Here are the most common meanings people have for their own existance:
1. To have sex as much as possible, because they’re one dimensional.
2. To groan and whine about how pointless everything is and how there is no meaning (THEN WHAT’S THE FUCKING POINT OF COMPLAINING!!!?!?!)
3. To become rich and famous so they can be secure in their belief that they’re better than most people.
4. To be a sheep and follow everything their religion/marriage partner/society/government/favourite TV talk show host says because they’re too weak minded to think for themselves.
5. To waste their entire life wondering what the meaning of life is.
7. To sit at a computer 14 hours a day wasting your life away on the internet; most of the time spent masturbating to pornography and only getting off to eat, go to the toilet or sleep.

It is something many have wanted to know for a long time now. Many will say that god made the meaning of life, but is that really true? Now I’m not going to say there isn’t a god but I personally don’t believe in one.
But if there is no god giving us a perfect law why is it wrong to lie,kill,steal,rape,etc? Well simply put, it’s NOT wrong. It’s not. Let me explain, Human beings are apes. Apes are animals. These kinds of things probably happen in the animal kingdom all the time. They differance is we are evolved. Now, you still may ask, why do we think it is wrong? Well I’m not a psychologist but could it not be our minds justifying why we need others to survive? The truth is, we just survive off each other.
Now, as for the meaning of life, I think we create are own meaning. Wheather it be to worship a god, To worship no god, to be a murderer,etc. This is what I believe.
This is a flaw question, I could point at a mountain and ask you what is the meaning of that, or I could point at the stars and ask you the meaning of that, none can be answered.
I personally would just answer “There is no point. It is just there by chance.“
But thats not the meaning..
--- Theory does not mean an unsubstantiated guess or hunch, as it can in everyday speech. A theory is a logically self-consistent model or framework for describing the behavior of a related set of natural or social phenomena.
Simply put, my meaning of life is to live. Nothing more, nothing complicated, nothing trying to be philosophical. Life is about living it and everything involved in that process.

Doesnt matter what you believe, it doesnt change the facts.

I would say that the meaning to exist is the freedom to do at most you can with your life, good and bad is sometimes a point of view, and religion is one way to point it what they think is bad, but a satisfactory life is when yo do the things you enjoy, alone or with company.

Exactly. That was my whole point, that there is no meaning to life but what you make it.
Well then I agree.

me, me, me (waves little fingers in the air)....Ok, as i understand it, there are 2 sides to this answer..(Christian perspective)..On God side, God is invisible and dwells in unapproachable light. So he remains a mystery. At times he has communed with men from where he is but but it seems that He has always wanted to bring his creation to where he is to stop remaining a mystery....If you can keep your hat on, Glory is not a place but a person. Its not somewhere you go to, but its a state you become. When this man, (a few billion Christians from ancient time to now), is brought into this Glory/person, God is glorified in the universe, by all of creation. (that infers to other living things in the universe apart from man)...... On man’s side, when he becomes a christian, its like when a flower in a garden begins to grow. At first its just a little sprout. The more it grows, the more mature it becomes. Gradually buds begin to appear. Then it will continue to blossom...Eventually when there is full bloom, that is glorification. The glory of the flower, does not come from without but from within....yet this takes place within the divine Life..
