Maybe you will! Who knows? That's kinda what meta-physics are for, to find a fake excuse that says you will, because...you might! We don't know what happens after we die. Your line of reasoning can be used not only to give up and do nothing but also to justify doing evil.

Given the choice, with the life you've got, would you do good, nothing or evil? Given that you don't know for sure what's to come after death, are you *sure* you don't want to do good?

If you're just plain apathetic, you should look at what is motivating you here, and you might want to look for motivations beyond self-gratification!

Absolutely wonderful quote Buffy, if I could, I'd give you more rep for that one. Alas, I tried but I'll need to spread some more around first.

Excellent thought...............................Infy

No motivations actually-just playing out a thought about where are we headed and is it worth heading towards?

We don't know. But we are the ones that will shape where we end up.
There is no goal, we shape our own future. Our actions will lead to events that shape our lives, as well as the next generation or two.
Those generations will shape life in such a way that will affect them and the next few generations.

We can dream, we can consider how our actions will affect those around us and future generations. We can strive to improve life for ourselves and others.

However, there is no magic answer as it is not decided where we will eventually end up as a race.

The fun, is getting there

Buffy, I wanted to give you rep too for the quote, but I am also unable to Is rep broken?
