Do we still believe in anything?

Through History, we have believed in different stuff. The Sun. The Rain. The market. We already overcame Nietzsche, Palahniuk and Fukuyama. Nowadays we CARE about stuff. We worship immediacy. And religion is still a big part of the human experience but beyond that, do we care about anything else outside the reach of our fingertips?

Most people don´t even take a glimpse at the bigger issues. What about the water and the Earth? Is family still such a strong value? We don´t believe in society or politics either. What´s the next monolith we will kneel before in the future? 

I've been asking the same question for this past few weeks.. everything in the world is just a 'concept' - 'mindset' - "copy of a copy of a copy of copy.." - everything is 'fiction' because i think there's only subjective truth, nothing is ever really objective as we all see differently even if we see it same. different eyes, different perspective, different interpretation..

I have not believed in anything for a long time. I'm just exploring myself. Plus, my intuition is well developed, so it helps me find the right path.

For me human race is a bunch of lazy smart individuals, they will believe anything they're priest or pastor tell them but if you say that the floor is wet they need to double check or verify if its really wet. In this modern era all we care is ourselves, nobody is civil anymore that's why the world is so cruel and slowly with our greed and being self serving all of the earth's precious animals, plants, trees will perish.

Well human beings naturally like to believe that they are a part of something greater and big. That life isn’t completely futile and its full of purposes. We mostly crave for explanation. Especially with the exposure to science and critical thinking, people might stop trusting their intuitions, religion or worst soon)

Absolutely agreeee

The trouble is, we believe everything.
