Morality improves the quality of life. For example, living in an area filled with armed robbers would make one fearful and live a fear-filled life. Now imagine if there is less armed robberies, one can then enjoy life
Why do humans need to enjoy life? For what purpose?

What is the origin of self-preservation in humans?
Its what is ingrained in our consciousness. Lets say its a selfish streak all animals, including humans have. We love food, sex, money etc. So we try as much as possible to live to enjoy them

Why do our cells go through that circle?
It follows the order of 'Nothing existing forever'
Our cells live on limited resources. And we need to give back to the earth what we took from it, which is our body

Explain
You said people who don't want to live do not struggle to die.....meaning that death is normal and anyone who is tired of living can just go and jump over the third mainland bridge and die. So why should people Taking their lives actually be of concern to us?

So you don't enjoy sex, food etc? I don't understand your question
Seems as if you ask questions for the sake of it

It doesn't concern me, personally
But we live in a 'civil society' so such actions are abhorred

I never said I don't enjoy those things.....what is the purpose of enjoying them? Why should armed robbers not be allowed to do what is right in their eyes?

Excuse me! Why would you think such a thing unless you want to be selfish?

Apart from the fact their dead body will polute the communal water, the reason they jump off the bridge might be one that affects one too, or that one can unselfishly resolve for others if one can and wants to, and that's worth being concerned about, I'd think.

What is the purpose of enjoying food? What kind of question is this? angry
So you prefer robbers running all over you?

Consciousness is the ability to be self aware. You can lose consciousness when knocked out. It starts the moment we are conceived but we are not aware of it til about 3 yrs

The Bible is a book filled with contradictions and lies.
How do you still hold this book as perfect?

It's perfect because it is what the soul needs, which is the most needful thing of all

Are you aware there are other holy books which contain what the 'soul needs'?
Btw, how do you know the entity called soul exists
