Here are my conclusions. Understand, I lay claim to this theory and it's just my personal opinion based on observation:
You have 2 different types of people:
Type 1: Believes that the purpose of life is to procreate and make more, subsonsciously to ensure their survival indefinitely, and consciously to fulfil their desires to have someone take care of them in old age and satisfy their ego (the "mini-me" complex). Religion is usually very central in these types. Ask no questions, just believe and pass the apple pie.
Type 2: May procreate, but sees their children as seperate individuals. This type usually seeks a higher form of spirituality and may even be atheist. These are the seekers in life that are hungry to unravel the mysteries of life. They question everything. They encourage their progeny to question everything. They see life as an ongoing lesson. Perhaps the atheist see it ultimately as final, but the spiritualists see life in a more infinite way. Mostly to learn in this life to become more enlightened and prepared for the next in whatever context they see it.

My this is serious and deep thinking here! The reason for life? Hum............to make a difference in others lives. To grow and to mature.To experience what life has to offer. To enjoy. To experience love, hate, sorrow, happiness.To learn the differences in peoples and to learn to accept one-another in spite of those differences.To tell others about the love of God.

The reason for Life is to experience the Physical Body,? for Humanity to become, in Spirit and in Mind the Son's of God. There are 5 senses we can use to achieved such a task, to experience a higher level of consciousness as well than a higher level of awareness and then to become into reason. you are in your way Son God bless you in the name Jesus. Amen, take control of your 5 senses, and become teach your senses to see and perceived the true, as God will give it to you, accustom then to the good things they can experience in life. there is a reward in the end of the road. and that reward we call it reason.

Some say spirits are lined up in the spirit world to get in our
world in order to overcome things like false pride, self-righteousness, and hypocrisy. Why our world? Because the nature of a material body makes our world one of the hardest to do that in. The struggle makes us stronger in the long run!

NO particular reason at all.... HOWEVER the most important responsibility of all people is to respect the boundaries of others. If they do so they should be locked up... 3rd time they should be terminated.

There is no ultimate reason for anything, unless you're talking about strict causal effects, i.e. you were born because your parents had sex.
The only purpose to life is that which you give your own.

For there to be a reason, there has to be an intelligent creator. Since there was no creator of life, there is no reason for life. However, since we are alive and aware of that fact, we may choose to give our lives meaning.

We are here to learn about life, learn that there is suffering and to do our best to reduce the suffering of others by our own good work. "Love your neighbour as yourself," in order to make a difference in the lives of others.

Life is eternal. The ultimate reason is the will of God.
