If one starts from the premis of evolution - and I know there are lots of creationists out there - one questions the purpose of life.
If all there is is the survival of the fittest - in other words, those with the best 'fit' for survival - this is transmitted through DNA to the next generation, and so on.
But all this has achieved is to enable the easier transmission of a genetic success through generations.
So, are we just a vessel for our DNA? Is life really as empty as that?
This perspective tends to make me belive that life is just a method of preserving DNA
