The meaning of life

Since the dawn of time, the ultimate question has been asked in a number of ways. Why do we exist? What is the meaning of life? Does God exist? What is the origin of the universe? How does the world exist, and what is its origin or source of creation? Why is there something rather than nothing?

This site offers you the possibility to discuss this fundamental metaphysical question with others. It also allows you to share your opinion and react to other people's points of view. What do you believe in? What do you think is the meaning of life?

Whether you are a believer, an atheist, an agnostic, or a clever mix of all three, you are welcome! Your point of view can be serious, absurd, even bordering on completely nuts. However, the following two things are essential to this dialogue: respect and an open mind.

Respect: you may defend your opinion and try to prove the falsity of another, but it is forbidden to attack its author directly. Fascism and generalisations are strictly verboten!

An open mind: if you can't handle having your convictions being put into question, this might not be the place for you. For this same reason, a sense of humour is highly recommended! If your beliefs forbid their being made fun of, you might not want to participate in this dialogue.

I believe I was once absolutely nothing, in that nothingness I slowly started to mysteriously and miracoulously come alive into existence, and now I am a witness to existence and I can basically say I have practically seen everything, and now I'm sure that this journey is just going to take me back to nothingness with a peace of mind knowing that I'm not really missing out on anything because after a while everything gets boring, annoying, tiring, and I hate all the pain and suffering. So I'd rather go back to being nothing.

I am struggling a lot too, but I'm convinced that life does have a meaning, and that meaning in is the Bible. We are all very confused but we have to just hold on and not give up.
