How does one play God? When presented with such an opportunity does one take it? And if so, how does one cope with such a decision?
I have no answer to most of these questions, although I find myself wishing I did. Is doctor assisted suicide morally alright? Is suicide? Is murder? You are taught as a child that murder is wrong, be it in religion or through law. However, why is it permissible to murder during war? Why is murder fine if it works for the greater good? Why is losing hope the worst option possible? I'm not sure, I wish I knew but I can not even begin to answer these questions. They seems to be forever lost in a sea of many eternal questions. For instance, is there a soul?
How does one break away from social ideals and break apart a family for the greater good? And how can one person not see themselves as murderers when it is so evident it's biting them in the ass? The real question is, why are there so many questions?
I'm not sure, about anything. I thought I was but I suppose not so much. This semester has been a real eye opener, I just wish I still had my "mentors" to help me through this but I pushed them away, per usual. Oh well, this is how I will sort out all my thoughts, I suppose, until I come to a reasoned conclusion. Welcome to my blog about philosophy, life, politics, history, general musings, and complaints as I'm on the path for self-actualization.....
