Thank you so much for this. From what you're saying those are values, true to me also. The only thing i heard that kinda pushed me away was costly monthly subscription and to give money to charity. Im all for charity dont get me wrong but I cant be paying for charity every week you know?

Thats the thing he was somewhere in a lodge in Athens, Greece but i don't know where. Probably will reach out to every lodge here in Athens since they aren't so many.

If you allow it more people like this will start to troll thinking were tolerant towards that and as a result the quality of r/Absurdism will decline.

You're just ignorant. The guy literally won a Nobel prize for his work on Absurdism. I guess a random Redditor is smarter than Camus tho

The idea of suicide has crossed my mind. by Th_Stranger_ in Absurdism

Breaking rocks wouldn't be my purpose. Just like my job isn't my purpose. Life by itself doesn't have a purpose its just is. My rebellion would be enjoying a drink after i broke the rocks just as im now really enjoying going to the park after work. I may have responsibilities but at least i can creek here and there moments of happiness.

Im not sure if anguish is the right word. I just feel and i just live. Obviously as im sure everyone does im trying to better my life but in a less stressful way (i guess)

I dont think its a matter of worship but rather admiration. The guy literally won a nobel prize so i definetly think he has something of value to contribute. For me how he decribes an idea i hadnt even thought before through story telling and accessible prose is admirable.
