• Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

Theories about our Existence

Nothing is perfect, even things that are designed by something. That's what evolution does, it irons out the wrinkles in biology. Also, those hummingbirds are fairly efficient in what they're meant to do, in what all life is meant to do, which is to make more of themselves. That's the meaning of life, reproduction.
True, but we humans feel the need to go a little deeper than that. Or else the Duggars would be the greatest human beings on the face of the planet. :funny:
 
There's nothing saying that you have to breed to have a meaningful life. I say that reproduction is the meaning of life because it's the one thing that all life has in common, and many simple lifeforms basically exist to reproduce. I'm talking large scale here, which isn't the same as someone asking themselves "What's the meaning of life?" when they really mean "What's the meaning of MY life?"
 
I think we hitched a ride to this planet on one of the meteors that wiped out the dinos. But that's just me.

I guess I dont understand the question. Are you asking for our thoughts on how life came about or the meaning of life?
 
Most people see those as being very closely linked. Personally, I feel existence itself is a fairly simple thing, and as such life has a very simple meaning.

If the purpose of life or meaning of life was to breed things would be different:

A) Rape would be legal or at the least, only shunned.

B) There would be a lot more people than the U.S.A.'s reported 300 million.

C) Survival, AFTER the spawning of said reproduction process, would not be as needy of so much if reproducing was the purpose. :whatever:

D) The false prophets who started this 'reproduction is the meaning of life' were likely a bunch of crusty old *****es who got their skinny, thief fingers on way more power than they should have. Their telling people of these things was a way of convincing them to give them more people to work for them. Basically - if someone is telling you to reproduce, the offspring kinda belongs to them. Unless, of course, someone like me comes along and enlightens them - not because I care, but because I HATE them crusty *****es and anyones else who embodies the misrepresentation of leadership.

E) Ignorance breeds. If it were the ultimate meaning of life, THAT would not be such a usual phrase to hear. I just told you in note D) how the 'reproduction is the meaning of life' came to be. It's not hard to see how or why the statement 'ignorance breeds' exists to the level it does.

So, although reproduction isn't the meaning or purpose to life, it's still probably a part to knowing the meaning or purpose of life. I'm just not interested in participating until it's my lead and well... any good lead is a lead that is punishable law - sooooo, guess I'll just bide my time until a hole opens or until my lead is stronger than these defilers of humanity.:cmad:

Now go breed, and give me four of your offspring for barter. They will have all the things the rest of breeders offspring has - food, shelter, clothing, education, we'll even give them a good surrogate family and make them feel proud and willing to serve and breed for us some more if need be. :dry:


intelligent or 'top of the food chain' species don't cannibalize or enslave themselves.

there are so many things wrong with this post, but those in bold made me go "wut?!"

You seem to only be applying SuperFerret's statement to human beings when it's really an all-encompassing statement.

In fact... for B. You've cut your sample down even less to only consider American human beings.

And A. demonstrates a rather sizeable lack in the understanding of the purpose of legislature.

C. Again shows an extremely narrow, viewpoint with your focus seemingly entirely on humans as a species.

E. is something which is far more prevalent in humanity than nature as a whole.

And D. was garbled and difficult to understand, particularly in relation to your other points, whilst also taking the narrow humancentric viewpoint.

Annnddd if reproduction were the purpose it wouldn't keep itself hidden and out of plain site. Who are you trying to fool? The aliens?:pal:
 
Out of plain sight..? I don't remember nature telling us to invent pants...

No - that was probably a product of castration and other such genital mutilating activities. In other words, someone decided it was a good idea to pick off these pants-less f***s one by one and make sure they learn how to wear pants, one way or another. AND NOW YOU CAN SEE why you are afraid to be alone. AND NOW YOU CAN SEE why you like being herded together like sheep with others who think like do.:doh:


Furthermore, nature hasn't really told us to do much of anything.

I'm pretty sure in the early days it gave us some pretty clear signals about eating the poisonous berries and not playing with the brightly coloured venomous animals...

I'd also think that pants were likely more of an invention based on necessity, protecting our most sensitive bits and pieces from the environment rather than castration and tradition-based ceremonies...

Oh really?:lmao: No one knew those things were deadly until someone died from them. CLEAR SIGNS MY ASS!!!

I thought about posting that but really, aside from FROSTBITE! there's no element that demands the wearing of pants or any other clothing.
 
Exactly my point... When interaction from certain aspects of nature (poisonous berries, venimous animals, etc) results in death... I view that as being a pretty clear sign.

Climbing over rocks, climbing up trees, debris from running on rough ground when others are running. All examples of the environment making things difficult for sensitive parts...

sure as s**t, they aren't warning signs.

Ummmm - animals do it every day. What the hell is wrong with our species? Oh yeah - WE AREN'T FROM HERE!:funny:
 
Animals have neither the brain function nor the dexterity to create clothing.

About the best example you could give would be the hermit crab, but that's not really the same thing.

Wow really? Yeppur, I guess we are sooooo much greater and higher than everything else on this planet. We're sooooooo much smarter and sooooooo much stronger. There is no way any other species could ever overtake us humans because we are on top of soooooo much because WE WERE TOLD THIS IS OUR HOME PLANET AND THAT WE ARE IN CHARGE OF THE WHOOOOOLE THING.

You really think that's the truth because that's basically what you're saying by not agreeing with me. Does your mommy dress you funny too?:lmao:

Beware the smoke and mirrors and the tricks of cliques.

I never said greater or higher.

We are smarter than any other known species though, we have more developed brains. We have greater capacity for reason and despite your evidence to the contrary we have greater grasp of logic.


Our strength as a species, amongst the known species out there, is our mental capacity and our dexterity.

As Blaise Pascal put it "Man is but a reed, the weakest thing in nature. But he is a thinking reed."
 
Zanham, you're out of your mind and completely missing my point. That's all I really have to say because I've made my point as simple as I could and you still don't get it.
 
My theory is that we were made out of certain things,and that we were only made because the higher power was bord out if it's/her/or his mind.

I believe everything from the Theoretical Higgs-Boson particles to something as complex as a Human being has purpose written in it. I think sentience has a purpose, and I think behind everything is a creator. Beyond that, who knows?
