    We're bacteria

    I am being philosophical because we're talking in a Philosophy forum, of course

    I don't litter, even though I feel that in the long run it won't matter at all. I'll pick up trash if it's in such a spot that I feel motivated to. I mean, I definitely wouldn't enjoy it personally if there was a nuclear armageddon or something but... I know we're all going to die eventually, and if it has to happen, then why worry about the particulars of how?

    think about it. (most of this theory from joe rogan)
    bacteria reproduces-its main goal in life
    and it just keeps growing
    and its never alone
    if its alone it eventually dies out
    people cant be alone either, we must be around other people
    we need family and friends
    when people are bad they go to jail, away from other people to be lonely as punishment
    but even in jail we arent alone

    if you become truely alone you become sad, lonely, depressed
    and want to kill yourself

    bacteria, when attacked, becomes stronger and more immune to what tried to harm it.
    as do we.

    if you were a completely other life-form flying over Earth that is all we would be seen as
    a bacteria like species crawling around the earth , growing bigger and bigger

    until we cover this earth and must move on to a new planet
    Okay 1: we are way more complex than bacteria
    2: just because you can draw vague similarities between humans and bacteria, does not at all mean that we're very similar; it just means that a few aspects of human and bacteria life are similar. That's all.
    3: science isn't real? Ok I'll leave that to you..

    dude this is so true. i've been thinking of life like a pointless ratrace...watching people on the subway and looking into their minds. they wake up, bring their kids to school, go to work, whatever but like they're like little ants or creatures. Bacteria may be an over-reaction but yeah I agree man. AND like, I think thats what people find so comforting about religion. you know?
    :hippy:

    We're bacteria

    There is nothing that exists that is not a life form, or that does not contribute to the form of life; everything that exists is a life, and alive.



    The symbolic re-representations of life are infinite, from the seemingly unpredictable quarks and gluons to the seemingly unpredictable nations and organizations.

    From the orbits of atoms and ions to the orbits of stars and planets.

    From the cellular division in organs to the Social cliques in Highschool.



    All of reality recreates itself in every example and representation it can, on one level or another, macro or micro from our perspective is irrelevant; what reality is, is a self repeating all encompassing infinitesimal omniversal universe. bodies building bigger bodies, building bigger bodies; collections of bodies building ecosystems, building ecosystems, building ecosystems; ecosystems building elements, elements building environments, environments building bodies, bodies building ecosystems, etc.


    It just gets infinitely bigger and/or smaller. more and/or less complex.

    Until we reach critical mass and reverse polarity.


    and then it just does the same, only mirrored.

    We're bacteria

    I see this view a lot. We are a virus, a bacteria, or some other thing with overall negative connotations.

    I think there is something powerful to be found in maintaining an optimistic view, and nothing to be gained by thinking of ourselves as essentially scum.

    I like ideas like we are the universe trying to understand itself. There is more hope in it.

    The opposite of cynicism is not naivete. It is hope.
