It seems like every day someone asks the same question about 'What Is The Meaning Of Life?'

If they would go back and read the answers to the hundred other same questions asked they would have thousands of replies to chose from.

How likely is it that one of us will come up with a reply that hasn't been already expressed?

So what is the underlying meaning behind so many people so often asking the same question? It's the same with many other topics. Like in the 'Painting' section of Yahoo Answers every other day someone will ask 'What's Your Favorite Color?'

So, why are the same questions asked so often?

(Take this question in jest, people! I'm just playing with words here.)

Many religions and philosophies speak to the act of forgiveness. Where do think you are? Do you forgive or Do you carry a grudge?

Can you share with me if the Law of Attraction has or hasn't worked for you? It seems like everytime I am thankful for something, that's when it goes all bad. How can I make it work better?

Interestingly there were no similar questions found on Yahoo answers.

Seriously, why do people want to fight all the time?

I mean when you have a thought you are already thinking but how did that thought come to be? where does the intention come from? It's kind of like the question, what was here first, the chicken or the egg?

I love God, but I don't like organised religion. I talk to God a lot and feel that I have a close bond with my creator. God to me is love and the reason I am here on earth. I went to a Christian school but I think organised religion can be dangerous. I don't feel the need to have a religion, just a God. Does anyone else agree, or if not, how can you convince me otherwise.

I say there is no god, as there is nothing even approachig conclusive evidence. Believers say there is a god, but utter glib claims of proof such as "how else could we be here" and "look at the complexity of a snowflake". Just interested in your thoughts.

Each culture has what could be considered social ideals that relate to peoples desires. What are the things that you lack desire for but your culture, religion or society state you should desire.
