Title: Is The Death of Meaning Inevitable?

Bakker must have been bored one day last year because he joined Philosophy Forum (http://forums.philosophyforums.com/), on which I'm sure I have a dead account from years ago, and began a thread featuring a very abbreviated version of his ongoing pieces at TPB.

Must have been a slow day at the office, September 21 2015.

I rail against the injustice of this not being the forum of random participation.

there is some good stuff on that forum, a 35 page epic in which a man who ponders the truth of hardcore materialism asks for help because it's driving him to suicide and he's plied with unconvincing theological condescension. reminds me of every single time i've ever tried to have an honest discussion with anyone

Maybe not so eloquent or extreme, but something similar happened on this forum I think. Hopefully the results were better though.

Also good to see you around jamesA01, and that the Soylent hasn't killed.
