What is the purpose of life?

may i suggest a book which changed my life completely and answers all these questions

Does life have any meaning? In general I think that everything is involution, degradation in the purest sense of the word! Human reason-does not record any progress. Lately, the fruits of reason have been destructive for both people and our environment. Life is a wonderful coincidence that the man knows how to cherish and that is why i see no meaning. It's like a gift card made ??of illiterate! Not knowing to read, will play with it until you break it. At each individual is free to choose to end their own lives as they wish.

I have often wandered the very same thing. I am not sure if any of us will ever know our purpose in life. I am not sure why we were not all created equal like it states either. I know some people do want good things but others seem to want the bad too.

Of course, everything comes with an istruction manual. If you have not read the Bible please do so. It answers all your questions. Hebrews 6:9-12 (New International Version) 9Even though we speak like this, dear friends, we are confident of better things in your case—things that accompany salvation. 10God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. 11We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. 12We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.

I used to be confused on this question. But things changed after I saw so many earthquake casaulties in my hometown---Sichuan, China. Life is the most important thing for everyone. Love your and others' life, and you will find the true meaning of it. There is no distinct purpose for some people, but they find life interesting because they respect it.

Everything has a purpose, we do something because it has a purpose. We were created for a purpose like example Adam and eve sent down to earth to make children to spread the population on earth that was one of the purpose. Hate and pride, envy will continue as long as satan continues to live. Also if you are not an atheists then we humans were also created to worship god to earn paradise.
