Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 There could be offered two mental explanations for man's unsatisfying life on this planet. One being that he is indeed undergoing some extreme form of punishment. The other, that he is merely fulfilling some small role in a larger cosmic scenario in which he is of no particular significance. (You will please note that the latter theory is not widely held, or even discussed for that matter.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
