The deep end

...share your thoughts on the following topic.

What is the meaning of life?

Should the discussion digress into more mundane topics, such as Infinity, Religion, Gravity, Timetravel, Immortaly, Death, Alternate Worlds, Teleportation, Love, Telepathy etc, I shall not object, although references to "42" will be frowned upon

The meaning of my life is to protect this very special girl.

The meaning of life in general is to procreate.

You live to expand your species.

God is done his job when regarding humans.

We're done our evolution, we're as good as we get.

We all have an equal chance of procreation, so all that's left is artificial insemination and complete war.

oh were we supposed to be serious?

well the meaning of life is to reproduce until we figure out what the meaning of life is.

Life is meaningless, in my opinion.

[Supah 0]

Maybe life is meaningless? Just a collection of mildly nice moments strung together by extremely awfull ones. Just try to do the best thing ...... too bad people are thankless. Fight the good fight is another one.

The concept of life is in itself hard to define.

living, on the other hand, I would define as "posessing life", and you might say the purpose of living is to procreate, but if that were true, wouldn't any creature logically perish once procreation had been ensured?

Perhaps we are closing in on a definition of life as we get better and better at creating living beings 'from scratch' so to speak. Also, the research into A.I. and practical realisations of same, will teach us more about life, or at least about our concept of life.

We're here so God can laugh his ass off when we as a species do some stupid mistake from tripping on ourselves to killing each other to full scale tactical nuclear warfare.

Females of all species usually die after giving birth.

Humans learned to prevent death while giving birth, but I think "God" expects our women to die, too.

Men simply kill eachother. I think God "programmed" us to be more violent.

here's what i think of life, from top of my head

a set of experiences that goes through an individual.

This is absolutely false.

IMHO I think creation was a mistake. Therefore bkus we werent meant to happen we can make what we want of our life. So, Life=whatever the hell we want it to be.

I didn't mean all species.

I was thinking of humans and salmon, though.

And a kind of walrus often dies after giving birth.

I'm sure that a lot of species tend to die after giving birth.

[FetishFool 0]

I think that all species used to die after giving birth at one time.

Right now, if a creature gave birth too many times, they'd eventually die because of it.

So that leads to the assumption that creatures used to be weaker at one stage of evolution. A time when it was a 100% chance that the female would die immediately.

Life is all about the gonads and the strife

Do you think the creation of man was a mistake?

That would be a long line of continuous mistakes then?

Or, if you believe the word of the Bible, God created all the plants and animals, but then by an extreme fluke happened to create man, instead, perhaps, of the nice dry martini he had be trying to make??

Or do you think the creation of life was a mistake?

I'd rather call it a coincidence. Mistake implies that there was a will behind the action, and that the will was attempting something else than what actually did happen.

You might say creation of life was a conincidence, but what would then be the meaning of a universe void of life? (assuming that can be considered an alternative...)
