Everything can be explained in life, except, Why am I me?
I have, like most of us, a solid explanation and reason of why things are. Some of us have religious explanations, and some have scientific explanations.
As an intelligent human being not encumbered by religion, I understand both sides, but one thing still remains.... Why am I here inside my body? I understand why all of you are here, but why am I here inside this body? Neither science nor religion can definitely explain that simple question. My only fear in life is not knowing the answer when I die. |

Irrational fear - first you may die suddenly, no time to contemplate anything, secondly if you do have the knowledge of your demise and time to contemplate it I really doubt you'll be asking 'Why am I here in this body?'.
I guess you're saying that you live with this fear and you hope by the time you die you have an answer for it. Um ... good luck with that. Solipsism may be for you - Solipsism is the philosophical idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist. Why are you you? No reason other than the genetic blueprint we each are born with, 'you' are your brain interacting with the world around you. Everything you believe yourself to be can change just with a physical change to parts of your brain such as a tumor or lesion. A high functioning brilliant person can wake up one day out of the blue and the world goes dark for them with clinical depression. They are no longer the same person, they don't laugh, they barely function. Same person but they are no longer the person they thought of themselves as.

You are you because your mother is a whore.
In fact.... I am me because my father was a huge freaking pervert. He was married, banging one chick, and was picking up my mother at the same time. My mother was, um, a bit younger when they first started dating. I think she was 16 and my father was 34. Otherwise, I don't think much about such questions. No sense asking questions you will never get the answers to.

Our experiences reprogram the dna over time. A perfect example is my Dad. We hardly know each other but years later we began to talk and see each other, we both learned we have the same jokes, same humor and same way of saying and doing things. Which should not be possible as I have only seen him 5 times in my life prior to that and grew up totally different. |

Why did I roll a 3 instead of a 6? I guess it would only be random if we are a bunch of souls waiting for bodies. Every possible outcome is available at the same time. Currently explained as parallel universe.
More likely it is passed on from direct ancestors. But then you can't trace it back to the source. What made the source organism(s) "themselves"? Currently explained as evolution. Everything you think you are is created in your brain. I don't think you could have the same consciousnesses inside of a different body. Am I trippin or is that clear enough? |

It does appear that the experiences and personalities of our ancestors can be passed on to future generations. There was a study done on rats, the study exposed the rats to a particular scent, every time they exposed the rats to the scent they punished the rats in some way, like Pavlov's dogs the rats became conditioned to the particular scent becoming nervous wrecks whenever they smelled the scent. They then took the offspring of these rats, children and grandchildren of the rats and exposed them to the same scent, a scent they had obviously never smelled before and what do you know - they freaked out the same way their ancestors did. So they now do think that it's possible that psychological trauma from your ancestors can be passed on to future generations. Freud would blame your mother and father but it just may be a great great grandparent's legacy passed on to you. If I remember correctly it's not the DNA, it's the RNA in cells, the RNA contains the instructions which tell the DNA what to do. It's opened up a whole new direction in research, scientists have long believed that lots of traits and illnesses have a strong genetic influence but didn't understand how.

To overcome the fear of not knowing why you are there, inside your body, when you die. You chose to live inside that body and experience the fear of not knowing why you chose that. You free yourself to other experiences when you accept your choice and make another choice not to need to know, but rather accept the gift of life you're choosing to experience inside that body. Best to face that fear now and have a joyful experience at death rather then a stressful one. . |

I don't know if you've been present at anybody's death but I've seen 3 die and there was no joy - perhaps you've watched too many tear jerker movies or read some new-agey bullshit about near death experiences.

Way too deep a question for a Friday. Monday is no good either. But TUESDAY... I might have some insight on a day like Tuesday. :D
I will say this though, that "simple question" as you call it isn't simple at all. (as is evident from all the amusing posts in here)

The purpose of life is to experience life, each of us is unique and will encounter different experiences everyday, these create interactions, and conflicts. And they are what shape up our societies. Every one of us is particle in all these complicated interactions, some of us create much more impacts and some of us create much less, but no matter what we do, someone would get affected and thats what shape a cycle of life. Life starts off like a piece of blank white paper, as time goes by, whatever land on it will leave a mark on it, and theres a life span of this piece of paper, some are thicker, some are thinner, some have bigger dimension, some are flat some are crumbles, wait till the paper is all filled up, the paper is flamed and turned into ash, Then u start a new piece of white paper again.

Yes many. At 18 I started working at a Sacramento nursing home while I went to school. I was there for about two years.

I've been in long term care facilities and there is no joy - shells of human beings, many crying to go home or to die while most have lost their minds and just exist. I'd put a needle in all of them if euthanasia was legal - and it will be one day. There is a huge generation of Baby Boomers advancing towards old age and I expect the debate over end of life choices to become very front and center. Birth is the beginning to a life - death as far as we know and likely will even know is the end, nothingness, oblivion.

You might try to think of your mind & body, your personality as of a game character with specific settings, skills and perks.
The question is, where and what is the player, can you feel connection with him(it)? If you could, then you probably wouldn't be that confused... |

Does your "soul" cease to exist after death? Surely, if we started with x amount of humans and now we have 7 billion humans we can't all be the same old recycled souls. Where are these new consciousnesses coming from to fill all the new bodies? Are they merely a product of environment and genetics? Does any other part of your body (besides your brain) have influence on your consciousness? Do other species think like humans? Why do humans need to know everything? What benefit is there to knowing these answers? All plants and animals eventually turn back into the organic material of which they were composed. Therefore, you could technically be born again as someone else. But would you have the same consciousness you had in your first life? |

Maybe you are the person your brain has created beliving its the best way for your body to exist?
The brain has been influenced geneticaly by chemicals and by things you have experienced? Or maybe god, allah or some other alien have created you as an experiment |

Well,
In case of your question, you should go to Statistics or the Theory of Probability. It is very improbable that you to be you.. but it is very probable that somebody is you ;) The same as in lottery. Very improbable that you will hit the jackpot two time in your life, but more probable that someone will ;)

You are an experiment by the Creator of the Universe. You are the only creature in the entire Universe who has free will. You are the only one who has to figure out what to do next – and why. Everybody else is a robot, a machine.
Some persons seem to like you, and others seem to hate you, and you must wonder why. They are simply liking machines and hating machines. You are pooped and demoralized… Why wouldn’t you be? Of course it is exhausting, having to reason all the time in a universe which wasn’t meant to be reasonable. …You are surrounded by loving machines, hating machines, greedy machines, unselfish machines, brave machines, cowardly machines, truthful machines, lying machines, funny machines, solemn machines… Their only purpose is to stir you up in every conceivable way, so the Creator of the Universe can watch your reactions. They can no more feel or reason than grandfather clocks. The Creator of the Universe would now like to apologize not only for the capricious, jostling companionship he provided during the test, but for the trashy, stinking condition of the planet itself. The Creator programmed robots to abuse it for millions of years, so it would be a poisonous, festering cheese when you got here. Also, he made sure it would be desperately crowded by programming robots, regardless of their living conditions, to crave sexual intercourse and adore infants more than almost anything. He also programmed robots to write books and magazines and newspapers for you, and television and radio shows, and stage shows, and films. They wrote songs for you. The Creator of the Universe had them invent hundreds of religions, so you would have plenty to choose among. He had them kill each other by the millions, for this purpose only: that you be amazed. They have committed every possible atrocity and every possible kindness unfeelingly, automatically, inevitably, to get a reaction from Y-O-U.”
