Rant of the Day
—————–
I've talked to one of the organizers of a local activist group (I'd leave it at that).

I've asked him what is it that motivates him to spend money out of his pocket just to do what he does. Renting a venue and digging up information COSTS MONEY!!! He gave me a rant about moral responsibility to society, and how there's nobody else to do it.

I said that I share alot of his views… and I mentioned somewhere along the lines of spiritual fulfillment. Before I got into the spiritual stuff, I asked him first what his religion is.

He said he's an atheist and he said a few sentences about the importance of critical thinking and the scientific method. But he found himself agreeing with me on the spiritual fulfillment part except that he worded it as "it makes life more meaningful and worthwhile".

So what is it that he gains that is not in the form of material gain? What is the part of you that finds meaning in this life that is not about money or physical gratification?

I'd leave it at that.
