    what about mind body religions? or the mind body morality of Jesus? Non of these sages and yogis tried to explain away material reality they tried to subscribe ways of living and dieing to understanding a larger reality, one beyond your death. It does in fact exist because the world will go when you're dead, and you should live for that greater reality if only for the others who will be around then.

    Atheistic nihilists say the material universe is perfectly ordered and predictable AND totally meaningless. Its a dead end and inhuman philosophy. Not sure its close to any truth whatsoever and is most frequently used to make life useless and kill people. Where is the room for human reality?
