you got a sad story, ruth,' mimba said. 'but not sad-sad. you here with me and cato and all us together now. you have a happy-sad story. best you can get in this life is happy-sad. but you always gotta remember your own mama that birthed you. even though you only got a crumb of her story, you still got to say her name out loud. you always honor your dead, else you get trouble from them, sure.

One salutary development in recent ethical theorizing is the widespread recognition that no short argument will serve to eliminate any of the major metaethical positions. Such theories have to weave together views in semantics, epistemology, moral psychology and metaphysics. The comprehensive, holistic character of much recent theorizing suggests the futility of fastening on just a single sort of argument to refute a developed version of realism or antirealism. No one any longer thinks that ethical naturalism can be undermined in a single stroke by the open question argument, or that appeal to the descriptive semantics of moral discourse is sufficient to refute noncognitivism.

It is the very signature of modern man to deny reality to any conception of good that imposes limits on human freedom. To modern political theory, man's essence is his freedom. Nothing must stand in the way of our absolute freedom to create the world as we want it.

A so called "ultimate reality" that we are looking for, is simply impossible to exist within a PURELY physical universe or a multiverse or beyond, because everything that exists physically has to exist within something.

It cannot physically exist within "nothing.", because a “nothing” that can hold something, itself has to physically exist within something, again leading to an infinite regress.

This ladies’ and Gentlemen, is the “Infinite Containment Paradox”

And this paradox of Infinite Containment leaves us with two possibilities

Your whole “life” has been a complete illusion and no one you have ever known has ever TRULY existed.

OR

We all technically “exist.” But in a manner that is COMPLETELY different from what we believe to be “real life.
