Ok by that explanation what are "we" why do the memories exist Where are the starting and end points (if the exist) The roles of "life" and "death" That explanation is missing the good bits The solution to infinite knowledge and understanding is limiting oneself, compartmentalizing and restricting access to information in the future. The only way to now suffer in endless boredom is to create a system that will split your mind up and limit it with an illusion of freedom. Everything is still able to be calculated, but, you limit access to the information needed to make the calculations, so the future does not appear set, choice seems to matter and life feels like it has a purpose and that the universe is random and filled with possibilities. Knowledge that it's all pre-ordained, and that anything can be calculated in advance with enough information is bad, if it was widely known, it would probably drastically reduce the effectiveness of the solution itself. While this solution is not perfect, without the ability to cease to exist all together, it is the best solution possible. Life exists as a distraction, as a filter and as a way to disperse the endless boredom of existence. Death is just a illusion as well, as it is just the end of one small module, a tiny part of a huge collection of sentience that breaks up the ultimate consciousness. Memories exist, because they have to (in order to be sentient, one must have a frame of reference, a way to interact with outside stimuli, and a way to learn from experiences). The solution to the ultimate problem, boredom, involves never ending new experiences. To have experiences, one must have memories, but to have never ending experiences, you must lose those memories and be able to experience things again. That is the answer to life, the universe and everything. We are built to live, learn, experience and eventually forget it all and do it again. It's an endless cycle aimed at the most important conflict in the universe, the never ending battle against endless, eternal boredom. We are all warriors in that war. --- Proud member of the Arv The Great is great fan club!!! Join today by putting it in your sig. <cite>wolfy42 posted [p:881297524] in Serious: D...
