God

Flavour said:
nothing is important has another double meaning...

does that mean that no thing is important? i.e. the universe is pointless (kind of don't need a god then?) or that 'nothing' is important, like sartre was saying????

0 is blatantly important.


my head is twisting now..... i need to lie down
 
so 4 meanings in all...

no thing consists of matter (i.e. the universe don't exist)
'nothing' consists of matter (logical fallacy, surely?)
no thing is important (nihilism?)
'nothing' is important (like what sartre said?? or something to do with the invention of zero possibly. fuck knows. im having a lie down n all)

e2a: does this mean 0 is a bridge to antimatter??? :confused:

I've considered all these meanings and i agree with you the second one is implausible, and i'm very heavily inclined towards the third one. Often a critisism levelled against Buddhism is that it is nihilistic (particularly the madamkhya tradition - all things are empty and lack inherrent existence, including moral values) but OTOH buddhists tend to be a kind and friendly bunch
