is our life just a repeated generation after generation for no reason what so ever? our we just a highly intelligent "EVOLVED" creature like dogs and so forth? or is there such a god that ignores us, that ignores our prayers to him, our begging for one another or is there just no god?

nihilism is the truth

or maybe there's a God that HEARS our prayers.

Sounds like a Deist in the making. I prefer to look at God not as some divine force, a gentle, loving overlord- but instead just a force that's present. Sole purpose to just create, it doesn't have its own mind or all knowing powers- it doesn't need to be fed prayers. It can't even hear them, it's just another force in the law of nature.

If it's just a creative force, why call it God? And can you not see that destruction and creation bring the other into being as the aftermath? If a god exists as a creative force, it should have an equally powerful sibling destructive force.

And does nothing about them.

BOOOOOOOOOO all gods suck equally and the human races purpose is to kill off the cockroaches(i dont think i spelled that right) so they dont take over when we are gone http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif)

I'd like to think that my life is a little bit more than a complex, prolonged chemical reaction. The sum of the parts is less than the whole.
