Re: The meaning of life... What is it?

There is no meaning to life, except to continue it. Animals live to give birth to more animals that will give birth and continue the cycle, while Plants continuously spread their seeds so more plants can grow up to spread their seeds.

Ergo, Life is pointless.

That was really depressing.  It feels like you are saying there is no happiness, no emotion, just continuing life ad infinitum.  Can't you think of something happier?

Re: The meaning of life... What is it?

gah my belief is scientifically there is no meaning of life, but if you don't perceive life based off of science then it is to live life to the fullest and enjoy it as much as you can

Re: The meaning of life... What is it?

Well, I think its time for another (Oh Come On, Not Again) An Excerpt from The Big Book of Life's Meanings written by Adrian Furrows

Today, we look at Meaning of Life #227:  The universe is an existential physical mirror of conscious thought.  Whatever conscious thought (basically, God)  thinks is reflected by it.  Throughout the universe there are focal points which bring forth much greater amounts of these thoughts.  Earth is one of these focal points and was made to physically personify thought.  So.... enjoy life, because there's no use being sad.

That was Meaning of Life #227, from The Big Book of Life's Meanings written by Adrian Furrows (who is me in disguise, so technically I am not Adrian Furrows)

For more meanings, buy my book, which is available nowhere at all.

That makes no sense.  hmm

I'm happy with the explanation that people aren't wearing enough hats.

And if not, I suppose that ice cream flavors are very limited.  sad

Exactly.  That is the answer to the Question.  Not the meaning of the Question (bacsically, why life?), which is what we want.

My point was that you said "the meaning of life was to be calculated by the Earth", which does not necessarily mean the Question of

"Life!" urged Ook. (I'm changing that name slightly because it looks too much like a bad word)

"The Universe!" said Lunkwill.

"Everything!" they said in chorus.

Although you have a point - it is unknown if the Question is about the meaning of life or something else.
