The world is a mess

The world is a mess? The task of finding a place to accommodate the mess is the self appointed task of the playwright and the actor. All existentialists share the same false belief that we, as a species, are imperfect. This comes about after they lost faith in science and technology, after they saw that we could make our last choice suicide, after they saw that we could literally wipe ourselves, or just one nation off the face of the earth. A global holocaust was possible. With reference to, the conclusion of the Second World War. They were no longer able to sit back and watch it they needed to get out and express themselves and give themselves a purpose for being here.

Simply put, Jerry planed for Peter to kill him, which in an odd turn of events is counted as suicide, at least to an existentialist.
