I somewhat agree with Fryguy except for the idea that we live for ourselves and only for our own survival. You are forgetting the impact your existance has upon others, the impact your existance has on the course of history itself. Imagine if you were never born. Would the people you know be the same? Your family, what would they be like? Imagine your possible children or your childrens children. Somewhere along the line one of them could become a very important person in the world. If you never existed this might never come to be. So yes I agree we don't need a god. But don't just think we solely live our lives and that's it. I believe we all play a part in the history of mankind. Maybe our role is insignificant now, but just imagine the possibilities if you were never born! It may have a great impact on history! That's enough to keep me going. I didn't cover any of that because it doesn't have anything to do with what I said Of course we can and do affect all those we interact with and the world is different for us being in it, but I don't believe this is the reason we exist. It's simply a product of us existing. We exist to survive at a genetic level, but at the conscious level we usually have other things on our mind. We are capable of sacrifice, or choosing not to have children, or even something as commonplace as being gay. We have complex brains. We don't have to blindly follow our survival instincts, but that doesn't mean those instincts aren't there.

Sorry that was just a reply to your answer to "why shouldn't we just kill ourselves" And I thought "there's a lot more to being alive than just surviving"
I always thought what we do in life was a way important than survival, because it goes on and on way after we die. And in a sense... we are immortal.

Things you think that no one seems to agree on. The first Hulk movie was pretty good.

First Hulk movie sucked enormous green mutant balls. The second Hulk movie sucked even bigger balls because they didn't work out that noone on the planet wants to see a massive green muscly man bursting out of his trousers.
On the other hand; Vanilla Sky was a great movie! Discuss.

Family Guy is not funny. At all.

I can agree with both of those at least.

28 Weeks Later is kinda fun. 28 Days Later is retarded. ‘Infected are everywhere and one bite makes you mental. LET’S HAVE A FUCKING PICNIC OUT IN THE OPEN’

I blame it for the degeneration of television as a whole. I also blame it for the fall of televised animation.

I don't see how Family Guy is any worse than South Park. Both are highly overrated and highly obnoxious.
