What the purpose of life ???

I think what he's saying is that if you believe this being can create everything out of nothing, creating a son in the womb of a human female should be a simple task. Better yet, I have a better one. Can Allah create a rock so heavy he can't lift it?
it's okay. and now where is Jusus??he's died ??.

What is the goal and purpose of life ???
I would mean: the purpose of our existence . Why we are on Earth ??

In the most fundamental sense I would say we exist to learn...we exist to know the universe from our entirely subjective and thus completely unique position(s) within it.

Really I undertand nothing in your religion, so why you say that Jesus is the God of human? a God can he leave life? who command our World ?

No I am saying Jesus died because he was a human being. Now mind you I believe what was within Jesus was more then human, but Jesus died because he was human. By the way, you obviously think I'm a Christian.

See my religion up there? Kemetic, Buddhist, Gnostic. Gnostics have a radically different view of Jesus then Christians.

each and everyone would know what the purpose is for them selves...
the thing is once our purpose is to have a purpose then it gets sort of religious...

Ecclesiastes 12:13 The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the [true] God and keep his commandments. For this is the whole [obligation] of man.

As for our purpose on earth...it is a threefold purpose: to fill the earth offspring, to subdue the earth or tame it, and to care for the animal creation.

If life has anything which could be defined as a purpose or goal, it is to survive long enough to pass along its genes.

Sounds like a recipe for ecological disaster.

Our purpose in this life is to recognize The Creator, to be grateful to Him, to worship Him, to surrender ourselves to Him and to obey the laws that He has determined for us. It means worship is our purpose in life. Whatever we do in the course of that worship, [i.e., the eating, the sleeping, the dressing, the working, the enjoying,] between birth and death is consequential and subject to His orders. But the main reason for our creation is worship. I don't think anyone who is analytical or scientific will have much of an argument with that purpose. They may have some other reason with themselves-but that is something they have to deal with between themselves and Almighty God.
