The existentialism theory is much better than there is no reason, this theory states that you make your own reason to live, much more positive!!!!

Humanity has created it's own hell, in which it can not get out of.I am just being honest we as species are done for.We have nobody to blame but ourselves.Now it is a matter of playing out the end game.I used to have faith in Humanity, now I cannot stand it.Humans truly are a virus.

I am not being cynical,life is really is ful of pain.That is why I never get my hopes up about people.We realy are a self centered species that only cares about one's own personal survival.People are nice because for the most part we are comfortable.But if you take that away, you begin to realize people really are just mean nasty, and truly evil

I'm sorry that has been your experience. It's understandable that some people who have been hurt become highly defensive.
There is no doubt we live in a tension between our instincts for survival, which are necessarily selfish, and our social selves. Don't be too harsh about our selfish instincts, its what has kept our species alive for millennia. There are many genuinely loving people in the world but if you're not open to that then you probably won't find it to be true.
Humans are not a "virus", we need to learn how to balance our ability to exploit the world with the long-term interests of the planet which is more likely if we start to understand it's in our interests as well. Humans are the most altruistic, compassionate species on the planet, but we are capable of both extremes.

Cofty.Nobody hurt me.My childhood was good.For me once I left the Jw's I could not bring myself to trust people.I have friends,but even then I still like being alone.I just really have lost faith in people seeing that things will never change .We humans keep doing the exact same thing and expect diffrent results.The earth was better off without us.Now look air pollution, global warming all at the hands of humans.We kill for the sake of killing.Like I have said before I have given up on my species.I am on the outside looking in at a virus called humanty run wild.I have given up, I was always told helping people is good because it is the right to do.BULLSH*T helping people will get you never in this world.Most people say to me d you are only 20 yrs old you will see the good in people as you get older, you are basically a kid now.Yeah I do not think I will ever start thinking postive because that is not being realistic.In the words of Buddha "Life is suffering" how true that is.Get over it.

Perhaps human civilization is on a downswing for now and things may continue to be that way for a few generations to come. So wat? These things with human civilizations come and go in cycles, as we've seen in aeons of history previous. We might be headed for a certain type of dark ages again, but with every dark age there's a renaissance. The best we can do is to preserve modern history for future generations so that hopefully they can learn from OUR mistakes when the next upswing happens. Mankind is NOT doomed. Get a grip of yourself, d!
