Discussion How are people ok with not knowing where the hell we came from?

Well, we came from two bio men:
Janus and Cadox. Love the penises.
Explains the lack of navels.

The things is, everyone wonders where the fuck we came from and why we are here. Existential crises are common and religion mainly came about as a means of trying to explain why we exist and to help us cope with it.

A thing that has always boggled me about all this "spiritual awakening" and being "enlightened" kind of talk is that if the purpose for us humans is to become more spiritually "awake" and receive a higher state of mental clearance, then why do we decay (aging) and by then unavoidably end up becoming weaker both mentally and physically with time? We always hear about this "become better with time" and become "mentally stronger" with time etc. yet our brain is literally rotting away with time - causing it break down and give us horrible diseases such as Alzheimers, Parkinson etc. That really doesn't seem to correspond with all this "healing" stuff imo. Like, if we don't die by suicide, then our faith is most likely to end op with a broken down Alzheimers-brain in some nursing home while wearing diapers - how much "spiritual awakening" is there in an end like that? Doesn't make sense to me...

Due to the nature of this universe, nothing can escape the pattern of causality. Something cannot come into being from nothing. If they exist, the rules outside the universe must be very different.

Everything scientists tell us about universe is just theories.
We don't where we are and why we are here. It all might be some experiment sort of like the 'Truman show'
