I'd really not want to go to the trouble of asking 7 billion people if I have any value. It would be apparent in the way I'm treated by the people I come into actual contact with every day.
This is another roundabout discussion wherein I'm not allowed to realize the way things actually are. I'm worthless. That's the way it is. Think of it this way--you wish to present counter-arguments, and yet, you don't know me. For all you know, I'm sitting in run down trailer completely surrounded with child porn and dead bodies. I'm an unknown quantity to you, right? No one in here can argue whether or not I have any value because no one in here knows me. So when someone tries to argue the point anyway, I logically question the motive. Is it so to foster an unfounded sense of personal worth in someone who knows better?
If I had worth, someone in my life would care about me. I just really can't fix that with a bumper sticker. I respect the attempt, but my worth was not in question. I already know that I have none. Was just looking for an answer to my original question. Thanx.
