If Reasoning is Why? & How?
Let yourself be Why and something
You care for be How
This is the Reason for Life

*something certainly includes anything, so, even anyone; something may certainly be someone

If you are not seeking God, are you not finding God;
If you are not seeking yourself, are you not finding yourself;

Piety is not restricted to religion nor is knowledge restricted to science____

Between each dueling thing is a center____

But philosophy begets both science & religion, as religion begets both science and philosophy,
just as science, too, begets faith & reasoning____

Do not pit yourself against yourself; do not pit yourself within yourself;
Do not pit yourself in one thing that you pit yourself against another____

Hold fast to nothing but hold hold fast to everything for everything establishes itself before you

The meaning of life is to better the world we live in, be it through reproduction (keep one's species alive)or helping other organisms to live. All living things can fit this description, except for humans in some cases. A cow betters the world by keeping its species alive, and continuing the carbon cycle. A pine tree betters the world by playing a role in oxygen production. An insect serves as food for other animals, while still managing to reproduce. Humans sometimes fit this description, but not always. Humans, when they respect others, other species, and the world, with morality and a good conscience (something humans have) then we are fulfilling the meaning of life. When a human does not use his or her gift of conscience and sense of morality, they are not bettering the world tobthe full extent we could. If this means donating to charity, or volunteering, or even treating all races and cultures with respect, you are fulfilling the meaning of life. This is not suggesting you start a charity, but rather that a sense of morality and a strong conscience, when maintained, lead to a good and happy life. Any thoughts?

After every line i will give an example so those struggling can understand my argument

What is the meaning of life?

1.Since the question does not focus directly on human life, then we can safety presume that whatever meaning life has, it can be expressed by every organism on the planet.
eg. The meaning of life has to be something that a dog or a sheep or a pine tree can fulfil just as easy as us. So since other species have no currency system, then "Getting rich" wouldn't be a possible meaning of life

2.As humans are the only species on earth that can follow religion or have a sense of morality, then we know that the purpose of life has nothing to do with god or moral forces.
Eg. A Cow or a lemur or a three toed sloth does not devote themselves to religion, they don't even know what it is. Neither do they have a sense of morality- they don't know the difference between Good and Bad, they only know what will and will not help them survive and reproduce. They live in a dumb existence.

4. Something does not have meaning unless it is constructed to have a meaning, and since life can evolve by itself without any intelligent intervention, then all signs point to the fact that life is meaningless.
Eg. The aftermath of an egg thrown at a wall does not have a meaning- it is just a result. A drill, specially constructed to drill holes, has a meaning- a purpose. Science has been proving for over a hundred years that there need not be any supernatural influence in the evolution of a species, that it just occurs unintelligently when one organism is born better suited to its environment than another. It doesn't have a meaning, it occurs like a maths equation- factors resulting in a product.


5.Life has no Divine purpose ( we have already shown logically that it can't- see number 2), but in order for it to exist, it must have a starting point and an end point.
Eg.Creation and Destruction. That is, Conception and death. Sex is the starting point, and death is the end point.

6.The process to which the starting point and the ending point are linked in a cycle is Evolution. Evolution is essentially a changing and adjusting cycle of sex and death, causing species to become greater at surviving. Evolution favours those with beneficial characteristics, but these characteristics are only beneficial if they give an organism an ability to reproduce faster than his rival, and an increased likelihood of him planting his seed before his inevitable death.


This is closest thing to a meaning that life has, because it is what dictates its existence.
So basically: Have a lot of children, make sure they survive to an age in which they can reproduce, and try to stave off the inevitability of death.

if your impatient then start at number 3

Since I am anonymous, I can't keep track of this thread. I am a god fearing man of wisdom, that is about to pass on. So, as my first and final question, who believes that god exists and why? May god have mercy on us when that time comes for him to take us away. Amen.

What is life? What is it all about? Why are we here in this world? What is the meaning of all these? These questions sometimes arise in our mind.
There have been a large number of theories to these questions from many different cultural and ideological backgrounds. The meaning of life is deeply mixed with the scientific, philosophical and religious conceptions made by people from all over the world.
Life doesn't mean just to eat,drink,enjoy and all that sort of stuff...but something is ahead from all that..its to remember 'GOD',because he has given all of us such a beautiful life. So we must never forget him in all our selfish addictions.
Look at the so-called enlightened monks. They do nothing other than worshiping god and doing good things. Now, this nothing can be understood as an inner evolution which has no effect on the outside world, but it's still something valuable.
Basically simplify your life, live your life, enjoy your life, don't hurt others and use your common sense. Life is being free and making it what you want it to be.
To find the ultimate gift...love of god.

The meaning of life is love. This sounds cliche as the dorky poem you wrote your girlfriend for valentines day but it still remains true. I have come to this conclusion after years of thought (which is a large portion of my life considering I'm only 18). I believe, and this is saying a lot for a man who uses the word with such caution, that God, if you will, created us because he wanted to have someone to give and receive love from. I have been able to come to this conclusion based on the scripture that states we are created in His image. Of course this can not mean a physical image because God is not bound by our physical realm. Instead, if one looks at his values- unchanging facts of what is good- then he is viewing the things that God reflected into us. Our flaws as humans destort these basic unchanging morals but nevertheless they remain true. Therefore if we feel the need to be needed, wanted, and loved, God must feel the same way. This makes Him sound selfish but are we not selfish beings? At any rate the first goal we have as humans is to love God. Religions disagree on how to do this. And our second goal is to love everyone around us. If we can show true love, then others will know a small taste of God's love and seek him and spread it. This is just a small portion of the simple topic of the meaning of life and love. Very easy topics to me. God, dimensions, and souls are a little more difficult. The concept of death eludes me but I have a general idea of what it is and isn't. Thank you for reading.
