      Yeah, but it also means that all optimism is ultimately a delusion.

      The redemption comes from the fact that delusions are often good fun.

      I disagree. Why is necessarily a delusion?

      Optimism is based on assumption that things will work out. Ultimately, things won't work out.

      Of course, it's possible to be optimistic about things in the short term. Which is why I said 'ultimately'

      We distract ourselves from death by being optimistic about the short term

      Again, I disagree. My 'optimism' is simply a position on the inevitable (given the right epistemic _culture_) growth of knowledge.

      Interesting. However, you are a rarity. Majority of people care most about themselves and their children, all of which will die out.

      I accept that I am. Not too long ago, I was squarely in the majority. But David Deutsch's 'The Beginning of Infinity' changed my mind.

      It's a wonderful book: some of the best philosophy I have read in a long time, and all in service of a decidedly _optimistic_ worldview. :)

      I love David Deutsch, subscribe to his & Everett's multiverse theory. I've read the Fabric of Reality but not any others. Will check it out.

          Can't recommend it enough. It's heavily influenced my thinking across the board, and will most likely form the basis of my undergrad thesis.
