JordanPark24 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I've been discussing with a number of my friends about the reason why we are here on earth, the end of the world, and what happens after death. What purpose do we serve here? Are we playthings for a higher power or do we simply just... be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 We exist because we are an intellectually-complex species that has evolved through millions of years of natural selection. Why do we exist? We exist for no other purpose except to die - any other opinion on the matter is arguable, but the one I proposed is not. However, it is my [i]personal opinion[/i] that dying is our only reason of existence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Unclean One: VK Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Why do we exist? To grow, consume, and then die. The more important question is: How can we can we make sure that our species continue to exist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Unclean One: VK Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Agreed Burnspy. Go enjoy life and don't be weighed down by idiotic limitations. Religion? f*** it if it's too hectic for you. Relationships? Throw them out the door if you don't get anything you like from it. Status in Society? I gave that up years ago and I'm now happy and content not being forced to be what someone else wants me to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacruel Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Well, people of different backgrounds and beliefs can't seem to agree on this one, so there's no definite answer, but the most widely accepted view is that we exist to continually reproduce and die...

Grunt Issun Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Simple? Riiiiiight, asking why we exist is a simple question. The point is, life isn't about knowing WHY we exist, you'll waste life wondering about it, so forget it, go do something that inriches your life! Even if that something is playing a video game, GO HAVE FUN GOD DAMNIT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raine Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 There is no reason. That's why your here, make it yourself! We have ways to achieve things and a set amount of time to do it. What you do and how you do it, is none of my concern. Whether you choose to raise a family, propel humanity forward, or cast it back into the Dark Ages. At this moment in time, it is not conventional power for us to extend reach past this planet simply due to the state of humans. This is our playground, you have no rules.
