Why does anything exist is a question that only leads to infinite regress.

"Things exist because they can " , is the best explanation I've ever heard to the first question

I actually like asking if it’s possible for “true nothingness” to exist. We seem to always jump to the conclusion that there was a point where there was nothing before there was something. It’s unintuitive to think of it this way but none of us actually know what true nothingness is really like, even the vacuum of space isn’t true nothingness as it has measurable properties. Fun to think about.

World is ducking weird if you think about it too much, world is just there and it just simply exist as simple as that if you don't think much about it

Sapolsky's arguments against free will are really, really strong.

Why anything exists is tough to answer, existence is the natural state of a physical universe. Like, if I were to imagine a new universe with all the little details, you could ask "why doesn't that exist?", and the answer is that it does or could. What I mean in that case is: people know of it, they understand it (to some degree). The only thing that it doesn't have is us, there now, to declare its' existence. It seems a flawed reasoning, to base somethings existence on being able to interact with it directly. But that is the only major difference between what we call "imagination and reality". And on the same topic, are the things we "imagine" not still based entirely in our "reality"? I think everything exists as a consequence of questioning, like asking "how did this all come to be?" could only really be shown, not answered. We don't have words meaningful (or meaningless) enough to portray the complexities of a universe and its' ends.

"What happens after death?" That question has already been answered... The burial

Why does anything exist or why does life exist is kind of a stupid question to me. Thinking of the universe like it just repeats or exists eternally in some way then I’d assume that eventually life or existence would be achieved and then once that happens obviously that life would contemplate its existence, while being completely unaware of the billions of cycles and states of nothingness or chaos preceding it.

I have actually delved into all these questions myself, each answer I find just makes it that much more intriguing. Bouts of psychological breakdowns may vary.

And not having a definitive answer for any of them makes them more interesting to explore.

I can scare myself by thinking for five minutes..imagine if nothing existed, never has, never will, not even a place for it to exist, just absolute nothing

The only one really worth exploring is the "free will" question because it can be answered with empirical scientific evidence. The others will only make you depressed, anxious, or left with the feeling that the world is out of your control.

A painting doesn’t just paint itself, nor does a building just build itself out of nothing. A painting needs a painter, a building needs a builder, creation a creator

I like the “universe needs something to see it for it to technically exist” theory. I’d rather ponder on life after death.

Only the first one is worth to explore. Do we have free will? No we have not. What makes life meaningful? There is no correct answer for this question, is subjective and depends by the person. What happens after death? Nothing because death doesn't exists, so there isn't a "after death", for death existing there should be someone to feel it, but there can't be someone to experience death, so it doesn't exists. But why does everything exists? This is so profound that you can stay the whole life contempling it and remaining always surprised by it.

If you can imagine that we are Consciousness experiencing the world through us and everything that exists, you have your answer to all those questions. 🙏

Death is what makes life meaningful. That and the fact that what happens in life cannot be undone or changed, but we're made to live with the choices we make.

My answer to why does anything exist is, because it can. Which makes sense in the context of quantum mechanics. Things exist and also not exist. As we are observers who exist, we observe existence and not non-existence.

I'll answer them for you : 1- everything exists to have fun, explore, transform, expand, experience, create, become, forget and remember yourself... 2- yes ( within what you chose before ) 3- you 4- more of yourself, another dream, greater you, a more congruent reality in terms of truth

These are the kinds of questions philosophers have wrestled with for thousands of years, but they’re also the ones many of us quietly wrestle with alone. If you had to pick just one to explore, which question would you choose? #Aperture
