Ask an Absurdist

I decided to make one of my own. Many of you know my philosophy of "facts require facts require facts, therefore it is best to be completely nonsensical". I will apply that to my answers. It's actually a philosophical statement if you think about, or it isn't and it's a bunch of rubbish, either way it means something. Please attempt to stay within a political/social level.

This is the only one I will make, and if it turns spammy, I will ask for it to be locked.

Religion is often about unity, however to obtain unity one must exclude others in order to preserve the order. Thus, religion should not be taught in schools because it would threaten the religious unity.

What is the meaning of life?

I will address the meaning of life. Life is essentally without meaning. People search give it meaning by doing various activities such as gaining knoweledge. Since people give life a meaning, it has one. Therefore is life is meaningfully meaningless.

What's God's last name?

God is the supposed creator of the universe and of reality. However, people often "create" their own reality, or at least interpret it differently thereby creating their own for all practical purposes. Since that is so, god's last name is your last name.

Enlightenment involves finding inner peace or by attaining knoweledge. Humans don't care much for either one, so in short you cannot acheive enlightenment.

Hello. I'm trying to write a report for school on my future career.

I have no hobbies, interests, desires, goals, or friends. Everything is equally pointless and/or boring to me. I am capable of doing pretty much any task once trained to do it. (Except drive a car... for some reason going 75 mph six inches above a slab of asphault scares me a lot.)

What the hell should I do with myself?

Move to either Cuba, Vietnam, North Korea, China, etc. Work all day and not have to worry about your free time, cuz you ain't got any.

Actually, I have three things I would like to see in my lifetime, but all are pretty much impossible except one.
1) The disbanding of the UN.
2) The commie regime in China DIES.
3) Hugo Chavez dies. Will eventually happen, probably just not in a timely manner.

Now tell me what I should do?

Go assasinate Hugo Chavez, and then convince the U.N. that China did it. Escalate tensions like any good Bond villain (primarily by laughing and stroking your pussy. No not that one! Get your mind out of the gutter) until the U.N. attacks China. Once all U.N. member nations are hopelessly embroiled in conflict, steal launch enough nuclear missiles at the area to decimate all involved. Blame this action on the U.N. (How, How should I know How? You've got to think at some point during this job to) and watch as everyone abandons it faster than rats abandoning a thing that rats don't like. Meanwhile, the Chinese probably won't have enough of anything left to have a regime, and your list is complete.
Then go write the paper about how you plan to become a gay pornstar, but you aren't really gay because you're only doing it for the money and it is just as disgusting a job as working at McDonalds anyway.

If you find life to be boring, then act against your skills. The unfamiliar will keep you occupied.

They essay on gay porn bit or the nuking China bit? I'd assume that you were going to go for the whole assasination/espionage/nukes/war stuff, but then you never know what some NSers want to do.
