Willravel took the words right out of my head.
for most everything else in life we go with
obvious proof....not wishful thinking that may be true...if what our senses tell us is actually not true....but I can understand going with this "purpose of life optimism", which is sort of what religious faith seems to be imo.
Believe me, there have been many times in my life where I really wished I could have
it (optimistic religious "faith")
but my brain just won't allow me to indulge in such foolishness!
still, the joke's on me.....
