A Conversation for Existence is Useless (Work In Progress)
Morality, Responsibility, and Servanthood

Some points to ponder...
On Morality and Purpose...
If I don't serve a purpose, where do I get authentic morality, if not from some higher being? If I do serve a purpose, which higher being should my morality be based upon?
On Responsibility and Purpose...
If I choose an "immoral" base for my morality, is it fully right to be held responsible for my actions, when, from my perspective, my choices are completely "moral"? When it comes down to the nit-grit, does the government have any right to impose and enforce moral standards (i.e. laws)?
On Servanthood and Purpose...
If I have a purpose in life, why would I want to serve that purpose, if there was no incentive?(i.e. heaven, etc.) If I have no purpose, then why bother with anything? For Hope? For Love? For Science? Maybe theres a light at the end of the tunnel?
All questions for discussion and debate.
-Cheers
