Humanity's Stupidest Question.

I think, philosophically, human had gone mad and insane. Insanity beyond human's own comprehension. Why the mad and insane? Well, human asks themselves the question 'why are we here?', 'why are we in this world?'.

Of course, human, like always, like how the genes wants it, always wanted to feel important. No matter how small. Human wanted to feel the belongingness to something called 'special-ness'. Human wanted to feel the authority and acclaim the existence of such authority, though unseen and invisible, but it is depicted (or rather 'assumed') as always 'there', the authority that makes human mind feel calm and purposeful. That question is not a question. It is a statement of confirmation! It is always feel good when somebody tells us 'You are special!'. It is a kind of drug.

There is not much to the question really. The question is just an allegory to human confirmation and self belief, about the answer that is already been defined in human's own mind. Why ask the question if an answer is solid fixed in the mind?

Philosophers asks those question -philosophically-, to understand the total meaning of life. Religion asks those question to satisfy their mind, hungry of 'good feeling'. What else can you ask for if you are, by default, came about to this world, bearing a mark of 'specially delivered with a task to do'. You don't do anything else but to live inside that 'purpose', and feel good, and continually flourished with feel good questions and feel good answers.

Then why human asks that question, particularly religious bunch? Well, only one reason - they are out of their mind.

Human should live as human, just like elephant lives just like how elephants should live. If an elephant should ask themselves 'why they are there?', well, I truly doubt it if they ever asked that stupid question. Human should see the world of now and not tomorrow. Yesterday is always nice though. It is pointless to anticipate another world to live in after this one. I mean why bother? It is another world anyway. Human lie to themselves by starting to ask the 'why are we here?' question. Truly, what human is actually trying to say is "I decide to believe that there is GOD".

Feel Good for the brain, is a free drug, endless supply!
