To live, die, evolve and procreate. Our species is just one of millions on this Earth and they all have the same purpose. If this was not the case mammals would not have evolved like us and there certainly wouldn't be any Primates.
The purpose of life is life itself.

There is no point to the human race,it is all a farce as the only finish line we ever cross is when we die, so don't take life too serious and just have as much fun as you can because tomorrow you may get run over by an eighteen wheeler or some crazy kid on a skateboard and die!

Good question. However, to answer briefly there is no point.
We are no different than the micro-organisms that have been on this planet for millions of years.
They can just divide and subdivide and continue to do so hence there survival.
We, on the other hand pro-create because we decide to do so.
Althought we are conditioned by our society and expected to carry on with such traditions.
The human race will destroy itself eventually, it's inevitable, that's if we are not wipped out by a virus, or destroyed by an asteroid colliding with earth, the same way dinosaurs became extinct.
So, there is no point, unless your religious, however, we will continue to pro-create until an event overtakes us and wipes us out.

Human beings are a product of an ongoing extremely complex (yet ultimately finite) chemical reaction, which we call nature. We are here because we can be.

The Bible says we were created to glorify God, for companionship with Christ. If you don't believe in God then I can see where it would be hard for you to find purpose or meaning in your life. Helping others is also a good way to give your life meaning and fulfillment. As the saying goes it is better to give than receive.

not sure. Is it really a race?
I think we should all go back to farming one day and chill out.

To have communion with God. We were lovingly created by a God who desires for us to be a part of His life, and for us to come to know who He is as well.
