Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What? | Einzelgänger

Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What? Philosophers have been dealing with the problem of meaninglessness for centuries. Their ideas about life (or how to live well in a meaningless universe) could be valuable to those struggling with a lack of meaning in their lives. Can we live well as humans when life has no inherent purpose? According to several philosophers: yes, we can. And, according to some, we should. After all, if life loses meaning, there’s still life.Video: Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What?Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?
