Doesn't it seem like you might eventually overcome insanity, though? Or at least phase in and out as time passes.

I'm with the notion about not knowing what death really is. Then there is the subject of existentialism where knowledge can only go so far as knowing the existence of life. A big reason where made up stories of hell and heaven, reincarnation, nirvana and the even the notion of God knows all because beyond here is really lost to us, so all of them can be credible in a way.
"Nothing" doesn't exist, because "nothing" can't be analysed. There is no truth, everything is permitted. |

Living forever would be peculiar if nothing else. In 5 billion years or so the Sun is set to balloon, killing the Earth, later the Andromeda galaxy is predicted to collide with the Milky Way, and so an immortal could well spend the rest of time floating through space. That could be quite interesting, but it's also been predicted that all matter in the universe will break down and be converted into energy and that eventually all light will die too leaving nothing but a cold and dead universe.

I believe there are universal morals/beliefs that most people share, regardless of culture, religion, or upbringing. Just normal human decencies that most people share. Based of these, and your opinions, he's my question.
You have two people. One with the urge to commit a "wrong", yet refrains from such an action. The other has no such urge and therefore commits no transgression. Example - Two priests. One is attracted to young men. One is not. Neither ever engages in such activity. The priest who has no interests/desires has an easier road. The priest with the desires uses every bit of his willpower to refrain. Who's better in you eyes/ God's eyes/ the eyes of the common good? If this example is distasteful to you, fill in the blanks. It shouldn't make much difference what situation you use. |
