It's not an obligation if it's something you fulfill without any action on your part.

The only real obligation stemming from natural mortality is to overcome nature and become immortal. Literally everyone in history has failed to fulfill their one and only obligation, and it's likely that everyone will continue to fail for at least the next few generations.

Copy what?

We're under no obligation to die - life is not being dead; life and death are inherent enemies, for lack of a better term
Life obligates you to live; to live is to experience; to experience is to have a bias

you don´t believe any single line of that.

you end up settling a little and ridiculous niche of power, that will be your house and the money you can gain with your own exploitation.
you low your own desire because you can´t have all the pleasure your mind can imagine and conclude that pleasure isn´t everything.
your will it´s just a scrap for all this world, and you end up conforming your will to the parts of the world you can manipulate.

>> No.6725200

'Our' meaning... what exactly? Your obligation? Human obligation? The obligation of all living things? Do you mean in general, as in "obligation of homo sapiens" or in particular, as in "what is my obligation"? By enclosing this "obligation" under 'life' are you expressing your epistemic curiosity as to what your metaphysical obligation might be in the eyes of God? Or the obligation of our species? Or, again, of all life? Is this obligation a metaphysical obligation in the sense that it has been given to us, individually or collectively as species, by God? Or do you assume the negation of this and are merely *looking for* an obligation--in the sense of a commodity (for whatever reasons)--in a seemingly meaningless world?

Asking seemingly innocent questions can have equivocal consequences as you can see for yourself.

Okay, so you are coming forth as a naive and inexperienced language observer and as you have showed, user, too.

You'd think that in

(1) John carries his bat with him all the time.

'bat' refers to a baseball bat, but in actuality it could mean the mammal, bat; or something entirely else. Hence, (1) is ambiguous and open for more than one interpretation. Same goes for your question in OP.
