What is the point of life

[The Parkus Empire]

IT IS THE POINT TO DIE

Then what is the point of death?

[Bottle]

The point of my life is to make bigots unhappy.

Fortunately, this takes very little time and effort on my part, since all I seem to need to do is exist as a feminist, atheist, queer individual who is happy and healthy and in a loving relationship. So most of the time I just have sex and play videogames.

[Unilisia]

Growing strong, finding an able bodied mate, reproducing, caring for the expectant mother and child, then moving on. For a male of course. A female is around to incubate the embryo, give birth, care for the child, then die.

Short, sweet and to the point.

It's so easy to answer these questions, than everyone spins out of proportion *throws her arms in the air frustrated*

Oh, Uni, how I adore that statement.
No, really!

What was said for Nort Eurasia goes for you.

And what is with the hugs ?

[Ifreann]

Life doesn't really have a point. Which is cool, because that means we can make up our own 'point'.

[Luxemex Intex Zeonex]

Simple question but the most complicated problem we face in our entire lifes. Some of you may have simple answers but i urge you to please look farther then the surface, What will this accomplish, and is this really the way you want to spend your one single life on earth, i mean after life ends the after life goes on forever, however in the after life there is nothing.

For those of you that dont know i am a avid atheist so dont go saying stuff about heaven or god here pelase because i will just laugh!

Make the world a better place, or die trying

[CTALNH]

There is no point in life you are born and make a point for yourself to follow until you die

[Embrihated Koalas]

To fuck bitches and drink boos.

Congratulations you win the internet

[Terbizond]

I think the reason of life is to live.

[Meridiani Planum]

"When one experiences the kind of pure happiness that is an end in itself—the kind that makes one think: 'This is worth living for'—what one is greeting and affirming in emotional terms is the metaphysical fact that life is an end in itself."

[Volnotova]

Nothing? Instead it is just a sandbox where you have 1 live and you decide what you want to do.

[New Lusitaniagrad]

Have fun, but respect Gods's laws. Other than that it is really up to you.

That's unpossible! Everyone knows that it's an objective fact that girls don't, and can't, play video games.

I think the reason of life is to live.

These exact words was actually said by a 5-year-old girl in a Danish documentary about children who are neglected by parents too busy persuing successfull lives.
It somehow concludes this discussion

[Ayreonia]

There's no point. Life is just here. But since it's here, I might as well enjoy it.

Think of it like this... what's the point of getting the flu? There is no point. But, since you've got it, you might as well enjoy the day off work

So life is a disease? What a horrid example...

Life is an incurable STD that ends inevitably in death.

[Salandriagado]

a rock doesn't have a point.

I dunno, I've seen some fairly pointy rocks.



In general, there isn't one, beyond what you choose to give it.

To serve me!

[Vetalia]

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

[Risottia]

The point of life is that little dot over the "i".

[Occupied Deutschland]

The point of life is to try to find out the point to your own life.

You blaspheme with such talks of "girls". Even a person, who deals with the magic of math and physics, should know better that "girls" do not exist.

[Imsogone]

Why does there need to be a point to life? Just enjoy it the best you can, help others where possible and try to not to screw yourself or anyone else up too badly.

This is not a rational question, since there can be no real answer to it, especially since you've limited the answers possible by excluding the possibility of deity(ies). Non-questions will get non-answers.

Life has no meaning or purpose...Nietzsche said

And Nietzche is dead. I bet he died knowing he did nothing, except inspire Hitler's ideology, which means his life had a purpose...for someone else.

I feel bad for him, considering that his philosophy never would have encouraged Hitler's ideology, had it not been twisted by his Nazi sister.

For one thing, the concept of the Ubermensch had nothing to do with race, nor was it really possible for the Ubermensch to be a collective group like the Aryan race.

...Your ignorance of Nietzsche is so astoundingly repugnant as to be laughable if it weren't so depressing.

I dunno who said it earlier, but the whole "objective in a necessarily subjective" someone said was dead fucking on. There's no purpose in the sense that some being is giving you purpose/meaning. To say that the meaning of life is "to die" fails to appreciate the meaning of "meaning," although it's a nice bullshit line to feed to yourself and friends in a Starbucks or an internet forum to make yourself sound smart.

Nuh uh! My wife plays WoW with me (for example) - and she even plays a tank!
