Theres so many individuals and people groups who seem to think were better of dead. Or perhaps should just pack up our bags and leave for space, on the next space wind ship.

All things are but God expressing his vision of himself. "God dwells within you as you",you have unity with God in unconditional love within your heart. The essence of your being is unconditional Love. it is your purpose to awake to "That",it is your supreme duty to express "That".

I never wondered about the meaning of life. I always wondered what the purpose of life is.
As for human life ...If we are able to reason for a reason ... then why would that reason only be applicable on earth only? So not much point is running off to deep space really. There are humans that are good for this planet and others that would be better off on a sterile lump of rock like Mars or the moon.
Too many humans think they are above nature. I like to believe there was an entity with a consciousness once. It suffered so much internal struggles (bit like humans really) that it just exploded with a Big Bang. Life is a consequence of that consciousness. And humans are here to figure it all out. Sometimes i reckon when we do, it will change reality as we know it.

It's a very good question, I must admit! Are we here for a reason? And when we say 'here' Where is 'here'? Were we here before 'The big bang? Just how many 'big bangs' have we had over the trillions of years? Scientists say that there was nothing before the big bang, not even time! But all the matter that suddenly came into existence then, must have come from somewhere! Did it all fly back from an earlier 'big bang'? They, the scientists didn't mention that did they? If time is eternal, then we could have had trillions of 'big bangs' and in between 'bangs', we could have evolved time and time again! So have we always been here? who knows? And just how far are we, out in space, from our original big bang departure point!? And how long before we are all flying back there again? When the gravity runs out?

There is no grounds for believing human life is a good or bad thing. Compare it to fish life, or dog life. It is here, and we must make the best of it.
There are those who believe that great works of literature and music and art prove that Human Life is better than animal life, but then this theory can be disproved by asking whether animals wage war on each other, or just kill in order to eat, thus survive.
There is no point in deciding whether Human Life is good or bad: we are stuck with it, and must do our best to channel all the aggressive and negative tendencies into productive ones.....i.e. make love, not war.

its a good thing for humanity but the worst thing that has ever happened to the planet and most species of animal.
If animals do not have conciousness and a though process then it dosnt matter as they no different or can imagine no different.
It is just another example of humans over rating them selves on the importance of our exsitance. you would have to ask why are we here and look at the evidence of that which you will find is none therefore it wouldnt matter either way.

Anything that can be must be. Thus, man came to be. There is no good or bad to their existance. Man just is like the trees or stars. We have a right to be here. We bought that right with thousands upon thousands of lives and a million plus years of struggle to survive. The only reason for our existance is that we could.

I do believe that we are all on this earth for a reason and therefore no one is useless at all, rather that we are here to help each other attain our purpose. Our purpose on this planet or earth for that matter, is to make this world a better place to live in, for ourselves and for everyone else. I also think that another purpose of ours is to help one another be better individuals. So I see no reason, for man to leave this planet. =)

Life on earth is given by God.We had no choice.As regards life here is good or bad,it is you who make it good or bad.May be circumstances influence life.You have to overcome difficulties and make your life happy.If you can't be happy, at least you can be NOT UN HAPPY.Have a posititive attitude.Even the space is made good or bad by people.Going to space will not make any one happy or unhappy.

Neither good nor bad. Human existence simply is a fact. And you are right about the remorseless rise of Homo Sapiens haters. These people loathe themselves and in a classic case of Freudian transference load their feelings of self-disgust onto the rest of the human race.

Why has there always got to be a reason?
We just evolved, that's all.
We're here as a result of a certain set of circumstances that by chance had all the requirements for life.
And so it happened.......
