Hedonism in the past and future

Post by cronus » Sun Dec 20, 2015 6:56 am

Religion doesn't like hedonism. What is really wrong with indulging in pleasures though? Other than having a hangover and a shorter life? Given the final years are hardly gonna be a fun-ride anyway isn't it better to spend your luck at being alive in the best years? and have a party?
What will the world be like after its ruler is removed?
