Discuss your thoughts of everything. Life, Love, Death... anything with deeper, chill-inducing meaning.
Here are mine...
First of all, I'm agnostic, so don't get your superman tights in a bunch if you read anything that offends you and your beliefs in anyway.

I'm wandering the many links of Wikipedia and I find myself scrolling through the scientific half of it.
I get to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_of_the_universe
I instinctively think to myself, "I'm incredibly lucky that I'll never have to encounter that." (Which I now realize is false, seeing as how matter is neither created nor destroyed, and me being matter will one day reach that fate).
I wander through the banks of my own mind and I find incredibly complicated thoughts of life and the meaning of existence, thinking about the beginning of time and it's inevitable end.
I then wonder the impossible:
"What if there were no existence?"
My mind figuratively imploded.
Completely baffled by my own innocence, I considered the many reasons for life and existence. Perhaps life is something that cannot exist without itself? (Cue implosion.)

When it comes to the topic of the creation of the universe, I don't believe in its existence being subject of a God.
I do however, believe in a higher spiritual power that connects us all on an incredibly large level of near-infinite magnitude.
That's not to say that a God isn't/Gods aren't a possibility, not at all. It just seems unlikely to me that an all knowing being (or beings) who "always was and always will be" exists.

So, what are your thoughts on things?
-
Isn't the whole board for discussing our "thoughts"?
-
Well, let me narrow it down a bit then. Relation between existence and higher intelligent powers. That work?
-
Well you said thoughts on "everything". That could mean anything. :P
