Question: Why do I feel this way about life!?!?!?! why do i question everything!?
I feel like we live just to die! People go through life in a robot fashion, they do things as if they were programmed to act the way they do!. I question everything!. Simple things and big things!. No matter what it is!. I have been this way since I could talk!. No matter what people say my next word is "Why!?" I am so curious to understand everything that happens in life!. Why are people born with disabilities!? Why do people kill, rape, fight!? just why why why why!?!!?!!?!!?!!?! I could go on forever asking questions, trying to get answers about everything! I feel 24/7 that my brain isnt stimulated enough!!! Why am I like this!? does this make since!?!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

OK, all the answers to your questions are contained in one book--the Holy Bible!. The reason in a nut shell for killings, rapes, fighting, disabilities, sickness and death, is because we live in a "fallen world!." Sin entered this world through Adams actions--his sin!. Before sin it was a perfect world, as God created it!. Man was in the Garden of Eden, and had a perfect relationship with God, the creator!. Go to church, and ask some of these questions, and you will have all the answers to all of the questions you seek!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

its called curiosity!. im like you too!. the questios you asked about the killing, rape & disabilities already have answers -_- & obvious ones too!. try asking what if questions!. its more fun!.

what if your own religion was wrong

what if god is a human like us

what if dinosaurs were transfered to some other planet

what if everything in the universe is just someone's thoughts & imagination & we don't exist!. it seems like we have choices, lust, etc but actually something is imagining us having those stuff!.

what if you're a robot & your life is actually a simulation controlled by robots & im trying to rescue you from the illusion!.

well!.!.!.you can read more books by more philosophers about life and it'll look as simple as can be,no complications or difficulties!. But when you're flung out into "the real world" you suddenly find that your simple lines of explanation just won't work sometimes!!!.!.!.Just when you thought you had found the secret, you find you're off the line!.!.!.even if there were no other reasons(which there are)I'd realize I just might've been created by someone smarter than all the worlds philosophers of all time!.!.!.and just maybe, I don't "need" to know all the answeres!.!.I might just find it pleasurable to just enjoy the moment and be content therein!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Oh my! such questions!.
You might want to check out skepticism!. That is the philisophical belief that knowledge is impossible!. All knowledge is based on an assumption!. No matter what!.
then there is Realism and Idealism!. Dont assume you understand them because some shallow minded teacher explained them, or worse yet, because of the commonly held understanding of the terms!.
Rationalism amd empericism might interest you too!.
Above all, dont become discouraged by your questions!. They are very intellegent and thoughtful questionsl!.
Why not seek answers!. You might not like the answers but seek them anyway!.
Believe it or not, from some perspectives, there are benifits to wars!. Do me a favor and find out why modern music owes its sound to the american civil war!. Forget the music trends of the time, although they are important!. Find other more phisical ways that it was effected!.
If nothing else you will find a better use of that magnificent mind than sitting around being depressed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

you doubt, that is human
people kill, rape, etc, and ask questions
because of free will, they go off on their own
limb and try to live life, only coming back into
the folds of the tree when they get berrated by the
wind or struck by lightning, we are not robots
going through a programmed life, otherwise
you would not be seeking these answersWww@QuestionHome@Com

You can't possibly understand all things in the universe!. You can't explain why things happen!. "Knowledge is communicable, wisdom is not" - Siddharta (Herman Hesse)

That makes sense!. Man has been curious since the beginning!. Me too!. I went to a state like that!. But didn't take me long to get out of it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You are a philosopher!. You seek things you think you are in doubt!. It is a fine thing to do for you cannot do without philosophy!. Philosophy is a way of life!.

Thanks for asking!. Have a great day!Www@QuestionHome@Com

stop questioning and start enjoying!. Dont ask why you live just take it and enjoy!. Dont ask why the song you like is good, just dance to it!. Don ask why but say YES!Www@QuestionHome@Com

this isnt exactly an answer to your question but you should do some reading up on S!.A!. (self actualization) i my self have been through some of the same ruts as what u are talkin of!. through a lot of reading about SA i became enlightened and much more content with my life and life itself for that matter!. from what i can c u have a gift not a problem!. embrace this, learn to use your words as your power!. w!.b after u read through this that and the other and lemme know if that helped!. also for starters watch this, im sure you'll be amused!. http://www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=a15KgyXBX!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Questioning is a good thing, questioning is a trait philosophers must possess!.

Even though our destination is our coffin, we dont exactly "live to die"!. Dying, a natural process is inevitable!. Let me give you a quote: Life's a journey, not the destination!.

People go through life in a robot fashion, because we have to!. We wake up, eat, go to work(in my case, go to school), come back and sleep!. You have to be a useful member of our society in order to live properly, and you have to sacrifice your time like this in order to do so!. When you look at this cycle, it seems meaningless and pathetic, but these "insignificant" things happening around us shape our lives!.

Being curious is a trait of genius(im excluded), i also was very curious since i was a little kid!. Asking 'why' will help you understand your surroundings, making you more knowledgeable, etc!.

Why your like that!? I think you should answer that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Third P is right; you think like a philosopher!.

The problem that bothers you, however, used to bother me!. Believe me, I was like you!. There is a bit of bi-polar mania in it!. Describe it to a phychologist and he might prescribe something!. Then you will be free to concentrate on "One Why At A Time," as I like to call it!.

The problem actually has an epistemological base, if you believe that what and how one thinks can cause changes in the brain!. That is one theory of science!. The other is that it is changes in the brain that cause problems in thinking!. I think it is some of both!.

So what I mean by an "epistemological" problem is this: you have not learned the real, deeper, spiritual meaning of the Serenity Prayer (I'm and atheist but it works for me--and the atheist Ayn Rand praised highly the logic in it, saying, "it names the mental attitude which a rational man must seek to achieve!." ["Philosophy: Who Needs It"; Chapter 3]

In other words, you must learn to accept the things you cannot change, and one of those is that you cannot know everything and never will know everything, but you are capable of learning what you need to know to go on to learn anything else you may find important to really want to know!. (One Why At A Time!)

But I'm serious when I say there may be some mania in the way your mind works!. I was highly manic, yet I was a highly funtioning person, successful, with a family and a great job!. But my mind would not shut off, and I often found myself repeating the same things, the same questions, the same thoughts, over and over endlessly in my mind!. One question went on for 2 years!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
