I can't take the answer that there is no meaning to life.
If there is none then why do we live at all.

I agree with your final sentence. But surely there must be a lesson to be learned from living. Surely there must be a reason why you are who you are, why you happened to be alive today and not a hundred years forwards or backwards. I believe in a sort of preparedness we acquire on earth--a preparedness not driven by fate but by our own free decisions--so that, someday, after we die, we can realize (in what I believe will be the presence of God) some sort of grand truth about what it means to be a creation born out of pure love. Something that made your life on earth, no matter how short or debilitated, absolutely necessary.

- I don't think there's a meaning. We exist to fill in the time gap we have from when we are born until we die. The things we do in between is up to us.
- be dru's hero.:
- I think we're here to inspire and be inspired, to help people when we can, to love and be loved (not necessarily romantically). I think we're here to enjoy what we can, to learn what we can.
Because life somehow formed and we're part of it? I don't see what's so difficult to comprehend about the idea of living with no meaning of life.

Oh wait, oh wait! Oooh, I'm so sorry. I forgot that in order to join a discussion thread, one has to explain themselves and not rely on others to have common sense.
Dear wonderful people of Mibba, I believe that Social Darwinism is the answer to the meaning of life if you're wondering. This all dated back to your 9th grade biology class when you learn that a person is only put onto earth to breed and create better offspring that would be:
Sexier or ... at least more attractive than you
Healthier or... at least live longer than you
So they can repeat the cycle and create...
SUPER HUMANS OF THE YEAR 3000
... It's just like now except they live under the water.
Came to say something similar (and I was gonna make a hitchhikers joke x.x). Give this man a medal and a scotch, people!

I don't think life in general has any inherent meaning that goes for the whole of humanity, whatsoever. But hey, I kind of like it here. I like food, I like drink, I like family, friends, sociability, music (studying, listening, playing), arts, books, films, relationships, sex, nights out, etc.
Me enjoying life is a good enough reason for me to carry on living; it doesn't matter why we're here, or what the meaning of life is.
