Rep Power: 56 | | | The Meaning of Life This thread is dedicated for the discussion of those that wonder where we came from, why are we here, and what is the meaning of life?
Religion and science are two mutual factors that coincide with one another that influence the world. Religion has always persecuted science, for example Galileo when he stated that the sun is indeed the center of our galaxy.
I believe, however, that science reinforces religion and creates the foundation that validates the truths. God works in symmetry, and if anybody has read Angels and Demons, you will know what I am talking about.
Anyways, discuss what you think the meaning of life is in legitamate terms (as this is for serious debaters). Back up your arguement with facts from your religious/political/scientific beliefs. |

Rep Power: 50 | | | I have no idea what the meaning of life is. Just when I think I have everything figured out BAM it all changes.
I do feel, however, that everything happens for a reason. At least, I sure as hell hope so. It means that what has happened to me happened for a reason, it wasn't just random shit. I won't know those reasons, but there is a reason I had to go through it. |

Rep Power: 49 | | | Why are we here? What's life all about?
Is God really real, or is there some doubt?
Well, tonight, we're going to sort it all out,
For, tonight, it's 'The Meaning of Life'.
What's the point of all this hoax?
Is it the chicken and the egg time? Are we just yolks?
Or, perhaps, we're just one of God's little jokes.
Well, ça c'est 'The Meaning of Life'.
Is life just a game where we make up the rules
While we're searching for something to say,
Or are we just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DN-- nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay.
What is life? What is our fate?
Is there a Heaven and Hell? Do we reincarnate?
Is mankind evolving, or is it too late?
Well, tonight, here's 'The Meaning of Life'.
For millions, this 'life' is a sad vale of tears,
Sitting 'round with really nothing to say
While the scientists say we're just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DN-- nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay.
So, just why-- why are we here,
And just what-- what-- what-- what do we fear?
Well, ce soir, for a change, it will all be made clear,
For this is 'The Meaning of Life'. C'est le sens de la vie.
This is 'The Meaning of Life'. |

Rep Power: 48 | | | The reason I quit smoking pot was because I'd always figure out the meaning of life-then forget it when I got distracted.
I saw somewhere, probably someone's signature, "The meaning of your life could be nothing more than to serve as a warning to others".
