The meaning and purpose of life (threads merged)

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Get weened, learn to read, heavy pet, Rock Out, write out a resume, get a job, drink, produce, drink, screw, buy a dog, smile, age, cough, die, go to Hell

 

[raybia]

so...what is the meaning of life?t:

To live it productively so that you and others benefit from your good works.

 

[ComicChick]

the meaning of life is to define your own meaning for it

 

[heypapajinx]

the day that an M&M melts in your hand, not in your mouth.
you're able to "eat just one".
AND Jag doesn't sign his post, you will become enlightened to the meaning of life.

 

[Addendum]

To live it productively so that you and others benefit from your good works.

Once someone else's name appears on my paycheck from work, then I'll consider doing something to benefit others

 

[Fred_Fury]

just wondering.

 

[lazur]

To enjoy it while it lasts. But to do so without causing harm to others. Period.

 

[Superman79]

What's the purpose of life? You don't ask, that is the purpose.

I think its about the opportunity to reach our human potential and fulfill our destiny.

It doesn't have a purpose. But you can create one in your own life.

 

[Superman79]

To leave the world a better place than when you came into it.

 

[Kaboom]

we had a thread asking this exact same question two days ago!!!!


<~~rips hair out of head.

and the answer is 42...how many times must it be said!

 

[Fried Gold]

There is no purpose in life. The human race is basically a happy accident.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

I think its about the opportunity to reach our human potential and fulfill our destiny.

That's not an answer. It's like saying "The purpose of life is to fulfil the purpose of life."
It's like, "Define the word "tired"...":The state of being tired".

And if there is a purpose, some intelligence set the goal, but no one can agree on what "human potential" is.

and the answer is 42...how many times must it be said!

Until somebody realises that using an answer from a show around 30 years old is a little tired?

 

[Abaddon]

Ugh, you people. 42 is only the answer. The question was never determined.

 

[Kaboom]

Until somebody realises that using an answer from a show around 30 years old is a little tired?

or a series of books spaning decades, or a 2 year old movie...or.....go eat cake.

 

[Kaboom]

bump

 

[Fried Gold]

To leave the world a better place than when you came into it.

Hitler failed at life.

 

[Superman79]

Hitler failed at life.

yeah, pretty much

 

[Cinemaman]

To take the best of what you have.

 

[Fried Gold]

To take the best of what you have.

And do what with it?

 

[mightiest_mortal]

to procreate

(is Fred_fury related to Blind_fury ?)

 

[Cinemaman]

And do what with it?

Just enjoy it.

 

[Fried Gold]

Just enjoy it.

That's not really a purpose though. The purpose of Super Mario is to rescue Princess Daisy, and the enjoyment comes as a by-product of that.
