I think I know the meaning of life. Why we are here, I have a pretty good answer for. The last question, why is there something instead of nothing, I have no answer whatsoever for and am working on. What do you think the answers to these questions are? And its not 42.

First off, I already said no numbers. Second, I know the answer to the first, almost have the answer to the second, but need the answer to the 3rd. Which may be an equation, but not a #.

Only 1, but a man will not likely pick the right one. Einstein came very close. Now, for #1, the meaning of life is evolution. Fulfill your emotions and prolong your survival unless your logic says otherwise. Do this using any means, and then once survival is ensured, play videogames for all eternity. Seek progress, to understand the universe and increase the complexity of your mathematical system. That is the meaning of life. Take that Jovians, you got beat by a 14 year old.

Because we percieve there to be something; take a man, blind him, deafen him and throw him into a vat of body-temperature viscous fluid. What is this mans reality?

Yes, but this man still exists. As the universe is just a computer which is just a giant mathematical equation, why is there an equation at all? There is no time just a static infinite spectrum of all possible mathematical equations, some infinite in length. Why does it all exist anyway? Why isn't there no universe, no equations, and no existance? My only theory is that there's a weird equation that divides infinity by zero(just an example) that is not only the source of consciousness, but also the source of reality. Anything else can only be derived by the world's most powerful computer, which I am not.

Nihilism is a philosophical position which argues that the world, especially past and current human existence, is without objective meaning, purpose, comprehensible truth, or essential value. Nihilists generally assert some or all of the following: there is no reasonable proof of the existence of a higher ruler or creator, a "true morality" is unknown, and secular ethics are impossible; therefore, life has no truth, and no action is known to be preferable to any other
...and you're wrong, the answer IS 42

Well if there was nothing you wouldn't be here to ask the question.

why are you here is a bigger question. And I do mean you, i can see a purpose to every other individual on this forum but why must you waste our time with this crap? It doesn't make you look intelligent, it makes you look like a pretentious****got. And before you start laying into my personal life, Iam a philosophy student and *still* think this thread is a waste of time.

1) To survive, prolong your species existence by any means possible, including evolution of course. We are "creatures", nothing more, don't forget that. All life is...
2) There is no answer to this one, that is not a valid question afaik... Many may answer this one, but their answer has no meaning whatsoever, because there IS something, that's what you need to concentrate on, where the something came from, not why it exists...

'Meaning' implys some design.
There is no meaning to life, it just is. The procreation of our species isn't our purpose, that's just a mechanism that has evolved through time.

But if you poked him he experienced it, which means he also exists from his point of view.

there is no meaning in life...
we have kids and then we die, they have to do something of the world, but they aint doing it...
humans are parasites on this planet, and someday the planet is gonna strike back for taking its resources to survive (like it has done, tsunamis, hurricanes ect ect)
and weŚre killing our selfs bit by bit...
every1 will die and it will start all over again, we will evolve, eve will be created, and then some punk is gonna come and write this same thing again 
scientists cant explain what happend the millisecond before big bang, so there has been no big bang, the earth has always been, and will for ever be (if it doesnt get destoryed by another planet or a big roid) and we as humans cant figure that out with our inferior minds...
**** will happend, and we cant do anything about it.
way of topic, but thats the way it is...
let the flames begin!
just my 2cents.,..

Believe it or not, but the meaning of life is spelled out explicitly in one bible scripture: Ecclesiastes Chapter 12, Verse 13.

For one, not every question has an answer. Secondly, why must there be a meaning to life? Just because you can question something does not mean that there is an anwser or that there must be meaning.

Well said. I really think Richard Dawkins should be on everyone's list of authors to read.
