The purpose is in the striving, to know pain and to know joy because of it, to find a purpose worthy of your life and dedicate your life to it.
It's not an easy thing to do. It's not supposed to be. The worst part is that it's hardest to see the truth of it in the very moments when you need to see it most.

Why do you despair and feel so broken?

Submit to God, embrace Islam, you will be healed.

Christianity is all about being a baby and being lazy low key. God loves neets.

28Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

There is an obvious emergence of awareness out of matter, culminating in increasingly complex moral judgements on the way things are. Initially, all is ontological (all that matters is the real). But reality appears instilled with a trajectory towards ethics (how ought it be). Logical conclusion from this finding is that awareness judges matter and that our goal in life is to judge what is on how it ought to be. Rejection of this purpose leads to people attempting to become mindless matter again (suicide or oblivion). Acceptance of this purpose leads to you joining the struggle over how things ought to be. You battle Both matter and awareness here, and hedonist fights ascetic, while Both battle gnawing time. So the long and short of it is this: your purpose is to judge over all. Your despair is such a judgement already; the kernel so to speak.

Serving other people, unironically. People will serve you too. You just want to judge who helps you. So you never get anywhere. You want to live your 'life' but your life is an illusion. You live with what options you have. Limited as they may be. Help others to over come this fact.

I'm not trolling, it's literally one of the perks of faith.
People make faith in God waaaaaaaaaaaaay harder than it needs to be out of some misplaced feeling of "owing it" to God.

Stfu, nigger.

Read:
- Meditations - Marcus Aurelius
- The 48 laws of power
note: one of these laws state "to not make your leader look bad".
Say you like your manager, and you like your job, making sure to not make them look bad contributes to a stable job- thus a stable income. Don't go dark mango psychology, normies pick up on that and you're going to get wrecked.
- The Encheiridion
- The Sun Tzu (Never see them as "Enemies" see them as Opponents)
- The Dao

LIFT & Get /fit/:
- Read the sticky

Touch grass, get a job, keep yourself and your environment tidy, make it as to your wishes.

Stop being a bitch.

The Jewish doctrine of Marxism rejects the aristocratic principle of Nature and replaces the eternal privilege of power and strength by the mass of numbers and their dead weight. Thus it denies the value of personality in man, contests the significance of nationality and race, and thereby withdraws from humanity the premise of its existence and its culture. As a foundation of the universe, this doctrine would bring about the end of any order intellectually conceivable to man. And as, in this greatest of all recognizable organisms, the result of an application of such a law could only be chaos, on earth it could only be destruction for the inhabitants of this planet.

Up to you. Doesn't have to be anything big for now.
The point of my life right now:
>help the old-timers in my family because I'm the only man nearby
>find some way to make enough money without constant normalfag harassment
>enjoy summer while it lasts
Depending on how things go, the point of my life will change. Maybe it'll suck ass, maybe I'll start doing cool shit. No point worrying about some great, lofty goal like talking to a real live female when I have 2 dollars in my checking account.
You can laugh or you can cry. I try to laugh because doing both at the same time makes people very uncomfortable.

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being

The seed cannot comprehend what the tree is. Our purpose on this planet is inexplainable, but in the afterlife you will blossom and it will all make sense.
Our human minds cannot fully comprehend it, but trust me, hope is out there.

Be kind to other people. Also watch out against injustice.
Sit back, and enjoy the ride even if itโ€™s uncomfortable at some points.

Trust me, life is amazing.

God, having made the cosmos and loving it's beautiful order and rhythm made a being like unto himself, in his image, and enclosed that being in an envelope of mortal flesh. This being, man, having both the nature of God within his immortal soul, and the nature of the cosmos bound within his physical body was placed within the cosmos to admire it. With philial love, God placed his partner in creation within the cosmos to both experience it's wonder, and to add to its beauty and order. Therefore it is the point of life to both wonder and be in awe at the majesty of the cosmos, while also adding to its beauty.

Man, as being co-equal with God, was therefore made that he may admire the great works of the eternal father, but also add to it. Thus was man made, and given the power of imagination. For man is both mortal and immortal. Always changing, and yet permanent and unchanged. Bound in physical mortal flesh, but within is an eternal radiance.

The point of love it to contemplate God, witness the beauty land order of the cosmos, and add it to it. God loves you so much he not only let's you "play the game" - he let's you help create it. That is why you are here anon, to add to the eternal tapestry woven in the stars. It can be as simple as planting some trees, helping someone in need, or gassing 6 million jews. But your role here is to add to the order and beauty of the cosmos.

Life is the recruitment process to fill the armies of good and evil and on judgement day you will pick a side.

there are only 3 options: religion, suicide, or acceptance (of the pointlessness)

the only logical choice is acceptance because the other two don't really deal with it effectively. once you accept that life is pointless, you can start creating meaning from it. this is not a new problem and humans have always wondered "what is the point?" so take comfort in the fact that many have gotten through it all, and you can too.

>1 matter (origin unknowable)

>3 why (contemplation)
You either continue contemplation or you don't. I'm kind of worried that you have no choice but to continue it. Though we perceive ourselves as individuals we stem from consciousness. Your "branch" will fall from the tree but the tree has infinite branches that continue to branch new branches. Maybe "judgement" is pruning the tree? You know, I can see why madness is a thing.
