I think the philosophy of the 21st century will have overpopulation as it's prime motivator. It won't be pretty IMO.

"I praise, I do not reproach, [nihilism's] arrival. I believe it is one of the greatest crises, a moment of the deepest self-reflection of humanity. Whether man recovers from it, whether he becomes master of this crisis, is a question of his strength."

Quote:
The religion (philosophy) of the future will be a cosmic religion (philosophy). It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious (philosophical) sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description .. If there is any religion (philosophy) that could cope with modern (and future) scientific needs it would be Buddhism. (Albert Einstein)

we comfortably house 30 billion middle-class eco-friendly people as the optimists believe.

Nice try. :lol: The problem will arise through your word "comfortably". It's not that we can't cage a lot more chickens, but we will have to cut their feathers, toes and beaks. This will create a philosophy.

I am not sure...


But I will say this, yes over population is probably the single most important issue that has been emerging. Humans need to be more responsible with their junk and think about what the fuck they are doing. At the very least I don't see why people have more than like 2 or 3 kids. But we can talk about this til we are blue in the face and its never going to change without force unfortunately.

Does it have to be religion that unifies science and spiritual aspects to life?


Ofcourse not but i put the 'philosophy' between brackets(?) to indicate the replacement of the word 'religion'. I couldn't change the quote as it is.

Maybe it's just me that sees this as completely evident. More people more problems, and any problem is compounded by the number of people causing it.

Why overpopulation above all the other impending dooms that are often pointed out?


Civil wars?

No you are correct they it not the essential problem. IMO human neurotic behavior is. Neurotic behavior that is tied directly to our inability to face our death anxieties.

I'm pretty predictable. I believe I have finally come to the core issue of life.

Yup. But usually it doesn't last long and it's usually something that pleases.

This just sticks and I don't prefer it. Good indications that I may be on to something.

Probably because its surely something that is actually happening and unless other impending dooms reverse this effect its just going to get worse IMO. I mean, it already has been happening... humanities cup hath overflown for some time now and hopefully by some miracle it slows down. But what do I know, maybe its for the greater "good" of the species to expand and expand... maybe I just wanna complain, this is probably the most worthless thing to complain about

How about corrupt govt. Or ignorant people. Or religious bigots. Or lack of drugs.
