No meaning to life. You're here because your father inseminated your mother. Not because there was a plan or something.If that was the case,nobody would have been a loser.

That's one of the only questions that human beings can't answer. Because until you see God, no one will know the answer.

Man, some pessimistic people on this thread.


I'm not sure what the meaning of life is, but I think it has something to do with finding meaning in giving yourself.  For instance, if you give your brother a christmas present, you feel really good when he opens it, even though you could have bought yourself something with it.  Also, he doesn't really give you anything in return (well, another present I guess), and it doesn't help you in any way that he got the present, but you just like to see him have a present, that's what makes you happy.  That's one example.  The happiest I've ever been in my life is when I was making other people happy, it's an illogical enigma.  


Similarly with children.  I work for an arcade operator, and if I'm in a location and there's a kid there, I might give them a toy or something from the crane machine or whatever.  It always makes me feel good even though the kid just runs off never to be seen again.  

So I think the meaning of life is doing things for others.  Or maybe that's just the fun in life.  I've got a perfectly good religious explanation of the meaning of life, but none of yall would relate to it, or care about it, so I'll keep it to myself.  Basically it boils down though to God giving of himself to make us happy.  Exactly the same as how we find true joy in this life.

trauma made very good points. i think the meaning of life is to succeed in being happy. you dont have to succeed in life and make 200,000 dollars a year to be happy. as long as what you have makes you feel happiness then there is meaning to your life. which basically turns into the meaning of life is whatever you want it to be. we've all heard the saying "life is what you make it"...well its true and i think that is the meaning of life...making it yours.

People have no SELF Respect and little do they realize taht the search for it is a confession of it's absence..  

They're incapable of absolute altruism and thence seek refuge in pitying  and sympathising others...
And this wonderful opputunity is provided to the mass by the MEdia.. People feel infinitely better when they seee death and destruction and feel infinitely superior... they live a secondary existence and live and fed thru others.

Man, fuck you.  You make it your goal to go around and start arguments with others about their core beliefs.  You argue with me about what I feel, and you argue with a buddhist about what his faith believes.  You don't have the common sense to leave some shit alone.

by the way, that may be your opinion of the meaning of life, and to you it may be really clever, but it has nothing to do with me.  You may think you understand the human condition, but you don't understand a fucking thing as far as it pertains to me.

Sorry Trauma and others but being happy isn't a reason why we are here but something you should achieve,wich isn't the same. There isn't a meaning to life,only good ideas of what to spend your life on.

My mind hasn't quite grasped it yet, lol I'm afraid you're going to have to break it down for us.  So far, I've figured out

1. The thread has nothing to do with what the meaning of life is.

2. Overseer said that just because you don't post doesn't mean you have a better life than people that do.

3. He's saying something about Logic.


LOL

I just don't get how somebody can tell somebody else they're feelings are wrong, lol.  I mean, Luke has a different opinion of the meaning of life than I do.  That's what he feels though, something like that is what somebody LIVES for.  I'm not going to tell him it's wrong.  I don't even fucking know him, how could I know if that's wrong or right?  People that just criticise EVERYTHING about somebody are immature, and don't have the common sense to realize there's something outside their concept of life.

to shorten down what i was trying to say earlier...the meaning of life is to give your life meaning.
