Who says Jay Z and Will Smith are more successful than me @ Godbody
Society? Surely it matters more if you consider yourself more successful not what others think. Besides I don't have huge lips like Jay Z so im definately more successful!
My view? Born die the end.

Earth isnt really perfectly placed. The law of large numbers dictates that conditions would be right somewhere in a universe as vast as ours is. Now were finding millions of planets that exist in "habitable zones" that could be placed where life could potentially thrive. I think its foolish to think we are the only intelligent life in the universe. Possibly in our galaxy, that's yet to be seen. But there are billions of galaxies, the closest one to us is Andromeda and its like 100,000 light years away. We will never explore it. Not even close, but could life exist there? Maybe. What about in one of the other billions of galaxies with trillions of stars each with orbiting planets with orbiting moons. The numbers are just staggering and impossible to even comprehend. Couple that with the fact that we could potentially be one of infinite universes? We can only speculate and unfortunately thats all we'll ever have. Just go outside, look at the stars, and find your own meaning. We have no purpose, but meaning. Meaning we can make for ourselves.
Aight, I'm gonna go beat off to internet porn again.

This is what I believe in.
I don't believe in "God" first of all, before organized religion humans only had faith. Faith derived from fear driven by the fact that they didn't know where they were going to go when they died. Someone came along instilled their own dogma on groups of people (I.E. There's power in numbers) Others soon followed, etc.
My faith is simply that there's is something greater then myself, which might have created the universe or at least know how it was created. Whether it was planned or happened out of pure random but seemingly planned circumstances, it doesn't matter. I understand that I'll never be able to fully comprehend how it happened and I'm content with that. I also can never fully accept that my conscience with cease to exist because my heart stopped pumping. Life would be pointless if were born to simply die, with nothing to contribute after we have physically passed on.
90% of our cells have their own microbial DNA that aren't "us'. The atoms is our body are 99.99_% empty space and we weren't born with them, they came from the belly of a star. We have 46 chromosomes, 2 less then the common potato. etc. etc. etc.
In conclusion the odds are really stacked against us as far as being "special" or here for a purpose beyond existing just to exist but why would we have a conscience and have the ability to create organized religions that have comforted billions of people throughout the history of our existence. Also, before organized religion we had the ability to create beliefs that benefited the community we resided in. We've collectively done incredible things, created amazing gadgets, as human beings. We might not even be here for a reason but dammit we'll make our own and live holding on to that hope.
