like i have answered earlier that god is a force which cannot be explained......it is the force which is moving everything and philosophers and early thinkers named it god......why were we born i cannot answer and neither there is any answer in all the holy books as they keep on contradicting themselves.....but i know that while here we can do much to make this earth a better and beautiful planet instead of fighting among ourselves as to which religion is better and other and other minor things which if we think about have no meaning......they are childish.....why we die......the best explanation is that the body tires and stops working just as a machine stops working after some years......there are many reasons and explanations but i can not understand them and fathom their meaning.......hope you will have better luck then me

Here is my opinion though:
We are born because the human race has the will to survive. All organisms have the drive to reproduce and pass down their genetic code.
Purpose of life? Who knows. But for me, I would say contribute to the
advancement of the human race.
God is supposedly the beginning and the end. However, in my opinion as a Deist, God created the universe indirectly. He didn't not create mankind out of dirt as Abrahamic scripture claims...God created natural laws such as science....and let the process of evolution over billions of years result in lifeforms such as mankind. Nor are we special...we are certainly not made in the image of God.
Of course, this is my opinion. The Abrahamic scriptures claim to know the will of God...I do not.

You need a basic understanding of biology to understand birth and death. Your purpose in life is something you make up as you go along. Man created the concept of gods thousands of years ago to explain the things that are now well understood by science. Mans' ego has always been such that when asked about something beyond his comprehension, it's easier to say "god did it" than "I don't know"

the purpose of life is to work the works of God ... and u cant think of God in 3 dimensional terms of a starting point on a timeline .. ur only thinking from ur perspective on earth in a 24 hour day as the earth rotates around the sun in a year ... God is timeless .. the beginning and the end.

the only purpose of life is to live, we are born and we die because it is nature's way, all species do, that is why death is "the great equalizer"
living things were created because an asteroid from the outer bands of the milky way galaxy hit our planet and deposited all of the necessary means for life to evolve, and it did.
god is created by humans alone, just like Zeus, Hera, and Poseidon. it is all mythology.

Sorry, there are no gods, and no inherent purpose - make your own.
We're born because that's how biology works; we die for the same reason (without death, we couldn't have evolved). Do a little reading on basic biology (maybe Dawkins' books?)

We are born to know, love and serve the Living God. We did so that we can spend eternity with Him. God was never created He always was.

God created us. we were created for reasons and purposes and we find those reasons and purposes out in our own lives. and death is a price for living. and its simple God created God he created him ownself. hes been here 100s or 900s billions or trillions or zillions of years.

Let there be Light
Therefore in the whole of Creation there are only the after-effects of this more or less strong motion, which form, mature, maintain and disintegrate everything

this gets asked 50 times a day here.
get a pencil and jot this down:
God is Spirit, not human.
God was not created.
God always was.
God always will be.
That is a difficult concept for the human mind to grasp because humans are finite; they have a beginning and an end and tend to think all beings must be like them.
not so.
