Is life just a zero sum game? Or possibly even a negative sum game where everybody loses in the end? This is very depressing for me to think about and it's been on my mind the past few days. In nature, everything needs energy or food to live, and almost everything evolved to take that energy from another life. This results in insane competition with lots of death and new life taking its places, and is solely the driver for evolution. In this struggle, the suffering of the prey being killed is balanced by the happiness of the predator eating it. The total all these experiences should add up zero in the end. But there is something in the background that negatively impacts all life in addition to this dynamic, which is entropy. This causes everything to age or decay over time. This only increases the struggle for anything to continue surviving and every living thing is fighting that aging and decay process that will inevitably win. Because of this entropy, there will always be more net total suffering than happiness in this universe no matter what. It seems that in this game we are born into, there's really nothing you can do in the end from avoiding to have suffered more than anything else, no matter how rich or poor. When death comes, it will be terrifying enough to offset any positive experiences you've had and you will feel it before you go. So you ask yourself, for what reason would a loving God create a universe like this?

Nope. Everybody wins in the end.
Everything that happens is for your own good.
Death isn't the end of existence.
God probably doesn't exist
Just try to live peacefully while you wait to die
God doesn’t interfere in our world user. It’s like you guys want the simulation theory to be correct, where there’s some redditor in a basement controlling your every move, but that isn’t how it works.
>probably
You better check it out to be sure.
All politics are based on hierarchy with the right representing alpha males and the left representing beta males. So cooperation exists but groups will fight unless one is hopeless
The physical world belongs to the devil. The spiritual world is God's utopia. Repent faggots.
for animals it is
humans can into cooperation
thats why west progressed thruogh history and achieved peak quality of life despite all
but Africa never did
1. It’s naive to assume a universe or a God cares about your feelings
2. You have zero memory of the infinity years before your birth. Let that sink in. Death shouldn’t scare you.
3. What else can you do but make the sufferings of life minimal for those around you? We’re all in the same boat. Just wait until you have kids and realize you cursed them with morality.
>mortality
Eh, both work.

should clear some things up lad
if there is a negative sum of entropy, there should be something amazing hidden in all things which brings the total back to zero. If you feel like your life is a losing game that takes more from you than what you came here with, you definitely are missing something amazing.
Ecosystems need to self regulate in order to preserve life and biodiversity.
Death is the end game, finally back to the great nothingness, no more worries.
Yeah but our tolerance for the weak(that's you, faggot) is now resulting in our degredation. Our victory was temporary.
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where "feed" and "seed" both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Feeduck and Seeduck".
Not falling for your jewish cattle ranch.
The god of abraham is not a good guy, he's a fucking cunt and I will not undermine my values to worship some kike on a stick.
Marcus Aurelius summed it up pretty well:
Live a good life.
If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by.
If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them.
If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.
>back to the great nothingness
I love this cope because it completely forgets that you came from the great nothingness. And even if you spend an infinite amount of infinities not existing, it will be over instantly and you will be born again for a few days, months, or decades, but there is no respite. You WILL NEVER escape existence.

If Europeans still followed paganism you’d be no different from the African or Amerindian’s you claim to be superior than. Christianity was unironically one of the best things to happen to that continent and shouldn’t be blamed for the reason why pagans are a bunch of neurotic weirdos who’d rather watch videos on how to be an ‘alpha male’ and develop ‘hunter gatherer eyes’ than seek something beyond themselves.
watch dominion 2018, all your answers are there
>will be over instantly and you will be born again for a few days, months, or decades, but there is no respite
Is this a Big Bang/Big Crunch theory
No.
There is only one life, and everyone lives it the same. We are all just life experiencing itself but really it's only one life so we can all experience the same thing. My point is point of refference, give a starving man bread and he will feast on it like honey, give a rich man bread for diner and you have insulted and hurt him. The point of reference moves and there is an objectivily the same amount of pain and pleasure into each life. When we die we return to the original state of eternity, returning to God. If you want to know how it is to die remember how you felt before you were born.
TLDR do literally anything you want, in the end you will just contribute to this Greatest Story for Gods entertainment who gets to read it thru us.
More of a consciousness can't not exist theory.
It doesn't really matter what the universe around us does.
Talk to Christian scholars and Pastors and they will answer your questions. Research Sadhguru and Chris Langan. There is a lot of logical evidence for God and why the world is the way it is.
What I believe is this; God doesn’t interfere in this world unless you personally reach out and ask him for protection and power so that you can fulfill your purpose. It’s not enough to ask for protection to simply live. You need to be doing something very important with your life like creating something great to change the world or maybe teaching children.
I don’t know you but I love you. God bless us all. Hopefully we all find the way, live happily, and become saved.
You expect a loving god to make everything immortal. How sane...
Proof?
the sun adds almost infinite energy to our life cycle
Midwit theory, they thing sounds profound
