being good.
    Well not really. Having such mentality/morality to perform such tasks which would make other individuals qualify you as a good person is all that takes. Religions partially do create that morality in it's believers' minds. But it also increases the difference/gap between people to some extent :)
    Besides, it's not always possible for a religion to change you to a good person. You need to be in that certain state to be so. It's not mainly religion that changes you. It's mainly how your percieve and experience it.
    that's what I think.
