I got to pee.
And I won't stop until I confiscate all your drug paraphernalia
All you potheads out there stop smoking right now and give me all your pot. Enough is Enough.
conciousness is just a trick our brains play on us. we are simply a complex evolved organism that reacts to various stimuli and symbols. every behavior is geared toward survival and procreation. the simplest answer is that humans exist to replicate and follow the basic laws of physics. sentamentality is just a chemical swithboard mechanism to direct behavior toward self sustainment.
Ms_Knowitall, our purpose here on earth is to improve - not only to improve ourselves, but to leave the world a little better than it was before we got here.
CouchGnome: Brilliantly put.
If there is no set "purpose", then perhaps everyone has their own purpose, defined by their character and morality? Maybe we choose our purpose for living and don't know it? Our actions and the influence we have would be done in the likeness of our purpose, otherwise, if we are all here for a reason; some 'fate' that our lives will be directed by, then how can we have any free will? Can we avoid our purposes in life? Whatever. I say it's tits and ass, hockey and beer. That's all I need in life.
Were here to ensure the survival of aer race, the race of human, it's sad that we have basically brothers of the human rae killing off each other i don't know why were here but i know killing every body isn't why were here.
rock on, that was the best answer i've read on this site in a long time. you must be pretty deep. i would say it's to love and to work our asses off, since that's all anybody i know does, but that sounds so lame compared to ur above response. good answer, dude
There is so much unhappiness in people`s faces rich or poor,old or young.I most of the time think we are here to suffer and not get what we wish for.
It is as if a higher power gets a kick out of seeing us tortured and un satisfied
All of us are not brothers and sisters. Hey ass hole can't you smell the buring flesh from the bombs of the Muslim hate squads. NUkem them now why wait NUkem them now. Send a message that we are not going to play around any more.Hurt one more persom and we NUke you and Now. Gos help the stupid who think we are all brothers.
If our purpose in life is to make the world a better place for those we leave behind and to keep the human race alive we may as well all die now.
First of all we as humans are doing the earth damage just by living. Over-population of our species is the worst thing to ever have happened to our planet. You say we're here to make life better for those left behind when we die who in turn make life better for those left behind when they die, and they in turn make life better for those left behind when they die and keeps on going in a continuous circle forever. Eventually the sun will destroy our planet or a comet will collide into it or the universe will cave in on itself or all energy will be lost to outer space or something like that. And if none of these things happen because by that time the human race has achieved unbelievable scientific advancements and is able to stop its own destruction or because of some other reason, it will just continue for all enternity for absolutely no reason at all. What would be the point in keeping our species alive forever. And what would be the point of material or social success or achieving your goals. We wont care when we're dead!
As said in the greatest book ever written "everything is vanity and a striving after wind, and there is nothing of advantage under the sun."
Our purpose must be something else higher than we ourselves are.
Life is not worth 70 or 80 years or suffering and hardship just to end up dead.
I think we were put on this world to learn something. What it is exacly I dont know...
"we're here as a test. Are we for our creator, or are we against him?
If you created a sentient life would you feel more satisfied knowing the life you created, FREELY loves and admires you? or would you be more satisfied in having to beat and punish that life into submission for it to love you?

Very interesting thought.
I think if you can leave saying " Yeah it was worth it" then you have your meaning
I believe were all here to learn lifes lessions.
"purpose" is a human construct bourne out of the evolved psychological mechanism for self sustainment, there is no purpose but to be subject to the laws of physics.
My goal on this planet is to gain absolute financial independence.

Hi CouchGnome. If this is what you believe, why bother doing anything? What illusory "purpose" is achieved by your trying to convince people that their identity is a myth?
To grow and develop spiritually and win the battle against the evil in our own nature and help fight it in the world
We all came from Universal Oneness.
Life is a journey.
During the journey, we live, we love, we experience.
When we die, we bring our life experience with us and go back to join the Universal Oneness again.
To have the most Excellent Adventure, dudes and babes!
to torment and annoy the hell out of each other.
Add to my previous comment,
Since life is a journey, during this journey, we live, we love, we experience. The purpose of our lives during this journey, in my opinion, will be:
To contribute to the betterment of humanity.
To contribute to the betterment of universal goodness.
So that when we die, we will bring good karma to the universal oneness.
Remember, all mankind is connected.
i dont believe that there is no goal or reason, bt i beleive that there is no need to have a reason a or goal
We are here to learn, and after school, we'll take the express train back to the cosmos.
To make the world a better place? Haha. Hahaha. HAHAHAHA!! Get real people.
I dunno about you guys but I'm here to orgasm, eat good food, laugh, and not understand one damn thing until like 2 seconds before I die. At which time I'll be occupied with a beer and won't get to tell anyone. Then I will rot and feed plants which will feed cows which will feed my children. Now I gotta go choke down my grandpa with blue cheese dressing.
The life we are here to live is for growth in all aspects.All we are to be is better humans.
