Seriously meant or gallows humor?
It's a serious option if you try to look at the cosmos as a mechanism and try to extricate our natural inclination to place humans at the center.
(IFF) "this" "started" with a "bang" (AND) will "end" with equilibrium (heat-death) (THEN) "everything" serves this ultimate goal

I have the impression that man hates himself. This is a real problem and need not be. Psychological depths are opening up. It would be really heartwarming if we didn't take ourselves too less and not too seriously.

Thank you for that documentary. I watched it in total. Touched me.
It seems crazy to me that we can find meaningful solutions like VIPASSANA and almost nobody even knows about it.

Thank you for this movie. It's a piece of art.
This story is so poetic.
