It's literally just to see survive as long as possible and procreate. Every living thing seeks two things, to remain alive, and to reproduce. Plants, fungi, bacteria, viruses, if you can consider them to be alive, it's a bit of a complicated topic, mammals, reptiles, fish, insects, birds, humans, it's all the same. Stay alive at least until you reproduce, that's it. Why have philosophers been so concerned with such an easily answered question?
>>17439429>The meaning of life is to be aliveCircular argument
>>17439429Because humans evolved to have person consciousness. What's the consciousness point of specifically my reproducing? My children won't be me, and already my great-grandchildren will posses only a little slice of my DNA for that matter. So for me, there's no difference whether I did procreate or no.
>>17439437Not op but that's not a circular argument. Hell, it's not even an argument at all.
>>17439437>>17439445He says it's to procreate though. Not to be alive per se.
Babies first thought. It’s nice you kiddies are thinking a little bit but this shit has already been discussed to death. Try posting something original
>>17439452Post links to the archive then.
>>17439458I didn’t specifically mean /his/. Just the whole ‘we are animals’ point of view is done to death and most teenagers think about that at some point. It just shows your immaturity. Yes our base instincts is to survive and procreate, it’s just a very shallow answer to the question of how should be occupy ourselves or how do we make ourselves feel fulfilled which is the implication behind the meaning of life question. Obviously we have animalistic desires and you can chase those and be a hedonist/survivalists but what about the other %99 of our lives when we aren’t making kids and our survival is taken care of, what do we do with that time? It’s not hard to stay alive anymore, people with various medical co dictions are taken care of, making a big hole in our daily lives where we aren’t occupied with survival or procreation, how is that %99 vest spent?
>>17439429If you think philosophers haven't thought about that you are retarded
>>17439465>>17439465>the question of how should be occupy ourselvesIt isn't the question though. The question is about the endgame, the final goal of life, its purpose, not about your daily schedule or whether your hobby is based or no.>how is that %99 vest spentYou spend it the way to 1) inflict minimal sufferings on yourself 2) attain the best procreation outcome. E.g. raising your sole child alone in a small flat as a poor manual worker is not the same as raising two dozens of children from different wives in a big manor while living on interest.
>>17439478And what philosophers thought about it? The closest one was Epicurus but he frowned about recreation and wasn't familiar with evolution.
>>17439486I can’t believe you are trying to defend your post lmao. Read some more books.
>>17439429>It's literally just to see survive as long as possible and procreate.you figured it out! wow, I'm impressed>what do primitive cells do>& humanitiesthis is the level lads, it's not enough to expel the jews (christians), we must expel this niggers to, they really think they're " philosophizing", absolute fucking brainlets
>>17439491I'm not OP you idiot. My post was this >>17439442 one. Now try to find any actual contrargument instead of whining you imbecile.
>>17439495Not interested in arguing with you. I just came into this thread to point out the obvious. Enjoy arguing in circles on the internet, I hope your eventual death is painless
>>17439429MPP. Money, power, pussy.
>>17439501>huh your soooo stuuuuupid *sniffs farts* >why? you didnt tell me what should i do all the day! i love to sniff my farts and it doesnt makes me closer to procreation huh>huh your soooo stuuuuupid *sniffs farts* Edgelord cretin troglodyte.
>>17439502>Money, powerWhat's the difference? Source?>pussyWhy a separate category? Source?
>>17439429>Every living thing seeks two things, to remain alive, and to reproduceThat's stupid. Genes don't program you to remain alive and reproduce, they "wire" your brain to give you the dopamine coom. low IQ post
>>17439513Reproductive system itself exists for a reason.
>>17439507Sorry I didn’t want to argue with you. You should try being less reactive, your life will be better. Bye
>>17439518You said just the same a whole post ago you tranny.
>>17439522Maybe try anti anger medication? You seem incapable of not seething. You seem pretty far from the answers of life when you are upset someone doesn’t want to argue with you. I said what I said. Take it or leave it. Try and calm yourself down a little bit. I know it’s tough right now but a bath and a nice movie night calm Your cns. Good luck out there brother
>>17439529Lmao. Kek.
>>17439450So let's pump infants with hormones so they can procreate as soon as possible, maximizing their potential for a meaningful life.
>>17439429Meaning of life is to be a saint. No other thing brings comparable fulfillment.
