NIHILISM

A re-visitation of nihilism.  No one can tell me my opinion is wrong.  For me my opinions are truly my opinions. True.  If I truly believe that nothing exists, or that no meaning exists, if that's my opinion, no one can say that it is not my opinion.  (Actually I believe that EVERYTHING exists, relatively)  No one can prove to me that what I know to be true is not true.  These ideas made me wonder about the nature of reality.  I don't believe in God.  I wondered why some people are so sure that God exists.  I must give them the same benefit of the doubt that I give myself, so, I must assume that for them, God DOES exist. Reality must be explained in such a way that for them God does exist, while for me God does not exist.  Some might say it is just a mater of definitions, and definition does play a part, but only a part.  For us, sentient beings, mind is the controller of reality.  But that does not mean a universe without mind is not part of reality.  Cogito ergo sum.  I create myself.  I look at reality from every direction I can. Nihilism is cancellation.  Nihilism is lack of meaning.  But as I learned, my opinion is true relatively to me, as yours is to you.  I do though relish discussions that might change my mind.  In my reality everything is true relatively to something else.  The biggest fool there is, is the person who thinks ANYTHING is ABSOLUTELY true.  I think I'll make that my definition of narrow-mindedness!  Paradox Rules!!
