What if we figure out what is the meaning of life?

What happens if we figure out what the universe is here for, why we are here, why we are alive. What the purpose of existence is.

What do you think will happen?

 

We already have done this.

And when we did, everything happened all over again from scratch.

 

What would happen would depend entirely upon what the "meaning" was. Of course this assumes that there is any meaning to it at all. Seems to me that the whole idea of there being a "meaning" to life the universe and everything is really rather silly.

Lets get things is perspective, if only briefly. Given the absolute vastness of time and space, and the absolute tinyness and insignificance of the human race and the planet earth in even our own solar system, much less the entire universe it seems to me to be a bit arrogant to presuppose a meaning to it all, much less one that involves us or is even comprehensible to human beings. Why should it be be necessary for there to be a greater "meaning" at all? Really, what would be the point of that? If you really want a meaning though I can give you the biologoical purpose for your being here in three words "reproduce and die".

Oh yes, and to the idea that we have already discoved the meaning and then everything started over I say bupkus. Not that the idea is itself erroneus as far I as can tell. But neither is there any reason at all to believe it. It seems to me to be a rather far reaching kind of statement, and should be backed up with some kind of evidence. Yet since no such evidence is even possible. . . .

 

If we do, then we die.



Big change, huh?

 

Nothing will happen, some people will believe, some people won't.

 

what she said

 

I reproduce...

 

I love that dancing girl crummy, can i borrow her?

((bonus points if you've seen buffy the movie))

 

That's my purpose, to make millions of little me's and have people praise me for getting knocked up over and over again. I'll be on every news station...

 

hmmmmm, have we met? I brush against a woman and.......

 

I think that the purpose is to question what the purpose is. In a sense, the answer to the question is the question and as long as we're here on earth we will always be striving without ever really getting there. Thats part of the beauty of it.

 

what if it isn't here for a reason at all, or need for one, but rather that what each of us experience is because of what all of us togather make of it?

that is what and how i'm seeing anyway.

don't worry, that will never happen. And if it does, it probably wouldn't matter anyways. Life goes on.
