Is any explanation in science,philosophy or religion able tosatisfy your desire to...

...understand human existence?
CV,why bother to A the Q you have no answer to when you can skip it ?
Conservation of energy(or matter as as a form of energy) is the 1st law of thermo but it is a conversion rule that explains nothing about how humans came to be or where we go after we die!
All I see in the A's so far is that it is hard to A the Q and satisfy the desire to know and understand human existence!
Pls note this Q was not limited to any one form of belief or method of inquiry!
I believe knowledge and learning begins when we can pose the Q's in the right way! If you believe that is a false premise, then please skip the Q&A!
Shawn obviously does not like an open-ended Q!
He should ask his own Q's rather than attack the one's who do ask Q's!
I have asked a philosophy Q and I do not consider koans or Sufi-like responses an answer. Neither can Reverse Q's be considered substantive Answers!

Wait and see. Until the end, if the string is too tight, it will break. If the string is too slack, it will not play. Seek the middle way.

No.

No answer satisfies the questioning mind.

When a mind is ready to let go of questioning, it will be satisfied, not through words and constructs designed to express the truth of experience, but through experience.

Yes, for me it is Science and all existence is explained by E=MC2. What this means is that the universe is comprised entirely of energy which forms itself into all matter including human beings. We are energy in human form. This is a proven FACT and when the atomic bomb exploded releasing huge amounts of energy, it was proof that this energy comprises all matter. There would have been no explosion if this equation wasn't true. The theory of relativity explains all human existence and it also explains where we will go after we "die" because we will simply return to energy form. Therefore, we do not really die, we just go from one form of energy to another.
