However, as we have developed as humans, I believe we have human "purposes" to life whilst we are alive (I don't believe there is anything after death.) I'd say the main purpose/goal of humanity is to maximize happiness for every member of society. Meaning of life is therefore... enjoying yourself the best you can, without preventing others from doing the same.
Life will also naturally continue and progress (reproduce, create new life etc)... this is it's "meaning" in the sense of what inevitably happens... but there is probably no form of "meaning" or "intention" behind this which causes it to be so.

Good point... it's either that or Flash 6:)

Pissing off as many people as you can before you die by blowing yourself up in an old folks home.

To get all Nietzschean on you-

Will to Power.

We have an overflowing, which must manifest itself in some way, to leave our mark on the world. Our lives, and their meanings, and purposes, are constructs. Reality is also our construct.

Of course, this does entail some problems. However, I think Will to Power best describes it for me.

As for what my Will to Power might be, that's another matter.

water, food, shelter(either that or we need to start growing fur), and sex.

thats not meaning though. well, not a personal meaning anyway. i agree with everyone who said earlier 'you make your own meaning in life'... but i like to remind people that your own personal meaning doesn't HAVE to be get married, have a cubicle job, live in a ranch house, and have 2.6 kids... there are other ways to live life.

I got to page two before I realised how old this thread was, thanks.

The meaning of life is to die.

Don't waste your time searching for the meaning of life, live now, the present.

I really recommend you go rent/buy the movie "Peaceful Warrior". The name doesn't sound like much, but I can guarantee it will affect your life in some way. I saw the movie yesterday and it's simply inspiring. I don't care how you get the movie, just watch it broskies. The movie is incredible and I'm quite sure it'll help you find some answers.


Toast?
Nah.

Two answers:

1. On an episode of The Simpsons, God says to Homer 'The meaning of life is.' and then the credits roll. Therefore, the meaning of life is The Simpsons.

2. The answer to life, the universe and everything is 42, which is why it appears in my username.

To make the government money, and then once youre too old to be used for work, they kill you.
Orrr, to be as happy as you possibly can, and then die once you've had your amount of happiness.


Release your inner crazy.

That is meaningless. When you die that stuff has no value what-so-ever. :P

The Question of life is NOT 42. The Vorgons value blue armpit putty, you infidel!Odes to Blue Armpit putty is worthy of the greatest literary development in the Known Galaxy.... Vorgon poetry.
