The universe itself would want you dead, want to destroy you as you would represent anti-matter to it and lets face it you are a dependent being by the fact you are a mere human being made of the very essence of the material in the universe in a very limited fashion, meant to come and go, serve and meet your end but you do not understand this so you feel you can be your all independent of the world around you and in fact you are against your very essence.
