Nobody deserves anything; good or bad. You're being childish, Jester

There's no supreme law of the universe stating that you can or can't, only consequences if you do or don't.Exactly, but what right do you have if rights don't exist? Literally none.It's an interesting way to think, because it turns you into an optimist. You will continue to live, and thus you choose to take action, and knowing that nobody has any rights, openings appear everywhere. Suddenly constitutions don't have much power, atom bombs seem deflectable, bullets are only gonna go in one distance with a certain amount of force. Everything you see will be objective truth seen through glasses that help you see the edges clearer. There is no god able to rightfully control you, "nature" loses its power and is lowered to our levels. You can no longer point and say that something happens in nature and thus is the right way, 'cause nature is another law breaker like us.
He's likely dead. He didn't have much time left last we spoke and he was sleeping a lot as it was. I haven't heard from him in a long time and he would've gotten in touch with me if he could.

You can no longer point and say that something happens in nature and thus is the right way, 'cause nature is another law breaker like us.Understanding the ultimate emptiness of rights, ethics, morality etc. has revealed to me that the only objective truth I can truly acknowledge without any doubt what-so-ever is that "I am."Or perhaps maybe it was the realization that the only objective truth I can acknowledge without any doubt is "I am" is what helped me to see the emptiness of rights, ethics, morality etc.There are other truths which have their objectivity alluded to by the observable mechanics of reality, such as the interdependence of reality, the impermanence of all phenomena, etc. but I cannot reveal these things as absolutely objective, as they must be deduced from a subjective perspective. That isn't to say, however, that I deny their objectivity, I merely realize that these phenomena just are how they are, and that it is my subjective interpretation of them that prevents me from establishing them as absolute.

Either you distance yourself from all things and become miserable because nothing has any value, or you choose to engage fully without caring about it. It's borderline nihilistic.The philosophy (rationalism?) shouldn't be used as a guideline to live your life. It should exist to let you know that what you're experiencing can be false, and you shouldn't be shocked by it. What it shouldn't be is a philosophy that makes you question your existence while living a content life which you feel no uncomfort towards. It should be in the back of your head so that once you realize that you've been under the illusion of being right when wrong, you'll come to understand that there exists truth outside of what you perceive. You won't be dumbfounded because of the notion that your senses may betray you._________________________________________________ __________________________________Morality doesn't exist, only morals do. Morals are for people who don't do philosophy. Pragmatic thinking leads me to think that moral shouldn't stand in the way of my ethics; ethics being my set rules for what I see is right, and what I see is wrong. Morals would make me feel bad for the guy that got shoved away for blocking the exit, but my ethics would tell me that justice was served. Ethics would tell me not to be a nuisance to other people, not to stand with a group of friends in the middle of a narrow path, or stop while walking down the stairs to do something. I don't want to see other people do these things to me, so I don't do them to other people.
