What is our purpose on this planet, think about it. there is know goal to achieve when it is all over, u wouldn't be here without an intelligence. What the hell is this spirtual crap?!?! If u were to think about this like i did last night, u would relize there is absolutely no purpose to anything because in the end all of the solar system will implode from a gravitational inbalance. so tell me, what is our so called purpose? I know i am something different than man, i started to relize it when i was around 8, i woke up one morning and my vains were bulging out of my hands and they were red and blue. I started to figure out what it was and then i relized, am i the evolution of man? what the hell am I if i'm not?

The purpose of life is to be remembered. That way, once you die, you will live on forever due to your achievements. Mankind records everything nowadays, so even something small can get you a sentence in the history books.

Oh, and I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt you are an exception to mankind. You may have juvenal diabetes or something.

yes but that contridicts on science theories. because gravity is unstable and will eventually cause an implosion of EVERYTHING destroying all knon documentations and recreating the world. so are we suppose to repeat our lives?

That's not proven. In fact, there is a bit of evidence that the universe is spreading apart instead of coming back together.

i had an outburst like this once, and i am embarrased to this day that i did...anyways, on that bulging arteries and veins thing, if it looks serious, i suggest u see the doctor (something might be swollen)

all i can say is, since there is no meaning to life, just make one yourself

[center]Eat, sleep, reproduce.
There is no meaning to life, humans don't seem to get it. We try to add all these meanings to things, but the reality is: Life has no meaning. All you're here to do is eat, sleep and reproduce.
Animals don't ponder the meaning of life, why should we?

I guess it's because humans would like to think that they aren't meaningless, why'll animals don't have that kind of thought process, well I don't think they do anyway (can't prove it so I'm not gonna state it as a fact). Nuclearrabbit, that's exactly my description of our purpose, hell I wouldn't mind eating, sleeping, and most of all reproducing all day lol. Gah, I make my own purposes, I spread controversy, by claiming that I am infact God. Heehee. I also have a group of girls that are my "angels", rofl I love making life interesting.

Then Die.There'll be no difference if you live now, or a hundred years from now. If you're remembered, that's not YOUR purpose. That doesn't benefit YOU.

Your meaning in life is whatever you want it to be. You create your own meaning, or let someone else create one for you. What ever makes you sleep better at night.

My purpose is to laugh at what most people consider "wrong" to laugh at. And also to master the essential rock/metal instruments (guitar, bass, drums).

life has no meaning, as nuclear said, unless you give it meaning. Give yourself a farking purpose in life and stop whining about stuff. My goal is world domination. Keeps me occupied.

I realise life has no meaning, but I make sure I live for something. Always determined, always gritty, always tryin', always grinding it out.

I suppose you could say the outcome of all life is to change energy from a high potential to a lower one. Otherwise known as using energy. Energy going into our world averages out more useful than the energy released by it.

But enough of this depressing purpose, which seems like it could be related to being even worse than having no point at all. You could say life is pointless, but the real purpose of life is simply to exsist. It is the most basic instinct since the begining of life itself. Exsistance in itself is more complex than it seems. We would need resources to exsist, so our second main purpose in life is to find resources to exsist on. To accomplish this task we could either go explore for more resources, or take them from another organism who previously discovered them. Therefor the third and fourth purposes of life is to explore where we are and to compete with the other organisms that exsist. This can become even more complicated if you think about how some organisms work together to accomplish greater tasks, which can either strengthen on or the other of the third or fourth purposes.

Four main purposes of life.
1. Exsist
2. Find Resources
3. Explore
4. Compete

Lol, well you're just what the doctors and other kids would call "Special". And maybe it's not that you have uber electromagnetic powers that make the lights flicker.. but that your school has cheep power lines? Now when you start walking on water and begin to call yourself Jesus, remebmer to take the flotation devices off your feet. smile.gif

PS: Don't use your superhero psionic powers to kill me in my sleep tonight. I'd like to live for a few more years to fulfill my purpose of living for as long as i can.
