2. I believe

rights, value, law, organizations (governments, Boy Scouts, etc.), countries, etc. are nothing more than rhetorical constructs designed for persuasion and the promotion of relatively predictable behavior. In other words, they're strictly imaginary.

I often wonder if there is an objective difference between living and nonliving matter.

I don't believe in gods, alien contact with Earth, or anything like that. I think we're functionally alone at this point in time.

So, I think we should do our best to take care of each other and make this life as happy and fulfilling as we can.
