Questions

There are a lot of questions that pop up in our minds every now and then, and some of them simply remain unanswered. It makes it hard to really understand the universe and who we are, but it also gives us an amazing insight into the different ways of thinking.

  1. What exactly does it mean to live a good life? What is "good" to you, and how does that compare to those around you?
  2. If we are all so different, why do we have these ideal ways of living? Why are we conforming to this societal structure so naturally?
  3. What is right or wrong? How do we distinguish what is the exemplary choice in controversial issues?
  4. How do you think the human species will go extinct?
  5. How does our mind come up with some of the random/crazy dreams we have?
  6. What kind of creatures are out there that we have not discovered?
  7. Is there an ideal reality out in the universe?
  8. What are the chances of finding our one true soulmate?
  9. Would you want to know how/when you were going to die?
  10. If you had three wishes, what would it be?
