    That’s an interesting take. Strikes me as a bit nihilistic, but I’m sure this is the most surface of explanations lacking the depth of concept to really get the idea across. I can’t say it jives with me, but I have heard less reasonable notions.

      Yeah I find it interesting how many see the idea as negative. I find it freeing in many ways and it helps me make much better sense of the world and people, I think.

      Sam Harris can explain it better than I ever could in case you’re interested.
