Ha, it makes me thinking, have you guys read the Ecclesiastes in the Bible?
It's some kind of philosophical lesson to teach us how to despise material things.
That's what they call "renoncement" here, which is very disturbing, I'll admit.
It is a pain to me as to anybody.

In a nutshell, the Ecclesiaste says - WTF is that for? I don't need it. I don't care.
If I remember well, it even despises women and sex, which is kind of wrong, though. Lol.
People need sex to be satisfied anyway.

But in the end, I think if we were more inspired by this kind of mindset, it would solve a whole lot of our issues.
Possibly even that of so called "climate change".

Just a note of mine on here. I didn't care much about philosophy when I was younger. I was just a spoiled child, not really intelligent... That's not my fault.
Now, as a grown-up, I find it interesting. It actually carries out some solutions, that's awesome.
