There is NO meaning of life. \n\nThis is a tipycal 'human' question, with a religious, metaphysical or morale sign. \n\nlet's take, for example, the answers given until now: \n\n- "The meaning of life is to be able to say at the end that the world is better off for your having been part of it."\nHow do define "better"??? Do you think some presidents don't think they are doing all they can to make this world a better (safer) place? Even when these people are destroying the planet, they believe, based on their values, they are doing something good (well, it is definitely good for their vice-presidents, but that's another story). Also, who do you think you are to determine if the world is a better place just because you passed by it? Our lives (average 75 years) are less than a second if put into perspective with the Earth's age... we are less relevant than a mosquito (individually, because as a group, humans are going to destroy the planet, which is also irrelevant, because there's no 'superior' being that would care about humans disappearing --as nobody cared when the dodos (a bird) disappeared).\n\n- "Well with most species it is to live to reproduce and continue your species... But I don't think that's what God has in mind." \nOf course this answer is ironical (good) when mentioning god, but also establishes that the meaning of life is to reproduce... While you can find a lot of pleasure in the process, defining it as the "meaning" shows you have the intention of finding a "plan" or a "mission"... and I think this is a metaphysical approach. But I tend to find the fight for food and reproduction as the main motors of everything that is alive (not the meaning of life, though).\n\n- "in a religious way, to pray for God..."\nNo comments. Obviously a human/intellectual/metaphysical approach to the question. God is an intellectual invention of men. \n\nsince men are conscious animals, they have the magical thinking that there must be a reason to be here. There is no 'reason'. If you think there is one, you would be accepting that there is a 'meaning', and then you would be having a religious position.\n\n- best answer for me: 42. This was Monty Python, right? hillarious!\n\nwhat do I know?

The meaning of life. It seems to be such a broad and unanswerable subject. But it's as simple as one scripture in the Bible.\nThis is found Ecclesiastes 12:13.\nSolomon was wise and extremely wealthy. He had it all and did it all, and that scripture is his comment on what the meaning of his life had come to be.\n\nFear God. Obey God's commandments*\nThat is my reason for living...getting to know God and his commandments, developing a wholesome fear of him (fear of displeasing him).\n\n*not just the 10 Commandments...the best way for us to obey His commandments is to examine how Jesus led his life and do our best to immitate that, as well as follow his council.

To give life.\n\nThe Meaning of Life is the answer to this question:\n\nGod, what is Your purpose of Existence?\n\nFor God's purpose of Existence itself defines the purpose of all that exists.\n\nI asked God that question...\n\nGod answered, "My purpose of Existence is To give life. Since you are made in My image after My likeness, then YOUR purpose of existence is to give life."\n\nEverything that exists is an expression of God's thinking; thus, everything reflects God's thinking.\n\nGod gives life by His unique existence, and receives life when He gives life. All of existence gives life by its unique existence to that which receives life from its unique existence. This is Nature - the union of all living (eternal) things.\n\nYou are here to give life by your unique existence to that which receives life from your unique existence. So do what you love that nourishes those who love what you love.\n\nThis is your purpose.

its has nothing to do with science.\ni strongly believe that the meaning of life is to be happy and fing joy: to be born, to love your parents ,to learn as much as you can about all sorts of stuff, to marry and have children, cause you will never really feel complete happiness until you have a family of your own. and while you are living, do good to others so that your life has meaning. i believe thats what life is all about, cause i dont think its so that you can be miserable and dumb and walk the world with cares about what happens to the person next to you.

I don't believe that the meaning of life is love. Life is a  mission given to every human by the almighty which must be fulfilled by the humans.\n                        The meaning of life is not love.. But according to me the meaning of love is life.

The meaning of life is different for everyone.  You should know, however, that discovering a religion is not mandatory - nor is it the basis for searching for the meaning of life.  For some people it is finding peace, for others it is becoming the best they can be.  It varies so much because each person is so different.  This question often goes unanswered in life to those who passively seek a solution to it.\n\nI always thought that the meaning of life was to live it fully ... I am not religious, and am not looking for a religion, but I'm happy and I think that's what the meaning of life is for me.  Living each day to the fullest.\n\nIf I had to venture a guess for most of the world - I would say the meaning of life is to have loved, and been loved as much as humanly possible with no strings attached.  True love.  That's what we're here for.
