What is the meaning of life?

[Zadeon]

For millennia, humanity has tried to answer this question... tried to ponder the meaning of life...
...so can you do it in one post? :P
Post what you think...do you think we are here for a higher purpose, or are we a cosmic accident? Or perhaps somewhere in between?

Maybe the meaning of life is just that - to ponder the meaning of life? To find out what the whole point is?

Me personally I think there is no meaning, we should just live life to the full and stop worrying about such things.

The meaning of life is trying to figure out the meaning of life.

many people will try to argue with me, but life is like it is, there's no way around it. No meaning. Its just life, it could be said in "Live until you die".

i doubt this will happen, but if the next few replies don't turn this into a symposium-worthy topic i'm locking this crap.

The meaning of life is debatable over the different species of life. There shouldn't be one fixed definition. In my opinion, I believe that humans serve to replicate over worlds in an effort to make the said worlds uninhabitable so that nature can redesign the said worlds to fit in to its' genetic destiny. So in effect, human beings are nothing more than highly developed, autonomous virus cells that belong to the mass intergalactic virus called le homo sapien.
Whereas, viruses that humans contract are really a planetary anti-virus, or anti-biotic.
But then again, the meaning of life could also be for life to spread throughout the cosmos in order to justify natural existence.
But then again, the meaning of life could be to die.
But then again, it could be that we don't actually exist, that we are apart of a collective conscience and serve as its' thought processes. Heat death could be simply explained as an idea being discarded, and big freeze could be an idea put on hold. The big bang could be the creation of the said idea, whereas the big crunch could be the closure of the said idea, and if this is true, than most likely the universe would go through a loop of big bang, then big crunch, then big bang, etc, meaning that one idea ending could be the birth of a new idea. The big rip could be a migraine. See what I'm getting at? Our existence could merely be an unconscious imagination of someone who actually exists. Therefore, the meaning of our existence would be to create solutions for the said host.
Savvy?

I believe the meaning of life is advancing society and the whole.  We exist to contribute to ourselves and the universe in an attempt to make it "perfect", although we'll never really reach that point.

"...that, while we have this life, to come into it; to live in our physical bodies, to be aware of the senses; to open, to see what they can teach us."

Seriously this topic has no point.  Way too general and vague.  Locked.  Next time please put together a more specific topic with a better focus.  And don't start it with a two sentence post.  ~The Great Terror
