Finding Meaning in Life... Rick and Morty style

[Chizzang]

In the world of Rick and Morty,
existentialism has an intrinsic and congenital value
in that we are here and now so we might as well find joy - even though - we cannot find meaning

Season 3 begins in December

So does that clip sum up the Chizzang Philosophy of Life?

[Pwns]

Every one of us plays some unmeasurable role in society even if there's no trace of us 100 years from now.

You can save a unexceptional child from drowning 800 years ago and create a new timeline where a nuclear apocalypse happens 30 years ago. It's called the butterfly effect.

Asking these questions is like being on death row and worrying about technical aspects of your last meal. Who cares. Just sit there and eat it.

So does that clip sum up the Chizzang Philosophy of Life?

Mostly... Yes
Religions attempt to do the same thing that this video explains
in that we find joy and meaning by "commune" with our brothers and sisters and family and friends

The only difference is Religion makes claims about eternity and immortality
and assigns all mysteries to a specific Cosmic Santa Claus character

Keep the commune part and the find joy part - skip the santa claus and eternity



And none of this means there isn't a God
I'm not saying there's no god...

Reminds me of the old joke: What's the difference between a dyslexic atheist and a dyslexic agnostic?

One says there is no dog; the other doubts there is a dog.

I laughed...

But My thing about Dog is...
I don't care if there's a God or not
If there is: Okay... Great
If there isn't: (same answer)

But pretending I know about God
And pretending I know what God wants
Seems like THE single largest example of "Not Getting It" there is



Then you are destined to Play that charade the rest of your life
