[automatic existence]

Well, i have a hard time viewing existence as positive or negative. I believe that is only your choosen values. Some see death as a good ting other see it as bad. We all make what we like good and the opposite bad. Anyway, I see your point, and I agree to some extent. I went through the period I believe you to be talking about not so long ago, then it was based on emotions and the fact that what i had did not correspond to what i wanted. Then I also saw my view as pessimistic, but now things have changed. I have started wandering into the fields of gold, or the fields of science and got a lot of new perspectives. Affective neuroscience for example removes all the legitimacy of emotions which is a big blow to our society which are built around them. The disturbing thing, from my point of view, is when you put your wishes and your ego aside and look for answers they will be found to some degree. I think alot of people are afraid of those answers. Not in any conspiracy kind of way, but simply that even scientists refuse to take the consequences of their own beliefs.

I will certainly have a day, but neither good nor bad. I wish you, on the other hand, a really good one.

BTW. I must say that I am mightely impressed over the quality of the forum.
