What is the meaning of life? What is our purpose? Why are we here? Is everything purely religion? Or was our existence just a massive chance and we should consider ourselves very lucky to be here? Discuss...

If you have an opinion please don't try and force/persuade it on someone.

There is no meaning to life. We weren't "put" here for a "reason" because if that is the case, who was it who "put" us here and what is their meaning to life?

It is an endless cycle thinking of it that way. There truly is no true meaning to life, it is simply we ended up here because of some fortunate events that lead to the sustainment of life. Although some could argue that the meaning to our life is to sustain our life, to keep moving forward and keep living.

And religion.. God/gods were created by us because all seemed lost at one point in time. These questions overwhelmed the people and they sought an answer, so they relied on something like God to turn to.

Basically God is a psychological being within our (Or those who haven't realized this) minds. He is just a simple go to for answers kind of thing.

For example, if you were given the power to start your own world, with nothing but blank space and no limitations... what would you create? There would be no one to help, no one to turn to for answers, just you. What would you do? Would you model your own world after this one? Or would you make something completely new? Or would you just be baffled at what you should do? Would it be hard?

So what if you had limitations? Maybe something like having Ground to walk on. Would that make it easier? Instead of making a whole world freely from scratch, you would now be heavily bound to the limitations set.

If I am right, then it should definitely be much easier to create within limitations, rather than have nothing and turn it into something without limitations freely without help.

Wow.. I drifted off <_< anyway, yes, so God is the one we made to turn to for help when we didn't know of what we were supposed to do. It is from this greedy creation that sprung forth different religions. Which today still plague the world and for ever threaten our "meaning" to live, to keep on living.

So my opinion is simply, if we had no religion, life would be better off, but yet people would be confused to what should be going on. It is a vicious cycle, but one that can hopefully be cleared up.
