Who voted for this Paul Simon quote to be the number one response to the most important question in the universe?
And it's not 42 either.

I bet the guy who said 42 in the comment is kicking himself because Joe-speedy up there is getting hundreds of points off it :P

Once again Bob surprises me by showing that he has a sense of humor!
Glenn Blaylock Nov, 27 2006 at 12:47 PM
If it surprises you that Bob has a sense of humor, then you really not know him very well. It is often hard to get a straight answer out of him
ptrask Nov, 27 2006 at 07:05 PM
You're right Glenn. I don't know him very well. I'm afraid that my experience of him has been as a rather humorless bigot, with a hair across his a** about any religious opinion that he disagrees with (which seems to be all of them with the exception of evangelical christian). Thats why I always feel compelled to comment when I find something of his that I don't find offensive.

There really is no paradox. Why should I care whether, seen from a perspective of the whole universe, my life has meaning or not? Or even whether the universe itself has meaning or not.
As a matter of fact, I am alive, and my thoughts and feelings are all that I have. It's a priviledge to be alive, out of all the trillions of possible combinations of DNA, it's you and me that have hit the jackpot of being born, and being alive at this particular moment. Okay, maybe one still shouldn't call this feeling of awe 'meaning', but the fact that life itself has no meaning is not necessarily depressing. I just want to have a great time.

If it is meaningful to you then I am happy.

LowCuZn is correct: Deep Thought gave 42 as the answer but also said in order to understand the answer you first need to understand the question. 42 was the question for the next computer, Earth. Sadly, it was destroyed before it gave an answer.
dragonworm Aug, 12 2009 at 11:19 AM
I believe that 42 was the name of a club or restaurant in London where Fenny received the answer in her subconcious and was just about to relise it before the Earth made way for a inter-galaxtic bypass.

is 42 a solid restraunt?

Read the book of Job: Job says to his wife that we should not just expect good things from God but bad also. It's his creation to do with as he pleases. When and how Hitler or anyone else dies is up to God alone.

Pirate-Gal: Have you been watching the Saw films? That sounds a lot like John Kramers philosophy for life. Hmm, is God Jigsaw? Now I know why it's said 'fear God' lol.

I don't think eternal life sounds good at all, but your kind heart and sincere caring really comes through in your words. I'm sure you bring joy to those who know you. Good job.

HEY LETICHIA...psst i wanna tell you a little secret..THE BIBLE IS JUST A STORY, just like Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, and Jesus Christ...they are stories to make people feel better thats it..TODAYS RELIGION IS TOMORROWS MYTHOLOGY..
FoxyRoxy Feb, 06 2009 at 07:26 AM
O.o you guys are all like really smart huh??
dragonworm Aug, 12 2009 at 11:45 AM
Please explain: if nothing exists then surley something cannot exist because nothing exists. If something exists then nothing cannot exist. So, if in the beginning there was nothing then there must still be nothing. I doubt, I think, I am. I must exist so something does exist and nothing doesn't exist. Therefore, everything must exist and must always have done so and will continue to do so. So, is the Big Bang Therory defective? Did Logic/Mathematics pre-exist the big bang? Where did it come from?

Yes take each day as it comes. Now I'm taking each year as it comes ! My husband and I have always been generous to others and have always helped people and now since 18 years we've been doing the same but have come across a lot of difficulties and still are. And just as we are really deep down in difficulties we have taken into our care our brother(in law) who is in deep need of our help. So I've just brushed aside our problems and will try and cope and solve his problems. Ours will just have to wait !
btcdavis Sep, 04 2009 at 06:48 AM
Best answer out of all of them in my opinion

Amen. It seems we hold the same viewpoint.
