CMV: Human existence is futile.​

Ah, like it says in "Dust In The Wind." Every line in that song is correct except for "nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky." Probably won't last forever either.

I believe that it doesn't matter what you do in life. Well, not in the big scheme of things anyway. Human endeavors such as developing a cure for cancer or ending world hunger are all very noble, but futile nonetheless. Maybe we'll get there someday, but does it matter? For now it seems like it does, but when our species dies out it won't. God probably doesn't exist and nobody gives a shit. "You create your own meaning in life" is wishful thinking, because your "meaning" ultimately doesn't really matter to anyone or anything but humanity at large, if that. And if it doesn't matter, it's not meaningful.

I'd love to be wrong on this one, so go ahead and change my view.

That would be the bestest mass euthanasia if nuke ICBMs or a lethal plague don't exterminate us first. Save the forest, save the ocean, recycle/reuse, preserve the planet for the next generation, kill in the name of religion, in the name of politics, blah blah. All that we do, all that we achieve, all that we think is important, all that we build ........dust in the wind.

what goes up will cum down
what is born will die eventually, whether by sudden death or natural death
