What would you suggest would be capable of "giving someone the meaning they need to find life worthwhile"? Orpheus 00:29, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Physical properties belong to an object whether or not anyone perceives it. A solution of chemicals is stable and balanced regardless of whether or not an observer finds them to be stable and balanced.
- Meaning and value on the other hand are totally different. A thing can only be "meaningful" if it is meaningful to "someone". The essential difference between a "someone" and "some object" is that a "someone" can choose.
- Psychiatric medications can be forced on a person against their will. On the other hand, no one finds meaning in life until they pursue a meaningful life. To answer your question directly, they must decide to find that meaning.
- "All who ask receive, all who seek find, and all who knock will have the door opened for them."--The burning bush 19:16, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
