let me put it another way: why do we exist? why are we here? where did we come from? is Darwin's theory of evolution correct? maybe we're a happy accident? i've heard a few interesting theories about this, some saying we didn't evolve from apes which means we either evolved from something that no longer exists or we were 'placed' here somehow (aliens!). i've heard another theory that we were created by a 'supreme being' similar to a wizard (no joke) and that our point was to serve. that same 'wizard' magically created stone structures and a dragon, and then completely disappeared. then again i can't remember all the details of the theory, so i may have gotten it wrong.
the shit you talk about while stoned. i think it's all fascinating though.
oh yeah, and to those saying "we exist to multiply and ensure the survival of our species/enjoy life/there is no meaning", i agree. i mean, in a way they're all correct because it's true. we do need to reproduce in order to survive, we should enjoy life, there is no meaning because life is chaotic and we are nothing special. well, we are special, but in comparison to the entire universe we aren't anything special. thing is, even if i agree with all that it still doesn't answer my question. why are we here? even if there's no definitive point to our existence, where did we come from? why have we evolved beyone all other animals on our planet?
confusing. maybe i just talk shit.
