The same applies to this ''life'' that we have on this shitty ''planet''.
No memory, no knowledge, no mission, just a prison planet.
I won't continue this discussion in this topic heading, but I completely disagree with you, FullRangeMan, and I'm genuinely sad that you feel this way. I most certainly have a mission, as do millions of others, that we find fulfilling, empowering, and joyful. It is most certainly not based on self-centeredness, consumerism, or hedonism, and while it can be frustrating and tiring living in societies that seem preoccupied with such, there is joy in serving God and His beloved (though misguided) children.
I'll be glad to discuss further through PMs if you wish...
