    What about those of us who hate everyone and are hopeless at making loot? Are we here just as filler?

    This is largely true. My Zen master has said that the more conscious and less unconscious someone becomes, the more they turn into an incarnation of love itself, with life as an ongoing celebration rather than an affair of pure sorrow and coercion.

    We are not “put here” on Earth.

    Life is an accident of biology. There’s no grand purpose.

    I try very hard to love my neighbor as I love myself. But some of them make it very challenging to do so, as they’re quite vocal about what should be done about people like me who disagree with them at times. . . /s

     Quantum physics and related theories say that the act of observation changes what we see just by the act of looking at it—so much for objectivity being able to show us the unvarnished truth. The idea that both the big bang starting it all with a beginning and an end -and the concept that we have always been and always will be are both correct is mind boggling. Everything is important and not important. There is no logic for any of it to exist-and yet, here we are, sentient beings using logic to try to understand the meaning of our existence. That a prayer may be answered before it is prayed hints of a place where there is no time. We are all energy, our thoughts are energy, and we are all connected in the creators’ matrix. So maybe we can’t recognize the real logic, reason, and morality—- but we live in an intelligent design, we are intelligent beings, and we will continue to wonder as we wander.
