Greetings, Ham,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mereological_Nihilism "Mereological nihilism (also called compositional nihilism, or what some philosophers just call nihilism) is the position that objects with proper parts do not exist (not only objects in space, but also objects existing in time do not have any temporal parts), and only basic building blocks without parts exist (e.g., electrons, quarks), and thus the world we see and experience full of objects with parts is a product of human misperception (if we could see clearly, we'd not see compositive objects)." What is your definition of nihilism? I'm rather tired of you using the word for its psychological and emotional effect. What is your definition of nihilism? It seems to me it represents the limitation of human knowledge. Why should that be considered so devastating?
