And therein lies a huge mistake. If you "overlook the other reasons" then you deliberately blind yourself to parts of the world that you wish wern't there. Just because you can't cope with something doesn't mean you can wish it away. If you continue down this path of 'overlooking' then you doom yourself to make the same mistakes over and over again.

This topic has been very interesting and enlightening. Thanks everyone for those who responded, most of you have change some of my perspective towards life.

If I offended anyone by posting the religion question part, then sorry.

Glad to hear this post has proven productive for you.

I don't think anyone was offended, just that we are not permitted to carry discussions on the subject matter at this time.

Well that's fine. As a future politician I'm glad that your definition of hope makes you so vulnerable to manipulation.

Hierophant, if you want to exchange philosophical jabs with Intrepid take it to pm's.

No, Intrepid is fine. We have different ideas, but nothing irreconcilable. YOU on the other hand are someone that I will 'take it to pms' with...

Yeah there is hope people have made it this long with some problems, I don't see why we can't make it another 96 years without much trouble. What you said about life being boring and simple, life is what you make it, I can't say i'm the most positive person in the world acctually i'm quite pesimistic. I used to have some simular idea's about life as you. So I can see where your coming from but if your judging all this from what you've seen in highschool, not saying thats just what your basing these idea's on. But if you are your wasting your time don't read to much into what you see in school.

BTW- who wants to get to mars anyway we landed on the moon forever ago, and whats that got us.......
