What is the meaning of life?

[Jimbooaa]

Why are we here?

[indiesinger]

42. Now try and find out the question.

[treaclefight]

we are here to ask questions :-)

THE NEXT LIFE???? Sorry to disappoint Einstein but this ain't a rehearsal mate.....get on and enjoy the life your living now because there is bugg3r all proof of any life after death......There is no meaning as to why we are here, we are only carbon based life forms decended from apes (and only slightly more intelligent)...as why we are here....Homo Sapiens seems to have made his mission to destroy as many of the other species who co-habit this planet...oh, and knacker the planet itself as well....but other than that no big schemes no grand plan....just get out and enjoy what you have while you can, it might be gone tomorrow.

we are all here for different reasons.

[jenstar]

I assume you're here to ask that question, and the rest of us are here to answer it.

[Jimbooaa]

You assume correctly. But now my purpose in life has completed.....what next?

[darth vader]

aaah but it hasn't cos you posted another question. Sorry but i don't know the answer to what next - have you tried snorkelling? climbing everest? saving the life of someone in africa? skinny dipping? growing vegetables? handgliding? backpacking across the USA, safari in Kenya (the list continues to grow.......) once you've said yes to all these your life is complete

space walking?

Have you tried watching the monty python film of the same name... they had a few *interesting* ideas...

Perhaps this will make you think. Death is the ticket to another life in which we learn things that we failed to learn in that lifetime. Re-incarnation is my thing. Afterall most people seem to think one life is not enough, and indeed it is not. I think we all have many, many lives to live before we have 'cracked it' (to some this is called enlightenment) and pass on to the next stage of conscienceness. Just a thought.
