Lots of people are aware that we are living a lie. Reality bites, eh..? I guess all one can do is try to live as logically & happily as possible.

Make your ‘little corner of the world’ as comfortable & serene & happy as possible. It is pointless to attempt to ‘change the world’ – and not worth the frustration ; – )

Relax, eat, drink & be merry – we are only visitors here. And for so very brief a time.

Dexter, I missed your tv show, which I am glad the new season just started. I never knew you also wrote questions, long rambling stream-of-conscious questions, In YA. Go kill someone, I am sure everything will be fine then.

It is easy to see, or believe that all life is like that . . . it isn’t.
Life is good, or, if it wasn’t at least good in proportion to bad it wouldn’t exist because ours is the only species capable of making itself extinct. So far someone says “no” when we get to that point.

is it ignorance to think like this?

Would you save a baby who is about to fall into a well, or, at least, be afraid for it? All humans, instinctively, feel this way (even the ones who, after thinking about it would laugh).
If they tell you life is Hell they are doing it for a reason . . . stop listening and start looking around yourself, not through the glass window of the television, or the written word, or the gossip and the real ignorance of isolation, but through your own experience, your sight, and your own heart. If you are one of the people in your scenario, break the chain.

u seem disturbed a bit but i dont think life is a “lie” this is how we do things on the western side of the world. If you choose to live differently then thats your choice only close minded people will shun you . But the family is an institution we need it in society the whole american dream its what you do ith your family that counts what you gave us was a scenario. i understand your case but your argument is very loose

stunning, ain’t it?…. but, honey, that’s life…..terrible cliche’, but the only truth that can follow what you just said….

a lie?…. no…. just another one of the fairy tales told to us to give us hope…. we must have hope… without it, we stop striving… without something to strive for, we stagnate….. at that point, we might as well all be on Xanax… not a very interesting life there, eh?…..

try to not take such a bleak view of our world, friend… with all it’s zits, it’s still the only one we got………..

Well! is all I can say, I believe most of this I knew, but the Bomb is another thing. I think that most people accept this however they don’t allow it override their minds and continue with their daily lives, but how can we be saved from this is the question? Since the beginning of time of Adam and Eve there has been a thing called denial of God and his rules, and since that time there has been death, pain, and suffering. As a person I would want to think that at some point mankind would all get together especially the leaders of the world, and call out Merciful Father in Heaven help us, but I doubt it. First we have this issue with Jesus being the son and if he really existed, then there is people who worship Buddha, then there are the Islamics who pray to the temple in the east to Mohammad. Then theres this religion Called Yoruba with many Gods. then the Indiana’s The Catholics etc….. Therefore there can not be any peace. Therefore Jesus is coming back to separate the Goats from the sheep. Until that time comes there is going to be that confusion you wrote about, yet humorous Then you wonder why the lie. By the way I like how you wrote that consider writing a book.

Most intersting question ive read, why do we live a lie???because we seem to know no better, or the ones who do know are killed by the ones who do not.this may sound funny, but the cause of the big lie is:Pier pressure….let me explain
Jenny was pressured into sex, and Jim was pressured to have sex with Jenny, Jims friends were pressured to do it, so they pressured Jimmy and the girls they had sex with, then Jennys parents pressured her to get a abortion, Jennys Aunt or whoever thinks Jennys a slut,so no one likes Jenny, and the people who do like her are pressured not to like her, then they all tell her shes terrible and dont even talk to her, so Jenny got pressured into suicide….
Lets not forget Jimmy!Jimmy finds out, and every one thinks its Jimmy’s fault so Jimmy has no where to go in his eyes, so Jimmy runs away and ends up getting into an accident,etc.
and doesnt this remind you about how the snake pressured eve/adam to eat the forbiden fruit??
Pier pressure= Human weaknes…=human mistakes.=life

do you see from my point of view now?I really like your point of view, very logical, or down to earth….
but as one lady said above me, we cant ontroll we can only improve the next generation infact….just live your life make mistakes and learn=]

Whos not open and accepting of it? The politicians? They aren’t because they r in it for the money, same with dr.’s etc…..they r the people that know the truth the absolute most and they definitely dont want the poor to know how hard they work to keep them down.

Well I didn’t really read all of it but pretty much of it.
We are living because (since I’m religious) God created us to serve him and then when we all die we will go to Heaven or Hell
Heaven is our reward for being good and stuff
but Hell is for people who really don’t care about their life and want to do whatever they want to do.
I’m guessing life is like a test to see if we’re worthy enough to be in that eternal life of happiness and joy, but we’re not worthy enough but God loves us enough and is forgiving of all of our sins, but some people just don’t care they do whatever they want and God sees that they don’t care about life so if you don’t care about life then why should you have an eternal life?
but if you’re aethiest then go see another answer hehehe -.-’
