Title: Nihilist looking for a place to chat
Post by: Cemetery on February 19, 2009, 03:07:44 AM
I have been a free-thinker/nihilist for the past 5 yrs, though I have not read a lot of atheist ideology.  However, I just ordered "The God Delusion" & I can't wait to devour it.  Anyway, I'm married, I'm a dog lover & I enjoy reading true crime.

Now let's chat!

Glad to have you here!

Now for a nihilist joke:
Why did the chicken cross the road?
There is no chicken and the road doesn't matter.  :cool:

The interesting thing is that dogs are inherently optimists. My beagle is always certain beyond a reasonable doubt that he's going to get scraps off my dinner table or when I'm snacking at my desk. I would think that would balance out quite well with a nihilistic master. You and your dog should start a sitcom.

Welcome. :) I've always found nihilism and cynicism to be worthwhile additions to the discussion of life, rather than things to be avoided. Good to have one here! Nihilist, that is, hah.

I just can't hear the word nihilist without thinking of The Big Lebowski.

He was one of the German nihilists. He's also in the Volkswagen commercials:
