It takes a lot of explaining, it's just that even after people have read my book they still can't believe it, even though they can't find anything wrong with it. Al they're able to say is: "You can't just figure out the Meaning of Life like that and then write it down". I'm just wondering, WHY NOT? Every question has an answer.

There's also illogical forms of reasoning: fallacious reasoning. Also, emotional reasoning (Don't ask).

The question ??What is the Meaning of Life??? is vague, so in my mind translates to ??What is our reason for existing in this world??? which can be answered by looking at what we gain through living. Unfortunately, at first glance it appears as though we achieve nothing. Even our memories of experiences cannot survive death as they are stored within our organic brains. So what does? Before I answer that I should make it clear as to why I believe I am in a position to answer it. I am here because I wanted to be, no one else would have possessed a motive for putting me here, and therefore I have a reason; so I should know what it is, right?

I don??t believe that the reason for life is present in this life because this life is finite, and a series of finite causal events are inevitably meaningless and therefore unnecessary. So, as I have previously stated, the answer to the Meaning of Life can be found by assessing what we retain after death. This would rely on there exiting an afterlife of course, which I believe must exist because it is impossible for our consciousnesses to cease to exist completely. I believe this to be so because we would have needed to exist prior to obtaining an organic body in order to decide to obtain an organic body, and that would mean that the conscious can exist separate of such a body, and also due to the fact that non-existence doesn??t actually exist. Therefore, the meaning of life must have something to do with our consciousnesses.
