I could never top this excellent answer that I received for a similar question (from YahooGuru4u), so I quote it here verbatim. Of course, I ruled out the answer "42."
"Darn you. You sucked me in with your question, then I get here and I see 42 is already taken. Now we really have to go on a trip and I'm without a towel. Well ok, let me see what I can come up with, shooting from the hip as it were.
My best guess is that the meaning of life, the universe and everything is "MORE". The quest for more seems to be at the center of all living creatures. All organizations be they organic or manmade seem to be trying to get "more". The universe itself is expanding, so I am told. As for "everything" anything that should happen to get created instantly becomes part of everything, so even everything seems to crave more. Yes I think I'll stick with the answer "MORE". What? Wait, just a minute, my wife is yelling something from the kitchen......
(long pause).....Hello I'm back again. My wife says the answer is "LESS" She says life is always moving toward death which by it's very nature is less life. The universe is made up of a limited quantity of everything and it is being used up also, so you have less now than in the past, and as for "everything" Well since everything gets used, you must have less of everything now than there was in the beginning.
So my wife and I will agree to disagree and say that the answer is: More or Less, or possibly More and Less. I guess that's pretty much the same as 42 because 4 is more and 2 is less. I'm getting a pain just behind my left eye from all of this thinking.
What!? Just a minute, my wife is yelling again!........ I'm back. She said I'd better get off this Yahoo Answers thing and come to the table if I want any dinner. I told her that I'll never have to come back to Yahoo Answers again because I just pretty much summed up life, the universe and everything. I'd better hurry if I want more to eat and less yelling. So long and thanks for all the fishes."
Happy Answering,

The fact that there is so-called intelligent life on this planet is a fluke. The only reason Humans developed a thinking brain is because we have an opposable thumb to do something with what we think up. The universe doesn't care what any of us does and anything we do will be forgotten when our sun goes Nova.
The only thing worthwhile doing is being kind to one another.
Sorry.

You are on earth to be a benefit to the human race. Realize this. The earth and all its glory are only here because you exist. Without you there would be none else in the universe! You matter, and as long as you make a difference in this life, you have fulfilled your purpose.

The REAL meaning of life is to serve and glorify the one and only living God. This is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; not "allah" or any other "god". This is the God who sent His only son, born of a virgin and without sin, Jesus, to cover our sins so that we can communicate with Him through prayer. That, my friend, if the meaning of life!

Nature put you here to breed. Everything else has been made up as we go along.
