#7  Re #2,
despite the apparent absurdity or incomprehensibility of existence

Existence is a gift, and it is neither absurd nor incomprehensible, unless you consider the incomprehensible generosity of its giver. Where would you be without it?

#3  budget to be reduced from about $2.5B/yr to $2B/yr

#2  I don't think that word means what they think it means.

Existentialism is a family of philosophical views and inquiry that explore the human individual's struggle to lead an authentic life despite the apparent absurdity or incomprehensibility of existence.
