    The point of living is to put off death as long as possible.

    To the GoComics readers in the US: HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    Who would be a better person with whom to have this conversation? A priest, A rabbi, an imam, a lama, a guru… the list goes on.

    Calvin can be so philosophical yet so crazy and destructive

    The point of living involves girls, but at his age, that sounds like a bad thing.

    Seafood? I thought pizza was the point of living.

    So Calvin opens his mouth full of chewed turkey and stuffing at the Thanksgiving dinner table and says, “See? Food”. And a Very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to All!

    Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Load down and then join over-eaters anonymous. Personally, I’m not sure what’s so great about turkey. I’d prefer to grill brats on a summer evening.

    Game theory, Cavin.

    A closed ended game is mostly defined by rules, boundaries and time limits and you keep score. The objective is to run up the score and run out the clock. He who dies with the most toys wins (or goes to heaven).

    Life is an open ended game to be played for the sake of playing it and the objective is to keep playing it as long as you can. The only rule is not to hurt others and have fun.

    I will do as I did when I was a child. I will keep playing until the street lights come on and it’s time to go home.

    Happy Thanksgiving y’all.

    Hobbes seems well aligned with Thomas Hobbes here — Calvin however seems not to have yet settled on Calvinism.

    Happiness is the goal Calvin. Discovering happiness is the pursuit.

    Calvin has a really good point. The problem is assuming there has to be a reason. (I wonder why Anything exists at all — boggles my mind)

    every 6 year old has this thought, I remember I did. When you get to be my age you realize the temporariness of life is the thing that gives it so much value.

    Many lives have been wasted, misled and generally unlived looking for “the point”. Life is what you make it. Make it good.

    If God does not exist, then life has no ultimate meaning, value, or purpose.

    If God does exist, then it does.Jesus is whom he claimed to be.

    Read the last chapter of Twains’ “The Mysterious Stranger.” Ultimately, there is no point in life. Humans just want to believe that there IS a point, mainly because humans are so narcissistic.
