As A christian, to live a good and meaningful life. BULL!

I think the meaning of life is to help others. I really want to teach and maybe one of the kids I teach (If i do...) might grow up to cure cancer....


MAYBE!

Dunno, ya live, ya die.

It may be one big test. Also, what happens if there is no 'heaven' and you die. You can't just like 'die' and basically see 'black' for the rest of your time!? Golly Gosh, that would be boring! Anyone agree ;]

The meaning of life is the meaning of Karma. Do good things and good things happen to you, do bad things and they will come back to haunt you. :)

No, not really. And I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my own life.

So.. I'm a Karma non-believer, destiny non-believer

The meaning of life is to exist in this island of ignorance in the midsts of black seas of infinity. We have no meaning other than to comsume the resources the planet has to offer. :rolleyes:

I can tie my shoes too! ;D

I don't think there is a meaning of life, why would there be a meaning of life? We are in some ways still animals, animals don't have a meaning, they just eat, reproduce and die, so why would we have a meaning?
So I agree with Orange, the meaning of life is what you want it to be. If you think it's to help others, then help others, if you think it's to have fun, then have fun. :)

Close your eyes...tell me what colour you see?

1- When people die, you dont automatically close your eyes. Many dead people have their eyes open, dont be fooled by movies where they close their eyes before they die

2- Your brain is shut off. Shut off your brain, thats what you see when you are dead. Nothing, because you dont think, you dont take in any information, anything.

And it isnt happiness. Read 'Fahrenheit 451', and it explains why the meaning of life isnt happiness. Theres obviously more to the book, but thats one of the main things it shows.

I dont think there is a meaning, as someone said before, its whatever you want it to be.

The meaning of life must be death. You are born at a time and a place and you die at a time and a place, is what I think.

All dead people have their eyes open, this is because the eyes muscles relax when you die and other people put them close to make the dead person look like he/she is asleep and it makes it look less scary. :)

I don't know, but there's a lot of options out there to choose from ...

How about the Themelic - to gain a full and true understanding of one's true-self/true-will through mystico-magickal endeavour.

Or maybe the Buddhist/Hindu - to ultimately break free of samsara and gain freedom from the earth plane.

Or the hedonist - to seek and bestow pleasure; eradicate suffering.

Loads of answers, theories, points of view - none of them conclusive

True.

Some people spend their entire lives trying to find happiness but remain miserable because they never achieve it. Oh, the irony.
