Thanks! Loved the songs you had linked, esp the drums. Deschooling sounds very close to what I assume will be required to cope and thrive with nihilism. We are given some very shallow arguments to 'keep going' mainly centering around, 'You need to be successful/find a succesful partner/Be the next einstein'.You only need to go a couple of steps deeper, to realise that these statements are hollow and incomplete. I'm not saying one needs to have a why to do anything at all, just that it needs to be understand that there is no answer to that why. Otherwise it is no different from religious dogma that crumbles at the slightest questioning. Thanks for the aweosme links, gonna check them out one by one!
- ZenoArrow 10y agoGlad you liked the songs! Would be interested to hear what you thought of the other videos too (even if you didn't like them). Whilst I can see that you're looking into nihilism, it's worth knowing that nihilism isn't the only alternative to conventional views and religious dogma. To start this exploration, let's look at reincarnation. My favourite way to look at this is... If you eat an apple, has that apple been reincarnated as a human?
