What is the purpose of our lives on earth?

[leahrachelle]

I'm interested to hear people's opinions on this.

 

[methylatedghosts]

To live the experience.

 

[Wandered Off]

You get to choose your own.

 

[sandandfoam]

Our purpose is what we decide it is. Purpose is a very human concept, it's meaning is what we make it.

 

[angellous_evangellous]

Marry a Greek man and make Greek babies.

It sure as heck ain't to die.

But how can one truly know life if one doesn't know death?

 

[angellous_evangellous]

But how can one truly know life if one doesn't know death?

By living.

 

[methylatedghosts]

By living.

What is up without down? What is hot without cold? What is good, without bad?

What is life, without death?

 

[angellous_evangellous]

What is life, without death?

Well, without death, life would be life.

How about this for a compromise (between you and AE)... The purpose of life is life, the purpose of death is death.

Only if I get the cake!

Allways choose life,even in death.

Once you can self realise the reason for your birth,you get an eternal idea that it has always been.Only by unification with the true self.

I have been born,lived & died many times already in this carnation.

Getting laid is a good reason too!

our fysiology indicates that our purpose is to reproduce,
but i hope thats not the only purpose in life since that would be boring

 

[methylatedghosts]

Well, without death, life would be life.

Life without the prospect of death would be much different than it is, I'm sure

I don't know what experience you've had with "reproducing", but I have alot of fun with it

[gnostic]

Eat...drink...sleep....

[Mjolnir]

Still trying to find that out.

to be part of the irrisistable force of nature that drives all living things to procreate and spread our genes, due to our intelligence some of us are fortunate enough to enjoy the experience.
