The universe does not have to have any meaning to it as it just has to exist. So the notion of meaning is an exclusively human one. Now of course it is entirely
reasonable to give meaning to ones life. However some wish to extend it far beyond that since the very thought of spending death in eternity is not one they
wish to contemplate. Which is an odd thing to think given that it does not seem to bother the dead themselves. Also the universe is not going to reverse the
effects of entropy just for our benefit as that is not how physics works
In my experience, I’d say that the number one reason people don’t want to die is the concept of justice and moral indignation.
Evil seems to always win, and they egoistically want to right it.
The universe exists, because by definition of non existence is that it isn’t there… Which leaves us with existence.
You’re inferring that because existence must exist, that it is amoral, however, I’d point out that the structure of the argument is not alogical, therefor the structure of morality is not alogical, as morality is a subset of the whole system not being alogical.
The number one reason why people do not want to die is because of their irrational fear of death
Nothing at all to do with justice or moral indignation just good old fashioned fear of the unknown
Evil may always seem to win but were this actually true Nazism would never have been defeated
The universe was amoral before we existed and will become amoral again after we become extinct as morality is a
human construct so when we cease to exist then it will too [ assuming no other moral beings exist in the universe ]
I am very sceptical of your claim that one or two per cent of men get eighty per cent of the women
So do you have any actual evidence to support this or is it as I suspect an entirely baseless assertion
You have made the claim so many times before and I do not remember you giving any evidence then
In casual conversation with heads of the field, humans are considered 1-2% for 50-80%…
It’s never been published.
What has been published is that mammal species besides humans have not only high sexual stratification, but high birth stratification (humans have low birth stratification) what high birth stratification means in mammals is that 10% of the males have 90% of the OFFSPRING!!
Not so in humans!!
For political reasons… Sexual variety stratification can’t be published.
This is the type of stuff social scientists know but can’t release…
The lowest number I heard was 1% to 50% for sexual variety.
The studies have been done by intelligence agencies, and are classified.
Is after 3billion years in hell, I actually came back in time … I literally, not figuratively, was the star witness in the trial of all humans and ets on this world, I hope you never learn a fraction of what I know…
It’s more nuanced than those bare stats because of multiple partners…
Some of the partners in the 80% settle down with the 98% ers. … What this means is that there’s OVERLAP…
The reason I used 2000, is because the average person moves through 2000 people in a lifetime as acquaintances, which is not as much as our “meet and greets”
