Ten Questions for Humanity
Regarding Music Lyrics
Is there anything that hasn’t already been said? Any topic at all?
The Secrets of the Universe
If revealed to you, and if they challenged everything you thought you knew, could you discard all of your previous beliefs?
In the Struggle Between Happiness and Meaningfulness
Is it better to participate in the grand human social machine or seek contentment alone?
Immortality
If and when scientists perfect a method to extend life indefinitely, would you take the plunge?
In the Realm of Current Events
Beyond money, why do people choose to be Police Officers? Attorneys? Politicians?
That Thing Called Love
Purely bio-chemical? A genuine spiritual event? Or a survival mechanism to overcome the perils of being utterly alone?
All About That Bass
Do boys really want a little more booty to hold at night?
Where We’re Going, We Don’t Need Roads
If, long from now, the world is completely mechanized, thus eliminating the need for most people to work, what will we do with our lives?
Everyone Has One
Which one rules the roost: Opinions? Or facts?
Think Hard on This One
Does every single human life…have value?
