Reply #212: It already is meaningless

[cyborg_jim]

Anyways, to answer the question, simply because if humanity knew the truth about existence and the nature of reality, our "jobs", our "families", our "possessions", our "lives" would be meaningless.

They already are. They have meaning only because we give them meaning. You're wasting your time looking at atoms to see if they give a shit.

I believe ESP, telekinesis and other mental powers can be learnt as they are inherent abilities in humans, just as breathing or locomotion is.

And I believe I could turn back time if I could fly around the world backwards.

Belief and $5 will buy you a pretzel.

Humans would never settle for 9-5 jobs, would never settle for living the existence we do, if we could reach for anything better.

Ah. So your belief in ESP, TK and other 'mental powers' is based on some notion that suddenly everything would be better and different and that we wouldn't end up in a world where having ESP and TK would pretty much put us in a world much like it is now but with ESP and TK.
