If this is your belief, what is the purpose? Does there have to be a purpose?

For the millionth time...

Natural selection is the opposite of "random chaos."

Once you have educated yourself on the subject of evolution (and that education does NOT come from your preacher or Answers in Genesis), the question is not whether you "believe" in it, but whether you accept it.

The purpose of life is to live it. Any purpose beyond that you decide on your own. Me personally, I would like to leave the world better than I found it.

PS... I suppose by "Abba" you mean "father" and not the groovy (but slightly cheesy) Swedish band from the 70s?

Joy is the purpose, along with all the sadness that goes with it

Life is a miracle ... billions of galaxies ... and only a few thousand have sentient life, wow!

There is a Creator and he's inside of you. Even if He chose to create us through random chaos ... He has all the time in the universe to do it. So why not?

Life will have much more meaning for you when you start taking care of others ... Love is what we all need to learn!

And, Joy is what you'll feel!

With Love;
Jonnie

I ask you this: If this universe really is just random chaos that we happen to find ourselves in, does that somehow make your life less meaningful? Does that make it harder for you to enjoy things you love to do? Does it make it times with your friends or family or partner any less meaningful?

Life isn't just about pleasing some "creator" and making sure you follow all the rules in the Bible down to the very last letter. It's about exploration, discovery, learning new things. It's about making friends. It's about enjoying art, music, sports, entertainment, books, computers, nature, science, anything. It's not JUST about God. And there's an infinite number of purposes you can create for yourself with or without him.

And if you broke a law in our world, had to face the judge, and said "Life isn't about being in jail, life isn't about paying fines...It's about looking at woman, lying, and stealing things"

What do you think the judge would say?

Just because you don't agree with the law doesn't mean you can avoid or ignore it.

Living life to the fullest seems like a good reason but, hey if you're going to be lost without a creator invent one saying he created this so call random chaos. If you need the mental crutch that bad just lie to your self.

there is no higher purpose... but to pass down genes and give birth to another life.
