This is a thread dedicated to people trying to find their reason's for being. Their reason's for living. What makes one person get up everyday and fight for another day while another person caves in and gives up? You decide what that is for yourself.

No way. It's a great line, and totally within Book's character, in my opinion. It speaks from the soul of a man who believed strongly in whatever it was he once believed, and then suddenly was set adrift, lost and listless, until he found something new to believe in.
What he knows is that there is something desolate about having nothing to live for but survival itself. He knows the compulsion to live won't overcome the mounting sickness that is either apathy or despair.
Where one finds that meaning is not a matter for him to be judgemental about..."judge not lest ye be judged," after all, and Book is not a preaching Christian, but a practicing one, and therein lies the difference.

Don't get me started on what I think regarding Christians. If you were a true believer of Christ you wouldn’t have even said that. For some people a belief is a concept that is difficult to grasp. Sometimes life comes down to finding something to believe in; sometimes a belief in anything, a car, a boat, the stars, or the earth is a beginning, a start to a much bigger belief and faith of a power greater than ones self.
A lot of Christians I have encountered in this day and age are so self-righteous, and full of themselves in a way that makes God look bad, and chases away the people who were sincerely seeking God’s love, protection and help. Most Christians I’ve encountered are really doing the work of evil, yet they don’t see that….they think that they are bringing the light of God to someone. Self-righteous bastards! Put them up against the wall I say!
