There is no "meaning of life".  The concept of meaning is a language tool which has no given purpose.  However, knowing that words have meaning allows people to dream up meaning for themselves and pursue it as their own identity, and convince themselves through daily affirmations that the universe had given it to them.

The meaning of life, to me, is to find your purpose in life, fulfill that purpose, and make a positive difference in someone else's life.  Leaving this world better than what you entered into it is just AWESOME.  A relationship with Christ is the key to finding your purpose and fulfilling it.

I don't know about the meaning of life, but math certainly can be used to take abstract ideas in real life and put them into a simple format.  That is a form of philosophy.  Math is just a broad term for using symbols to represent real life things and their relation to each other.

i think the meaning of life is to find out about yourself and other people, and learn from your experiences to grow and mature as a human being.  it is why you wake up every day in the morning, instead of sleeping.  it is why you go to work, to make a difference in some one else's life....

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 is to live for God and do thing's for him. If your not living for God your living for the devil. You can't be on the fence between God and satan because the fencce belongs to satan and anyone there is easily tempted.
