Forums - General - What is your view on the "Meaning of Existence"?

So if i am understanding the majority that posted on this thread, The real meaning of life is that it has no meaning at all. The majority says that we are here just to live and we all have our own meaning of life so there is no reason pondering it.

If this is the idea that you guys are trying to get across please comment on this so i fully understand. This is my understanding i just want to make sure this is what you ment, this goes for the majority whom posted and said basicall the above statement.

pretty much yep, unless you go into deeper philsophical stuff, in which case, things get very confusing!

Define meaning.

If you are asking me if I think there is some "greater purpose" for us to be here, the answer is no.

However, the reason all things are alive, is because each species has a genetic desire to survive. Not all living things did, but the ones that didn't aren't hear anymore ;)

So my genetic makeup drives me to do lots of things. I want to live life to the fullest, and do as much as I can before I die. Life has meaning because I give it meaning, I am driven to create meaning. What that meaning is, is different for each of us.
